Original Reddit post

Im a 20 year old 5ft3 man who feels like he’s not taken seriously bcause of his height. It irks me. I just feel like people judge me differently. Especially women. I was in the club last night and some girls said they’d date me but only as like an accessory because I was so short and stuff. This is not the only time I’ve heard this. And I just feel like people either think of me as a dumb child or a man with a napoleon complex. Now I am insecure because of my height but I never tell anyone. I never bring it up and i respect women’s preferences for a taller man and tbh I do really well for myself in terms of sleeping with women even though im short and below average looking. But whenever I try to go for something serious with them they always say that they could only see me as something casual or just something sexual because i wouldn’t make them feel really feminine in a relationship. Its as it they wouldn’t trust me to be a good bf or for me to keep them safe. Pretty much ever woman ive slept with has said this to me since i was 16. I mean i do want something serious. Like I am a medical student who’s looking to have a really good career and one day be responsible for a family. And it hurts because all my friends who are tall, and I’ll be real im the only one in my friendship group under six foot, get into relationships so easily. But with me the issue isn’t getting a girl to sleep with me but getting a girl to be my girlfriend. Any advice would be helpful? submitted by /u/Cheap_Ad8346
