Girls only: Should short/shy guys give up on women?

[Bigman117]

I'm 19 and I'm short at 5'6 and I'm shy as hell and I'm a nice person, do this means guys who are shy and short aren't worth women's time since all women go for taller guys?

[drizzydrakegirl]

I am 5'0 and I have a short guy friend and we look really good together. We aren't dating or anything but he hugs me and stuff and we look good together as a couple or I don't know. He has kissed me before and it was really sweet because he didn't have to be all bent over. It's just a matter of preferences and that you find the right girl :) He's 5'5 by the way. If you want more details feel free to message me lol. I'm short af so I know how you feel

[Bigman117]

So... this guy never asked you out?

[drizzydrakegirl]

Nope, never

[Bigman117]

So you guys prob did like each other but nothing happened other than a kiss?

[drizzydrakegirl]

Yeah I guess we just have good chemistry but we're not meant for each other

I feel bad for short guys. I dont believe that they "get ladies" nearly as much as this thread would like you to believe. Most short guys just look defeated and submissive, like life just beat them down. I feel so bad so bad for them. I think 5'8 is thee tallest a guy in the west can be for him to not be considered short.

[RJGraveyTrain]

Give up? No, but access your weaknesses and improve where you can? Yes. Not just for the sake of relationships but for the sake of bettering yourself as a whole.

[btbc92]

Never. Most short men are very successful with women. My dad is 5'3, and he has been with a lot of girls around your age who loved him because he looked like a little kid, and he was very confident and outgoing. I believe him being an Extrovert helped with that.

Most women prefer taller guys because the taller guys aren't shy and resultingly, come off as less approachable because of some sort of inferiority complex.

My boyfriend is shorter than me and I obviously never had much issue with that. On the contrary, I found the fact that he wasn't bothered by my being taller to be insanely sexy, right from the get-go.

[BettyWhite]

All women do not go for taller guys. There might be a good amount that prefer taller, but at 5'6" you are taller than women 5'5" and below. Some women also don't mind being with a man shorter than her. I have dated guys of all heights, even some several inches shorter than me.

I understand the shy thing, but you need to be out there in order to be seen. If you are closed off and not inviting, some women might think you aren't interested.

[stillagoodgirl]

No just date girls who are shorter than you and from what I've seen short guys are usually hella cocky.
I'm 5'3 and wouldn't mind dating a guy 5'5... anyone above 6 feet is too tall. I prefer a guy taller or my height when I have heels but it's not a deal breaker

[BuchitaBuchys]

Tell that to the skank of my father. He's 5'2 (no taller than 5'3 for sure) and women threw pussy at him left and right.
He cheated on my mom. A lot.

Stop being a fucking babycry.

[Smmyskittles]

Short version: No. Be confident and embrace your height; no matter how tall or short.

I was working on typing out a paragraph and wasn't feeling up to finishing.

[Nate1941]

5'6 isn't even that short. If you work out and have a nice body, a nice personality, and a good sense of humor you can get a girl!

[Bigman117]

I do workout but I also know some girls don't like too much muscle.

[Rar13]

No, I just think they have to be taller then me. I'm 5'2" so it's not that hard lmao. And I'm really shy too so I'm doomed lmao

[Bigman117]

You're shy too? We got that in common i guess lol

[Rar13]

Doesn't it suck being shy though? And I can't help it 😞

[Bigman117]

Yes I feel you. It makes it harder for me to do things and hard to communicate.

[Rar13]

It's like being around people makes me wanna puke and it even worse when they actually talk to me lol

[Bigman117]

Yeah for real. Even if you meet new people you still get all nervous. Almost like a panic attack.

[Rar13]

It's like nooooo please don't talk to me. And then when they do I sound stupid giving answers like "yeah, ummmm"

[Bigman117]

Yeah me too! lol. Sometimes I wished there was this magic potion where it remove shyness from our bodies.

[Rar13]

Or an invisiblility cloak lmao 😂😂😂

[Rar13]

But I wish I was social my life would be so different

[Bigman117]

Lol I would like that! You never had a guy like "like" you before?

[Rar13]

lmao I was gonna say one but then I realized he used me and I was the one that actually like liked him... Depressing right

[Bigman117]

If you mean that he used you for sex then I'm very sorry that's messed up.

[Rar13]

I mean I learned my lesson 😂 And don't be sorry it's not your fault lmao

[Bigman117]

I mean yeah but it's unfortunate that happened. But thats good you learned your lesson lol.

[Rar13]

I mean we all have to deal with heartbreak in life. And you shouldn't give up on yourself! You sound like a nice guy I'm 100% sure there's gonna be a lucky girl who loves you no matter your height or shyness... (I need one too but a male version or I could just get a cat lmao)

[Bigman117]

I appreciate that also you're a nice girl too and funny so I know they'll a guy who loves you for you as well.

[Rar13]

Aw thanks good luck 😉 I know she's out there lol

No way! There are some fun sized girls that like dating guys that are 5'6 because to the short girls, you are tall to them. I'm 4'11 and 5'6 to me is pretty tall. The shy thing is cute to some girls and that usually tends to mean that you aren't a fuckboy, which the best sign ever to hopefully all the girls.
Sincerely, Fun Sized!
