I agree with everybodys sentiments on here @Alexy and @caroline, I will look into this Dopamine thing more as well. Might explain a few on my ups and downs when I see or speak to certain people.

Only thing I want to add to the mix is, have you thought about travelling again and getting some adventure back in your life?? Maybe thats what you actually crave rather than a human being. Also its very easy to do things over Skype etc but never back it up in real life.
I would move on, travel and enjoy life, its going to be tough.

Hello,

Anything I say here is coming from a genuine 29 year old male who is also 5ft3!

First of all, your height won’t stop you finding love or getting married. Yes it does cut down the potential candidates a bit but I’ve dated quite successfully girls who 5ft8/9.

I think you have to realise that being short isn’t really an issue, lots of girls are not actually fussed by height of there man. Lots of girls are short or the same height as us, embrace it. You can still be manly, imposing, strong or what have you being strong.

I say go for it and tell her how you feel, she might not laugh or say no! How tall is she??
I’ve told myself that on the whole my partner is most likely going to be taller than me and guess what it’s not caused me harm. This may seem ironic me giving you advice about relationships bearing in mind my first post on here about a breakup ( she was shorter than me just) but I can relate to height and I’m telling you that it’s not such a disadvantage, we see loads of tall single men as much as shorter men, where not any less of a man than they are.

Smile, it will happen and you will meet someone!
