<human>: I have achondroplasia, the most common form of dwarfism. Due to that, combined with various personality traits, I have never been close to having any non-platonic relations with anyone before. 

What I have experienced a lot of instead is the idea that "only sexual deviants, fetishists and weirdos" would ever be interested in me. I have been told this in varying degrees of bluntness from a number of different people.

While I know this can't be true, it hasn't stopped those words getting deeply lodged into my mind and it's constantly there, like a mantra. It also didn't help that the only person to ever express any interest in me was some guy online, who clearly did have a dwarf fetish, and was asking me very intrusive questions he wouldn't have asked if he saw me as an actual person.

I'm sick of being alone and inexperienced, but I'm also terrified of just being a 'fascination fuck' or a novelty to someone. Because that's all I have experienced so far and it has shaken me up enough already. I don't really know what I'm asking help with...maybe just some advice?

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
<bot>: I'm a dwarf who is hung up on the fear of being seen as nothing but a dwarf, in a relationship context.
