"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Are Taller Girls Harder To Pull

Id like to confess that I find myself mostly attracted to taller girls, say of height 5'10 or up and excluding the lanky ones because I like my girls with some meat on their bones. Call it a tall women fetish, its not as weird as being a pedophile. Kinda similar to those with an asian fetish or MILF lovers. Anyways, whenever I spot a girl towering over others in a club, my heart pounds like crazy, I am turned on to the max. She may not have the prettiest face out of all of the girls there but I am willing to make a trade off. Having mentioned that I get anxious, maybe my behaviour isnt as smooth as it usually is with other types of girls. So I always get blown off whenever I hit on one of these. On the other side of the coin, it could be that they are more demanding than other types of girls even though other types of girls are prettier. Granted I am not a short guy, 6 foot tall to be exact. I blame it mostly on me losing my cool when interacting with them. What do u guys think?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

If you're super short, you'd better run some sick game and be charming. If you're tall, you're a lock (assuming you have some charm).

Generally, a woman doesn't want to be taller than the man.

Yep, just like how in most cases a man doesn't want to be shorter than the woman.

Tall or short, they are pretty much the same. The only thing you have against you in the tall category is that you have a thing for tall girls. This might cause you to care too much and end up hurting your game.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

In hell. I'm Satan's lover.
They don't have as much choice believe it or not and would love to talk to you, tall or short. If you're taller than them though, that's a slight plus! ;)
If not no worries.

my ex was 5'11 - she felt awkward about her height because she always felt she had to hunch when taking pics, etc.

some girls look at it very positively - others don't. you won't ever really know until you talk to them. it's one of those things that you don't really want to generalize about because it does you no good. just do your thing.

but, LB makes a good point - because you have a fetish for taller girls you might end up caring too much that you just ruin the pickup.

I'm freakishly tall, but I find a common ground with tall women (6'1" and up)

I have no problems hooking up with tall chicks, but then again the tallest ones only come up to my shoulders.

Being tall with women there are 2 things I notice.

1.) Some are overly ****y and aggressive for no reason

2.) Some (most) are shy and really insecure about it.

I find it that they're all pretty much the same tall or short it just depends on the girl but I don't think the taller ones particularly want taller guys although it sometimes looks like it, all you really need is a sick game....

I'd say maybe to an extent, but for the most part it will depend on the woman.

I read an article of a local paper where they talked about 3 couples where the woman was taller, and they talked about how it didnt really matter. They said at first it was different, but then it all kind of didnt matter after.

One woman was 5'11 and the guy 5'7

I know some women who say they'd never date a shorter guy, but I think they would if they weren't TOO short.

I think a woman will take a difference of 2" or so, but if its 6" or something larger, more than likely not.

Oh no, she is 5'7 and he is 5'5, not gonna work. At that height you'll barely notice.

Like for me, I dont usually go scoping out women that much taller than me cause I like the shorter petite girls, because they fit me better. BUT if one comes along and is my height or a bit taller, I dont give a rats butt, its all up to her.

Some women are really picky about that, some aren't. I like to use the... That's nice your boyfriend is a bit taller than me, but he is still a wuss and I am still stronger than he is. You want a STRONG man or tall one? :D

I like my height for what I do, and the taller you get, the harder it is physique wise, or if you body build.

My favorite thing to do though is when I get a short joke from a guy, or even friend, and they have a woman with them, I usually go... First... I'm gonna kick your ass, then i'm going to steal your woman right in front of your eyes.

One day one guy said... I've seen him do it before.

Works good when you have a fit body. You cant be fat, and a slob and short and say it. Even the tall guys get very scared, especially if they know your stronger than them.

Another reason to hit the weights. Not my sole purpose, but its fun when you can use something like that on dudes.

Go to the gym, and you'll see tall guys who can barely lift their grandma. I LOVE IT.

And btw... even though I like short small girls, I have thing for some tall ones with those LONG legs. Man what a turn on.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I think you nailed it right there!

For other guys look at what he said. They only other part of the equation is how girls are self conscious. They try hard to look their best and not look bad. A lot of girls live up to stereo types. So you have to take that in to consideration. However; if you know this and you understand their dilemma than all you have to do is make them feel comfortable with you. Never hit the truly sensitive areas. When you neg hit her don't hit her height. Pick out something completely different. Something like her clothes, her laugh, or body language.

My boyfriend is 5'4" and I'm 5'8". Oh, and I asked him out.

It boils down to confidence, masculinity, and maturity. There are a lot of other factors mashed in there, but those are the three big ones. My short boyfriend is more confident, masculine, and mature than all the 6'3" guys I've ever met.

As for taller girls being harder to game, I wouldn't say so...tall or short, girls are girls. A tall girl wants a guy to sweep her off her feet just as much as a short one does. Some girls refuse to date shorter guys, but those aren't the kind of girls you want to be with anyway.

Easier because they get hit on less... Hence you have less people to compete with over them... Case closed...
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I'm dating a girl who's 6'3"; I'm 5'11". It's less weird than you'd think, and to be honest I find the whole tall thing to be pretty hot. The only problem stems from that it can sometimes be kind of hard to initiate things with her, unless we're sitting down...

In the case of really tall (over 6') women it's an advantage - they're just used to being taller than almost everyone, plus a lot of guys just don't want to be with them for whatever reason, so a lot of tall hotties are highly approachable.

Of course they're also as rare as hens teeth.
