    Dating apps tend to fill up with undatable people over time. If you see a lot of girls that like theme park rides come with a “you must be at least this tall” sign thats maybe an omen and portent not to engage.

    If you do want to date somebody like that you can also just lie. Its not like most girls will pull out a tape measure and check.

      I just swiped left on those. But it doesn’t change the fact that people have standards and one of the standards women have for men is height. It’s not entirely one way though, men are often superficial on looks too.

        Those aren’t “standards” though, those are novelties. I’ve only met one person IRL that had the kind of extreme trait preferences like you’re talking about and she absolutely is not somebody who gets dates.

      This is good wisdom. I hadn’t thought about it before, but most of my relationships that worked out were from people who had just recently installed the app.
