SHort Guys finish last?

[iscotz]

I'm a 17 year guy that is about 5'3". Its not really that I'm not attractive its that i get that
I am cute, and friend type. An example of one of my problems is that my friend and i usually go to the Rec. Around our neighborhood. Not just to work out but to rock climb and play basketball.
I like to be toned not bulky, but anyways i'll be standing next to my friend 5'7-5-9 or around him and i'll see a nice looking girl glancing our way but most of the time i just think she is looking at my taller friend.
Plus it has happened that i go up to a girl and start a conversation about climbing and she wants to climb. she comes over and just as i thought i might be busy over the weekend she gives one of thoses glances to my friend as she moves into my friend and uses me as a crutch.
Trust i will keep trying but a beating and a shot down like that is.....f%#@ing stupid

Only guys who are short of confidence finish last.

i understand ya pal
i got that short problem too.

because we cannot use height at our advantage, we must exceed our personality side and expose that to a great extent. let's face it, girls will only choose us in a club if we were the last guys available but in order to beat the taller ones, we must be less shy and more willing to expose ourselves in the crowd...
i understand your frustration about the girl but you can't expect to have advantage on your tall friends if you're doing something like mountain climbing...of course they will notice your height...can you dance? that might be something that you can beat ur buddies at and blow the competition away
the truth is life will not be as fair for short people and the number of girls who will fall for you will be smaller(no pun intended) than those of taller guys

girls view tall guys as being strong and confident, we must prove that size doesn't matter....at least not too small....

Yiou are right, short guys have a difficult time but it is not impossible. You know you have an uphill battle, so don't let your lack of 'confidence' and negative 'attitude' knock you down - you are going to need those two qualties the most to fight the good fight!

Its not that i don't have any confidence
most of the time i don't think about, my friends make cracks about but i dont care i just laugh it off and make some fact about how tall they are. but there really not just to me but i dont wont to be the old lonely and weird neighbor.

The Bad News: Women are attracted to taller men, taller equals more handsome for many, taller is seen as more independent, assertive, confident, "alpha-male," and over 90% of women end up with taller men.

The Good News: 10% of women don't, why? Because they're with guys who have something that goes beyond simple genetics or height. These men have charisma, a word we never hear on this site. Pretty boys / taller boys always have an advantage, but in the end, its about the whole package. A chick might be initially more attracted to your (still below avg. height) friend, but in the end she will go for you if you show to her that you're the bigger catch. Just because she used you as a crutch does not mean you're done, in fact, it means you can now get started. Drop some NEGs, use some DJ maneuvers, and you'll be the one who gets to go home with her.

One of my friends is 5'4" and he gets the most women of the guys in my pack, and he is the shortest of the four of us. I, by the way, am 6'2" and I can learn from this fella.
