Now, now, you two! ;-)
Question-asker: if you ~are~ the same young man who keeps posting this question, then please RELAX! Yes, you're normal! No, it doesn't grow forever! Yes, girls will like you anyway!
Think about it: have you ever seen a bear-man walking the streets, or on the beach, or at the pool? Some guy who looks like he has a pelt or a woolly blanket all over his body? Most of us have. It's perfectly within the normal range of human variation to have a lot of body hair. It's fine. No one turns into a werewolf because they grow a lot of body hair.
If you've posted this question already, then you need to either accept that you're OK, or go and talk to a doctor, who can confirm in person what we say in text.
(To 'eyes' and 'soul' from a moderator: please don't waste board space with discussions between yourselves. You can mail each other personally, if need be. Thanks.)

This has got to be the forth time at least he has posted this, check it out. He has gotten all kinds of wonderful advice and reassurances but just keeps coming back. What more can be done for him?

Some men are just hairier than others, I'm afraid! If you're a a dark person, your hair tends to be thicker and more obvious but trust me, it will stop growing, you won't turn into a gorilla! Some men would kill for a hairy body, as some women just love it!
Don't be worried about this, make the best if it. It will stop growing, it just looks weird now because it's so different to what your body was like in the past. The ladies will be falling over themselves to get to you when they see that hairy chest! On the other hand, if you really don't like it, get it all waxed off!
