"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

At a desired height difference of 10", a 5'5" man would have to pursue a 4'7" woman

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Average female height ranges from 5'6-5'7, thus a man of similar stature can easily accentuate his height via footwear and the like, so as to be significantly taller than MOST women on this planet

Really though, @MatureDJ , when even Peter Dinklage has been able to snag a non-dwarf, I'm baffled as to what you're fixation on this subject is

I've dated plenty of women the same height or an inch or two shorter than me.

Focus on other things you are lacking. It's not height trust me. That's just the excuse you keep hanging your hat on.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

A lot of guys say that to get around women's height bias, you just date shorter women.
I've always thought the woman's height is irrelevant. No matter how short they are, they still want that six foot guy.
Because they want the guy who stands out among other men.
It's not about their own height, it's hypergamy. There's nothing special about dominating a woman physically.
They want the big guy who can protect them from other men.

Forgive my impertinence, nonetheless I believe the following analogy can benefit many fellas, yourself included:

Dinklage did what was required to gain what many describe as "high status", DESPITE his possible disadvantages, same way gents like Michael Liebowitz here
spend their 25 years+ in state pen educating themselves both formally and informally, rather than passing the time as most convicted felons do: Snorting dope, playing dice, watching sh-t tons of TV, and fantasizing about how much better things would've turned out, if they'd been born into different environments

The conscious decisions Dinklage made are what allowed him to "mog" other men, surely as the choices Liebowitz made led to him becoming a published author and celebrity commentator, while he was STILL locked up

So, are you going to go to work on yourself ala. Liebowitz, or are you going to be the dating and mating equivalent of a convicted felon who laments his circumstances, as opposed to finally investing in himself/altering the thoughts and behaviors which are sabotaging his prospects for securing The Good Life?

100%. its not about the height of the woman vs you, its you vs other men around you that she can see. and it does make a difference. the workaround is if and when the taller men give you respect and defer to you.

I have worked on myself by becoming a very astute and successful equity investor - and the financial gains have allowed me to consider spinning WealthGame, although that obviously is fraught with traps.
