How to deal with being under 5ft?

I've learned the hard way you can be the most confident guy around and it isn't worth one day when you're 4ft tall and look like a perpetual 12 yr old.

I did commercial and shortfilms as a kid, was first chair in every band and quartet, and lead in almost every play, I loved being on stage. I was the one who got things going at parties, I was the one who talked to the girls first at bars, I wingmaned for so many friends, but never was good enough for a girl myself.

It doesn't matter how funny or kind you are, none of those things matter when they are stuck in a child's frame. Doesn't matter how much I work out, I'm a foot shorter than every girl, I've been rejected by everyone I've ever liked without a chance.
