Search Results: liking a girl

Pretty simply question, to which I sort of already sort of know the answer, but I'm more or less curious for people to elaborate in terms of the specifics as it relates to how they deal with height when in comes to online dating.

I'm a short guy, about 5'5 with shoes on. I'm a decent looking dude, and I've had a handful of girlfriends in my 30 or so years of life, but when it comes to online dating, I feel like my success is not at all in line with with the success I should be having in terms of my overall looks, career, profile quality, etc. It's especially interesting to use and pay for the apps like bumble and tinder that then allow you to directly see who finds you attractive. In my case, the only people liking my profile are people who I would consider to be 3/10 at best. when I know I'm at least a 7 and most of the girls I've dated have been around there as well. This has made me wonder if the reason for this is that in an online setting, people are simply filtering me out by height and the only people who are even seeing my profile are really unattractive people who are too desperate to even care who they are dating. They're just happy to get a date.

So if you're given the ability on the site, do you filter out height and where is your cut off if you do.

There’s a girl that I like and tried moving on from twice on a couple of dating apps and in person with other girls, and she knows that. I’ve never felt this way before about anyone, until now. Some of my friends told me that I can do better, but I truly like her and don’t care about anyone’s opinion. Although, she’s 19 years old and I’m 28 years old. I drew a flower for her awhile back and I’m going to make a glitter pumpkin for her tomorrow and give it to her on Monday, when I see her. I care about her and want what’s best for her in life. I’m always asking her how she’s doing, always showing my concern for her about getting the coronavirus and always helping her out in general. She’s special to me. Just curious, if girls can end up liking guys they previously didn't? She’s only 19 years old and still has a lot to sort out in life, so maybe things can change and we can be more, than friends. She’s currently not looking for anything right now, which I’m respecting.

Weather it's personality quirks, a blemish, a scar, stretch marks, like SOMETHING/ANYTHING? Like we got models out here that seem too perfect, get what I mean? Sure makeup could be hiding their flaws or plastic surgery or something. But like they are so attractive that at the same time you kinda lose interest? I'm of the mindset that you kind of "wear your history". Like they just feel totally unrelatable/fake or something? Is this just a me thing or can anyone relate?
