Hi I am 28, I'm 177, I'm average good as appearance (so girls outside my family say) since I did a maxillofacial surgery and rhinoplasty which helped me a lot. I was on the average ugly side before. And I'm an assumed average height which is 177 cm. I noticed that most average/pretty girls here are obsessed by height in a man. Many many times on dates they made some reference to me being short/not tall enough. I admit i used to go to girls met online so appearance is more important there maybe the first thing. Anyway even asking many girls about how their ideal man should be they always say the magic word "tall" usually first. "TALL attractive confident nice...". It's not a chance. I don't feel myself so short but even "not tall enough" to date pretty women. With my average/decent face I think that being on the average/tall side would give me that bonus which would make the difference.
I am introvert also and never had a gf so far. I think I should work much on my personality and be more open and funny. But still being tall would help me indirectly, because when you are tall world smiles to you a bit more. I'm not saying that tall people have an easy life, but an easier life. People have the attitude to associate height with power so they tend to respect more tall guys. This means tall guys get constantly these feedbacks which slowly build their confidence. Not to add the same fact that walking even only 10 cm over the heads of the other people gives you that feeling of being "superior".
I noticed that here the new average/good height is 182/183 cm at least. And that is what would be enough for me. I would be as tall as di caprio for example (not as attractive of course) and I have never heard anyone saying that didn't caprio is not tall enough.
I am not rich, I would like to spend the least possible. Also I would accept even 3 cm instead than 5 if that meant less money spent.
Your main focus should be a quality doctor over how cheap the surgery can be. There are many cheap doctors that will ruin your legs. Dr Parihar is a reputable doctor that would be on the more economic price but you will defiantly need to save a lot of money still for the whole procedure. There is also the commitment because you will be semi crippledetached for a couple of months.

His main focus should be a shrink, not a LL doctor.

Yup. Especially that he already is into plastic surgery.
I live in Emilia Romagna which is in the taller part of Italy. The average is not 183... Not even 180. You are perfectly average in Italy and even taller than the average in the south.
About height, yeah... I know that in Italy they have that phrase "Height is half the beauty-Altezza mezza belezza", but still, at your height you have no disadvantage what so ever... Also, who cares about what women find ideal? Of course they are going to find a tall, handsome, confident and rich guy as ideal... For me, Ornella Muti (when she was young) is the ideal women but I still date women far less pretty than her. If I, as an immigrant, 171 tall guy have no problem with women here, so shouldnt you.
Your problem is without doubt psycological and not appearance related.. The fact that you did past plastic surgeries also reinforce that you are not mentally ok
Hey, I wonder if your problem isn't more a lack of confidence. You say you've never had a girlfriend. I am 5'8, in an area of the world that is quite a bit taller than Italy (and also I live in a student population where the average male height is probably closer to 6 ft than 5'10) and I don't have a (big) problem, and I'm certainly not good looking or in great shape physically.
I have a 6'3 friend who has also never had a girlfriend and he is all around much more attractive than me. I have a 5'6 friend (granted, very good looks, charismatic, well dressed etc.) who has been with a lot (really a lot) of beautiful and attractive women. The big difference is the 5'6 guy has charisma and good social skills.
Do you know that self-confidence can change people's perception of your height by a couple of inches? I forget where I read this (it was in some article on the internet), but I think it is true. I've had both low self esteem and high self esteem in my life, and both times I've been asked if my height is 5'10 or 5'6. Posture matters too.
I woudln´t recomend this surgery to you, since it´s probably something mentally that has nothing to do with your physical appearance. Another plastic surgery won´t help you, better safe the money and invest it in some coaching or some decent clothing.
If he wants to get limb lengthening at his height it shouldn't be anyones concern. We are all insecure about ourselves no matter what you may say. There are plenty of short people and below average height people who live happy and great lives. The fact that some of you are telling him to see a shrink is irony, obviously he doesn't need LL but if he wants to do it and wants answers who are WE out of all people to judge the route he's taking?

Because than this forum will start to look like a pro anorexic forum.
"Hi! I am a 168cm tall girl and I weigh 38kgs. I feel that a couple of kgs less would make me perfect. Can anyone tell me what's the easiest method to lose weight fast? I tried sticking a finger in my mouth to vomit but it helped me with only losing a couple hundreds of grams. I heard about some diet pills. What would anyone here reccomend?"
dont do LL you want it for all the wrong reasons.Whoever is going to love you is gonna love you for you not because your a few cm taller and if they do then i wouldnt be attracted to that person at all. 177 cm is not bad at all. it's a dateable height and women are either as tall as you or shorter. only 10% of women here in usa are taller than 5'7. put on some lifts and your 5'10. if i was naturally 5'8 i wouldn't even consider this surgery. yes, you wont be some hunk 6'4 250 lbs beast and every woman will probably desire you 100x more if u were but the genetics just aren't on our side my friend. we do LL for internal happiness not to make someone else see us as more desirable.
