Some of these guys make it seem like they have no prospects because they’re like 5’7 or whatever .

Do you actually feel this way?

Honestly myself im 6’1 and my 5’8 pal gets way more attention from women than me.

Of course thats anecdotal, but.

It is a real thing in dating sites and whatnot that many ppl won’t date below a stated height threshold, in that sense it does literally add difficulty. I have been told “x would never date you, you’re too short” on a couple occasions and some other weird remarks over the years. but generally people who are going to filter potential partners by height are generally to be avoided anyway imo

Nah. I’ve never had any trouble dating due to my height, it’s always been my abhorrent personality that keeps people away.

I’ve never had any problems and I’m barely 5’6".

I was not out trying to date supermodels but not everyone is so shallow that they have to date someone taller than them.

I think the influence of height is wayy overstated.
