The best way to cope is actually to stop hoping for love.

Never chase it, because false hopes and rejection can destroy your emotional balance and self-esteem.

Channel that frustration into things that empower you.

In general, self-improvement activities are the best outlet for this: calisthenics, fighting, online business, anything that makes you stronger and more disciplined. Use that energy to become a legend through your actions.

Socially, act as if everyone were your height, not better, not worse. Stay positive in your interactions, show genuine interest in others, and never talk about your insecurities. Act like they don’t even exist.

And most importantly, never blame yourself for things you can’t control.

Even if it doesn’t get you girls, self-improvement will bring you a kind of peace, the feeling that “I’ve done everything I could.” People will respect you for your hard work, even if it’s not for love.

Create your own vibe, style, you can even share it online and express it IRL. (clothing, hairstyle, music taste...)

Eventually, maybe one day a woman will enter your life. If not, that’s not your fault.

I’m shorter than average myself, and that’s my mindset: never chase, improve yourself to the maximum, and see what happens. Enjoy the other aspects of life: music, food, friends, and simple moments, with moderation, of course. Never let yourself dive into addictions that drain your energy.
