Trust me, if a girl doesn't want you, it's not simply because you're short. I may not bat for the same team as other girls, but I have an idea how the straight ones work. We care about more than just height. Trust me.
But no girl will even give me a chance.
I DESERVE a reasonably attractive girlfriend.
I feel like that's a red flag.>.>
@Kitty Cat Kat is right though. It takes a lot more than height to turn any man or woman away.
But people will make fun of me for being stuck with a short, ugly, desperate girl.
Okay, that one is definitely a red flag.
There's nothing wrong with being short. I'm probably about 5'10", so I'm a little on the short side. And just because someone is short does not mean they are ugly or desperate. In fact I like girls who are a little short/petite. Kinda prefer it actually.
If you've got some problem with shortness, that's on you and nobody else. There's only a problem here if you decide there is.
Short girls Are HOT
I'm 6'7" is it weird that my preferences are towards short chicks?
In any case Girls will have different height preferences from each other as well as in most cases not judging a person entirely on something as Vapid as height
And if you care about what people will think of you when they see X Girlfriend rather then the relationship then what you're seeking isn't a relationship, rather an accessory, adjust your views and you'll likely have a much easier time dating... or don't whatever floats your boat
Some girls like shorter guys
They don't tend to like self entitled guys though, who think that they deserve a girlfriend for whatever reason.
...I think I've worked out why no girls are giving you a chance... (hint: It's not your height)
Shouting around that you DESERVE an attractive girlfriend is probably what puts girls off.
Or well, what puts me off. There's nothing worse than arrogance.
It seems like you're the one who won't give shorter people a chance, seeing as you generalize all of them as ugly and desperate.
Just because that might be true for you, does not mean it's true for all shorties ;)
But girls want a tall guy who will protect them and their children from harm.
Even short girls want tall guys, so your advice is useless.
There's no advice in the world that is going to make you taller. The advice you were given was to stop being so self-entitled and that there is nothing wrong with shorter girls (in fact, many people find them more attractive). Nobody "deserves a reasonably attractive girl" just for simply existing. If you are judging girls by their height and attractiveness, are you any better than the girls who are judging you on the fact that you are short? Instead of judging others (and yourself) by their heights, perhaps you should look for some people with whom you have things in common and move from there instead of immediately counting someone out because she's only 5'0".
As for yourself, I think a couple people have hit the nail on the head. The reason you are having trouble finding a girlfriend is because you value yourself over others. It's not because you're short or because girls don't feel you can protect them and their children; it's because they don't want to give you that chance. Take some time to reflect on what is actually important in your life and the relationship you want. If what is important is some arm candy, then you are certainly looking in the wrong direction (unless you make millions and just want some skank who will leave you in two years and take half your stuff). However, if you figure out that you value an actual relationship where both parties are willing to sacrifice some things for the other, then you'll find the advice given to be worthwhile and true.
Good luck in whatever path you choose.
Could I be short because I was born prematurely? Or because I didn't drink my milk as a kid?
No.
You're short due to genetics and diet. The amount of protein, as well as up to 20 different genes contribute to how tall you grow. Also your mothers diet and lifestyle while you were in the womb would have had a big effect on your height.
Long story short, it's too late to worry about your height now
I think my life would be perfect if I were taller. I'm smart, funny, and good-looking.
I don't like you. I don't even know what you look like, but there's a vibe I get from reading your posts in this thread that you're not a pleasant person to be around.
I'm not trying to be offensive, by the way, I'm just stating my opinion on the matter. Perhaps you should read through what you've said and try to think why people might not like the way you present yourself.
We all say that self-esteem and confidence always help.
But being an arrogant is something different and will never help you, And that is probably the problem here.
If you are acting all like "I DESERVE HOT GIRLZ ONLY! LULZ", then that is the reason no girl would like to be related with you.
No offence, but if you really want to be in relationship. Be less arrogant.
Short people are attractive imo, doesn't matter wether they're girls or not. Your problem is your attitude, you whine about not getting one rather then searching for one and not only that but the way you answer shows that you're too full of yourself. Too much selfpraise and claiming that you deserve certain things more then other are a big turnoff to women also I think your standard is probably too high. Stop looking for some bikinimodel that you see in the magazines and first look at your errors before stating what you deserve. Also it may have taken me 18 years to figure it out but obviously they're not gonna line up for you with a snap of your finger, talk to them because that's all you can do at first and then ask them out.
Now check this thread again and think about what the real problem is please.

While we're on the topic of height though, can I just state that short guys are extremely adorable?
just look at @Cheese Sandwich. He's tiny and is hella adorbs
I'm thinking about getting that bone surgery that makes you taller.

Sorry... :hai:
I just had to.
But 5'3 is practically a midget for a white male.
Yes it is.
I have had the strong sensation for some time now that this thread would be more appropriately placed in forum humor.:facehoof:
There's more to someone than their height.
I'm not going to lie, shorter guys do seem less 'manly'.
Is this a bad thing? Not necessarily.
There are plenty of girls who are open to dating shorter men (imo everyone should be) and I think you're making this a much bigger deal than it has to be.
Appearances aside, there is so much more to a person than how tall they are, and believe it or not but personality is what determines whether or not a relationship can be succesfull, not physical appearance.
Well, I might as well be a midget.
See? Even you say short men are unmanly.
But I'm still thinking about getting that surgery to make me taller.
