should u tell friends and family?
not necessary, if u used ur own money and energy.. why should they know?
should u tell the priest during confession?
not necessary, there is nothing wrong about LL. actually u should read the bible to be fully sure. (this was for lolz)
should u tell wife if married?
yes, if u end up with problems later in life she has to help u, so she should know.
should u tell current gf?
not necessary, there is no guarantee of lifelong togetherness any way
should u tell future wife?
yes, because she has accepted ur after LL height and not before LL height. what if u have short children?
imagine u marry someone 5foot3 and then find out she was 5foot. from 'almost average' to well below average. wont u worry about short children?
if u think ur wife WILL NOT mind LL then u can tell her, no problem. if u think she WILL mind LL then also should u tell her. is that not correct?
be honest and happy with urself and ur decision it will all work out.
Imho better to not tell anyone unless impossible to avoid like your family.
You will make people aware and will start to look constantly at your proportions and once someone outside of your family knows it, everyone is going to know.
People in general are really ignorant and dumb, especially women, most people will just understand: “He broke both of his legs for few cm lololol” without understanding the actually surgery and is relatively safe. In general in life you want to not tell people much about you even people really close, they will not be close friends forever and most of the times the never bern anyway.
Good question... who should you tell..? apart from my family and my doctor.. I will not tell anyone
Just don't tell your GF 
I was with her for 4 years so I told her obviously but now that i'm not with her anymore, there's always a chance she can use it against me which is pretty damn embarrassing.
So yeah, unless you're married then don't tell your friends or gf because let's be real, the chances of you having a friend for life are like 0.1% when you're not friends anymore, it's the first thing anyone would use against you.
'Oh you know my ex/friend he went and got his legs lengthened for $50 000+'
I'm personally not going to tell anyone about the surgery. Simply because short men attempting to better themselves in any way is frowned upon. With this surgery you'll escape the short man category and all the social consequences that arise from it. This will incur jealousy and people will view you as decietful as many know they can't experience a significant leap in their social status .If not ,people will think you're crazy,so will probably avoid you afterwards lol.
Make sure you only have kids with a girl of above average height.From my experience taller girls are a lot more lenient about height than shorter women-that's my plan anyway. I think many here would attempt to ensure that their children don't experience the effects of being short.The irony is the discriminated becoming the discriminator.
From what I've seen , height is like a genetic roulette anyway,so long as your male children end up near average height then it's no longer a problem.
guys read this 10 times
"if u think ur wife WILL NOT mind LL then u can tell her, no problem. if u think she WILL mind LL then also SHOULD u tell her. is that not correct?"
pls argue logically. if u are a really short guy like 5foot4 or 5foot5 and then reach 5foot7 then u will look very very different. if ur wife married u after meeting u at 5foot7 she may have thought "ok he is short but not that short, so its ok". but she doesnt know u did LL.
yes its risky to tell. lets say u tell ur fiancee and she leaves u and even tells her close friends. ur secret is now lost and wedding broken.
BUUUUUUUT, lets say u get married without telling her. now u are with someone who is going leave u if she finds out about ur LL. do u want that? what a crppy relationship that will be.
and marrying a tall girl doesnt give u tall children for sure! u could have an exact replica of ur self pre LL.
i am saying love urself, love ur decision, respect ur decision take pride in ur decision. tell ur future wife. it is the right thing to do. dont remain an insecure person.

most women prefer guys taller than them. taller girls prefer men taller than them, so.... even taller.
u have no data on ur point. u are delusional about this.

there is strong association between parents height and childrens height. in fact EVERYTHING. in terms of intelligence, looks, mental personality, everything comes from parents. it is NOT a lottery. there are exceptions in everything but there is an association.

agree with u 100 %.
but wife is family 
and it is ur responsibility to make her understand.
imagine ur wife has done a bunch of simpler cosmetic surgeries like nose job and some other face surgery. she looks ok, but u would NOT have liked her OLD self before these surgeries either. how do u feel if u find out later? most cosmetic surgeries can be considered "safe" if u count LL as "safe", so no argument there.

Of course women want men taller than them where did I say otherwise?
Statistics on height do come into play. People being height matched at the extreme ends if height become increasingly unlikely. From what I've seen about marriage partners and height this,the height difference between partners reflects the distribution in human height.
And yes you're right since there is a large genetic component in regards to everything about a person plus a degree of chance depending on how alleles combine.
Where did I say otherwise? The many in which alleles can mix can be a best case scenario or a worst case scenario.
Think of genetic diseases where it just so happens one child inherits two faulty alleles so instead of being a carrier the genes manifest. Of course height inheritance is far more complex and is most likely controlled by many genes but you get the point.
That's why I encourage those who do worry about the height of their children to only have children with women of above average height.
By tall I mean a women 5ft 5 and upwards .Most men here after surgery will be significantly taller than the vast majority of women here after surgery .
agree with u on this 100 %
but u are digressing.
lets say u are 5foot3 get LL and become 5foot6. u marry a 5foot5 girl who likes u and doesnt mind ur "new" height. u have done ur best for ur future children.
but if u get caught about LL how will u explain to ur wife?
"look honey, our childrens height is unpredictable anyway so i may not be responsible for it after all. also my new height is permanent and i will always be taller than u. i didnt tell u about LL before our wedding because u didnt ask. i always thought it was about what is on the inside and not physical attributes.
i would have married u even if u were 5foot2. errr scratch that. so yeah why is it a big deal honey?"
