TOPIC: Self conscious about height.

Re: Self conscious about height. 16 Nov 2013 00:58 #74410

So I'm about 5'6, and wish I was at least 2 inches taller.

Does anyone have any advice on how to just accept this and move on? I feel almost disabled in a way, in that most girls I meet are quite a bit taller than me. Slightly off putting.


I doubt most girls are taller than you. Maybe in heels they are but the average female height in the U.S is 5'4 I believe.

I'm 5'8 and still feel short but I'm starting to accept it. When you start pulling bitches and fucking them, you're gonna forget about height. Things you can do:

- Wear insoles, they add a couple inches
- Start lifting weights and get big
- Acquire currency (this is very important)
- Start doing PE (when girls see you have a big dick it will keep them coming back no matter how tall you are)
- Have style
- Have social status

At 5'6 you may realistically run into some problems - I suggest getting 2" insoles and you'll be fine. You can do things to stand out easily though. Good style, getting jacked and tanned, getting tattoos, doing PE, getting status etc are great ways to get edgier than everyone around you.

You'll do fine if you focus on looking edgy and standing out in other ways - it's very important to not look like an average guy if you are short and find ways to distinguish yourself. If you are short and have many redeeming qualities, you'll slay no matter what. Women are hard wired to sniff out success and ambition in men.

the idea that you need to CHANGE (e.g. use insoles to "feel" taller) is one way to go. But that implies that you have a PROBLEM that needs fixing.

or you can change your thinking and accept yourself.

at the end of the day, there is a mistake in your thinking. it's called "if...then..." thinking. there's a hidden belief that if something was different it would solve all your problems. you see this ALL THE TIME in here and every where else.

"if I was only a little taller, then....I'd be more successful w/women and be rich and live the life of my dreams."

TRUTH - there's some guy out there shorter than you that has no problem getting hot girls. he doesn't think his height is a "problem" and neither do the girls he's banging.

also, i think someone else is posting about hair loss...same thing. for every guy that is balding and thinking "if i only had more hair, then....i'd be rich and successful with women."

for every guy like that, there's another bald guy that is pulling hotties and not concerned about his lack of hair (e.g. Neil Strauss).

forget insoles. change your MINDSET.

I am 5'8" and also self-conscious about height. I noticed that since I started doing deadlift and hyperextensions at the gym, I have gained about 1/4" in my height due to correcting poor posture. Has anyone been able to get real height increase using yoga exercises?

eduardo's advice about mindset is good. If you correct posture and lifts, you will appear to be 5'8" and be very confident. I think the main disadvantage at our height is that we need to work harder to give off the same masculine vibe as a 6'2" guy, who can probably get away with being much less muscular and edgy just due to the perception from height.

There is no use of thinking about it too much.. just work extra hard at the gym and remember that social status trumps looks/height every time.

Very true, considering I'm taller than the average girl (without heels) I really be complaining about my height anyway. Also, if I were tall, I'd probably just end up suffering from 'tall guy' syndrome (basically just assuming girls are going to want to get with me because I'm tall, but having no idea how to talk with them).


Also remember that it is very rare for girls to approach, so the height thing is irrelevant if you don't approach. The reason why I bring this up is that last week I went out with a couple friends who are all about 4" - 6" taller than me and I was the only one approaching and starting conversations. They were content to follow my lead. Who do you think came across as more dominant there? Do not assume taller = more confident. Not true in many cases.

Another thing... I have heard many times about girls saying 6' or up. This is prevalent on dating websites. Even that night, one of my friends who has a girlfriend that I have met several times told me that her rule is 6' or up. The ironic thing is that I know one of my friends who is even shorter than me fucked her a few years ago (did not tell him this)... but yeah, that whole 6' or up thing is pretty much bullshit. It is just girl speak for "must exceed my masculinity threshold."
