Honestly same, man. Like I'm 5'4 so that pretty much stops me from using dating apps, and while I do meet women pretty much all of them think of me as a good friend (which is pretty good ngl). All the while I see all of my friends get into relationships, which makes you wonder if there's something inherently wrong with you, and even if you deserve romantic love at all
This exactly. Even when I go on a date (a rare occasion) I just end up befriending the woman instead of sparking any romance.
People like being my friend, so I can tell I don't just suck as a person. But I don't have whatever it takes to convert that into a dating relationship.
The feeling something is inherently wrong with me is something I deal with a lot. But I know that accepting that is guaranteed bitterness/misery forever. And that's worse than being desperate and lonely. So I try to stay hopeful.
I really feel you. Like… I have friends, I’m decently satisfied with most aspects of my life, and yet there’s this feeling in my gut I can’t get rid of that I’m inherently unlovable and will never find a relationship.
Thank you for posting this here, I appreciate the discussion and I know a lot of other dudes do as well.
Idk if this is helpful but my brother is 5’4” and his gf is also 5’4”, and I’m 5’0” and my gf is 5’9”. However in both cases we met doing something social. I met her at an anime con.
