I got this from the Incel Tears subreddit.

I'm guessing the guy didn't accept.

Lmfao

I wish they would look past my personality and appreciate my height.

"Also, stop telling us to take showers. If taking showers was the solution to all of our problems then we'd have done it already."

Sure it maybe tougher for short guys to find a girlfriend but at least go out and try talking to a lady...

You are not gonna find love sitting on your *** watching Hasan all day...

Get out there and try if you want love...

<username> wants to chat

As an incel, I'm fully aware of both my height and personality and don't blame women for screaming when they see how ugly I am. I scream too, when I look in a mirror.

Unless you're short yourself you can't fully understand the height thing. No amount of gym time can fix it

Getting a gf is really not that hard

It is impossible if you're socially inept.

Whenever I hear about short men having troubles dating I remember this old ABC 20/20 story:

Then work on your social skills. That sounds flippant but it is a learnable trait.

No it isn't. Don't put this dude being a piece of shit on his virginity because it ain't that.

That's how they do. There's nothing that infuriates an incel more than for their bullshit, shallow talking points about appearance to be disproved.... it forces them to consider that maybe it's not how they look, but how they are as a person that's the reason why no woman wants to get with them; It means that they're to blame for their situation themselves, which doesn't allow them room to play the victim.

I've tried. I even thought I made a few friends at work over the past year and a half, only for them to never speak to me again after leaving.

I'm below-average height (5' 8") for men in my country U.S., and I'm not bitter about it. I've also been in relationships before.

Height, or the lack thereof, is not a game-ender.

Keep trying

The world ain't gonna just give it to you. Getting knocked down is one of the worst feelings on earth, but you gotta get back up and eat that horse

The obsession with height starts early though. My daughter is 59, she has friend in high school that was trying to claim he was 510 but he is shorter than her. She didnt say anything though, she just rolled her eyes.

I'm 5'4

Lol been there myself. My only take away is that work friends are the most shallow type of friend you can get as an adult. Don't let that experience beat you down. Keep on trying to branch out and spread your wings to other places and people. Just next time don't put too much stock in work friends.

My best friend growing up was around this height and he was more successful with women than I was (he was more outgoing while I was and still am to a lesser extent a socially-awkward introvert). He has a kid now, too.

That can be a common occurrence with work "friends". They often aren't as close as you think. That happens to a lot of us. Maybe try Meetup events?

Um, yes it is.

How can you expect to have a girlfriend if you're a socially inept. Dating and being in a relationship are constant social activities.

It's like saying that cooking dinner is impossible if you're inept in the kitchen. Like yeah that's why we need to learn and grow so we're no longer inept.

You're conflating casual relationships and hookups, to actual legitimate relationships.

Being socially inept is not gender specific.

No I'm not. No idea where you even got that idea

Fun Fact: You don't even need to be the most social person in the room to be in a relationship. A common misconception is that introverts or "quiet" people can't get into relationships, when thats far from the truth.

Actually being able to maintain the relationship is one of the most difficult part. Simply getting into a relationship is just a step of many , when better options always exist

What may seem easy to some may be harder to some.

Lol. Meetup events don't work. And if someone wants to be in a relationship, then going to an "event" isn't going to just accomplish that.

This doesn't take away from the fact that being short can be seen as a disadvantage. Not only when it comes to dating, but fighting, sports, and even the job market

Incels are not introspective enough to figure out the real issue

Do you have some kind of weird idea that casual relationships can't become "legitimate" relationships or something?
Relationships don't always (almost never) start out that serious.

Lol. Meetup events don't work.

So what does work?

Pointless_Topic posted...

Lol. Meetup events don't work.

Oh, okay. So I don't have a lot of friends and even a wife I met through Meetup?

Oh, this is an alt of Crow who gets suspended or banned on every new account. Ignore him. Known red pill troll that knows nothing about relationships or women.

I never said any of these things. I'm a married and introverted man.

You don't need to be the most social person in the room. Being completely socially inept is another thing entirely. At the very least you need to know how to hold a conversation and step out of your comfort zone.

Holding a conversation means nothing if the other person isn't interested in you or gives one word responses.

Hookups are absolutely difficult to transition to real relationships because often times, one person already has the mindset that the other person isn't BF/GF material, and thus their only reason for continuing to see the person is for "pleasure". And then one person eventually moves onto the next person.

There's a reason I didn't address hookups nor use the word. Are you going to address what I actually said?

Part of working on one's social ineptitude is learning to recognize when your attempt at a conversation is going nowhere and figuring out how to transition to a different topic or when to step away and talk to someone else. It doesn't come without putting in the work, stepping out of your comfort zone, and talking to people.

Expanding your social circle and dating prospects are two different things. You don't need a social circle to date. And it's not uncommon for many people to have little to no friends, or to have work life and gym be their main focus
