"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.

Suppose any of you guys happened to start dating a woman whom you seemed to be getting along with so well-she seems to feel as attracted to you as you are to her, the chemistry is intense, you feel special in her presence but there's just one rather somewhat wide physical difference between you both in terms of height: you're tall and she's really, really, really short compared to you. Such is the case with the woman I just met and who I talked about in my previous post. I'm just slightly over 6'0 in terms of height while she's much shorter than I am...not even close to 5'9. But then again, you could get a tall woman who's unbelievably arrogant and whose personality doesn't match with yours. What do you guys thing? For me personally, height hasn't ever really been much of an obstacle but the difference in height between me and this particular woman is quite wide.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I guess that depends on the woman in question. There are some small girls that are really hot. But i like it when they have great shape - bigger boobs is a huge plus - and short girls tend to have smaller ones (in proportionality to their body mass of course).

Nah, i guess i dont find it that important. Sex is always a fun thing, and requirements shouldn't come in the way.

I had a feeling that this thread would be about girls being tall enough, and sure enough that's the case. I find it interesting that men find tall women attractive, because I am just the opposite. I am really attracted to short women (maybe 5'2" to 5'6"). Of course they have to stay fit too. There's something about them that just oozes femininity.

Height isn't a dealbreaker for me, but the shorter girls are the ones that are real turn ons. I imagine that this is the origin of the slang word "shawty" - it refers to the fact that women are generally shorter than men. It's almost like a neg in itself, if you think about it, since it refers to the inherent physical stature and inferiorty of women.

It seems odd to me that men would be attracted to taller women, when women are generally shorter than men. To me, it's a feminine trait.

Agreed... Buuuuut there is one problem when they are significantly shorter than you and that is having sex while they are standing :( my ex got so p!ssed off that I was so tall and couldn't do it so I would always end up picking her up and to add to the broken bed ;) we also fell through a wall once when I slammed her up against it. needless to say the landlord was not impressed.

On the other hand I loves me a shawty because they are so easy to pick up and throw around in the bedroom.

just could never date a chick that was taller than me it isn't right
 

"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.

for LTR height is a deal breaker, I am tall so I want my kids (especially sons ) to be tall , I turned down many good women for LTR just because of their height . I cant stand to have short sons.
for STR tall are more compatible with me , but shorts are not that bad too if they are beautiful.

Dear Frank,
I am about six foot tall,short Women are fine in bed that's for sure,but on the Dance Floor which is very important to me.height can be a non sequiter....I had a Lady turn up on a blind date to Dance,she was tall,my height,but exaggerated this with incredible heels....Why,why,why?....For many dances,cha-cha,jive,Rock'n Roll,you have to get your arms over your partners head....can't be done if they are too tall....sometimes the Male executes a turn of his own,with a very short Girl,again very difficult....As an interesting aside,on my scene there are two incredibly tall girls both are very beautiful,both are Russian....one would be the closest to a ten I have ever seen,she is also a Phd earns big dollars....Both these Women,wear heels and are without partners,why?

I'm around 6 feet tall and prefer woman no taller than 5'7". Preferably around 5'5" or so. Don't really like them when they weigh more than 120-125 either. 5'5" and 115 is perfect. :) I just like smaller, petite girls.

Her height isn't critical except for the following:

1. I don't like really tall or really short.

2. Like Scaramouche says, her height matters for dancing. If she's too tall, if I don't reach high enough, I can risk "clothes-lining" her with my arm during underarm turns (in many dances), the bridge in Hustle, etc. lol.

But generally, I worry more about her judging MY height at 5'10" than me worrying about hers.
 

"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.

My woman is 5'5 and I am 5'11.. I love the hot long legs. I dated a 4'8 woman before. I don't like it that short. Imagine your poor short kids.

OP, you are 6 feet and she is 5'8? What is the problem here again? If you like really short try dating a midget. She can suck you off standing up.

Like rock and roll dancing, a big guy and a petite girl can do anything they want. I wonder if this is also why women like tall men?
Yeah, I think that guys liking shorter women would be the mirror image of women liking tall men. That's why I find it surprising that so many men like tall women. I don't really understand the appeal.

The OP wants a taller woman.

Always found shorter women to be more appealing. I'm a short guy myself (5'5) and have little to no interest in women taller than myself. I think women on the shorter side are physically built more feminine too. Just my opinion.

I haven't found short women too appealing until I left basic training. My current LTR is 4'11.5". I'm 5'11" and it's been a very good relationship thus far. I dare say my best yet. The differences are mainly in height, that's it.

Your various responses are very interesting. But I thought that in general, children tend to mainly take the genes of their fathers...meaning therefore that if a man his tall and his woman very short, there's still a greater probability for him to have tall children rather than short ones?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I like women who are shorter as well. I think they generally have nicer bodies than taller women. I've also never been a fan of long legs. I keep hearing that 5hit in songs about a guy who likes a girl with long legs. I don't get it. Long legs usually means short torso. I think it looks awkward.

My "ex" was under 5 feet. I'm about 5'11, and I felt freaking awesome. She had to sit on my lap in order for us to kiss.

However, we had mind-blowing make-out sessions. Once at a park and I saw a couple of deer running infrount of us while we made out. Once, in the islands across the city, and in the night when bats were flying around. I had never had such a passionate and intense experience with anyone like that before. It was a real romantic adventure.

We went to allot of places together and she expressed a child-like enthuasim for virtually all of them. Like historical villages, or just places around I went to when I was a child with my parents, I took her. We went riding together and I remember she bought bike to ride with me. When I go to a bike store and see children's bikes, sometimes, one of them will look like the one she rode with me in.

Her hands were like a 8 year old girl. Short fingers. It was like going out with a kid. Really brought out that child in me. The positions of dry humping were awesome. However, I felt like a perv, like I was going out with a young girl in elementary school because she was too short. She's 29 y/o when I dated her. Took her seriously but dumped her because of her past. She had Turner's syndrome which means she can't have kids.

Am 5'11". Strange but I've only been with a couple of women under 5'6", they average about 5'8" with some over 6 ft, never had a true shortie spinner, they gravitate elsewhere. Have never been successful with average height and shorter women for some reason, so no, guess it's not a big deal for me.
 

“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.
