dude speaking. in eight days, I turn 20 years old. I just got braces on last week. Obviously, I am aware of the consequences. My teeth are not atrocious but I was getting judged on the crookedness. I am just wondering if any of you have success stories about braces or how I should go about approaching them when interacting with attractive women? Clearly I am now at an incredible disadvantage for what should be two years.. but I am looking forward to age 22 and beyond with power teeth.

(why didn't I get it before? because I was fucking stupid. yes, it's more romantic to say that I couldn't afford them and am barely scraping by to place these suckers on my teeth, but in reality I felt I was above braces. I was wrong.)
