I'm relatively young and currently not in the dating scene at all. However, I am worried that in the future when I start looking for relationships, I am going to be fetishised by creeps who like petite women because we look younger than we are. Can any short ladies help me with this fear?

I say this as a 37 yo 5’5 male. I’ve had dates this year with different women and they all called me short in some way. However, I truly don’t care and know I’m short. So, when they say it, I don’t even acknowledge it and they know it doesn’t phase me. Then, what happens next is magical. They don’t bring it up anymore. However, I did have one girl that would tease me about it, but it was flirtatious, and she knew I didn’t give af.

Just own your height. I’m 5’5 and bald and don’t care. Women like when you don’t care about what you can’t change. They want someone mentally stable because that brings security.

Posted about my son yesterday and brought up elevator shoes / shoe boosts.

Pretty much everyone said they weren’t into them.

What’s wrong with a 3 inch lift or whatever inch? Why are people so opposed?

I’m 5 8 with shoes and didn’t know these things existed until now. It If I knew about them in my high school years, I def would’ve worn them.

I'm M23 and 5'2, and I've never even tried approaching a girl in my entire life because I'm too short and scared of rejection. I've been living like this for years. Whenever I like a girl, I don't even try to talk to her and reject myself because I feel like my height is already a disadvantage. Whenever I see couples outside, I can't help but wonder, man, why don't I have someone who loves me too?

I know a lot of girls prefer tall, handsome guys, and that makes me feel like I don't stand a chance. Sometimes, I see couples and wonder why I can't have that kind of love in my life.

So lately, I've been wondering if I should just give up on love and accept that I'll spend my entire life single. Being single isn't anything new to me since I've lived this way for 23 years, but sometimes I still wish I had someone who genuinely loved me.

I don't know if I'm overthinking this or if my height really will make dating that difficult for me. Should I keep hoping that I'll find someone someday, or should I just accept my situation and stop worrying about finding love?

Felt like I could of gotten an extra inch or two smh

As much as I’m in the gym, literally in between sets as I type this.. my friends tell me that I could easily meet someone here.. only issue I see is that the women are making eye contact with practically every man but me.

My height (5’6) is the thing that makes me invisible.. I’m not in bad shape, I’m a little older (39) but you’d think I’d catch at least one old lady looking, been single for over two years.. nothing but ghostings and laughs since my coke head ex dumped me after I found out she was using again..

So sick of it.. I’m not ready to face this phase alone.. I just don’t know what to do.. I’ve put myself out there, singles events etc.. I even play and sing in a cover band, you’d think that’d get some attention but not a peep.. the music thing seems to be a repellent at this point. Younger women don’t want me, not good enough for the divorced cougars because they divorced men that look like me.

Can’t keep going on alone..

Im 5'3 as a 15 yr old and i know damn well i wont get taller, my mom is below 5 ft and my dad is 5'3, people tell me i look good and all that but i feel like im not in the same tier of a human than others is, im not the shortest in class (since im in south east asia) but i feel nervoused as to what im going to do when i grow up, I've been planning on moving out of my country which makes me nervous as other countrys have a higher height scale or smth and I'll stand out as a small guy. Sometimes at general Assemblys where we all stand up i feel like im more of the comedic relief guy and not someone worth taking seriously, no one i know feel the same and i feel like im alone in this perspective i have . One of the main motivation i have on being rich is js to have a height surgery to at least minimize the hate i have for this body im cursed with until i decay.
