I'm as short as they come, but you can't let that hold you back.
This is true for others and yourself. If you kick yourself for being short, you will always be short. If you can laugh just as hard about short jokes as others, well you are one step closer to knowing that IT DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER.
Fucking emo kids, I thought you were like 5 feet fucking tall or shorter.

Well, as I am currently in the process of doing, I am learning to accept myself. "I" don't mind being short. Comes in handy every once and awhile. It's just my perception of other people, mostly females, shooting me down for it (which has happened a few times). And when I mean short, it's not just being not tall. I knew plenty of guys who weren't tall, about my height, but they were bulky, looked like short men. I on the other hand have very boyish features; I can't grow facial hair (I wish I could grow a beard, haha), I'm the opposite of bulky, I have very little arm hair, my hands are the size of most womens' (I've actually had hand-to-hand comparisons with a few women, who just wanted to do it for a laugh). Even Jason Schwartzman looks more manlier than me. For the record, I've been working out at home for 3/4 months using proper techniques (not just doing 10 reps in the morning and stopping), and I've gained a lot bicep/tricep muscle as stated before, my legs are a lot more stronger and have much more stamina and stuff, things like that, but they just don't "show" unless I'm flexing, and I can't flex 24/7. I think my small frame, small build prevents me from bulking up and looking strong.
I'm literally mistaken as being 15/16 years old by most people who I've just met, that is a fact. With that said, I believe that most women will not approach me for the fact that they think I'm 16 years old; no 20-26 year old woman is going to "want" to start talking to a guy that looks like a young teen, period, just in case I really am 16. It's not like, "Maybe that guy isn't 16, maybe he's 25 and I should talk to him." That is a fact. The only exceptions to this are if I go to places that somewhat are associated with age; going to the bar, I have to be at least 21, going to college, I have to (usually) be at least 18. Hell, even in college, people thought I was in the dual-enrollment program with the High School taking college courses.
With all that said, as a part of the new process with becoming confident in my self and more sociable, I know that I have to work around with all that I've stated above, that's just the way it has to be. I know I have to learn to joke about it. I'm not using it as an excuse not to try, I'm accepting what I am now and working with what I've got, even if it puts me at a huge disadvantage.

If your learning at a gym, get someone to spot you, or do it into a foam pit.

Remember this?
The most integral part of my post was the haircut. The photograph part of it was just to make yourself feel better but the most important part was for YOU to feel good about yourself when you look in the mirror for the next two weeks. I can accept a reason along the lines of, "I don't have $20.00 to kill" (although a haircut is $12 here) but anything short of that is an excuse.
That's what you are Mirth, an excuse. You are a sorry excuse in the way of your own happiness and you are your own reason for anxt.
This thread was a very good idea, IMHO. You failed the very task of this thread and that was to develop independent thought through social exercise. A method of understanding that there IS a social norm, and comprehending it is irrelevant. Whether or not you get it doesn't matter, whats important is you act accordingly.
Your attitude. Your attitude is very bad. Know the jesus parable about log in the eye? You can't call someone a slut because of what you learned from their profile! Is your profile an excellent summation of what you are?
This pretty much puts it into perspective.
When archetypal fool asked you to talk to people you seemed to some up with an excuse to "exempt" you from talking to people in your home town. Does your head work like this all the time?
The point of this post is, had anyone participated you would have failed still. YOU are in YOUR way. Get out of your head. Then out of your bedroom. Go to work. Go to school. Talk about work and school. Once you realize you are sick of these things because you do them every day other interests will arise. If you don't join a gym you'll still be skinny. If you don't go out you'll still be a WoW gamer who has nothing to talk about besides WoW. YOU are in YOUR way.
And your emo. Mirth, the reason you don't have a girlfriend and IRL friends is because your emo. No one likes emo. We don't make fun of them when we ask them to cut themselves, we mean it. No one wants to hang around emo ... at all.
I wonder if I got that last one across ...

Yeah, you're definitely a few days late. As I have said in a few of my other posts, I have been attempting to become more social and accept myself. I tried making chit chat with someone and failed, but will keep on trying over and over. The fact that I am going to keep trying is not failing, and is a huge improvement over how I was thinking just a week ago. Of course I'm not going to be successful and fully cured within a week, I'm taking it slowly.
And like I said, I got a haircut like, last month, lol.
If I were emo, I'd have killed myself by now. No emo could be 24 years of age being lonely, they'd definitely would have committed suicide by now.
