I'm 5'5". Never had any personal issues with my height and am amazed when people feel like it's a reason to treat me as inferior or not for serious consideration. It always seems so weird. Especially, when they're just some moronic tall guy who feels like being 6-foot is some sort of immense achievement.

The thing that annoys me about being short is knowing that my life will be completely circumscribed by other's superficiality and narrow mindedness and there's nothing I can do about it.

I can have a great time with a woman, but if she's even close to conventionally attractive there's an anvil floating above my head the entire time that drops the moment she thinks she can do better - which is always.

People will say, don't let it get you down. How exactly? How do you not let that get you down? How is that not a cause for depression?

There are other fish in the sea. Are there, really? The only women willing to date short men are either ugly as sin, fringe weirdos, or fat single moms. It's like you have this one reasonably minor flaw that completely tanks your value to all but the most desperate.

The options I'm presented with are either date extremely low value women with zero compensatory traits that I'm not even slightly attracted to or die alone.

And I'm supposed to be happy about that? I'm supposed to workout 5 times a week, eat clean, keep my hair tight, dress like a GQ model and be the life of the party to end up with some slobbering fat roastie with six kids from different dads? Would any woman settle for the equivalent scenario? Lol. Women won't even settle for their looksmatch.
