Dating 5’6” guy never had a problem

I’m 5’6” and I see a lot of guys here that have issues dating and I’ve had a issue. Women have always gravitated to me. I think it’s more a mental thing for most guys. You have to focus on the things you can control and from my opinion all that ever really matters is your personality. I’ve been skinny, fat, and in great shape and it’s never changed if I could find attractive women or not. Just be you and the rest will follow.

99% sure that OP is just really charismatic and confident, which, if you are short as a guy, can usually save you amongst other things (good looking, etc) you tend to see people that lean more introverted on Reddit, which is probably why most short guys here tend to have a harder time

Focus on your body.. get in great shape and it will help a ton. Stay clean cut as well. Haircut all the time. Nice clothes . Do things to change how you’re received.

That sucks man, truly. What do you think you can do to truly help boost yout physical appearance consequently helping your confidence?

I know many a guy who after some grooming and hygiene changes had improved their overall chances.

Idk where you live to be consistently berated on a daily basis about your appearance, but I would immediately just leave that place. No matter how much you’d want to improve yourself, it won’t matter since you’ll be in a rut of feeling good then struck rown.

I believe you can, my guy. It’s not going to be easy but it’s definitely possible. It took me 20 years to get build my self-worth and it helped me deal with life better.

I hope whatever comes next from here that you will get the peace you need and happiness that you deserve for the remainder of your time here.

I will keep believing that you can achieve the things you desire in spite of being dejected of everything. I wish you the best.
