No but artritis due to poor posture and feet and tibia tendons being overused you know that feeling. Just that in my case it don't heal until next time so after 5 min of walking the acid starts to burn in my legs. Brutal.

Being short sucks. I know the feeling. Most of the time you blame your rotten luck with girls, jobs, and social interaction due to your height.

In my case I got an extra discrimination.  I'm short (was) and people confused me with illegal immigrants from south America.  I have no problem with the immigrants,  they work harder than any person in America while earning next to nothing. I hate the way they look at me, as if I just jumped the fence yesterday.  People are cruel, one of my biggest reason for LL is is disappear in the crowd and not stick out like a sore thumb.

It's easier to change yourself than spending your whole life trying to make people change their perception.

Quote from: mediocre on March 06, 2014, 11:43:17 PMAnybody wearing lifts can report chronic pain in their ankles?


I used lifts for more than 3 years and never had any pain in the ankles after I got use to them.
I guess is the same as using high heels but with a lot more support. I mean women use them every single day.

And after my day was finished I went to judo training and pretty much spent all my day on my toes.

what I can say thou, is that if you want to do LL stop using them, because your muscles get super tight and strong, and is harder to get your feet at 90%, and for lengthening your tibias you need your calfs muscles to be super flexible and relax. Or you will be fighting with ballerina from day one.

Quote from: TheRisingShorty on February 16, 2014, 11:35:21 AMHaven't had a girlfriend since finishing high school because I am not confident enough. Several girls were interested in me but I rejected them due to being scared that they will find out my true height if I have my shoes off.


I had to laugh at this part because I sort of relate with wearing lifts.  When I first meet a girl and we have to take off our shoes, I always rush to be in a sitting position.  If we ever have to stand together or walk around, I just tippie toe and stay close because the chances she look down are so slim. xD

Once we have sex, I don't care anymore.  She finds out I wear lifts, laughs, but hey we're already in an intimate relationship, and I've never been dumped because they found out I wear lifts, I mean most girls become clingier once they allow you to sleep with them.  However, I have a feeling that if she found out BEFORE we had sex.... Well I would never had sex in the first place and she would have just dumped me. xD

I relate to you and agree with you up to before your last sentence.  I don't think they would have necesarily dumped u if they found out before sex, some of them maybe. I think it would depended on how you reacted and what you have said.I also remember going to people's houses and if I was wearing my super 4.25inches shoes I would come up with a excuse and just left. Pretty embarasing moments!!

Hello. I'm new here.  Guys who are under 165 cm, please share your experience.

My current height is 164cm and my goal is 172-174cm.
I always feel low self confidence when in public because I think I'm too short for a man. Both my younger brothers are 172cm and 175cm.  Guys who are under 165 cm, please share your experience.

So I'm planning to do LL in the next five years or less. I'm 25 years old.
