This question is for anyone who has done limb lengthening to become 5'8+ or is already at that height.

Do you feel desirable at this height?

5’8 as a man isn’t desirable anywhere in the world.

At 5'8 and with shoes that make you 4cm taller, with a toned physique, a chin and a masculine look, I think you can have a satisfying love life. It should not be overlooked that attitude is very important. I am now 5'8 but I want to reach 5'11 🙏🏼 if all goes well in July of next year.

You'd be surprised. I'm 5 8.5- 5 9 (when I stretch and hang more consistently) and that's in the mornings, so realistically 5 8 most of the time. With solid footwear (not lifts) being lean and muscular, and a solid haircut/grooming and confidence + posture, I do just fine. Occasionally ill get turned down by superficial types, but I've had plenty of girlfriends(they just live in another town, you don't know them lol). But being real, it doesn't matter much. I've considered LL for other reasons, but that isn't relevant to the discussion. My point is: before doing any LL, Hit the gym, groom yourself, grow your genuine confidence, and develop social skills. You might be surprised what you find. I just saw a 5 5 or 5 6 guy the other day with a 5 9-5 11 girl (didn't get to judge exactly) who was cute as hell and seemed genuinely happy talking with him

Typical normie fallacy that you can only do one thing at once.

You need to be doing all that AND get taller, just like you need to both shower and brush your teeth, you don't get to pick one or the other.

Also, 'confidence' is a result of positive social feedback which is hard to come by as a manlet, and 'social skills' have a large genetic component too. Irrespective, even if you do believe such things can be 'improved' (which I don't, but it's not relevant really), then you'd STILL be better off doing that AND gaining some height.

I'm 1.74 and to be honest I haven't faced any problem with girls. I'm not a bad looking guy, I'm fit, and I have had several relationships until I got married. I'm 35, my head is full of hair and I overall I"m decent looking. So... I must say I still feel that strange emptiness or disncomfort with my appearence and height. I try to use boots with high soles and nobody notice that Im short. So the things are in your head mostly.

5.8 is the border for a normal dating life, at least in the 90% of world.
Of course, the taller you are than that, the best, but still a good looking or with built body 5.8 man will have more success than an ugly 6ft one. That won't happen most of the times if you are less than 5.7.

So 5.8 is where the height is not a problem, at least major one, and women will see.your other traits. Of course it is not enough to become a bemefit but still not a crucial drawback.

It depends of the country.
In Holland, Denmark and Norway you are short.
In the rest of Europe, US and Australia you are on the edge.
In SE Asia you are above average...

Anyhow, women likes tall men, no matter the country women belongs.
I travel between Europe and north-America and i felt myself short at 1.71m.
In SE Asia i felt ok overall, but every day l met other tall white guys... so same problem finally.

If you are not 6' tall you are not confident, even though you think you are handsome ... period !

But, if you have no money for surgery, buy these shoes special for dating:

The problem with them is that you must wear it in ALL the moments you are with your girl, including in the shower room !   How is your dating life if you're 5'8+ How is your dating life if you're 5'8+
