Yes guys, it's gotten really bad... Anybody else feel this way or am I psychologically and mentally unstable at this point? To elaborate, thinking of going to the club gets me anxious. All the girls in heels, 6 foot guys, it's gotten to the point where I'm just avoiding these places because if I go I'm just going to be conducting height tests and comparing heights and not enjoying myself.

I can easily relate to this. This happened last year and it was my birthday. I avoided being in many group photos and when I was in a photo I would make sure no photo be uploaded on social media where I look short and all that. You're not alone and it's fairly common here with people on this forum I think.
I always avoid being in groups of people where I would look significantly short. Being short sure sucks as hell especially at places like weddings, parties where girls are likely to be in high heels. The beta feeling is just sooo depressing.
It's for events like these I bought a pair of 5.2 inch elevator shoes (boots) from tallmenshoes and they are extremely uncomfortable to walk in. So next I bought a pair of 4 inch patent leather dress shoes which are a bit more comfortable and do-able. But it should be noted the actual height gain these shoes give are 1 inch less than advertised, I read from expert review.

Oh man I fking hate photos. It's gotten so bad for me that I can't leave my house without either wearing Airmax 90's or timberland boots.. I cannot wear flat shoes. Hopefully in 1-2 years I can just hit average height (177cm) and live in peace.

Sometimes the depression gets so bad when you come back home from university or party feeling all trash and beta, you sometimes wish life isn't even worth living right now and you might just die from a depression heart attack or something any moment. This was before when I sought after limb lengthening as a safe resort/ haven. Even now, the depression is pretty severe when I come back home from university sometimes and feel like crying. (Seeing 90% of the attractive taller than me girls with tall guys in groups, walking past through them in the corridor - Incredibly painful).
For the past 2 years, rarely have I ever been outside without my 2 inch insoles in my high top sneakers. I'm 23 as of now and I've been conducting heights tests and comparisons ever since I was in high school at 16 years old.
-
That is pretty common. I will not see my own family for this reason, but mainly for other reasons. I cant go for this surgery before university, so I will live unhappy for some more years. I would say that I am a lonely person, not just because height, I enjoy being alone.

Where are you guys from that you feel extremely short at 169-171?

I'm trying a new secret weapon now. I have timberland boots which give me ~1.5 inches. I bought 2 inch lifts so I'm going to combine the boots with the lifts to get 3.5 inches and see how it is. If it all goes to plan I will be at 5'11.

I'm from Canada. With my boots I'm ~5'9. I think my problem is that I just focus so much on people who are taller than me and ignore the people that I am TALLER then. It's become a vicious circle. I have friends who are 5'8 who seem so happy and don't even pay attention to their height (I might be wrong) and then there is me who is feels miserable.

I'm from Canada, it's not that bad when around general public in malls or restaurant with my 2 inch lifts but where the young generation is at i.e. University, parties e.t.c. things start going bad, really bad..

I was in toronto half a year ago. I am also 171. I felt better there. Also had success with women in parties and tinder. You canadians are pretty short on average. Its in your head

What part of Canada if you don't mind me asking? I'm from QC btw.
The conducting height experiments though, don't you feel it consumes so much energy out of you? I just can't have a good time because I keep doing this everywhere I go (metro, bus, parties, mall, grocery shop). It's never been this bad but lately it's gotten out of control for me.

Unfortunately some of us here are trapped in our own heads. I can be average Canadian height with my boots but I feel 'fake' when I wear them. It just doesn't do it for me.

Yea, really energy consuming without a doubt to the point I feel all relaxed when I finally sit down. And I have had this symptom since years be it almost everywhere I go (even in the elevator lol). I live in Ontario, GTA area. Again it's not really that bad around general public but significantly noticeable in area where people are around my age. 5'8 ain't bad at all but 5'6 - 1/2 sure sucks big time.

I am not telling you not to do the surgery. Just that till you do it, you dont need to suffer... There is a huge difference between wanting to be taller than suffering for not being taller. Dont fear to feel good (regardless of height) because you fear that you will give up on wanting to do LL. Anyway, if you walk around 177-179, you are taller than the average canadian

That struck a few chords in me. Very good point.
-
I think we should just enjoy our lives without focusing too much on our height. Just bear in mind that you'll and are destined to get LL in a few years ==> peace of mind. It's only a matter of time...

Didn't you know the average height of the 'younger generation' is 6'5 ?
-
Please don't say "beta" it's a ridiculous term.

I can never take anyone who uses that term seriously... it's like you're basically playing yourself

Or "manlet", this always makes me wish I could rain down fire on everyone >:(
And to stay on topic: I also avoid going to the club or any other crowded places. It's not like I would miss out on anything, I wouldn't see more than the backs of other people anyway ::)
-
I always found it funny that the truly tall guys (6'0 - 6'3) never made it a point to call others short. Rather, it was always the taller short guys (5'6-5'8 ) who would call those below 5'6 manlet, little guy, etc.
Insecurity no doubt

Hmm...I think you're right about the really tall guys, but it's more the ones who are taller than 6'2 /190cm, at least where I live.
And it's rather the average guys (5'9 /180cm and up) who love to tell you how short you are, especially the not so close "friends".
My guess would be that it is because I am around and kinda "protect" the 170cm-guys from being called short, because I'm only 161cm and they always pick the shortest.

5'9 is 175. Not 180. 5'11 is 180.

Yea, I was lazy and used the Google converter and it showed me 180cm = 5,90ft and I read it as 5'9 :P

I hate that word so much.

Don't forget "midget" as well :D

That converter should be in ft and inches. Pretty unconventional to show results in ft measurement only. I always thought something about it was glitched until I noticed it lol. (Many, many people report incorrect measurements using that good for nothing converter)
-
So you think 7 cm more will make you taller than them?
-
They do make him taller...after all that's what cm's do. LOL.
-
Oh man you took the words out of my mouth haha.
Not to beat my own drum but I'm an attractive guy, but I lack confidence because of my height. Growing up, the only things girls would ever attack me about was my height and I guess it has stuck with me, and I bet there would be a number of us on this forum who could relate to my story! I know it's superficial but facts are facts and height does make a significant impact in how people perceive you. Example I have a couple of tall friends that are 6'2 average looking lads and you can definitely tell the difference when people talk to them compared to yourself.
-
Well I am only 5' 0.5" if that makes you feel any better, and I live in the US where heights are comparable to Canada...

Whats your height?

I can relate to this! For me the best thing was to go to countries of low height and become taller than the average. That boosted my self-confidence. In fact, it was this difference in confidence that I as well as people around me observed that made me want to do the surgery.

At new years club, I saw 6'2-6'3 girls with 3-4'' heels. They were significantly taller than my 5'11 friend who was wearing 1.5 inch shoes and was around 6'0.5. Two of them were standing in front of us in the line before entering, one of them turned around and first thing she ask my friend "Am I too tall for you?". My friend laughed and replied "Well you're wearing heels." I felt SO BAD and humiliated even with my 2 inch lifts and kept a fair distance away from them. I was surprised that it was the first thing they ask.
Later inside, I saw quite a bit of girls at that same height range. It wasn't really as fun a new years celebration with this height neurosis, but was nevertheless a decent night out.
-
Women who are 6'2-6'3 are an absolute unicorn everywhere in the world, probably less than 1% of women are that tall. So that's a crazy exception right there.

Wearing heels, they were 6'2-6'3. Their barefoot height was somewhere around 5'11
