Hi Microtia,

Can't help you with your request - but I would suggest not focusing on your ears and just going out.. being yourself.. and meeting a nice girl that looks at you for the person you are - and not for what your ears are.

You will be surprised how many nice girls are outthere - once you open up and let other people open up to get to know them better.

Some people can't walk.. some can't talk.. some can't hear.. see.. this and that and a ton of other things.. yet they still are who they are.. no matter what their physical appearance currently may be.

Wishing you all the best,
TDD

Well if your ears aren't drastically different it doesn't matter, and if they are then some people might have a problem but it shouldn't affect you.

I know a girl that lost half her ear in an accident and she wears a prosthetic device to make her ear look complete. When I found out I was shocked but the people that told me were laughing and saying "ewww gross," when it didn't bother me at all. Looks aren't that important. I don't know if this is good advice but to me girls seem to go for someone with confidence. You don't seem to have much of that at the moment so maybe you just need to get out more to be more confident with who you are.

Good luck.

For those wondering, here's an article on microtia:

And I found this group; maybe they have members from Chicago...

quote:EAR (Ear Anomalies Reconstructive - the microtia/atresia support group)
Betsy Old (201-761-5438)
Jack Gross (212-724-1224) 72 Durand Road
Maplewood, NJ 07040

Betsy and Jack each have a child born with microtia and atresia (microtia refers to smallness of the external ear and atresia refers to absence or closure of the ear canals.) They operate the group out of Betsy's home. Membership includes families from around the world. EAR sponsors conferences which includes presentations by well known experts in issues related tomicrotia/ atresia.
