Some of these guys make it seem like they have no prospects because they’re like 5’7 or whatever .

Do you actually feel this way?

Honestly myself im 6’1 and my 5’8 pal gets way more attention from women than me.

Of course thats anecdotal, but.

    When I was a teenager, I literally had girls literally tell me they liked me but that I was too short, or they’d date me if I was taller. It bothered me a lot but I didn’t get weird and bitter about it or anything. The average height of a woman in the US is 5’4" so I was still able to find plenty of partners shorter than me or the same height or even a little taller, and the older I get the less it matters. I just always think of Prince who was 5’2" and just about the sexiest human alive. The hardest part is not internalizing American society’s standards.
