I am a bit saddened and disturbed by the post "Height is the most important thing when dating girls" (because so many people actually believe this), so much so that I am making a counter-post.

First I want to say that I'm actually starting to think myself out of height neurosis (I thought myself into it, so I'm fighting to think myself out of it. Doing an "ok" job).

Anyway..... The main issue I have with this post is the failure to make the distinction between attraction and dating. When a girls falls for you (which I consider "dating"), she will care little about you being tall (as long as you are an inch or two taller than her, which should leave most of us with a huge DATING pool). She will care more about your kindness, personality, intellect, smile, manners, and compatibility.

And like I've always said "I would love to be 5' 10", because any girls who only want a 6 footer are jackasses. being 5' 10" would a allow me to avoid such girls".

Would you guys want to date a girl who cared more about height than anything else? That's the true question.

I forgot to add something. I think many people have distorted ideas of what "height is important" means.

In a general sense, yes height is somewhat (maybe very) important in dating ---> "NewHeights, doesn't that mean I have to be 6' 2" otherwise girls won't date me?"...."Haha, no silly, it means that you have to be their height or taller. That's what most girls mean when they say "height is important""

why i say that is the most important thing?

you need to be at least as tall as the girl, if not in most cases you are excluded.
beauty is something individual, you could be ugly for one girl and beautifull for another, but if you are shorter than those girls you will be almost always rejected , because the thinking that the girl needs to be smaller than the boy is something universal.

Everything is important. Facial aesthetics, body, height, money and personality/character.

All of those factors can also be requirements. There are girls that won't date a fat guy, a deadbeat, a dunce, an ugly dude or a short guy. If you're tall but poor then you're out, if you're short but handsome then you're out, if you're tall & handsome but fat and poor then you're out, etc. The factors can also shift; if you've got a busted up face then being 6'2" can make you equivalent to an average looking 5'9" guy. Also there is different requirements for short-term and long-term intensions; a girl isn't going to care if you're unemployed if she's just looking for a ONS or one-week stand.

I hope those that think that height is the most important thing doesn't pass the psychological test for CLL because they will be very disappointed after getting the height.

Also I wanted to point out that every girl I've ever dated have been the type that were only looking for tall guys (6ft+).

w1988 what is your motivation to do CLL?

Many reasons, I'm figuring out if I shouldn't mention some of them when the doc asks me.

Main reason is to fit better socially and in business, 5'6" is unfortunately just short enough to stand out (in a bad way) and if I was 5'9" I wouldn't have even considered CLL. I know I might sound boastful but I do have very good facial aesthetics and I dislike how my height can sometimes write that off. Third reason is that I'm a bit of a fashionisto and being 5'6" makes it difficult to look good; I have to get every pair of pants and blazers to be shorted up by a tailor even after buying them in short. I know that after CLL I'll still have to get the blazers shortened but that will actually make me look taller. Fourth is to get rid of some past regret; when I was growing up I avoided all physical activity, I was the type that begged my parents for a note to get out of PE and even got doctors to give notes to get me out of mile runs — I'm convinced that if I was physically active like everyone else then I would have got those extra 3 inches. Actually when I was a toddler the doctor said that I should be 6'1" so that also adds to my belief! Fifth reason is to perhaps do even better with attraction, but I'm looking at any gains to be from increased confidence rather than actually being taller.

Height is not the problem if you cant be sucesfull in busines. Lots of short mans are. Intelligence and creativity are. So dont expect this to get better when you do CLL.
you are saying that your height write off your facial asthetics and you would do better with atraction  so definetly you know that height is a really important think to atract womans.
another thing is because  you need to short up your trousers haha thats a good one bro. Its a really important thing in life.
The last is because your doctor told you that you should be 6'1?

Hope people that thinks like that doesnt do CLL because they will regret

I think:

1. Height is the most important thing when you create a first impression with a guy or a girl, boss or colleague. Beyond that, personality counts. Facial aesthetics come into play. Confidence matters.

2. Height might not be the most important thing during a first-impression for SOME people, guys and girls. They might be watching out for, for instance, social signs that you are confident/not confident, etc.

I don't think it is so easy to regret doing LL insofar as you really want the height (and it has been a persistent desire for some time),  and you do not have BDD (eg, I am six feet and I want to be 200 cm tall). People with BDD, they never get enough, 10 cm?  No its not enough. Lengthen femurs10 cm. Then? Arm lengthening, penis lengthening, clavicle lengthening. Finally? Digit lengthening.
