Because of my insecurities, I've psyched myself out of many opportunities to ask girls out as I'll think that they'll feel insulted somehow. I have this mindset where, since I'm short, I should forget about asking why girls out at all. But then... I realized something just now. If humans are social creatures, it shouldn't be a bad thing to ask a girl out or ask her for number. If anything, it's a compliment. So even if she says no, she'll still feel good about herself and you're relationship with her is still good. The only way she'll prolly feel offended is if you smell bad, look grimy and/or your personality/views are garbage (all of which can be fixed, anyway).

So from now on, I'll fix myself up, look and smell presentable and be charming and charismatic. When that's all done, I'll just ask out any girl that I like, without worrying she says no or not. Any additional advice is welcome.
