You know, all throughout my life, I’ve always been way too short. I’m hitting 17 this December 18th, and I’m 5’2. It’s so hard for me to get into a relationship, and when I am in one, it doesn’t last long because of my personality.
I still get teased about my height, and sometimes people try to mess with me. Don’t get me wrong, I can easily fend for myself. Multiple times I have fought kids that were 6’1 – 6’3 in height and won, I don’t lose in fights, haven’t lost one yet anyway.
But anyways, I just don’t understand. It’s hard to get into a relationship because I am short, I’m a very mellow, type of person, I have a good build, I exceed most subjects, even math though I hate it. And I never run my mouth, ever, probably because I admire Clint Eastwood a lot, you know, man of few words. And I am very understanding I believe, I try to see things through logic.
It’s like, whatever I do isn’t good enough when it comes to relationships. I don’t do drugs, don’t do tobacco, and every once in awhile I’ll drink, wine, that I actually make myself. I’m not some, clean freak, it’s just I do not try anything of that nature, because I find it repulsive. It’s like, I can skin, gut animals, no problem, none at all, but no one else wants to because they think it’s gross or whatever, I’m not a hick, I like trying to be a survivalist.
Because of my short stature, it seems that every time I meet someone, their first comment is “Wow, you’re like soo short!” and I mean it’s just gotten so old that I think “No shit…”, it’s like I literally expect people to say that. My friends STILL have comments of my height, though no one teases them about their big ass nose, or the way they drool when they laugh…or the fact they aren’t so big under the belt. I mean people think they are so damn short because they are 5’8, what I would do to be 5’8……
Another bad thing is, even the short girls I know, they date guys that are like 6ft….
Me being short all of my life, I wouldn’t and couldn’t even think about complaining if I was dating a tall girl, which I have before.
I just don’t see what is so wrong about being short really, I mean I am smart, stronger, faster, and pretty much better in a lot of ways then a lot of people I know, it’s just being short just blows because society seems to think that short people are mean little trolls or something.
I know I may sound full of it or something right now, I’m just kinda pissed from thinking about it.
So I have a question to Women and a Question to men.
Women: What’s wrong with dating short guys?
Men: What’s wrong with being short?
@BeholdAPaleHorse Thankyou, you know, it’s hard to believe there are people out there like you, good people.
@Archer True enough, you know….I never did notice I was so short or anything of that nature, I always thought a foot of difference between me and another person was nothing, because I just always feel a bit taller than I am, but I look at a picture of my cousin (who is 23 and 5’0 and stuck with a gf who doesn’t care about him, but he is literally the sweetest person in the world, just short) and I hope not to end up like that one day.
@Paul I understand. I don’t talk much in RL at all, it’s just when I get a bit angry or curious, I want to ask all these questions on this website, which seems to do good for me a lot. I natural think with logic, but when my mind is cluttered, I usually meditate, I haven’t done any meditating though today.
@bigcatrescueaus Well that’s good. Atleast it has some benefits.
@m!LLy b0r3d I wish the majority of people here were the same! Makes me happy to know there is some people that do not have a problem with it. Maybe I need to move to an area where the majority of the population is Asian, seems like from what you say, people are more understanding.
@m!LLy b0r3d True, I’m actually JUST now getting out of being shy and everything. You’re right, I should try to party a little. You know, the only parties I have ever went to, are “fight parties” basically where people would set up a fight for this party, as entertainment. Me being on of the fighters, all the time.
