Skin 1/2'' overgrown my fingernails! Help!?

My girlfriend is creeped out by my "frog fingers". She says she needs to push the skin back on my fingernails about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch.

Visibly, only half my fingernail is exposed, but i can see the other halfs shape which is almost to the knuckle. I can see no cuticle.

I am afriaid it will be painful as i have never groomed my fingers liek that. Is this dangerous to allow it to keep growing?

At most the fingers itch there slightly.

Thankyou.

Once you start poking around with your cuticles, you'll need to keep doing it forever. You also risk infection. If they aren't bothering YOU, leave them alone. Tell your girlfriend to stop focusing on your nails and pay more attention to the body parts she likes.

You should consider making an appointment with Dr. Dermatology.. just to be safe. I'm sure you can find a mole or two that can be checked during your visit. 1/2 to 3/4 seems substantial
