I’m 5’5 and Earning Well, but My Height Is Hurting My Dating Life
I’m 26, introverted, and have spent most of my life focused on school. I now work and earn over ₦1 million a month, but people often assume I’m still a university student because I’m short and have a small build. I’ve recently started trying to date, but a couple of women have turned me down. One said she doesn’t like short men, while another said I’m not her type. It took a lot for me to approach them, so the rejections have made me retreat into my shell again. I’m thinking of going to the gym to build muscle and look more mature. Do you think that could improve my confidence and dating prospects? I can’t change my height, but I’m starting to wonder if it’s the main reason women aren’t interested.
