I am not gonna go too much into what I do, but yes for the most part I can relax. But don't get me wrong, I have definitely been making less than I could be due to LL.
And yes my body/face are more of a draw, seeing as its usually clear I won't be spending money on them, and many don't know my financial status, car aside.
Have you ever done any other sort of cosmetic surgery? If it's OK with me asking this. You do not need to reply to this.
Nope, the only other thing remotely cosmetic was getting invisalign to fix minor misalignment.
Reading this thread just reminds me how much I wish I was handsome. Being ugly sucks. Being short and ugly sucks worse.
Good looking people truly have a completely different experience of life.
I can't disagree. When I was younger I wasn't particularly good looking, and really grew into my looks and the difference in how I was regarded was immense. The worlds a superficial place which has only become clearer after lengthening my legs with the ridiculous amount of comments on my height, and also the opening up about the importance of height in conversations now that I am tall.
I have to agree with PD's sentiments. It kinda makes me sad how superficial this world is sometimes, because there is more to a person than just their looks. When I was younger, I was always told I was "handsome" but I never believed it. I was always short, and a bit chubby as a kid. I got girls in college, but that was all random luck/drunken bar hookups. I had a girlfriend for half of my 20s, but it wasn't until my mid 20s when I started doing my hair a certain way, did Invisalign for my teeth, whiten my teeth, and really worked on my fitness did things get good. And after all that...I realized that my height was a huge hindrance.
Coming up to 5'8" from a little over 5'5" has made huge difference, even though I'm still not tall at all.
The difference between men and women...we as men don't care why girls like us, we just want them to like us. As such, we have to bust our asses in all facets of our life...our looks, career, education, personality/charm...the whole bit. Only then can you access a decent dating pool.

Hey man , how is your recovery going?
you didn't update long time ?
Well, I am doing pretty decently. I do think I will need the hardware removed for close to 100% though, which I am not too happy about. Gluts still need strength but leg size and power is really coming back. Harder to fill in the size on the legs now that they are ridiculously long, but its starting to show, at last.
Funny thing is I had someone from the local gym privately ask me if I did LL, and that he had been considering it for a long time. Only the second person to actually notice what I did, even though all my family members are joking about how I'm 6 feet tall now.

Huh, did you ask him how he could tell, also how tall was he?
Well, he goes to my gym so he saw me in bad shape when I got back. Then much taller when I stood up. I had told him I broke my legs when he asked before, so I think he did the math seeing as he was someone who already knew a lot about it. He was familiar with my pre op height.
He is around 5 5
