well totse, I'm short...like 5'2.
which isn't that bad, I mean I've gotten used to it.
but the problem is finding a girl to date me.
I don't mind dating taller girls, although they don't like to date men below their height let alone a whole 4-5 inches.
I also don't mind dating short girls(5'2 or less) but i find these girls the short ones, are the ones with the tallest boyfriends.

I mean , yay. I get to be the cute guy, kinda like your little brother(but I'm older than you)
I fucking get some once in a blue moon and it's always from a crazy chick.

so yeah.
totse.
how do you deal with being short.
or how do you deal with short girls.

Im kind of short, but most the chicks I date that are taller than me dont mind at all that Im short. Its just kind of weird for me being the shorter one for some reason.

Well, is it okay if those of us who aren't particularly short post our age, heights, and genders?

17 years old, 5'11" male.

^^buddy...you're tall...quite tall by my standards.(but feel free to post stats)

I'm 20 and I look 16, when I was 17 I looked 12 so I guess that improved.

edit: my pic is in my profile.

It's nice being tall... I'm 6'5. Had a girlfriend who was 6 feet tall and she still looked small. It's cool but dating short girls is kind of awkward because they have to look straight up.

Get some fucking confidence. I got a friend from San Antonio that is your same height, and his wife is gorgeous. On top of that she is pretty funny and smart herself. So...that means it isn't the height, it's how you project yourself.

youre 5'2"?
so does that mean you can swing your legs underneath your chair when you post on totse?

6'1" 16 years old male. Wish I was bigger, not taller.

I know exactly what you mean. I'm 18 and 5'4", and I'm always being mistaken for being 12.

My family offers this advice to short men.

"It doesn't matter when you're laying down".

If it doesn't bother you, then it's not a bother.

Im 5'9 and 160

i used to be the short kid though.

i got passed it by having a foul mouth and a witty personality.

listen I have "the confidence" unfortunately the girls I tend to meet want their boyfriends tall, dark and handsome. I'm short white and cute. I can handle that. You're buddy was a lucky exception.
allot of girls don't want to be seen dating a guy that's several inches shorter than her and looks like she picked him up at some freshman party.
I men fuck...do you know how many times I've been turned down or brushed off because I'm short?

I am quite tall, 6'4".

FYI, I know one guy, who's almost twice as short as me, is ugly as fuck, yet he seems to be popular with the girls.

It's a bit like poker - of course having a good hand is great, but in the end of the day it's all about how you play it.

No, you aren't brushed off because you're short. You are brushed off because you do not have a commanding presence. If you were to meet the guy I was talking about, you would not think he was 5'2" by the way he acts.

He wasn't lucky in the fact that he has a beautiful woman, because he has been with lots beautiful women. The point was that he chose to be with her, and the reason he had that choice is because of his attitude. If he walked around giving a shit about his height all the time, he would probably be like you...woman-less.

So I seriously doubt you have the "confidence" thing if you are on here posting about your height.

5'2 is not short.

OK, I went a little overboard.

but you have to admit, height is a big factor when it comes to women looking for a partner.
hell, it's wired into your genes to seek out the most genetically superior person you can find.

5'2 is not short.


what 'choo talkin about yoyo!

5'2 is not short.

If the average man is around 5'8", then yes, 5'2" would be considered short.

OK, I went a little overboard.

True, but height does not always mean genetic superiority. It might not be every girl's preference, but every guy has something he needs to work past in order to present himself accordingly to women. This means you are going to need to figure out a way to get past your own insecurities with your height.

ROFLMAO!@!! I LOVE YOU!

I'm only 5'6" or 5'7", 225ish lbs.

Jacked.

I never really noticed height as a problem, my friend is about 5'5 and dated a chick that was like 6'2 (and she was 16 !)

Damn...you guys are little bitches...im 6'8" 245lbs biatch

I'm 5'8" and still growing at the age of 22.

5' 11", 17 and 145 lbs.

I wouldn't mind hitting six foot, but other than that I'm pretty content.

yes.
yes it does.

I can't believe the name of Bridget the Midget hasn't come up yet.....

5'2 is not short.

*puts fists in the air*

*puts fists in the air*

*doesn't see it above all the normal-sized people's heads*

Yeah... I'm 20 and 5'4". It's not so much just being short that's such a hindrance, I think it has more to do with looking young. One can be short and still look their age. You have to work a lot harder to get girls to consider you. If you approach girls randomly, their first thought is "oh wow... sweet. a 12 year old's about to hit on me." It really does come down to a matter of confidence, though.

If she comments about your height, just say "It's ok, if we were lying together on our backs on a bed right now, I would be the taller one." If she laughs you've got the first foot in the door right there.

i'm a little under 5'3(okay, half an inch or more under? but i'll never say i'm 5'2!), but i'm female. i've always gone for really tall guys in the past, like ~6'4, but one i'm whatever with right now is only 5'9! it's pretty weird, but it's like a perfect practical height?
i would never rule out a guy just because he was shorter than me (most shorter than me and twelve or midgets..), but i guess he'd have to be reallyyyy good loooking to be on par with a less attractive taller guy. tall usually=good

Would you shut the fuck up?

Would you shut the fuck up?

haha....but seriously she makes a good point.

chiwauwah syndrome ftw

Ever see Duece Bigalow? Remember at the end he was saying every girl has something she is self conscious about. Take the hottest girl on the planet, deep down she wishes she could change something about herself, even though to guys it's really not such a big deal.

Im about 6' even maybe 6'1. I would happily shrink 6 inches to change some things about my appearance you might think are fine the way they are, or at least aren't worth being 5'6 over. Everything is a matter of perspective.

Point is, you can't change it, but even though being short is a huge fucking problem for you to other people it might not even register. Infact I know a guy who yeah is shorter than me but who I never even consciously thought about him being short or making short jokes or whatever until he used the gaming handle shortBrian. Is terrible at picking up chicks because he is so self conscious. Everyone has their own little insecurities.

I like short girls.

/has nothing to do with the thread.

It must be nice being short.

I'm average-ish. 5'10-5'11.

All the girls I've been with have been shorter, i could never get sex standing up to work.

I just say "I got the inches where it counts"

You could do wheelbarrow style, if that counts as standing up

OP:

Save up money. Get a leg-lengthening operation. Become tall.

Seriously, being short for a guy is teh sucks.

Just make sure you don't consider playing basketball after the operation.

Get some stilts or moonboots.

Damn you're short!

dude, don't worry about it... i'm 15 and i'm 6 foot... which sounds awesome... BUT I'M A CHICK FOR FUCKS SAKE!!! i suppose when all the guys my age have actually grown it won't be so bad... but when you are like a head taller than all the other guys around its a bit of a bitch.

But yeah, it's fine, my friend was dating some guy who was shorter than her and it was fine... except he was a bit of a creep so she broke it off... but what i'm getting at is that most chicks don't care about the height of a guy. Sure i would prefer a taller guy simply because thats teh social norm, but all the guys i've ever gone out with are shorter than me and thats fine too

haha....but seriously she makes a good point.

No she doesn't, she's a self-absorbed bitch and you are falling into the same trap and you don't even know this cunt.

Volleyball anyone?

OP, its all in your mind....and the reason you are having problems with women is because you are insecure and act that way. Sure, there are SOME women that may disqualify you as fuckable or boyfriend material......just like there are some superficial cunts that make the same immature judgements about clothes, car, jobs, interests, etc. FUCK THEM! There is plenty of pussy around that doesn't give a fuck.

I'm 5'6", natural blonde hair, very fair skinned. The exact opposite of "tall, dark, handsome". (Looks I'd say average, cept for my striking baby blue eyes). I've had plenty of pussy, a few great long time relationships, MANY one night stands, and a very succesful marriage. Fuck, for 2 1/2 years I was very involved with a chick that was 5'10". Even took her to her prom. Yeah, lotta peeps chuckle at the photos. Big fuckin deal! My canned response to those that would make comments? "Just less distance my tounge has to travel down". : )

What you are missing here is when you DO manage to get a girl in your bed, your height is to your advantage vs taller guys. Most women are 5'5" or shorter. In essence you are "fitting" with her better. Imagine that girl trying to do a 69 with some guy 6' +. Not nearly as easy or comfortable as with you. Ever fuck a broad standing up, like in the shower? Me, I just bend her over and go at it. Some taller dude either has to bend at the knees in an awkward position or she would have to stand on something. Plain ole missionary? While I'm banging the hell out of her, I can kiss her with comfort. Whereas if a taller dude was fucking her she would be staring at his neck or chest. Tellin ya, your height is a PLUS in the bedroom.....not a negative. You'll get more repeat performances and possibly some verbal referrals if for no other reason the "compatibility" of your body size vs some big galoot.

Just be happy with what you were born with and get over your insecurities. Not only just picking up and banging broads.....but there are a TON of advantages about being shorter. Unless you are some fat fuck, life should actually be EASIER. Just navigating a crowded mall or grocery store. Sitting in a movie seat, amusement park ride, or a couch at a party vs. all those tall fuckers. If you are a shady fuck just lurking about and creeping it is easier to be more covert

One suggestion I have to get over your insecurity is take a martial arts class. You'll learn quickly it is an advantage, not a disadvantage. I was first taught fighting by an Army Ranger. I sparred with him hundreds of times and managed to take him out countless times.....he was 6'3 and big. I have NEVER been in a physical altercation with someone my size or smaller.....always bigger. And the fact is, 99% of the time I am faster than any adversary.....plus more nimble. I can pretty much get 2 hits in to any 1 of theirs. Of course I know what I'm doing, which is most important. The point is, I KNOW its my benefit. Guys 6'+ or bigger don't scare me......I know without any doubt there is no way they are as quick as me.....even in an escape sense if things are going badly. Someone about 5'7 or 5'8.....I'm more leary of.....because they COULD be just as fast/better at fighting than me.

Ok, so chances are my son won't grow up and be in the NBA or quarterback for an NFL team. Beyond that you have an advantage over everyone else. It's all about confidence and ego bud....work on that and you'll have no problems picking up and scoring babes. Its that simple.

ROFLMFAO! Too fuckin funny!!!!

Cmon Jack....tell the OP how it is. You were in the military, if all things being equal who would you rather have at your side in a combat situation? Someone my size or someone 6'+?
I know I know....the right answer is...."whichever one of you has the radio". : )

Can't argue with that answer.

I don't know why, but I thought I read a couple references you made in past posts about a military stint. It's been months since I thought I saw that reference and have no idea where. Meh, I'm an imbecile. Agreed that enlisting in the military is stupid.....especially if you live my way in the USA.

Any how.....yeah, modern psychiatry is quite funny ain't it? You take someone that is short and because they have confidence or a huge ego, they try to minimize it by some cute little catch phrase as if its an "affliction" or "problem".

Nah, I'm just a bad mutha fucka because of who I am......nothing to do with my size.

Don't be hard on yourself. Back in highschool, a friend of mine was 4'11", and far as I know he probably still is. So it could be worse.

Lol, moonboots.

No she doesn't, she's a self-absorbed bitch and you are falling into the same trap and you don't even know this cunt.


LYK OMG CARBONB!!!11!!!

seriously dude, every time some one agrees with a women is these forums, you instantly jump to the stance of "you just lookin for e-pussy" and I'm sure that's the case usually.
but come on man. I mean if I were to agree with you, would that mean I want to stuff your testicles in my mouth?
No. of course not...




I'm allergic to lead.

Ahahahaha!


Oh and DaGuru, very nice post. It actually can apply yo my real life.

but come on man. I mean if I were to agree with you, would that mean I want to stuff your testicles i my mouth?


This so is going to be used against you.

MAJOR LULZ!!!!!!!!!!!!
omG i ALMOST FELLOUTA MY CHAIR!!!!!!!!!:D

Yeah, I made that post earlier about me being around 5'11", and it's cool because I really prefer short girls, around 5 feet tall, although I in no way would rule out a girl just an inch shorter than me, but taller would be...weird. Thankfully I haven't run across a taller girl with a good personality.

Also, you guys are cravens for being so against getting your arms and legs blown off in a desert for corporate big shots.

Moron, you're agreeing with the stereotype that all girls want tall guys. Stop being a fucking bitch about your height. That's all I'm saying faggot!

Oh, and I have no fucking clue what you're on about with this whole, "Nuts in my mouth" bit.

Lol...need I say more?

LOL.
O carbonated bee

im about 5'5 maybe 5'6 if i stand up straight, but i appear to be about 5'4, and small, a lot of my friends are at least 5'9, but many are around 5'11. I have large shoulders, although it makes me look a big stronger, it also makes me look a bit stubby. i weigh about 135, and i consider myself a bit on the chubby side, but many would disagree, so im about normal. anyways, i would glady give up many of my possessions to be a few inches taller. anyways, there are girls out there for guys like us, i've had girl friends, hell i've made out with girls about 5'10 +, they thought i was cute. it does bug me that I have a baby face though, i wish i could look older as a 17 year old (4 days from being 18). People say I look 14-16, however if i do my hair and dress up I can easily look 17-20.

anyways, I present myself in a array of manners, I can be a jerk, clever, smooth, friendly, shy, confident, and even conceded. If I can get girls, you can too, you just need to have a little more courage and talk to girls.

Lol...need I say more?


I guess that all depends. If you are trying to make some dimestore psychological analysis of me.....I'd say you have a pretty simplistic and naive view on the world.

If you are just trying to flame, then I'd say I'd rate it about a 3....maybe a 4.

In either case, you probably need to say A LOT MORE for anyone to until your lulz. Until then, just realize everyone else is laughing AT you....and not with you.

Sucks being short, doesn't it? Yeah I'm 5'2" as well. Everyone is taller than me =/

He's not wrong you know, yer gotta watch out for the small fuckers.
I second this.

From first hand experience.

:(

21 5'4 but god damn am I fuckin sexxy

Uhhhh, why is your index finger no where near the trigger guard?

Last time I checked, you only put your finger on the trigger when you want to shoot at something, not pose.

But anyways.. the grass is always greener. I'm 6'9'', its nothing special.. doesn't get me more chicks.. though the first thing I hear is usually "Wow, you're HUGE!" "Jesus, you're tall!" "Are you a fucking giant!?" Having all women except for the cavemen or super-leggy look straight up to see you is rather.. awkward.

Im 5'7, I wish I was 5'10. You dont want to be short.

I'm 14 and 5'10" or so, I can pass as 17 usually. Yeah, any girl under 5' has to basically look straight up at me.

I men fuck...

I know this was a misspelling but still, I couldn't resist.

this sounds like me... i'm 5'5 and i'm 16 days from being 18, 137 pounds, a bit on the chubby side but people say i'm pretty ok.

i'm happy with how i am. If i stand up straight i still feel great, even though i'm short.

Being short means you can have sex standing up.
I'm way too tall for it.

Now stop whining, no one cares if you're short, including almost all the girls you'll meet.

I guess that all depends. If you are trying to make some dimestore psychological analysis of me.....I'd say you have a pretty simplistic and naive view on the world.

Lol, laughing with me? Who the fuck gives a shit about that? You also sound like a queer trying to "rate" my post. The point was made, and now I'm just sitting back watching you self-destruct.

wow i thot i was the only one who was small? i guess not

nope, there seems to be a few of us here on totse.

It's hard out there for a shrimp!

I'm about 5'7 and 137 pounds and it is much harder to get a females attention, I agree. Height is probably the thing women are pickiest about, they want to feel protecting and like their being held in daddys arms! If you're really tall you can get girls without trying!

Anyway, I suggest you get lifts for your shoes or even elevator shoes. They have lifts that go up to 3-4 inches, which can really boost your confidence and dramatically increase your chances with women I don't have them but you can find some great ones online. Just make sure that you dont take your shoes off until the girl is at the point where she really likes you and can look past such defects (or better yet, never take them off if you want to be safe). Building muscle also helps, some of the best body builders are of short stature because its easier to build muscle.

Make sure to dress in ways that make you look taller/more slender as well. Look this up online. Unfortunately being under 5'10 is a huge disability in the dating world (probably akin to being a fat chick) so we have to work harder.

If you're really tall you can get girls without trying!

If only.

17 and 5'4". Getting girls is no problem, being short doesn't matter when you're confident...and being good-looking doesn't hurt either so stop caring about your height and focus on yo face, muhfucka.

lol wow, the rampant insecurity in this thread is amazing. Why is the first thing most people are posting is their height? Lulz at ingrained subconscious pissing contest over the internet.

Anyway, its ok dude. Short or tall, big or small, its not what you got but how you use it. In any sense. Take Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson, and Bruce Lee. All short dudes.

I would suggest asserting yourself and establishing more of a dominant aspect in your mind. Youre a man. If you want a woman, no self doubt should get in your way. Despite any hindrance you can overcome that and make yourself better. Why? Because all human beings possess the same potential. What differentiates us is our will to use it. You can.

And by the way, I'm also short

If only.

If you're fat, ugly, pimply, abnormally skinny, no money, shitty car, have a shitty personality, smell bad, are not neat, are boring, or a combination of any of these but are over 6' you can usually get an attractive girl. Usually the guys that you see on the street and say "why is that girl dating him?!" are usually really tall guys.

On the other hand , if youre 5'2 but have a billion things going for you it's going to be extremely difficult to get girls. It's just the way darwin works. I can't tell you how many times i've seen guys who are 5'3-5'5 with great confidence, handsome looks, and strong personalities get rejected over and over again and I really feel for them. i always hear women talking about tom cruise whose not even that short, they call him "half a man" and shit.

im only 5'8" 145lbs and i have no truble picking bitches up.

Man fuck all these tall jackasses.

I'm 20 years old, 5'3 and weigh 130. A lot of that weight is muscle by the way. Oh yeah, and I have the Napoleon Complex.

The advantages about being short:

1) Because of our small stature, we dont need to weigh as much. Pound for pound, muscle for muscle, a shorter person is much stronger than their taller component. I outdo my friends who are like 5'6 in shit in pushups and situps because I'm pushing less weight with the same amount of muscle, and the distance between my chest and knees is much shorter, allowing me to do more in a shorter span of time.

2) You gotta admit, the view is WONDERFUL down. "Hell no I'm not staring at your breasts, they just happen to be convieniently at my eye level"

Those are the only two I can think of right now. Yeah, being short sucks, but you gotta use what you can use.

Oh and to the prick that said they'd rather have a short person next to them in combat - SHUT THE FUCK UP! I want a tall person so you can take all the bullets for me.

Things I hate about being short:

1) Tall fucks think they can throw you in the backseat because they think you dont need as much leg room.

2) Reaching things. Nuff' said.

3) Having to buy tight fitting t-shirts in the children section. I feel like such a pedo...

4) Tall people thinking because your short you can be pushed around.

In my book, anyone over 5'4 is tall.

lol wow, the rampant insecurity in this thread is amazing. Why is the first thing most people are posting is their height?

Cause the tall-fucks are claiming to be short are trying to be gay and emotionally connect with the OP.

Cause the tall-fucks are claiming to be short are trying to be gay and emotionally connect with the OP.

ahahaha, true. I don't understand anyone over 5'4 saying they're short..and when they do....

ahahaha, true. I don't understand anyone over 5'4 saying they're short..and when they do....

Well, compared to me.. (I'm 6'4)

Being tall kicks ass though. This way some chicks don't even have to kneel.

And yeah, you can be insecure about ANY height. Seriously. It's all about what you do with it.

being tall can suck, im only 6' and i bump my head into shit all time especially on the stairs. I swear my house was designed for someone no taller then5'10"

This will make someone laugh:

I have a pizza delivery job atm, I'm 19, 5'5

When I got out of my car on halloween to bring these people their pizza there were a lot of people in the street because of course it was halloween and this bitch thought I was trick-or-treating. I just laughed like it didn't bother me..

So it did bother you?

But you got free sweets, right? Sweets = win.

And what has this got to do with being short anyway?
