i'm 5'5, good looking, and have a good muscular build to me. it drives me up a wall trying to figure out how girls view me at first tho. i know if i was like 5'10 or something i would just be looked at as good looking and what not, but i dont know how my height effects things. some advice?

Don't worry about your height. I can tell you by watching others, that height has no effect if you have solid game. You have to stop worrying about the things you can't change and go for the things you can. But if you were just wondering does height matter at all...then yes, it does. Generally, the taller you are, the more attractive you look.

fuck all this shit about being short.
read carefully what i am going to write: IT IS ALL IN YOUR DEMEANOR AND ATTITUDE

all of it. that is all there is. being short does not affect peoples' perception of you whatsoever. at all. period. anyone who is short and thinks that it does is making excuses for issues they have with their confidence or self-esteem. no disrespect to all my short brothas and sistas .

kind of blunt. but it is the plain truth. one who caries himself with confidence, who loves life, who knows he is awesome because he REALLY IS awesome, will come off as a cool, fun person, and people will naturally gravitate toward him. notice the use of the word people as opposed to women. ==> dhv

conversely, a person who doesn't love himself, who finds fault within himself and is always complaining will have the opposite effect. why would people want to be around a negative person? answer that. people have enough problems in their lives as it is. ==> dlv

that is why inner game is so important.

Look, the average girl is not big on looks. Really isn't. However, the one thing she notices is....HEIGHT. Just a fact. Every study has shown that height is about the only romance killer when it comes to girls. I know a lot of short guys who LOVE going to Japan because they feel so much more confident there. That is the thing. It matters to the girl, BUT most importantly it is a major mental block for EVERY short guy.

SOLUTION: I would look at Korea or Japan if I were you. If not that I would focus on shorter girls.

i hope they dont mind shorter guys too much because some of the the extreme 10's around here are taller than me by a little but hopefully with practice and skills i learn here and from books ill become a great pua with no obstacles.

First off buy yourself some boots or some kind of footwear for when you go out you feel a bit taller. As for women liking tall guys, this is true, but I'm sure we all dated a girl that didn't have big boobs or a big butt (Or whatever quality you look for in a girl), but that didn't stop us b/c she was a cool girl. Personally I'm 5'10", but if you can get yourself in shape, and everytime you address someone you do it with a huge amount of confidence, you'll look 8ft tall to some people.

Another Thing, ALWAYS SMILE, but w/ a bad boy coolness about you. Believe me it works and has been field tested

hahaha! that's great advice. i'm enspired after reading that like seriously i'm about tearing up.

haha! i didn't know you could lose rep point by giving them away! whatever you deserved it for that response buddy.

How do they view shorter guys? At a slightly downwards angle. Honestly, it matters fuck all. Yes, girls are generally more attracted to guys who are taller than them, but does that mean they're not attracted if he isn't? Think about that for a while.

I'm 5'4" myself, in good shape. I still have to work hard sometimes to overcome that in my own mind, but it's getting there. I've been trying this tact - using the fact that I'm short to my advantage by joking about it, whether or not somebody else draws attention to my height.

I've used this opener several times - and that's all it is, an opener - but it always gets a giggle once the girl figures out I'm joking. You see, I like to wear this red leather jacket - it stands out, attracts a little extra attention due to its unusual color - so I walk up the girl with a big smile and say "Hi! I was just wondering - do you think this jacket makes me look short?"

Last summer at a club where they were having an 18+ night, (I'm still only 20) I started talking to a pretty cute girl about how badly everyone was dancing. Then I asked her to dance with me - which I've since learned isn't a good idea - and she said no, I was too short. Well, I was a little taken aback, because it was kind of rude and she was only about an inch or so taller than I. So I shrugged and said "Hey, a man's legs only need to be long enough to touch the ground, right?"
She thought that was pretty funny, but still wouldn't dance with me. Oh well. She wanted to keep talking though, so I think my asking her to dance was the only thing that stopped things from going where I wanted them to go. Newbie mistake, I know. Good thing I generally don't make the same mistake twice.

i am short and have sarged taller women it pumps ya up

1. They don't like short guys. 2. It's retardedly easy to get ripped when you only have to lift the bench 6 iniches to do a rep.

With that said, if you manage to pull woman being short it should boost your ego x10 over some guy that tries that is 6 foot since it's a lot harder.

Shit, I've had girls who was shorter than me say I was too short??!! Then I tell them personally I'd rather date tall girls if I could than short ones cause I want my kids to have some chance of being tall--and then they get offended.

i am 6 foot tall and i went to school with a girl that was like 6 foot 2 and she was absolutely gorgeous! i didnt give a shit she was taller then me, that was the last thing that was on my mind. she was a cool as chick thats all that matterd. its all about word of mouth and your swagger so if your a pimp ass short dude there should be nothing holding you back.... and plus i have a friend thats like 5'6" and he gets girls non stop so its been done....
