Any dating success stories?

I can't help you if you're ugly or have a rubbish personality. The latter is fixable and the former is complicated, remember Ron Perlman gets laid like tile, but aside from being famous he probably has a powerful personality (which means it can be learned).

I wanted to avoid talking about myself specifically in this sub or the other I post in, to avoid either whining or humble bragging, but this is all anonymous so why not.

I'm five feet, five inches tall. On a 'good' day. Read that again - 5'5". I want that clear in case anyone thinks it's impossible for short guys with no money to be successful with women.

I'm not ugly. No way in the Nine Hells am I putting my face up here, so just take my word for it. I was called ugly (for being short) in my teens, but thankfully facial aesthetics are independent of height. I say this not to brag - what would I gain from it? I'll probably delete this account in a few months like all the others - but so you understand I'm not an average-looking short guy, I'm a good-looking short guy in face and body, but for some I'll ALWAYS be ugly just for being short.

I thought I'd be a virgin until University. Instead, by the time I was nineteen, I had the unique experience of hanging out in a group of nine girls, all of whom I'd slept with, most of whom would do it again.

Remember, 5'5". Not lying about any of this. Got nothing to gain.

Soon after that I was in a LTR with this girl (http://art-on.ru/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/Jilles_Villeprat_18.jpg). NSFW art nude, don't click it if you don't want to see a naked girl. Gods, so much humble-bragging, but I want you to see that not only can a guy 5'5" get lots of hook ups, but he can get an LTR with a girl who is objectively hot (and she was one of several over the years). She was a redhead, too. To be fair, she was short herself, and was the shortest I ever dated (my current 'it's complicated' and mother of my child is 15 years younger than me and my height - yeah I'm one of "those" guys).

I'm picky about attraction, unlike many guys I know who will sleep with nearly anyone. Even so, I've slept with my share of women - or as Joey on 'Friends' says, I've slept with many guys' share of women.

I'm not saying you can do it too, but if a guy who is 5'5" and terrible at making money can do it, being short isn't the death of your chances.

Inevitably there will be guys on this sub who call bullshit. Nope, I'm not even telling the half of it (threesomes? having girls show up randomly for sex? All by objectively hot women? that stuff NEVER happens to short guys, I must be a liar or paid for it or something!).

If I read this post my someone else, I'd be disgusted at all the humble-bragging. I'm not certain I won't delete this post. Hopefully you, OP, will see it before I do.
