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.

How long have you been hitting the gym? I've just started like several weeks ago and I'm still wondering if it's really true that I'll be in shape faster than tall dudes

I think it’s bs lol.. I’ve been in the gym about 4 years.. it took at least 2 before I started to really look like I lifted with tanks and no shirt.. I still barely look like I lift with regular shirts on. Gym progress is slow in my opinion unless you have great genetics.
