[Mixed Drink]

Tell him to look in the mirror.

take a guys weekend getaway. go to a nearby city and stay there and chill around the city and see a ballgame or two. get him out of his old weekend routine.

Sounds like he needs either therapy or medication or both. He should really see a doctor.

If you srsly think he is depressed, make him see a doctor. Soon. Treatment is so easy.

Maybe make him do test: http://www.med.nyu.edu/psych/screens/depres.html

Unfortunately there is no known cure for being short. Goddamn, 5'4" is short.

A lot of chinamen have been getting that leg-breaking treatment for shortness. Might be worth looking into.

Sounds like what you're saying is that without a female in his life, he's gonna be depressed forever. If that's the case there isn't much you can do except try to get him outta the house to meet chicks

I think this is it.
Him being 5'4 is gonna make it almost impossible. If he was really cool, was fit, and had money, there would be hope, but it seems thats not the case.

"I don't want to attract someone who's only interested in my looks. Besides that's not who I am anyway."

Translation:

"I'm 5'4, whats the point in trying?"

5'4 would seriously suck.

Well, he could move to some Oriental country where he's just regular short instead of the "wow mom and dad thanks for getting your short asses together to create incredibly short me" short that he passes for here.

LOL what a miserable thread! The guy's life isn't over because he's short. He's just folding the rest of his disappointments into that.

I'd say he needs way less leisure. A career path is in order.
