I’ve seen people consider even 5’7" as short for some reason so i’m curious if it has happened with someone

    I’m guessing you’re a man ?

    I’m 5’4 male and average looking and a bit chubby

    Dude, if you have decent hygiene, are a basic human being and treat people with respect, you will rise above all the other men who are stupid, racist, sexist, entitled pieces of shit

    The bar is set REALLY low

    Really Really low

    Also if someone rejects you for your height consider he/she is doing you a favor by signaling he/she is not mature / has fucked up priorities for a relationship

      This absolutely. I’m a 5’1" lady, and I do like my partner to be taller than me, but basically everyone is taller than me.

      If you lined up every man I’ve dated over my lifetime, you’d see men from 5’2" to 6’4".

      The right people are there for the person, not shallow bullshit. Hygiene is the best indicator, yes. Good hygiene, nice person, you’ll find success.

      When my now husband told me he was 6’3" my jaw dropped. Sure I was happy (he can reach the top shelf for me) but I seriously wouldn’t have batted an eye if he was shorter

      Date kind people, not shallow cunts and you should be okay.

      I dated one guy who told me he was 5’10". He was kind of a cunt. He was actually 5’7". It just showcased his insecurity. I didn’t like that. Wear yourself with pride. No one choses to be short/tall. Accept yourself and others will too.

      People do get rejected for their height lol, ppl are shallow, all woman aren’t saints, what you should be saying is you should avoid anyone that cares about height, theyll remove themselves and its a non issue, ive had girls attracted to me calling me 6 foot be less atteacted to me visibly when I corrected them and said im actually 5 10 no logic in it lol

        People do get rejected for their height lol

        People also get rejected for not being 300 lbs. Everyone has tastes.

        I think the number of girls out there ACTUALLY rejecting people for height is not as many as you’d think. And good riddance.

      The bar is set REALLY low

      There’s a saying “the bar for men is in hell”

      I thought it meant there was a drinking establishment for men in hell. They go and drink with the devil, and that’s where they get all their bad ideas. They’re doing shots and the devil’s like “say she’s fat”, and the guy is like “good advice bro”.

      Turns out the saying just means the bar is super low. So low you don’t even have to jump. It’s so low, it’s deeper than the depths of the earth and in the fires of hell that burn below.

      But yeah, so many men are so horrible, it’s shockingly easy to rise above them.

        How old are you, im curious if its a generational thing, like mid 20s women will straight up openly say theyd never date a man under a certain height openly in public lol

          I’m ~40, so I don’t date or spend much time with people in their 20s.

          I have seen the occasional profile demanding a certain height, but I just skip on it immediately.

          I wonder if it correlates with other attributes? I’m also very left wing so I don’t interact with conservatives much, for example. Maybe “I need a tall man and I’ll say it out loud” happens more there?
