"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
It's 2021, and the height-shaming is reaching catatrosphic levels

"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.

Yeah some things make it more challenging but so what? You either are in it to win it or not. Those were two of the most confident dudes I ever met. People were drawn to them. Whatever "it" is when people talk about having the "it factor", they had it.
If someone told them their height was holding them back with women they would have laughed them out of the room.
How tall are you? Curious.
Certified manlet standing 5'10.5".... But I height-fraud by rounding up to 5'11"...
"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.
Do you feel like your medium height has been an obstacle for dating?
Do you honestly feel like you are a "manlet" at 1-2 inches below 6 feet -- 6 feet being considered tall by 90% of the world's population?
Don't mean to interrogate you -- just not sure why a 5'10-11 guy feels the need to invest time into searching for extremely poisonous videos like this, viewing them, then posting them on a forum, unless he's actually 5'4 and expressing despair at his situation.

I'm 5' 8". Has hindered me approximately 0 percent.
That you know of. Women never tell you the real reason they reject you, remember that.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Agreed.
I'm also 5'8 and have never had a problem dating hot women.
Not long ago before Covid I was dating a hot 5'11 red head who loved to wear heels.
Just because a guy is 6'4 doesn't mean he has any game. Odds are overwhelmingly that he doesn't. I'm a firm believer in the 3% Rule.
If you are "vertically challenged" develop other areas of your life; body, business, $, social circle, hobbies--all affect-able.
Women love interesting men, not boring, lazy, goal-less losers, tall or not.
My most emotionally and sexually intense relationships were with women that wouldn’t make a dude’s d!ck stand at attention if he saw her on the street. Obviously, those women were very sexually attractive to me.
Of course being 6’4 is a very attractive physical attribute for a man to have. Women will immediately notice him like men will immediately notice a sexy ass and pretty face. But it’s not the end-all be-all.
And we all need to stop paying so much attention to what women say on dating sites. Height requirements are essentially sh!t-tests intended to screen out the hundreds of horny dudes hitting her up.
I’m just not sure as to how videos like this benefit anyone. There’s too much of this toxic incel stuff being posted on this forum.

if we were to follow your logical here, being under 5'8 would then be considered a very unattractive physical attribute for a man to have. it'd be the equivalent to a girl having a flat ass and average face. That kinda girl really can't make you want to **** her unless your drunk and exercise bad judgement (your beer goggles has you thinking she's a 7 when she's really a 5), or you like girls that look like her. which is far rarer than guys who like girls with sexy asses and pretty faces. in a sentence: being under 5'8 just makes thing harder, but not impossible.
“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.

Yes, that’s one of the biggest challenges of the game. You are left to speculate on what you THINK the problem is and trying to fix it (if it is indeed fixable). But that’s a whole different thread.

No, a guy with “good game” cannot any chick he wants. We have to tell the truth, gents.
Women choose you. To have your selection of hot women, you have to become a physically, mentally, and financially attractive male. Even Brad Pitt and Denzel Washington cannot get any chick they want.

You need to get a hobby dude. You have way too much time on your hands.
I 100% agree. However, I don't think the train of logic you're following is the one I've laid out.
Being a short man is considered less attractive on a superficial level because he is believed to lack strength and dominance over other men. However, in North NJ I routinely see men of Italian ancestry who are 5'6-7 with very attractive women, because they are swole, well-dressed (high-status) and socially dominant. No one is going to tease them about their height to their faces.
Short stature can be compensated for, like any other physical shortcoming.
Yes some women are not going to care that other attributes compensate for his short stature -- if he's under 6ft, he's out.
Yes some men aren't going to consider an average-faced, flat-assed girl because she can't model her ass on Instagram.
There are some cruelly shallow people in this world, and especially on the internet. That's life.
But women can, do, and will fall in love with men who are under 5'8 -- just as I am sure most of the men on this forum have developed feelings for a woman who wasn't conventionally "hot."
“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.
