Short guy and women (long term + immediate_

It's perfectly evident from the links I've posted that being short is pretty much the biggest possible disadvantage when it comes to dating.

Probably worse to be ugly than short.

Probably worse to be fat than short.

One of the things about height is you know precisely where you "stand". Short guys know they are short. They are fully aware of this fact and understandably are not happy about it. However an ugly guy might not know they are ugly. Thus they are blissfully unaware that they are genetically unattractive.

However at least short guys get to blame their height if they don't make it with a girl. Whilst the ugly guy may well blame himself or something he did if he doesn't make it with a girl, when in reality he was just not good looking enough and thus never stood a chance.

Trying to put a legitimate positive spin on it

I'm like 5' tall, and pretty much done growing as I've not grown at all in a few years now. And I feel like it affects my ability around girls because I've been told flat out I'm too short at times, which like obviously dents my self confidence massively as I'm not an overly confident guy to begin with.

Women do you require a guy to be a certain height to be attractive to you even if he has other good qualities such as a muscular body, or a good personality? Also if you have a height requirement, how tall are you?

Damn I'm only 5'7 . my dad is 5'6 and mother only 5 foot! asian ftl

People can't help what they find attractive. Don't have a go at them for their preferences.

Seriously?

I'm not, I'm just saying if someone likes for in every other aspect and then turns around and says, "but you're short so I'm not interested," I'd find it a little shallow the same way as if they said you're disabled or your hair's the wrong colour.

Yes. He's hardly a dwarf.

5'7 isn't short. Yes, it is 2.5 inches below average, but mark that out with your hand, it is quite a small measure. Also, you are taller than a vast majority of women.

Imho, height only truly begins to affect you from 5'5 and below. I am 5'5 and I can feel the OP's pain.

But it won't be conscious most of the time... they just won't find it attractive.

No but he is smaller than almost every man and the majority of women.

Same could be said for other characteristics but those people still get someone.

What does being smaller matter though? There are especially tall girls who go out with average height guys, and therefore are taller than them.

However an issue I find is women around my height will easily find the majority of men taller so would in general see that as the norm for them and go for them and taller women would just think they're too tall for me

You're the same height as me OP! Genuinely would not make me consider you less for a second. I'd probably actually find it nice to have someone the same height as me
