‘I’m a short guy (5ft. 4in.). I don’t hide the fact nor do I lie about my height. I’m not ashamed. 9 times out of 10 when meeting a woman for a date, I get the “Oh,” followed by the awkward disinterest, which ultimately devolves into “I don’t really date short men” speech. It’s just a waste of time and an extra expense from my experience.’

‘Trying online dating and realising that most girls on there are not looking for anything serious, have no personality, just look for handouts, are more interested in playing games or are just incompatible with me (in terms of future goals and hobbies/interests).
‘According to my sister, it’s the same shit on the other side too.
‘If you just want to fuck, you’re in luck, but if you are actually looking to build a connection, then it’s rough in this day and age.’
