"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

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.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

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.

The PUA gurus try to spin having money as a disadvantage, because they will see you as a "beta provider" (notice how they stick that "beta" in there as an insult), and want to use you for your resources. Some say they will even deny you sex because they don't want you to see them as a slvt. Obviously you don't want a gold digger, or for a woman to want you for your money. But a successful man is attractive, that's how it should be played. Women will admire you for your competence, maturity, and ability.

But the real reason to build wealth is for your own benefit.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
