Hi. My name is Violet and I am 22 years old. I have an 8mm overjet, narrow palate, and an incompetent lip. I look terrible and I don't see any way to resolve these issues. I've resigned myself to a life of misery because I cannot imagine doing half the things that I want to do while looking like this. I've never had a boyfriend, date, even a kiss. As far as I know, no one has ever been attracted to me. Lol.  ::)
I've been to several orthodontists and I've come to the conclusion that I "missed the boat." There are specific, time sensitive, procedures that could have helped. Alas, I am too old. Ancient by their standards.
I don't know why I am posting this. Probably because I don't have anyone else to talk to. Anyway, thanks for listening.  :D

You're not too old at all and all your problems can be solved. You need SARPE, yeah it's a bit of a procedure, but what's a few months out of the rest of your life? Please don't have teeth extracted to make room for any crowding. Have sarpe done. Then you just need jaw surgery. You're going to be fine, maybe even beautiful! And by the way you're pretty young. I was a virgin until my early twenties and I'm a guy (which is way way worse!). But it wasn't my looks preventing me it was my sense of self, confidence and becoming more of an interesting person. Since then, I've banged tons and tons of girls. You need to work on your inner self and your confidence by working hard on something and gaining a level of expertise in it. Also go to the gym and stay fit (that's all in your hands). And your jaw problems are easily solvable! Have faith and hope! Good luck!

Violet Im in the same boat. I also have narrow jaws as well. Find a surgeon and get sarpe as Lazlo said, or get an orthodontist to do it for you (but this on takes patience and lots of time) and then have jaw surgery to fix your problems. Its not the end of the world. Keep trying and dont give up!

Lazlo:

VioletA92:
@lazlo um, no. It wasn't me.  ::)
