Quote from: SpeedDialer on October 30, 2021, 06:53:11 PMHow would you handle these questions?
1. I liked your old height better, it was perfect for me, why did you change?
A: It's not a downgrade, it's objectively speaking an upgrade and improves my body ratio. [I wouldn't even get to the "perfect for me" part in my response. That's how focused I would be on that this whole thing is something that has only to do with me and is for me]
2. Why did you keep this a secret from me?
A: I should have told you beforehand, but it would not have changed my mind.
I didn't want to give you a chance to interfere in this personal choice. A greater height is universally an attractive trait. It's not a tattoo which is subjective.
[With that question people are actually only mad because they weren't involved in the process, not because of the decision itself. So one should concede a bit here.]
3. Why did you risk your health? What if it affected your walking / able to do a job someday?
A: I only live once, so I want to maximize all key areas in my personal life, appearance and personal development. This is overall not considered a risky procedure.
And if things really turn bad, you don't have to take the responsibility for what I did to me.
4. Why aren't you focusing more on applying to X school, this will delay your application by a year?
A: I will retire early anyway at some point, I don't have to live by a set schedule like everyone else.
[Maybe you should just go all in into crypto for 2 month before this 4 year cycle ends in order to cash out free bucks. That will convince her. It's a no-brainer]
5. Do you have any other secrets? (yup, planning on hair transplant. Should I tell her?)
A: -
6. So you like taller girls/want to date someone else?
A: I don't have any intention to go for any other girl [answering the question, and leading forward to the actual matter, as if the question has no weight], and I want you to cooperate with me on this temporary situation. In a year this will be all in the past.
If GF pissed you did LL, then you do it again, what should you say to her?
I don't think you should try to get dumped. Tell her how you feel, pretty much exactly as you've told us. What I mean is, explain why you want this, then tell her that if it's too much for her then you'd like to know before the surgery so you can deal with the break up before undergoing the process, rather than having to deal with both. If she isn't an , she'll be honest and break it off, or at the very least, she won't dump you during LL.

I will tell her everything after I book the surgery and I will mentally prepare myself to be dumped
I wonder if I should try to get dumped before the surgery happens because I think it would be more difficult emotionally to get dumped during the middle surgery. I vaguely remember reading that certain drugs you take during the recovery cause depression or negative thoughts. On the other hand, there is an off chance she will still be with me anyway.
What do you think? Should I try intentionally to get dumped before the surgery starts?
Just DON'T DO IT (LL) and start real dating right now!
Please check the today's zaozari post, his 4th in the topic with link below.
Don't risk your health, body function and waste money and time if you are 5"8....

Please, don't troll the forums.
If you don't like cosmetic limb lengthening, just don't do it.
Don't try to convince us about the convenience or not of CLL, because your point of view is only valid for you, other people can have other feelings (which they are also OK), and maybe they prefer to be taller because they like that idea.
I want to do LL. I am very very short.
But I feel this forum as a community and if I see that a lot of us who want LL because of girls, I feel obliged to share information like this in the relevant places . To share positive thinking (that girls seem not liking "giants"), and to make us all think (myself included). It's relevant here to know what girls want, in this thread it was even the very question posed. Each one is free to decide but LL is dangerous, expensive and costs time (it's my logic opinion and I have right to have it). In this case maybe the girl even breaks up.
If some forum's mates feel reassured and even give up that is their choice, not mine. Is LL not dangerous? Not expensive? Sone people like Unicorn got financially ruined and crippled. We should have all the facts available before deciding. But LL is their (each other) decision. If you want to go ahead ignoring everythin, not putting the right questions to doctors, not preparing for complication surgeries, etc., , go ahead, you surely will find surgeons that will promise you 20 cm more (great, no?!) and others, like Paley that seem even not care about the problems with many people with Stryde.
But instead of wishing to silence me, why don't you find more positive contributions to the forum?
Everything has a risk, for example, I do not ride motorbikes, I prefer to "spend" that risk in a CLL surgery, because I prefer to be tall rather than riding a motorbike (it was just a example).
Don't tell other people what to do with their bodies, maybe you don't understand why a 5'8'' get this surgery, but... that person has his / her own reasons to do that. This is about our feelings, not about what other people think about our statures. Maybe some people like 5'8'', but I don't, so I would like to have this surgery done some day.
It's ok.
But I am not telling people what to do. When I write "please" or "don't do it!!" it is either an ironic, encouraging, hyperbole or a jokking order for them to do, I think everybody understands that.
Oh, the irony!
I'm sorry. 
Yes , ironic, optimistic and "provocative" in the good meaning of the word. I don't have the ambition to command adult's opinion about their own matters. And I respect your option as everybody's else.
But when I know those things and "really" being short like me, not only in my opinion but also in all others' as well as doctors, anthropologists, etc, as standardised by science and health systems (2,3% shortest of the population and same sex or more than 2 standard deviations from the average), of course I think it is useful, I find it interesting to everybody here, as maybe around half of us want LL because of girls (directly or indirectly), more dominant, etc.
Don't read if you don't like.
