How can I get girls if I'm under 6 feet tall? (Page 2)

[Luna-o3o]

I'm 5'6. I don't mind about height as long as you're taller than me.

Height? I'm 6-4 and I haven't even so much as touched a girl in almost 30 years.

You may be homosexual, that's OK, you were born that way!

LMAO and you couldn't be further from the truth. But it appears you don't like the truth anyway, so suit yourself, be happy!

I like guys around 5'10 I'm not very tall so it makes thing less awkward

[Anonymous]

I don't know how tall my ex was, probably a few inches less than you, and I thought he was tall.

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'2 and I like guys 5'10 and over :) I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Seriously? How the hell would THAT help to dissaude his worries? I googled this, and the average male height is 5'9" and the average female height is 5'4". The only remotely comforting piece of advice a person of average height can receive is that there are people of the other gender who are also of an average height - theoretically giving him a chance.

But NOW? A girl 2 inches below her gender's average has admitted her preference is one inch ABOVE the partner's average. Bottom line here is, I'm not going to judge you for having your preference, but I am going to be a pedantic fucker and make it clear that your comment is actually the LEAST comforting one on the whole page. Please don't tell him not to worry.

Whoa, chill out creative user name! I thought from what he wrote that he was 5'10! I misread the description. I'm really sorry asker!

If you aren't 5'10, there are plenty of girls who do like guys who are shorter. I have several really tiny friends (around 5' and under) that like guys around 5'5 to 5'7. There are girls who Like shorter guys and find taller guys intimidating.

From what I've seen they tend to be cute little shy girls. So I would try with those types. But there really is someone for everyone.

Thank you for adding to your original comment. I know the gratitude of an angry stranger must count for pretty little, but there it is anyway.

Also, sorry for my un-chilled-out-ness there. I was in a pretty terrible mood when I made that comment (I did after all arrive at this topic through a Google search, so you can probably guess why I was in that particular mood). You misunderstood little, I think he is 5'10". I was just commenting from an entirely different place based on my own thoughts. My lousy, 5'9" thoughts :)

Anyway, I still sort of stand by what I said, in terms of why guys should worry and why a lot of average-height men are in trouble. But that doesn't excuse the venom. I haven't found the 'Edit Comment' button on this website yet...

That's all right. It is true honestly. Guys below average will likely have a harder time sadly, but there really is someone for everyone.

I don't have a big chest or butt and lots of guys don't like that either for example, but some guys do.

There really are girls out there that like shorter guys. They tend to be really tiny themselves. And while I strongly prefer tall guys if an amazing guy liked me and he had the qualities I want in a partner I would take him over a tall douchebag any day.

[CreativeUsername_no]

Yeah you're right, the big chest-butt preference is just as prevalent as the tall guys preference. And even though I'm no great catch myself I'll always be in a bad mood when such girls ignore me. So it's pretty selfish of me to start projecting that crap on other people.

[Opinion Owner]

If you don't think you're a catch and you're unhappy with yourself, work to improve. You'll be happier and girls will be all over you.

I'm speaking from experience. If you are unhappy with yourself, you can't expect others to like you also!

[CreativeUsername_no]

Oh yeah I've definitely realised that recently! I can improve myself and will. Essentially, this height thing has just been a minor hiccup in that road, since it's one thing I can't control. But yeah I'm gonna do as much other stuff as I can.

Great job! Good luck!

[fiego]

Just ask her out...you are plenty tall.

[Asker]

There's no "her" in specific, dude.

[fiego]

"Dude" just go for it...you have nothing to loose. Just approach them and talk to them, you are letting your perceived lack of height slow you down.

[Asker]

No thanks.

[harakiri]

You're a giant to me.

[nickstaa]

You can't , you might as well give up all hope.

[chloe93]

haha ya you don't need to be 6 feet...5 10 is tall

[Anonymous]

5'10 is tall.

[biggie90]

Not really its about average since 5'9 is average for male slight above. I'm 6 feet tall and still feel kinda short sometimes around girls who are 5'10.

[Opinion Owner]

I'm 5'6 so you're tall to me.

[biggie90]

cute. ;)

[Anonymous]

You're tall enough!
