I read from the beginning. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your fingers. Do you know that there are other people out there with more serious issues than your fingers? Some actually have deformities and yet, they find a way to accept it the way they are and these people are actually living their lives rather than worry about their fingers!

 

Get over it. It's not even bad!

middle finger is about 3 inches, pinky 2.3, measured on the bottom side from bottom crease to tip. forefinger 2.8. why?

Because, just as I suspected, they're only a little shorter than mine. I doubt that a casual observer would even notice the difference in our hands.

 

You know that this obsession is unhealthy, right?

I came to this thread to finally see those fingers.

 

 

Nothing abnormal about them.

 

If I thought there was something off about them, I'd honestly let you know.

Yes I do, my head just won't budge for some reason. I think it's because of all the comments and looks I have gotten. I would do anything to not have this obsession, believe me.

Mr Stumpy, if I may speak for all the women on this forum - NONE of them would not date you because of the size of your hands. However NONE of them would probably date you because you are obsessed and embarrassed about something so unimportant. It's incredibly unsexy that you are hung up on this silly issue, and your inability to listen to the many many women who have reassured you that they are fine shows you cannot or will not listen to people, and are determined to have it your way and consider yourself a poor freak.

 

I reckon I could pull more women than you with NO hands, because IT'S ALL ABOUT THE CONFIDENCE. Get it??

Mr. Collector reminded me of something.

 

A few years ago I use to take the three little boys I babysat to Boy Scouts once a week. One of the other boy's father had one arm completely missing but I was really attracted to this man. He was still VERY sexy.

 

Look Mr. Stumpy. I really think you should spend time with young men and women that come back from Iraq with missing limbs and defigured faces. People still love them. Their spouces are thankful they are still alive. They love them despite their so called "lacking qualities" and they love them for who they are now.

 

YOUR HANDS ARE PERFECTLY FINE. THey are actucally nice looking square palmed hands.

Someone just told me that I won't be able to keep women because of my hands... I'm not worried about not being able to get a first date. This is the exact issue I am worried about, that girls will not want anything to do with me AFTER the first date because of my short fingers... is this true? That is what I have been meaning to say all along... I don't think I can live like this...

 

Get help. Seriously. Make an appointment with a counselor today.

 

Sometimes I want to smack you upside your head, but that's probably more for my benefit than yours.

Man I'm dead serious... OpenGL just said I will not be able to keep women because of my short fingers. This is exactly what I have been worried about... I'm not worried about the first impression. I am freaked out cause I don't know how to react to girls having bigger fingers than me...

 

What OpenGL just said is what I have been fearing alllll this time... I haven't even tried and get a girl because I don't think I could handle her rejecting me after a while for having such small/stunted looking hands... this is killing me

 

I'll kill you if you don't make an appointment with a therapist today.

How are your feet? :love:

Webbed, I'm thinking.

I would never leave a guy because I couldn't handle short fingers. That's the silliest thing I've ever heard.

 

If you can open a door, you have good enough hands! :D

Gorilla, do you honestly think having really short fingers is not an issue at all? Because my growth was stunted during puberty from Prozac, so I literally do kind of have the child version of my hands...

 

You honetly don't see girls getting bothered over having bigger fingers (which is the entire hand in their eyes) than a guy? How could this not be an issue? Please be serious... This is my life

 

You're not going to get any assurances on this board that will be meaningful to you. How many people have told you that your hands are fine? A crapload. Do you believe any of them? No.

 

Call a therapist. Today.

 

And all this presupposes that you're not a remarkably persistent and in-character troll.

Mr. Stumpy, don't you listen to anyone? We have all begged you to get help. There are meds for this and it's easy to treat. I'm beginning to think that you're playing all of us for suckers. Now, exactly who told you this? Could it be that they were tired of reassuring you and finally just gave in and agreed with you? That's my take on the matter and it's a good guess b/c people on here have gotten tired of reassuring you and said similar things and you've always chosen to believe them rather than the ones who truly don't see anything wrong with your hands. I'm almost tempted to post a pic of mine so you'll feel better, but I doubt you'd pay any attn to it.

 

Also, if it was your hands that were the problem, you wouldn't even get the first date--if you get a first date with someone, your attractiveness isn't the issue. If you can't get a second one, it's because they picked up on something that is off in your head, or figure out they don't have enough in common with you, or one of many other reasons, but the way you look probably isn't the problem.

 

But please, please get help and check back with us here, because I fear that you're suicidal by the way you talk on here. I am seeking counseling myself right now due to my divorce issues, and I'm going to a university nearby and they will only charge me $5 a session. I'll be seeing a student, though a fairly advanced one, and that student will be overseen by experts, and I've heard good things about this service, so money won't be an issue for me. Maybe you live near a uni that has a similar program. Please don't kill yourself--how you going to explain to the Lord that you offed yourself because you couldn't live with His handiwork?

Total flashback; this post just brought it up...

 

I went to a store when I was about 14, and saw a guy with smallish that were webbed. He was checking out our purchase when I said, "Hey, I really like your hands!" and he mumbled a "um, thanks."

 

My mom got really mad at me when we went outside, and thought that I was being mean or making fun of him or something. But honestly, I really loved his hands and kind of wanted to touch them. I actually couldn't get the idea of holding his hand out of my head for a long time. Sometimes we secretly find the unusual to be very beautiful, so you should be proud of what you have if it's different.

 

I still remember his hands, and to me they were totally awesome. But I guess the difference between you and him is that your hands can pass as completely normal.

Im biting my tongue, the blood is squirting....temptation is bubbling over ....holy shyt...

 

Stumpy I beg you to stop....

I'm a girl. And I have the same size hands as you. I measured. Actually, your pinky is longer than mine. Don't stress about it...And who cares what OpenGL says, who the f**K are they to judge? If a girl is going to be anal about hands, then it would most likely be about cleanliness as opposed to size. As long as you know how to work those fingers, doll, you're gravy baby.

Didnt read the entire topic tbh, but your hands look normal to me.

Thats right Stumpy, work those half knuckle snausage midget fingers with the ladies!

You might want to seek a therapist. Your hands are totally normal. I was expecting nub fingers! If you've tried to KILL YOURSELF over ur HANDS you need some help.

 

He's been told that 1000 times in each of his threads. Thats why I just shifted to ridicule.

I think you might have body dysmorphia (because your hands are fine) but for some odd reason it manifests itself only in your attitude towards your hands. You should get that checked out with a therapist.

 

Also the amount you go on and on about this, you are going to drive a girl away if you bring it up like this with her as well....sorry to say this as i am not meaning to be rude, but it is incredibly annoying and repetitive and it will be a HUGE turn off for a girl if you constantly need to be reassured by her. The very fact your screen name is mr.stumpy is odd, like you are defining your entire life and self concept by your hands. Which is really odd and you definitely need a therapist to help you with this.

You are completely overreacting. Your fingers are perfectly fine. If anything (not that there is anything wrong with your nails), you can get a manicure which would be a definite positive for your hands rather than stressing over nothing.

 

Your fingers/hands are perfectly normal.
