So why is it in today's society (2022) it feels or at least to me girls are just harder to ask out?

I want to ask a girl out but feel like I may not be good enough do to I feel as if girls just have higher standards than what they use to. So I'm 29 and short 5'7. I know women preferer tall guys even ones that are way shorter than me. I don't have a career I work as cna. So what are the chances or a girl in my work place aka like a fellow cna or even housekeeper say yes. I know I can't ever date an RN since well the whole she makes more than me. I'm average overall I guess. And just want to know if I will ever get a yes. Also I've never asked a girl out. Also I live in Arizona and the girls here just seem to want that night and shinning armure.

Unfourtunately if you want my opinion i think the answer is an unfortunate yes. The reality is that in america woman have their pick of men. They'res just a lot more men then woman in this country so if you aren't above average you dont really have a chance. Im in the same place. I dont have a job emotionally im pretty messed up and my personallity is just frankly not something a woman wants i guess the best way to word it might be "a bafoon thats trying to do better but only makes things worse". I feel like thats a good description of me. I've tried my best but wonan can simply put do better than me. Im not saying you shouldn't on the contrary i think you should because if you never do you might regret it later and no one likes regrets. Personally me though I've given up now im just making peace with it. In some ways its liberating in others depressing but the reality of life is you can never have you're cake and eat it too and its the path i think thats best for me personally but your path isn't mine. I say go for it.

Tldr in the end its your choice which path you take but i say go for it in spite of my opinion on your question

You don't know until you try. Just ask them out (I'd avoid asking out ones at gyms or work though).

Sadly I don't know of other places

You don't know if it's harder to ask women out if you don't ask them out. That's making assumptions. I think you'll be surprised.

You have been brainwashed. It is really no different at all.

I wish but the vibes feel like avoidance. Like be real do girls really want a short guy

Because the game has changed. Most women today aren't looking for anything of substance. And it gives the few that are a bad reputation. You are best served to only deal with the women who show effort to you.

The fact that you say you've never asked a girl out though could be your problem.

You label yourself as short at 5'7, yet I'm the same height and wouldn't change it for anything. How you feel about yourself, and how you see yourself, is how others will see you.

They say women have more options than ever due to dating apps and social media

I don’t know there’s so much crime out there nowadays. Women are afraid of strangers.
