I said it before and I'll say it again. My father was 5'5" and had 3 wives, all taller than him, and still managed to cheat on all of them. The only thing holding short kings back is themselves.
May all your holiday gatherings only last exactly as long as you desire, and may a refreshing alcoholic beverage always be at hand. πΏπ
My father in law was also that tall and somehow convinced several beautiful women to marry him.
Maybe you and stopforgettingit are half-siblings from different marriages
5'6" who had a 4'11" roommate in college and both of us were absolute HOUNDS.
I am happily married now. To a woman an inch and a half taller than me
5'7" is the average male height in the US btw, so it's not like 5'6" is manlet territory. For whatever reason we have decided as a society that average male height is around 6 foot despite only 14.5% of American men being 6ft or taller.

I'm not dating short men, or men with a small penis, or men who are too fat, or balding men. I don't date at all. Date is the sticky fruit from a palm tree. I love instead. First of all myself - because I can only love others as well as I can love myself. And also I love a short, small-penised, fat old balding guy without teeth. Because he isn't insecure about any of those things. And I respect him very much because his feeling well with himself is clearly the result of some conscious effort that the nutsack-showing types have not done yet for themselves.
If you live in a world of 'dating' and 'looks' I don't consider you a serious person I would eat dates with. Go be someone without the approval of others for a while. There is no dating pool. Love will find you from within your own heart.

"On the internet, bald people have hairs"
As a black man, I can tell you the OP is a real girl.
Its funny how there is literally a trope/meme for this whole "fake announcement of what I am" thing.
Incels are dumb as fuck.
I'm 5.5 and seem to have no problem at all, healthy diet, active lifestyle, and a decent personality goes along way. Proof of this is my 5.5 uncle, smoker, bigot, incel and generally not a likeable person, and he believes he's owed a relationship and equally has never really had one.
man, I had a coworker who was all of 5'3", a smoker, nerd (love me nerds), kinda annoying (to me) never worked out outside of our physically demanding job, and with an actual medically diagnosed BO problem he needed special deodorant for. He had a loving girlfriend for all the years I knew him. She was thin like he was, and they were like peas in a pod and spent thier time off gaming together. He was Kind, and helpful, same as she was.
There is a lid for every pot
A person who thinks they are entitled to a relationship will struggle hard to get one. No one is entitled to this.
I have a a friend so similar to this I'd wonder if it was the same guy, except my buddy is on the chubbier side. He has the loveliest women in his life just by being kind and a great listener.
Whole Lee Shit. I know some short kings that aren't complaining. Meanwhile I'm out here tall, single, and my back hurts.
I was there, young one, back when the ancient scripts were written.
T'was the early 00's and I, as was fashionable at the time, used to use the information superhighway or "internet" as we call it now. Back then, a lot of men used to include "weight limits" on their dating profiles, catfishing being rather common back then. To counter this, a group of women started, and you'll laugh here, adding "height minimums" to their dating profiles to poke fun at such presumptuous men.
Well, as you can imagine, those young men were so very angry, especially when fat-shaming became socially unacceptable, whereas height jokes became the norm.
Witticisms aside - the whole "height" issue incels raise has its roots in feminist trolling, which was aimed as a counter to weight shaming.
A really short (but super buff) guy stole my mates ex-wife. Really nice guy though. Even my mate has no problem with him.
That being said, I do rock climbing, and the taller guys definitely have a general advantage.. However, Alex Hannold is only 180cm, so, I don't think it really matters
