Hi all,

I've discovered old forum  several years ago while in school and was interested in LL but never had the time nor money. I finished school, got a great job, and the thoughts about LL has resurfaced. I am from the Indian subcontinent, but born and raised in the States. I am 27 and 5'1". Now that I'm finished with school, its within our culture to look for someone to get married to. Most girls of our culture are looking for guys that are 5'7" or taller (even though their average height is 5'2"). I've had in-person relationships in the past (both taller and believe-it-or-not, shorter), but I met a girl online who seemed amazing, until the height question popped up and it went down hill from there, which rejuvenated my desire for LL. I see that a lot of guys start LL at 5'4"-5'7", yet I would LOVE to be that height at the end of the agonizing LL. In order to obtain the desired height of 5'7", or a gain of 15cm, I would need to complete two surgeries with recovery in the 3+ year range rather than 1-2 like most folks here. With that being said, would LL even be worth it in my situation? I see a lot of people on old forum  simply obsessed with height and LL. I would love to do it, but I am already a confident and successful guy without it. At the end of LL, I would STILL be shorter than the average guy and just taller than the average girl. So with that being said, would it even be worth it?

Thanks in advance!
