Why can't I date a taller woman?
post #1

I simply cannot. I totally freeze up.

Ive had gorgeous women interested in me. Within the range of 5'4 - 6'0 (well the 6'0 was average, but whatever).

 

I get the mental picture of... being her shorter brother? Almost like drowning. Not knowing who is in charge.

That other people will not accept it, so I will FOREVER be trying to assert myself. That other men will flirt with her in front of me, secretly or openly laugh at me/us etc.

 

More to come if this gets replies.

Brother, you need to get that idea out of your head! You will face rejection at your height more so than other guys because of rampant heightism, which we all believe influences dating choices heavily, but you're going to have to think like Boris (who we all believe is around 5').

 

Your style is going to have to be on 10, along with your charm and your game face has to be impervious. You're about 5'2 which is Prince, Kevin Hart range. Use this to your advantage (e.g. fun fact during conversation). But be sure your grooming is on point. I'm not going to give you the confidence mumbo jumbo, but really look into your experiences to learn dos and dont's. 

 

Most importantly, expect rejection, and walk in with the attitude that you don't care what happens.

This is a society issue that we are all trying to tackle. You're going to deal with the flirting issue because people are douche bags. Stand up for yourself chap and get used to it.

 

I had to deal with that when I would go to clubs with my ex a lot. As for the "shorter brother" thing, that is in your head. Something like that will show her that you are insecure about you two being together.

 

Us short guys get accused of this insecurity thing a lot even when it isn't true most of the time so you can't let her think that you are.

I reject this completely. One can easily live without a woman... lots do. Lots of tall people as well ... its called MGTOW.

A woman has to be interested in me over other men to start. Without that, I will not approach, its a two way street. The problem is, when they ARE... that I freeze up.

This could be why might have issues. I get feeling a bit more confident when a woman approaches you or shows interest, but there is no way to realistically detemine that she is interested in you over other men. She could tell you that, and show you that, but still be lying. Come on, even an avverage woman is going to have tons of men approaching her. That's nature. You have to show her why you should be her choice. This changes if a woman is disrepsecting you. For example, a friend of mine had a woman take interest in him after he approached. However, she stood him up three times. Obviously, he is wrong for taking her seriously after being stood up once.

 

I take it that other guys were probably talking to her and she didn't take my friend seriously as a result. But they were talking on the phone every day. No one is talking about whether you could live without a woman or not. This topic was "Why can't I date a taller woman". Especially being a shorter guy, it would be intelligent to assume that she is going to have men of all heights approaching her (especially if she is an average height woman herself, which you mentioned).

 

If they are interested like you said, then my advice applies. Your should be on your A game. Your charm and game face should be impervious. Most importaly, you should be yourself (sounds cliche), but you are unique and she should be interested in you. Otherwise, forget it and move on to the next one. You have no time to waste (unless you want to waste your time).

Aren't you guys afraid of taller guys? See, The way I see it, there is a downright instinctual reality - when you are taller than the girl, even if a taller (than you) guy comes along - you can offer the same stuff to the woman, and its understood he is a douchebag instinctually by other members of the species. But if you are shorter than her, this doesn't apply as much.

minilinebacker - how tall was your ex?

I'm not afraid of taller guys at all. Not sure why you'd be. One of my ex girlfriends is 5'7. Two inches taller than me.

Strange. Why SHOULDN'T you be?

They are taller, and generally heavier/stronger?

I'm strong and heavy too! I bench 315 and box. I'm not scared of someone just because they're taller.
