I am talking about love in the sense of romantic love. I am very short and ugly which makes me very unattractive. Never had a girlfriend or touched a girl. I have many girl friends but one of them was my crush but I never asked her as I knew she would never like me. I know people will say that just get successful and rich and girls will like you, but will they like me or just money. What is the point of dating then. Is there any way I will get genuine love or am I destined to live alone for life.

All the girls say they want a tall guy, I can’t grow my height, trust me I tried, I visited the doctor, I tried exercise, I tried hormones, I tried a special diet that some random YouTuber told me, I tried everything. I can’t become tall for you. I am still thinking about limb lengthening surgery, The doctor said it is very risky and very possible I could never walk, but I want to take every chance possible. Trust me I tried. As soon as I get money I am doing surgery. This was my limit I can’t go beyond that.

        You’re not finding them because of your attitude.

        There are PLENTY of women who will happily hook up with, date and love short men. I’ve personally met more than I can count.

          I didn’t even notice that my now-husband is considered short when we started dating until someone else mentioned it. I was just like, “Oh, I hadn’t thought about it.” Because why would I? We got on great.

            Absolutely I can but can you tell me what value there is in me naming people in my life who you’ve never met? What good will seeing two names do? The attitude your carrying is just going to tell you that I’m lying no matter what.

              I just want to see if those girls who prefer short men actually exist or you are just making this up

                  Just because you said there are girls like that, now you don’t remember a single girl like that, am I right?

                    Lmao, buddy…

                    One day I hope you find the confidence you need to love yourself and you can look back on these foolish times with laughter and pride in your growth.

            My husband’s shorter than I am. I’m sure there are other people here in a relationship that would be a counter example, but my sister’s husband is also shorter than she is (both by 2-3”).

            My partner’s ex was short and she didn’t give a fuck about that - a few of my childhood friends were short and they’re all married now. There are features that are considered generally attractive and it’s certainly easier in life if you have those traits but, honestly, they’re so fucking unimportant compared to the other shit.

            If height was really that much of an issue then how could we all have been drooling over Peter Dinklage’s portrayal of Tyrion - hint it might be because there are more important things than height.
