Girls, can a short guy be attractive if he has a nice body?

[James357]

So I know that girls despise short guys but what if he happens to have a nice muscular body. I'm only 5'4 and fully grown now. After I learnt about how much girls hated short guys I began working out.. Now my body is toned and muscular (abs, defined arms) but still lean (i'm not buff at all, I'm proportional). Does this makeup for being short or do girls think short guys are ugly no matter how well they take care of themselves? I wish girls cared more about a guys body than his height :(. I guess I want a pretty kind hearted girl that actually likes my height instead of secretly wanting me to be tall. I don't think I'll ever meet a girl who feels that way :(

Girls don't really despise short guys, they might prefer taller guys. I have two friends who are majorly buff and they're cute in their own way (they purposely waddle sometimes as a joke and are very charismatic). It's personal preferences that may conflict with what you do, such as the girl wants to wear heels and still be shorter than you, to be able to look up into your eyes and feel empowered, to be picked up like in the movies and not the one picking the guy up, or believes that taller men are more mature than shorter men (false idea that shorter men will invoke maternal love rather than true love).

I dated someone who was short as I was (5ft), and ahem, unfortunately less equipped, but his good traits, morals, and stability were worth more even though I was going to be unsatisfied physically. He still dumped me because I was probably not intelligent enough for his tastes. I was very spiritual to match with his Buddhism and I was willing to change or have changed things to adapt to his tastes, but it was not what he was looking for.

Whatever you have may never be enough for someone no matter how much you change, so just be confident and let her come to you. The guy who dumped me got really upset after I left and didn't want to stay friends. I think he stopped lurking me after a few months. Even though I wasn't a match for him, I left a deep impression still.

I don´t think short guys are ugly, the only inconvenience is that I can´t wear heels to go out. As long as you are not buff it´s all good. In my school there was this 5"5 guy that went out with a girl who was 5"9 and she loved him. It´s all about confidence, girls will love you no matter your size.

Girls don't find you unattractive because you're short. It has nothing to do with being short.

The problem is that you're short *compared to them*.

If you date a girl who is also short, you shouldn't have any problems.

thats not always the case I've met plenty of girls that were super short that only and I mean only wanted a guy that was tall.. the girls viewed their future mate in terms of what her children would be like and didn't want really small kids.. sad but true
