Hello! I have just measured. 7.5cm long. I sort of knew, my brother used to call me Concordia. He is impressively lacking in self awareness, his nose puts mine in the shade (it literally could, though mine could
also be a sundial)
My dad’s is 8cm, he could be a world record holder tbh, he used to get into fights about it (think Cyrano de Bergerac but just punching people in beer gardens instead of poetry under balconies).
I sometimes get a bit dismayed when I’m caught in profile in photos simply because I look like if I turn too fast I could easily stab someone in the eye. I can turn lights off with it, and turn the pages of a book. It was great when I was bfing.
I don’t know whether it’s despite or because of the Nose, but I’ve also met lots of people throughout my life who’ve told me I’m striking, distinguished, elegant, all that crap. Someone once told me it makes me look clever. But honestly, it’s not beautiful, you want to see this fucking undeniably huge nose of mine. I comfort myself it’s now all that’s holding my face up, like those triangular supports they put up on the facades of listed buildings while they work behind them 😂
I have always wished I had a more standard facial construction, so I can understand how you feel. It’s all jokes, but what you’re describing isn’t helping you right now. You don’t need fixing, I absolutely promise you, and I know without seeing you that your nose is not making you look disgusting or anything of the sort. Noses don’t make people ugly, they’re just one part of your shell, the luck of the cosmic draw - in fact, I’ve just realised I am drawn to people with strong noses.
But how you feel is important, of course it is. Has this sort of urgent need to have it fixed come on suddenly? Has anything else been changing about your appearance or in your life more generally?
