"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.

Because I always see people mention with their preferences I want a guy that is at least 5'10. Isn't 5'9 average?

No bashing in this thread please. For instance when i look at myself in photos or in the mirror, i look a bit short. Yet how do woman who are like 5'4 may think a guy who's 5'8 be short? I mean since I am 5'8 and if i see a guy whos 5'11 he definitely looks tall.

If you are not at least 6'0 you will never have sex with a good looking girl. Give up now and go become a priest / monk / pastor. Well you might have sex if you become the last one...

You can't start a thread like this and not expect it.
 

"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.

Girls tend to like taller guys because they feel safer with them. Its part of a woman's instincts to choose a mate that will protect them. Being taller or more muscular helps with being perceived as a protector. So if you're shorter, you have to show in other ways that you can protect her. This doesn't mean you need to pick fights and stuff to prove your manhood, but doing other things to make up for it.
Basically height isn't going to be the determining factor in attraction, you might just have to work a little bit harder than a 6 foot guy.
Yeh! Is any of you guys able to link something of this post to TESTOSTERONE? Testosteroned males don't think like wusses and thus women COMPETE for them. Tall can translate to dominant but testosterone always tranlsates to dominant!

You guys are all making a pointless debate!!

If you believe that height is all important and that you're doomed because of your height... You're going to be insecure. And women are NOT attracted to wussies, period!!

A confident men, who thinks, knows and acts like he's the ****, doesn't matter about his height! Why should he? He's better then the other guys in some way!

Most of the guys are AFC's. I am really tall and when I was a socially insecure AFC I couldn't get any chick at all! The AMOG of my group is not tall and he gets women VERY EASILY. And I used to be very beta and most of the guys in my group were shorter then I was.

The only difference is that now I changed the way I THINK. Insecurities are insecurities, and a healthy MAN that women are looking for has confidence. Because he does something useful with his time (turn of your pc man!) and his life has some real value.

The idea that height is tremendously important has to get out of your AFC head. You don't deserve women if you let something like that get you down. Physical qualities don't make a Great man. EOD ! Go do something manly insetad of complaining, chump! :D I got no respect for people with the victim mindset (stop blaming whatever it is for your lack of sucess wimp!) and they don't deserve any either.

"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.

5'8" is fine. Luckily you're still taller than most of the women you'll meet.

I'm Asian, 5'7", and I don't even think about it.
I'm only 5'6". It doesn't matter. Maybe you're attracted to women taller than you. For me I'm naturally attracted to females around 5'0" to 5'5". Around these heights, women are just beautifully stunning from head to toe.

As long as you're at least an inch taller they won't complain. You'll hear chicks say they want a gay taller than them with great body etc. That's not the majority. Most women actually don't care as long as you're not a midget compare to them.

Like Night Owl said. Work on the inner stuff!~

For me 5'8 is fine and I tend to gravitate towards tall guys. I think you should start to worry when your like 5'6. 5'7 is like eh, but still passes depending on the guys qualities.

at 5ft 8, with tight game, a good lifestyle and dress sense etc then you could pull any standard of woman, even the ones that "only go for tall men".
seriously.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I suggest going to another country. Seriously. I mean, yeah, a guy with movie star looks can get girls at 5'8, but not a normal looking guy.

Seriously, why are you such a duchebag?
