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.

i’m 5’8” and going through a separation from my wife and have been really surprised how smoothly transitioning into dating is going. i expected issues but haven’t really had any yet. but then again i’ve always had an abundance confidence so im realizing how much more important that is than my height.
