Height doesn't affect relationships. Your personality might and I'm not going to lie because of course appearance matters but in that sense it's more a general upkeep of one's self. Which is possible unlike height so perk up and increase your height by holding your chin up and take on the dating world.

There are definitely people out there who like short people, and there will definitely be a guy out there who likes your height!

What you can do is slap that !#$er and find someone that appreciates you for who you are. I prefer shorter girls. I am sure you can find such a person too!| p.s. You're too short? Really? The only problem you have is "You're awesome, the problem is that there is not enough of you" ?? *high five*

You can make friends, and have fun with hobbies and social things. "Those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind." Hopefully you will realize that some people will like and date you based on who you are, not your height. Have faith that some people can look beyond height for romantic/sexual/friendship appeal. Besides, if you're having fun, doing interesting stuff, and being an excellent friend to those around you, then people will be more likely to be attracted to you. Or, if you think someone will reject you for your height, deliberately laugh and have lots of fun near them so they see what they're missing out on.

There's no such thing as too short for someone to date! If you're outside of someone's height preference, that's on them. Find someone who will love you (and your stature!) 200%, and you'll be a happier person for it. But firstly, and most importantly, if your height is an insecurity, work on that first. Learn to love yourself. Become confident and happy about your body and the things that you cannot change. A small mental exercise that really helps with this is giving yourself positive compliments in your head. It may feel silly at first, but changing your self-talk from negative to positive pep-talk will improve your self confidence. Take the time to compliment yourself daily, and watch your life slowly transform.

Height is one of those traits that people tend to obsess over when it's about themselves, but many people do not even see height as an attraction factor! When seeking out a partner, height is a small and trivial aspect, there is much more to focus on. Don't stress about it, the right person will find you perfect exactly the height you are! For now, focus on becoming the best you that you can be personality wise. Traits like kindness, compassion, sense of humor, and selflessness are much more important in the context of relationships than trivial physical aspects such as heights.

no its not like that. its your opinion . love and relationship take place from heart not from physical appearance , and if they are from physical appearance then the relationship is not real or true. So if you want a relationship you just have to be a pure soul and good from heart which i know you are . now you just have to wait a little for that perfect guy who deserves you,who love your soul no matter how you look. So keep calm your prince charming is on his way just wait a little you are gonna find him soon. till then all the best. :)

Is that his opinion or yours? If he has stated quite clearly that you're too short for him, then the answer is there; it's not going to happen. In some ways as harsh as that is, it's easier to deal with because it's not something you can change. You can't make yourself taller and nor should you (if it were possible). Of course getting over the guy and moving on is all subjective to how you deal with those emotions and your relationship to the guy to begin with. But, if you just FEEL too short for him to date. That your height reflects your worth and desirability then maybe question that? Why does it? Shouldn't what makes you, you, be your choices. Your actions. Not things that can't change and that really, fundamentally mean nothing... Though that's an outsider's perspective. For you it could be really defining. I guess if it is your insecurity playing up, rather than his preferences could you discuss that with him? Being that vulnerable can be daunting but with it comes at least closure.

Remember that you are you. There are many people out there who are attracted to many different things, and someone out there will see you for you. Attraction is arbitrary for everyone will see the world differently. Some people will be attracted to short people, and some people prefer tall people. Besides be confident in who you are for even short men like Peter Dinklage can date and even get married. Date someone who will appreciate you for who you are. More importantly, appreciate yourself and know that even though others may not see it-YOU are valuable.

There is no such thing as 'too short'. You will find someone who won't care about your height. If you like a guy, do you fall in love with their height? No? Well, guys don't look at a girl either and think 'hmm, she's so pretty and has a nice personality but I can't fall in love with her cause she's too short.' Most guys like short girls, they think they're cute. The right person will love you for who you are. If it makes you feel more comfortable though, you could always wear heels or try other ways that make you seem taller. Flared pants, for example, make your legs look taller, just make sure they don't drag across the floor as that will make you seem shorter. Highwaisted clothes might help as well, like highwaisted jeans, skirts, dresses etc. Please remember that it's okay to wear these things to make you feel more sure of yourself but do not just wear this because you think people will like you better if you look taller, don't change for anyone. They'll like you for who you are.
