How do I stop feeling down about my height?

ethical_pa · 2018-01-24T08:22:03+00:00

"the most recent one said ew no you’re short."

So you're lucky that an insensitive cunt filtered herself out for you. Why would you want to be with her? She will be old faster than she knows it, and you can potentially be banging attractive women well into your 40s and probably 50s, if you play your cards right.

Not gonna sugar coat it, height is a big thing for women. So you will have to play up to your skills and attributes. It's gonna be a bit harder for you, but you have to learn to accept the struggle and find peace with it. The alternative is not a good place to be.

bwane1 · 2018-01-24T05:37:26+00:00

are you proud of who you are? Do you love yourself?...your post projects a self pity vibe and that is a major problem.

If you have to work twice as hard, then work twice as hard. Take pride in the fact that you have a greater burden to shoulder and that a lesser man would have crumpled under the similar circumstances.

For a short guy, you have to be in excellent shape and it would greatly benefit you to learn how to fight (MMA, Boxing, Muy Thai etc.)

Lol, why does fit matter, that's like saying you are more wealthy than your friends.

Date girls shorter than you. There are millions of women, some of them will find you attractive. Prince was 5'2", he never had any problems being a sex symbol.

Women will overlook a lot of things if you bring something to the party, are you smart, funny, passionate, anything but boring?

Can you change your height?

No.

Be the short guy that still gets the girls.

Why?

Because now you stand out.

Roll into a spot with two beautiful girls that are taller than you, now you got heads turning.

Who is that guy?

What does he do?

Take your disadvantage and turn it into an advantage.

If you don’t have looks, then focus on maxing your money and status. Girls are not only attracted to looks, but also power (which is basically translated in money and status)

I'm 6' and was a virgin till 19 too.

Yes, being short does outnyou at a disadvantage with women, but that's not anything that can't be overcome.

Just work on the things you can control, and try to worry less about the things you can't. You said your physique is good, check.how about your personality? Are you funny? Can you hold a good conversation? What about hobbies? Do you do cool shit? How about your intellect, do you study hard? How about style? Or your ambition?

Height isn't everything, and the girls who laugh at you for being short aren't the kind of girls you want to be with anyways. Look for the girls that are caring and kind. And don't worry too much about the rest.

Use your height to filter women as quickly as possible and move through girls who do select according to height. Don't waste time and effort on them, because they are not your demographic.

You cannot convince a woman to date you if she likes tall guys. You might make her think twice though if you don't let her attitude towards affect you in anyway. When a woman says something about your height, agree and amplify, like its a classic shit test. Then move on immediately if she doesn't respond to it.

Keep filtering, there are thousands of girls out there who don't care about height. I am 5'5", my first girlfriend was 5'11". It was me that was concerned about our height difference, not her. I was the one who did not accept myself as much as she did.

I'm a manlet I still get laid. Girls really like guys who are nice and I'm not talking "niceguy" (aka faker who tries to weasel his way into bed with a girl).

You just have to be persistent and if you have a great personality and you LISTEN to women when speaking (many guys do not) it can be very attractive to them.

I've dated women up to 6'3".

GameAndGains · 2018-01-24T05:57:34+00:00

height does not matter. My wing was super short and out gamed me many nights. im 6'0 which is not really tall to me at least, but i guess to women that is like the cutoff (in online dating only)

You working twice as hard, is only going to make you twice as good, as a normal sized person. Take pride in that shit. You are learning a lot more per interaction than a 6'0 dude Who doesn't have to deal with the bullshit you do.

We all have weakness and strengths. Accept you are short and aim every day to out game and have hotter women on your arm then tall people.

A little ego based, but fuck it. Ego is amazing if you get it to work on your side.

OnoSekigan · 2018-01-24T07:14:27+00:00

If you feel your height is the issue, you are already putting twice the emphasis on it then most women. You can't have us help ya how to feel good about your height if you view it as a problem. What I can say however, is that you need to stop crying about it and fix your approaches, techniques, attractions and closing. That's fucking it. If you view height as your limit, it is you making excuses.

summon_lurker · 2018-01-24T08:43:21+00:00

Look up Sean Stephenson, he talks a lot about physical challenges and how to conquer them mentally.

creatorofstuffn · 2018-01-24T13:03:20+00:00

Don't spend time and energy on things you can't control.

I am 5'5" (165.1 cm) and my best friend in HS was 5'1" (154.94 cm). I couldn't do anything about my height so I improved that chunk of grey matter between my ears. Quit focusing on your shortcomings (no pun intended). Let me quote GoT:

Tyrion: Let me give you some advice bastard. Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor, and it can never be used to hurt you.

Shuuuuup · 2018-01-24T14:27:26+00:00

Just don't give a fuck about your height. Know you're cool and good period. If a taller girls likes you cool if not cool whatever it's their loss in the end. I'm barely 5'4 and have dated or hung out with taller girls. And I'm not in good shape...

sk07ch · 2018-01-24T16:01:24+00:00

Know a Sicilian guy with that height. He get's plenty of girls but yeah he is funny as hell and doesn't give a shit.

Two qualities that compensate it.

Edit: To add to it he is bold at under 30 and his voice isn't deep neither. Just very charismatic guy that doesn't worry much.

pyr0phelia · 2018-01-24T17:09:23+00:00

Having a ripped body does not guarantee getting laid. I know plenty of stupidly wealthy guys who couldn't get a girl in bed unless they paid for it and I don't recommend that path even if you could afford it. You are short, so what. Take the hit like Bruce lee would and move on.

MattED1220 · 2018-01-24T20:52:57+00:00

Yeah height is a limitation because you are making it limitation. Nobody cares how tall you are if you have other amazing qualities. I mean sure some girls will be turned off but then again i'm sure your turned off to certain types of girls.

BaconMeTimbers · 2018-01-24T22:23:01+00:00

Frame is king. If you believe it doesn't matter she'll believe it too.

CleanWholesomePhun · 2018-01-24T23:09:11+00:00

I'm 5'5" doing pretty well NOW after a long miserable before. All I can say is that you were never gonna bang them all, and that your negative feelings about your height are at least as damaging as the actual height.
Conversely, displaying real self love is hot.

recyclablebanthas · 2018-01-26T10:45:35+00:00

Your submission was removed because it breaks Seddit Rule 3#

Life_Entrepreneurs · 2018-01-24T07:33:03+00:00

height doesnt matter dude. if you get rejected, it is because of other things. Just keep putting yourself out there and work on yourself.

see it that way: if you go up to a girl, confidently, that girl will think to her self... "wait this is guy is short, but still CONFIDENTLY talks to me? There must be SOMETHING about this guy..."

shut up with the bullshit about height, work on other factors and frame it so that your shortness becomes an advantage.
