"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Do short women not like tall men?

I was just wondering if anyone had a problem where the chick felt a guy was too tall for them. Sort of a reverse discrimination thing lol, sinc usually its the short guys that are judged. I am 6'2 not a giant or anything but the girl is 5'2 so it is a whole foot.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Actually it seems shorter girls tend to prefer taller guys. Like they feel they need the protection or something. Maybe you just look like a geico caveman?

Everywhere you want to be.... I'm like a Visa card
If its a really big difference, like you're over 6ft and she's under 5ft, then you guys just look weird together.

But if its a reasonable difference, it doesn't matter. Girls tend to prefer guys to be taller than them, and guys tend to prefer girls to be shorter then them. It works.

"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.

I don't know but I know I'm not a big fan of short girls.

I'm 6' and was bangin this girl that was about a foot shorter than me a while ago. Didn't like it one bit.

There is something about tall chicks that I really dig, maybe because its more women? Actually, I'm pretty sure
its because I like long ass legs.. anyway, I'm digressing here.

I'm 6'2" and my girl is 5'2". It doesn't really matter much when you're horizontal.

Whether there is a tendency or probability weighting or not (and that's all there will be), I ask you...why worry about it?


You can't change your height, so do what you can and see what happens eh?


Too many people ask questions, and not enough find out for themselves. Fact is, experience will crush the doubts that theory cannot solve.

wow... people.

i felt an urge to go into a big, long reply.

but it's just easier to say that everyone has their own preference.

do a search btw. you are in no way unique with the problem of height.
 

"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.

Yes, everyone has their own preference. And every relationship is slightly different. Too many blanket statements on this site. Too much waffle. Maybe short sentences are better. Though this is. Getting ridiculous now. Nuff said.

Well a girl I'm seeing is 5'1 and I'm 6'2. She told me once that she "didn't want her kids to be too short, so I only dates guys over 5'9." Its an advantage man.

i'm 6'5 and have noticed that at times its harder to get more on the girls level (non-physical way). Kind of like they are intimidated or just lack of connection because physical they aint their with you, so it puts a psychological factor at times...

However other then that... My last gf was 5'2
