So I have this friend who's really struggling to get a girlfriend. He's honestly a great guy, fun to talk to but trustworthy at the same time. He's also fairly good looking, in fact I used to have a crush on him when I was still single. But the thing is... He's very short. I'm about 168 cm (5'6") and he's noticeably smaller than me. I know that that's a big turn off for a lot of girls.

I tried to hook him up with a girl I knew once, but, well, she turned out to be a bitch and treated him poorly. What I've realised though, is that he also seems to be pretty desperate, which I know is another thing that a lot of people think of as unattractive.

So, what would you advise my friend to do? Do you think there's anything I can do to help him? It just makes me really sad to see how much he's struggling just because of something that's not in any way his fault.

What is he looking for, a girlfriend/boyfriend or just sex?

Well I am fairly certain the day will come that a smaller girl will come into his life and he will find happiness. I know that isn't much but time usually fixes things. I know waiting and not knowing is very hard to do. You can keep on being a friend and reassure him that you know he will find that right girl some day.

Tell him to learn playing guitar. or something that's not sport activity so it can boost his performance and without thinking about his body height. Even singer Kendji Girac is only 5'5 if you know it.

People seem to be less shallow online. The right person will come along.

I don't find short guys UNattractive but it just has to be the right guy. Desperate is a definite turn off for me though. Tell him to accept his height as its not something he can control and just work with it. tell him to get a sense of humor about his shortness. I love guys that know how to laugh at themselves. It's just one of those things that lets people know you're confident without being an asshole.
