One of my friends said to me the other day “the late singer prince has turned down more women in a day than you could get in a lifetime”

Do you think that remark directed towards me was a bit harsh or not? Or was my friend just trying to be realistic with me?

Tom Cruise is short and still is a hit with the ladies. And he worships aliens.

It's an NT way of saying "Dude! if Prince can get girls then height isn't an issue"

Of course it helps when you are an extremely good looking multimillionaire A list celebrity actor/musician like Prince or Tom Cruise.

People have said I look like keanu reeves before. Well a 5ft8 version of keanu since he’s 6ft1.

5'8" isn't bad. I would ignore the naysayers and try to make more lady friends.

Basically the shorter you are the smaller the pool of women who will be interested in you. Its all about probability.
