Short man problems

Be a nurse. I’m a nurse. Get an ASN and let your first employer pay for your bachelors. You’ll have almost no debt and you’ll make $65k right out of school, possibly more depending on where you live. It’ll set you free man. You’ll be able to go anywhere you want and pretty much be guaranteed a job.

You will date women. You may like some of them and you won’t like others. The main thing is not to base your worth on what women, or anyone else for that matter, think of you. Do you, brother.

This is one area of desire that blows my mind between hetero and gay couples. Pockets gays (aka short guys) are seen as extremely attractive by men, whereas I've only heard women complaining about the height of their potential partners, like it's a check box that must be met in order for them to ever be interested. It's so shallow, and something I've experienced first hand as a 5'8 guy, and fucked me up emotionally for a while right up until I came out and other guys literally talked about my height as something they found sexy.

You will find someone dude. You're 20. You're young. Even though we feel old at 20. But you'll find someone. I'm introverted. Suck at making friends. I only have a girlfriend cuz she didn't have a lab partner and just decided to talk to me. So I'll hand this to you. And least you go out and try. But in the end. Someone will come by. It always happens. I got my first proper gf at 19. Took me 19 years to get a gf that actually mattered and loved me properly. I know this sounds cliche and typical but it's the best advice I can give as someone who's struggled to get a gf for many years. So don't worry man. You got this

If you want to be a nurse be a nurse, fuck everyone and anything else.

Be true to you and become the nurse YOU want to be.

There are women who are shorter than you, date them. Until then go with escorts. No reason not to, really. Don't ruin your own life with empty moralizing.

Man, you know it really does suck when you start leaning towards not pursuing your dreams because of a daunting enemy. (Experiencing that myself with the fear of consequence of losing my future because someone’s got a chip on their shoulder.) Frankly, your height isn’t an issue. Because the people that it is an issue to don’t deserve to share your company. One of my best friends is 5’4 and his wife is 5’11. They have been married for 15 years and adopted five children to save them from the system. There is someone out there that’ll fancy you and you’ll fancy them. What’s most important though, is you just being happy. A token of advice I got when I was just a boy was that the only person that can make you truly happy is yourself, it’s not easy and hell it may never be easy. But once you can figure out how to just let go and be happy with yourself, it’ll get easier.

Probably not the answer you're looking for but find some solace in freedom from them. Basically, just do whatever you want, but accept they might not be around. I would say don't let yourself be defined by them and continue moving.

Isn't dwarfism = to being 1ft of height

There are upsides to all heights tbh, for example, if you don't have a serious spare tire, you are probably lighter than a taller guy(and actually have a mechanical advantage for lifting) short and not hugely broad is great when weight matters, and if you want to work in the medical field, you should totally take a look at medivac, but even as a nurse, you are likely less intimidating, which is GREAT for a pediatric ward. Frankly in all likelihood, with the profession you want to go in, you will meet TONS of people that DON'T CARE that you are short, don't count yourself out, swing for the fences, you might just pull it off.

Start by cleaning up your room

The kind of women I'd like to be with don't even acknowledge my existence, and the ones I do attract tend to be mentally unstable.

You sound like a woman.

Men's typical issue in life is "I attract nobody", women's typical issue in life is "I attract nobody (except creeps)", you talk like the later.

I also want details on what constitutes "mentally unstable women", because at your age and experience it's even probable that the "mentally unstable" ones are just average women that your judge harshly because you don't how women work, what interests them and what validates them. Or just you are very submissive and women become quickly abusive fucks to you, which is also highly likely considering your profile. Or you're telling the truth but I would need more details to believe you.

What's certain is that you need to be more assertive.
