Hey all
Basically, like im guessing a lot of other guys do also, i feel like rubbish. Im short, shorter then most girls even at 5'6, and although im not ugly, I look very young. I look 15-16 when in reality im 18.
Even if i dress "maturely", i still look young. It seems unavoidable.
Its gotten to the point where I feel like not even trying to get girls ever, until im late 20s and look a little older.

My mindset is such that ill see a girl who is my height, or even shorter sometimes (I dont even consider going for taller girls) I automatically think "They would not go for me, because they can get taller guys. And girls ALWAYS go on about how they like guys to be 6 foot. Im not even close".

Ive tried smiling at girls, being told that a smile is the best attractor, but how can it possibly work if it looks like a child is smiling at them? They probably assume im some little high school kid trying to pick up an older woman.
Also, I brought up the courage to smile, and it had no seductive effect. The girl kind of forced a smile back. Another time the girl stared me down, in a "What are you trying to do" way.

Although im considered very funny and am able to talk to and engage groups of people (ive always been quite good at conversation and have recently learnt a couple magic tricks to make opening easier than ever before), i just feel so small and insignificant on the "physical attraction" side of things that ive become depressed and unsocial.



Please be honest. DO LOOKS MATTER? Im not talking about having acne or being chubby, im talking about being physically tiny and looking young and like a child.
Im sorry what im asking is not clear, i dont know what im really asking. I just want honest advice, on what I should do to get women considering my "difficult circumstances".

It seems as though my physical problem is the worst you can possibly get. Much worse than being obese even, because with me there is just no way to physically look impressive/alpha/masculine without looking like you have an inferiority complex.
fml. fml big time huh

regardless of whether or not looks matter, it doesn't matter. You look the way you do nothing you an do your not going to have serious growth in your life so get over it. If you frame yourself as short powerless and insignificant thats the way you will be seen. Be confident use your strenghts (humor, ability to capture attention) being self-concious and worrying about this question will get you nowhere and will not only limit you in pick-up but in life. Approach tall girls small girls and all girls worst case scenario you get rejected that's the purpose of this whole thing.

Confidence is key, find a way to achieve that and you're golden. There are plenty of self help books and guides in stores and on the internet.
