This is what I tell people:

Vast majority of guys are average looking (bell curve), the minority is either extremely handsome on one end or extremely ugly on the other end
Average guys are around 5’6. Average women are 5’2.

If you are not in the “average” bracket, I would skip online dating. It doesn’t do you any favor as it only sells pictures of yourself in 2D.

Do night and day game where you can sell yourself in 3D, much better experience. People get to know the whole you in real time, not just your face or your height.

Height is surely important, but it's not the only factor. What surprises me is that you're playing on dating apps, I mean, that's the place where your height is less noticeable in the whole world. How can you say you get rejected on dating apps because of your height?

Your problem is “how do I get more energy to go out?” Do you mean physical energy or mental energy? I think people who followed this lifestyle while having a day job mentioned they had afternoon naps or something like that. Also working out helps your overall stamina

I knew a small person (the ones with dwarfism). And he went balls out and was a menace. Approached every girl he liked and got most of them too. You can either cry or use your strengths.

Don’t let that get you down, you’re not alone, I’ve also found some challenges and almost no matches online and I’m a self-professed professional wingman

So your real problem is lack of energy. Get that checked out by a doctor, maybe you need to do more sports, sleep better, take supplememts, hop on test etc.

Man, when I tried Muay Thai there was some "short" guys (for me) I found very impressive: muscular, tatoos, bear, intenses.

Me I'm being tall and it does help me so much :D

If it makes you feel better I'm 6'2" and get zero interest from women

You can’t change your height but you can max out the other attraction factors. Like, build a business and become mega-successful, lead other men, sharp grooming & clothing, continue to workout. Becoming successful can take time but the reality is at 5’2 lacking some sort of high status, you are swimming upstream.

Actually, come to think of it, there are some high tech shoes that add a few inches to your height. Maybe you can them.

Good looking = more than half of people in the society about evenly distributed across genders find me attractive.

Had you been "good looking" you would not be having your problem. This means you cannot rely on looks because you arent good looking. You drew a shitty card. You cannot change that card. But you can equalize that card. That equalizer is called money.

Social events are my only option to meet people, but that requires a lot of social energy, which is difficult for me as an introvert.

A great analogy by the RSD team back in the PUA days was that for introverts their 'Social Resistance' is like a muscle, over time you can build it up to last longer, and perform better for longer, but don not over-strain it.

However, I haven't been able to go out and meet new people in the last six months due to lack of energy.

You also need to Enjoining Going out in busy environments to meet and socialize with people ( other wise it is a chore) if you are super logical then you can learn to be more extroverted when being social, learning to make random chat with people and have fun interacting with strangers, it is a positive feedback loop.

Make sure you enjoy being out in parties , bars etc . chose place where the vibe fits, and you like the music. chose places where you fit in/your types of people, make sure you are with Fun friends etc.

Edit -well well downvoted by the incel team...

Have you tried not writing your height on your dating app profile? I know they will find out eventually, but you gotta lead with your best qualities.

Your options are already few at that height. Some options you have are

Become rich
Become famous
Move to a place with much shorter people

Bro your height literally means nothing. I have never in my life seen any girl who got interested in me because of my height. Same thing in the dating apps.
