Hello, everyone! I'm 18 and I'm joining the air force. So, lately, I have been bitching about my height. I'm 5'7.5 and I really dislike this height. I've been stuck at this height since I was 13 (yeah, 5 years straight of zero growth on height). I been trying to accept my height because I don't see a growth spurt happening anytime soon. Not only that, I'm quarter Asian. Also, this is the worst part too. I have a half brother who has a different father than me. His dad is 5'6 and my mom is 5'2. And somehow, he's 6'1. My dad is 6'0 and same mom; and somehow, I'm 5'7.5. Shit makes zero sense. So, I would like to know if most girls do accept my height when it comes to dating.
Yes, I would date someone who is 5'7.5
Nope, you better go in that kitchen and drink some milk. 🤣😂
To be perfectly honest, I'm only a little but taller than you (at 180 cm) and there's no difference. Basically, women will either see you as "tall/good enough" (which is usually over six feet) or "not tall/short/not good enough" (which is under six feet). Nothing else matters. However, I learned to stop trying to impress women. If one is meant for you, she won't care about height. Sadly, MOST women make a huge deal out of height. And like I said, everything under six foot is in the same category to them, with the one exception being if you're under six foot AND shorter than them. That's probably the only thing that's worse, in their eyes. But even if you were 3.5 inches taller, it would literally change nothing with them and your dating chances.
Being short does NOT make you undateable. Once girls get out of Teenie-bopper / High School mode they will want more than a tall guy. There are TONS of resources online to help with confidence, flirting, dressing well, asking for dates, building attraction, etc. Do some research and learn a few things. Dating is a skill. Do what is necessary to get better at it. You will discover that YOU are the one that cares about you being short.
some men like short girls, some like tall girls. some women like tall guys, some like short guys. (not to exclude the gay men and women, sorry) All this to say that there’s someone out there who’s looking for someone like you. There’s some girl out there whose ideal guy is 5’7. You just have to be patient lol 🌟
Honestly, it depends where you're from some parts of the world the average height of men is 6'2 while others' 5'9 or 5'7, it's not a bad thing to be a little shorter than you'd like, it's genetics and you couldn't control that. Maybe try dating shorter women it'll make you feel taller
If I love the man it’ll be no problem. Love makes way for plenty of exceptions and looking past things. But if I don’t already love the guy and have to get to know him, then no it’s not gonna happen. I like a male who is a few inches taller than me.
Nutrition won't change your height if you don't have the genetic predisposition for it. You can only disrupt your height only a little bit if your growing but eating much less than you should.
Height is a weird thing. My dad was like 5'7. My mom was around 5'2, maybe. I' look just like my dad did at my age except I'm 6'2. The only other person in the line who was even 6' was my paternal maternal great grandfather (my dad's mom's dad)..
If you're joining the Air Force you should be happy you're not taller. I'm just shy of 6 feet and when I had to spend a couple days on a Navy ship for work I was glad I wasn't taller given all the places to bash your head.

The problem for me was that most and I mean MOST short people are sneaky and it’s such a turn off. My boyfriend is 1.93 cm and is a better human generally. I’ve really made a lot of experiences where most of the “tall” people I’ve met are better humans generally and the short people are less to me. Sorry.
@john23232323 It sounds so silly, I know, BUT that really has been my experience. EVERY SINGLE vertically challenged person I met has been sneaky and vile.
you've probably met like 3 short guys in your life. Maybe it's also how you act around them. If you imply that it's a bad thing that they're short than of course they'll get angry. Personality has no correlation with how they look physically, some of the guys you met have acted like that because of the environment and some short guys have great personalities because they didn't let other people's negativity affect them.
