too short to get a gf

I'm not 5'3 but I am 5'6. I have no problems getting most women. I have even dated and slept with women 5'10 and up.

The key is to not give a fuck about your height. Never bring it up or worry about it. Keep hitting the gym and keep that 10%-15% body fat, dress well, and you should still be good.

Get a midget fetish.

Of course you're fucked on dating apps. Shit's 95% looks based, and they can filter by height.

Have you tried cold approaching? Probably not, because you're over here talking about tinder failures.

As another short dude (below average female height in my home country): Suck it up´and work on your game. Your defeatist attitude is what is ruining your chances.

Also, why are you inflating your numbers here? You say you are 5'3 and then comment you are 5'3 "in shoes". So what are you really, 5'1? 4'8? Lying here isn't going to get you any helpful comments.

Your height is obviously a huge handicap, but not an impossible one. I'm just a tiny bit taller and I haven't had any problems, so I really really doubt that an inch or 2 is the difference maker of having 5 plates who want to date you exclusively to having 0.

You likely want to focus on short girls. While some girls don't really care that much, it's rare to find one that willingly takes someone 4 inches shorter than they are. I think only about 10-20% of the girls I've been with have been signficantly taller than I am.

I also find online game to be waste of time for short people. It's much easier to filter people willing to go for you offline. Face to face interactions it's pretty clear in the first few minutes if there's a chance or not (whether because of your height, face, or whatever reason) and you don't end up wasting time chasing tail that will reject you for arbitary criteria. Although, there was some contrary example a few weeks back about short guy with good looks crushing on Tinder so YMMV.

Finally, if a girlfriend is a necessity to you and you are so absolutely convinced that your height is fucking you up, pack your shit and move to Asia.

You can either be bitter and bitch or play the cards you have. World won't change to accomodate you. I chose to play my cards and I haven't been disappointed.
