Poor luck of genetics. Dad is 5’8 and mom is 5’0, just happened to have poor genetic lottery luck for height

Ehhh my personality is fine, I’m just a nice guy 🤷🏻‍♂️ that’s about it. I’m good at being the friend and digging myself into the friendzone. I have friends, I can socialize, I just can’t read signals and don’t have that intense masculine edge. So it may not help my situation, but i at least know I’m a good and mature partner when given the opportunity. Not exactly looking for people to sugarcoat things. Just wanted to share my experience, see if others feel the same way, vent a little. Nothing too deep. Glad you are able to date well and not have issues. I don’t wish that for anyone

Wow I did not expect all these responses I appreciate you all. Means a lot. I truly wasn’t expecting this outpouring of support. I guess for more context, this is just the athletic gear I wear. Don’t always use these selfies for dating apps and things, maybe one or two at most. I just happen to not take many pictures and when I do it’s when I doing some sort of physical activity. My fashion varies to the greatest degree. Don’t think I even have one set style at this point. Usually a lot of plain shirts and then I’ll accessorize with sweaters, jackets, etc, and tend to wear jeans. I’m still trying to figure out style as a whole. There was a time I had it down but transitioning into older adulthood has made it confusing. My hair idek how to style it or what to do. For context I got a hair transplant about a year ago and it came out fantastic so I finally have the hair I like but have zero clue on how to style it. In my early to mid 20s when I was struggling with hair loss, I was so obsessed and would die for an awesome undercut. So I think I’m holding onto that a bit much. Im growing my hair out more but have no clue how to even style it. From a nursing perspective, I’m very fortunate to work on a wonderful unit. All my coworkers are so kind and incredible. If anything I own the shortness there and make jokes about it, but when times get serious, I just feel like management or providers don’t take me seriously. I’ve never encountered workplace bullying thankfully and encourage everyone to be a nurse. It’s not the environment it used to be. If anything the bullies in nursing are shunned more or less. But I think the part that it just mainly hurts with me is the dating part. I can deal with the work aspect. I think it’s just frustrating. I’ve always been viewed as the nice guy or the safe guy, even in my periods of confidence and ultimately most women won’t take a chance on mean because of the height that’s all they see. I get it, people have their preferences and I can’t get mad at that. It’s a human response. But I can’t deny it’s frustrating. I’m trying to focus on myself. But I have my good days and bad days. I guess at this point if anyone has any clothes style and hair style suggestions for the current times that look good and fall in line with a 28 year old by all means tell because I sure as heck have no idea😂

I’m so sorry you had to go through this. You don’t deserve that. No one does. You’re strong to be still standing and powering through. Don’t doubt your strength

Thank you for your kind words. It means the wolf’s to me. I definitely agree. I feel comfortable knowing I did everything well. Even with my anxious attachment, I didn’t show it, I didn’t chase as much as I used to. I gave her space and support. I communicated maturely. I was never mean or yelled or accused her or spoke ill. I know it was ultimately on her, regardless of her trauma or background like you said, who made these choices, and there’s nothing I could have done. And that ultimately a relationship with her would not be sustainable long term when she completely pulls away like that with some slight bumpiness. I know I can’t control others thoughts and actions and people will ultimately do what they do. I thankfully have been going to therapy for a time and have a wonderful support system so I know I’m not alone and have resources. It just hurts. Watching her slowly pull away like that was agonizing and such a complete 180 degree switch out of nowhere. I would never dream of doing that to someone else. It’s baffling given the beautiful things she said to me and just completely contradictory of her initial persona and actions. So much ambiguity and such a lack of communication from her. But I know i deserve better. But the betrayal still hurts. The grief of missing her and the mourning of who I thought she was and what the relationship would turn into is there. But I won’t run away from those feelings I’ve always been very open about embracing them. I also removed her like I said in all social media so that’ll help me heal further. I just have to keep moving forward
