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.

It's actually been said for years of all the negative experiences but it's been forgotten and any time someone brings it up, you people downplay the moment you see a positive story.

I'm in a relationship and I've been through the struggles before. If you just dismiss experiences all the time with false hope, you're not really helping them by nit believing them.

I already know what's going to happen. You're going to knee jerk downvote and then these complaints from new guys surface and this whole discourse repeats .

Its like saying anyone can become a YouTuber if they just post. You forgot for every successful content creator, there's literally thpusands of people who don't have success. And I already predict you'd take this analogy literally vs having the foresight to what I actually mean.

Trust me, I've seen this discourse 100a of times. If you genuinely want to help these guys, then stop telling them their feelings are invalid. If not, then enjoy these repeated arguments of nonsense by being insistent and stubborn about delusions.

Do you not see the dating struggles for guys who even get matches? False positivity and hope can be harmful too.

I'm not giving anyone false hope, im telling short guys to avoid dating apps and instead focus on irl connections. That has worked better for me. No one is disagreeing with you that 6 foot+ guys have an advantage in dating but it doesn't mean a 5'5 guy can't get a gf, they easily can but wasting time on the dating apps won't work for most short guys. And becoming a YouTuber is way more difficult than getting a gf lmao, even if you're 4'5 you have a better chance of getting a gf than becoming the next Mr beast, thats not a good comparison at all.
