Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Women only preceive tall men as BF material? just my personal experience?

I think anything with "unless" attached is flawed.

"Short guys can't get a girlfriend unless they're (insert desirable trait here).

So basically it's not true. Basically not all women care about height and all of them will ignore it if you have other positive traits. So basically it's not that important.

If you said "Guys with really bad personalities, no front teeth and HIV can't get girlfriends" there would be no unless. Doesn't matter if he was tall at that point. That guy is ****ed.

Just IMO. I can't say for sure because I am average height and never had it commented on.

Joe Rogan is 5'8" or less and his wife is like 6 ft. They have a few children.

He's a famous multimillionaire with a bodybuilder physique. But if you look at him he's basically just an average looking slobby dude who put effort into his life then got to pick out whatever model wife he wanted.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

In my experience women who are of middling height (5'4" - 5'7) tend to be the least picky with height. Really short girls and really tall ones seem to like the really tall guys.

But height in men is a lot like prettiness in women. It might the first thing they notice and the thing that initially attracts them, but it is definitely not the be all and end all.

5'8 here. Short acquaintance or insta-date I have been turned down twice for height... in my lifetime (that I know).
My partner count is over 50, with several LTR's with women taller than myself, and many more encounters with taller women.
Never once have I been told I am too short after any kind of relations, fling or otherwise.

Some women do have a preference, and you will simply not be on the radar of one who likes tall guys to begin with.
Same as for me, your average HB5/6 chubby girl with a cute face is simply not in my sights, at all... regardless of age or height.

current plate from OLD:
her: how tall are you?
Me: 5'8
her: I'm 5'6 and you are perfect for me
 

"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.

I've noticed the same thing. Girls who are 4'11" or 5'9" are obsessed with tall men. Women who are normal height never notice height.

Like everything else about relationships, it's a compensation thing. Everyone is looking for a partner who compensates for their own insecurities.
