Search Results: dating a shorter person

Growing up, I was a major outcast and suffered with a lot of severe mental health issues. I had interests that were obsessive and unusual, such as an interest in fire alarms, phone systems, and intercoms. I missed a lot of school due to mental health reasons that required hospitalization and residential treatment. I hardly fit in with anyone at school, and girls especially didn't pay any attention to me. I was also (and still am) short in height at 5'6". I missed a lot of developmental milestones that I reap today.

I was never athletic in school. I was not involved in sports really. I was, however, involved in boy scouts up to age 16 and transitioned into the fire explorer programs.

Socially, I have always struggled. I was hoping adulthood would be better, but it turned out to be worse and a nightmare.

I am 27, almost 28, and I never had a real girlfriend. My absolute biggest regret that kills me to this day is not experiencing young romance. I so wish I was able to form those memories with a girl when I was young who was around my age.

It wasn't until I was around 19 when I had my first kiss with this girl I found repulsive to me. I tried dating her, but it just didn't feel right. She just was not attractive to me.

Also, there was this girl named Izzy that was around 15 when I was 18. Although we cuddled and I kissed her, she became a transgender man and resents me. There is no going back there.

When I was 20, I lost my virginity to another 16 year old girl during a weekend fling. She did not want anything to do with me romantically after that. In fact, I was convicted of stalking because of her (long story).

After that, all I have had is online things with girls where they rejected me upon meeting me in person because I was unattractive to them.

I haven't touched a girl in 7 years. Meanwhile, all my peers and former friends I have known are married and have kids.

I want a woman without a romantic past where we can be each other's first loves.

Heterosexual Ladies of GAG: Here's a hypothetical man. I was told by one female user he'd be a good man. But is that true? If you were/are currently single... WOULD YOU DATE THIS GUY?

POSITIVE TRAITS:

- Very Respectful, to both you and everyone else. But will always treat you with respect.

- Has good Communication skills, both in public speaking and especially in communicating with you.

- Very Affectionate; romantic, very touchy, and compassionate towards you.

- Really Loyal; to both you and his friends and family. He's the most dependable, reliable guy around.

- Intelligent and highly resourceful. Can easily solve many life problems, as long as they're not social issues.

- Good Sense of Humor. Is witty to hysterical, depending on the time and situation.

- Ethical. An all-around 'good' person. Not a saint or angel, but does his best to be a decent human being.

NEGATIVE TRAITS:

- Short. Probably your height (5'8" or under) in shoes or shorter than you. Use your imagination.

- Average looking face. Probably a 4 or 5 in looks. Easily someone you would NOT find attractive or good looking at all!

- Broke. Only makes around $25,000 a year working full time. May or may not be in university.

- Out of shape. Use your imagination here, but I won't give specifics. Could have a Dad Bod (average-fat), could be stocky/chubby (overweight), or could be obese (290-360 pounds). Take a guess.

- Gamer. Enjoys video games. Plays games about 6 to 9 hours a week. For many, many women, a gamer is a dealbreaker.

- Lonely. Has been alone for a long time (life). Is the same age as you and born in the same year, but has never dated anyone and is currently a virgin.

- Small penis. Is less than 7 inches, but more than 3.9. Use your imagination for the maximum you'd consider "small."

SO, WOULD YOU DATE THIS MAN? (No, he's not me! Nice try.)
