I completely understand your situation. I'm in the same boat. Volunteered to wash her clothes? I'm just a "friend". Buy her a car? I'm a "nice guy". I went on a date once and she never called back. This life of rejection is not for a man. Don't these girls know how good they have it? Haven't they watched the cartoons and tv shows where the guy gets the girl for doing exactly this? Don't they know I'm entitled to sex?

If I sound bitter, I am. It's a cold, hard world and it doesn't work out like an episode of Friends.

5' 6" is probably within one standard deviation but I've seen a lot of guys under 6' try to exaggerate a few inches and tell girls they're 6' feet tall. Kind of like claiming your weiner is really 7 inches long.

That short guy thread is still going strong I see

Sometimes you gotta just sack up and get over things, especially inescapable physical limitations like height. I see a bunch of dudes in that thread blaming their problems with women and other things on their height. That attitude just makes them more unattractive. Just get over it and focus on your strengths.

I say that as a relatively short guy.

yeah, if that thread was to believed no short guys have ever gotten laid.

[Mods Help]

I'm a short guy and I've never gotten laid.

It's definitely because I'm short.

[studyguy]

I'd rather be short than ugly or fat if given the choice.

So long as your face isn't completely busted and you look like you give half a shit about your general appearance/self worth then there's no excuse imo.

[Phoenix Dark]

Being short hurts, no doubt about it. But there are plenty of short dudes who get pussy or have girlfriends/wives. Seems like if you're sitting around moping about being small you're going to lose. Women respond to confidence more than just about anything else. If you're short and negative/scared/etc you won't get anywhere. And if you're tall and a social special fellow you won't get anywhere either...

Do short guys get bothered much by other people?

[Phoenix Dark]

I'm about 6'3 so I don't have that problem, but I know multiple short dudes who do well. And I know short guys who fail in large part due to their personality. With women there's that "cool fat chick with a cute face" stereotype personality, and with dudes there is definitely a "cocky/funny short dude who everybody likes" stereotype personality. If it's not natural you gotta work on that shit for years, honing your craft.

If I had to choose which one to stay and go, ultra violence can stay all day every day. Some games definitely benefit from gore and violence, while I can't think of any game that benefited from oversexualization.

Porn already exists if someone wants a medium to jack off to. Watching gore videos on liveleak is a very different experience than playing Soldier of Fortune or Max Payne 3.

The point can be debated, but I'd say Quiet is really a lot more overt and all of the time and it's actually worse than most of the former games (and that's pretty fucked up). Even if everybody knew what the character looked like, I'm not sure a lot of people expected some of the scenes in the game.

I think both are fine. There's something to be said about how games seem to revolve predominantly towards violent premises (probably because physical action is what is the easiest to translate into mechanics) though. Also am convinced it does have on effect on the audience and we should worry about that, even though this effect might not be as clearcut as what the usual moral guardians preach.

My girlfriend's pad when she lived on her own was a mess.
When she moved in, she bitched because I didn't let her bring all her junk into my pad. Even now it's a pain in the ass to remind her to put her shit away. No leaving victoria secret/sephora bags full of shit on my bedroom desk, put your fucking cosmetics and shit into their places in the bathroom etc. Anyway keeping clean isn't hard at all if you just take a couple minutes out your day to throw shit away or dust shit off etc.

Also when I went to her pad, I went to fuck. Not to look at all the clothes and shit strewn about.

I always open my windows before someone comes over so it doesn't smell like semen. One time I jacked off before going to sleep, and I woke up late the next day. I didn't have enough time to shower, so I went to school like that.

One girl flat out told me,"you smell like sperm."

Never again.

I've noticed it's mentally a much bigger burden to remember to do that shit than actually doing it. The actual cleaning can be pretty relaxing. (Image removed from quote.)

I get angry when I have to clean for a long as time. Which is why I just do it in small bursts when I see something wrong. Dust on my entertainment shelf or PC one day before playing something. Clean it. Window and sink in the bathroom all fucked up, clean it. Toilet one day, shower, etc. If I did it all at once I'd probably tell someone off by the end of it.

Your partner would have less of an issue with messiness than a friend since they're probably expecting to screw around. But why would you invite a friend into your room if it's messy? I did make a girl wait outside once at 1AM for 15 minutes though while I cleaned all the dirty plates/garbage from the living room to the bedroom, I warned her but she didn't think I was seriously going to do it.

There's a reason I got a house with two sinks in the main bathroom. My gf keeps it filthy over on her end. My end is like...a toothbrush and some soap on the counter. All the rest is stored in drawers and the medicine cabinet

I've had the same thing happen and I'm also the exact same height as you (without shoes lol). It's funny and sad but I don't think many girls care that you're over a certain height as long as you're taller than them, men who are really short probably just don't care to exaggerate and realize that they have some other attribute that usually works in making them look attractive.

A lot do though. Most it's not hard and fast. And it's not always must be tall either. I know shorties who don't want to deal with a guy too much taller than they are, which puts their optimal range around their height.

 

I don't see too many explicit things on the profiles of dudes but how many women who fit quite a narrow category that get messages vs the rest is telling in and of itself too about preferences.

[brawndolicious]

Except for Tinder, I'd say like 2/3 of women on dating sites I've tried are overweight (and I don't mean just thick boned) which is a big deal for both the girl and the fit guy. I've been open minded about dating women of different body types and nearly all of them were boring dates with the girls trying to hint at how much their diet/exercise has improved and just a lot of personal insecurity that kills possible chemistry.  You occasionally can meet a girl who likes herself but the last girl I met from online dating was overweight and said after a month that an ear deformity I have is her reason for not being able to date me so I think it's fair to say most fat girls are insecure and a lot of insecure people project their issue in a destructive way.
