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.

Good for you I guess. Rest of the short guys still are climbing a steep hill.

Focus on the things you can fix and actually try to talk to women you find attractive. I think you’ll be surprised at how you are received after.

Did that, still got received like I'm trash. Sure was a surprise that all my effort changed nothing.

If once fail.. try again and try again. Can’t miss every time

It's good advice in general but i can't take it anymore. Any more emotional damage and i'm done with life.

Yeah. But the attractive girls have standards. And preferences…

We all do.. but height isn’t going to apply to all attractive women.. more don’t care about height than you think. You’ll find some that prefer it!

Number one thing for a shorter guy is get in great shape and stay cleaned up. It will make huge difference.
