"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.

Pretty sure the last study I read said that the average height for American males was around 5"10-11 and in Europe it was about 2 inches taller. Either way, when in reference to women, it doesn't matter as much as you think it does. I'm a short guy and I seem to attract more interest from taller women than short.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I'm Asian, 5'7". A bit shorter than my caucasian friends, but I was quite pleased with myself when our family went to the Philippines over Christmas and I was waaayyy taller than most people. I remember standing in a line for fast food, thinking "something's wrong here... wait! I'm taller than everyone here! Rock on!"

I'm 6ft0.75in tall (measured it dead accurately) and sometimes feel short where i live. That being said, there are 2-4 guys around who are shorter than me than there is for every guy taller.

My guess is the average English guy is easily 5'11. I do think being tall is a huge advantage.

But at the end of the day the biggest player I know, my uncle, was only 5"6 always had women.

i would say that yeah, anything under 5'10'' is short

i cannot belive you americans still use the imperial system

why do you have to decode 2 numbers, when one will do

168cm
Because 168 is 2 numbers whereas 510 is 3, right?

Anyway I'd say 5'8" is a lil short but it's not a big deal. There's a lot of cute shorties out there that'd dig a dude that height.
 

"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 think height does wonders for your "inner" game, makes you feel superior to other males. Personally I don't see it as much of an advantage. I am 6'8" shoeless and I feel very out of place most of the time. I know it has its advantages, but when you are on the other end of the spectrum it is a hassle. Cars, clothes, no doggy style unless shes tall, always having a bump on your head from hitting it on a door frame...it is really a hassle. Only advantage I have noticed is no one forgets you :)
