So I'm curious are there any short guys here killing it online? Cause I'm sorry guys but I can't get a response to save my life and I'm a pretty good looking guy but I'm short and I've tried absolutely everything believe me!!! So I'm convinced being short is practically like being handicapped when it comes to online dating. By short I mean guys 5'7 or less. If you're over 5'7 I wouldn't call you short. Well I'd love to hear from any shorter guys cause if you're having tons of success then I must be doing something wrong still.

I am 5'9 so I don't really qualify, but I doubt those 2 inches make the difference in the huge success I have had in meeting women on-line. I hope that you aren't (for reasons of your own) blaming the height factor, when your real problem could be elsewhere. Have you maximized your profile to send one undiluted message about yourself? Used some active or unique profile pics? Worked on a strong opener when you message? If you do all these things, the height issue will fade way into the background.

Plus - on average - people lie to the degree of 2 inches about their height on OKCupid. I do not advocate this, unless you want to see the mild shock on her face when you meet. But, you may want to change your height for a trial period, and if you are still not having success, you know that is not the issue.

at 5'3" I do have some luck but it usually is for women who are looking for serious to semi-serious relationships. It also depends if the woman is shorter than you and so forth

I am 5'7" and always hear "I want a man that is still taller than me when I am wearing heals." My advice, get buff, not too buff, but buff enough.

piercemasters is right. Don't let your height discourage you. I am only 5' 7" myself. I havent had a lot of success but I do not blame my height for it at all. Women have preferences when it comes to things like that but the majority will admit that if the right guy came along, it wouldnt matter. I suggest looking elsewhere for the problem. The fact that you mention you are good looking really makes me think that it is elsewhere. You can be good looking and still fall flat on your face. It helps but a majority of online is about what you say and what you photos say about you.

It's definitely a disadvantage if you're just starting out, but if you have game, it should make no difference at all.

Don't let all the "only 6'0 guys respond" msgs scare you off
