Dating Life Improved After New Height?

Edit Post

Quote from: Elhemioe on October 11, 2021, 09:59:04 PMIt likely won't. Like for real. Short guys really need to stop thinking that their height is responsible for their struggles in life because 9 times out of 10 it really isn't.
Back when I lived as a guy, as a gay 5'8 man I had plenty of girls wanting to date me and hitting up on me.

And don't try to say that it's because 5'8 isn't that short, I literally have a guy friend that's like 5'4 and he doesn't have any problem with dating.

Stop blaming your dating difficulties on height and start looking on what makes you a bad person to date because that's probably the actual cause. Maybe you don't take care of yourself. Maybe you have a bad personnality. But height is very unlikely to be the culprit.

DO NOT get limb lengthening because of dating. Getting 10 more matches is absolutely not worth cutting of a fking limb only for it to grow back to incomplete functionality.

Yes you might get 10 more matches on tinder, but that doesn't really equals to more actually meaningful connections. Do you really want to end up with a girl shallow enough to decide whether to date you or not based on a 5 inch in difference ? Probably not. And the good news are these girls are a tiny majority.

5'8 isn't that short, try 5'2

Even at 5'2 I genuinely don't think it's that big of a problem. Most of the time, the one who's uncomfortable with it isn't even the girl it's usually the guy. Like most guys just won't have a girlfriend that's taller than them for whatever reason, you just have to talk to tall girls to realize that they're probably struggling as much as you if not more.
Not to mention that there's a   ton of women at and under 5'2.

Moreover, I mean even if you get less sex friends of whatever, what's the big deal ? At least you'll be 100% sure that the ones who do get to know you are the real deal. I really don't see how that isn't a win win.

wise words. thats what i think too.

This is not very wise though because plenty of data points on this forum suggest that there are small to huge improvements for men's dating life after the surgery. The following posts are just some I gathered so far. Some has quantified the improvements which are very helpful info for those who decide the to do surgery.

1. "When i first started this LL journey, my theory was that when I get taller i’ll get hotter women, have to try less etc when it comes to girls Obvs not the only reason I did it but in that regard it was a theory I can now say with certainty that yes my theory was correct Last year when i was 5’7-5’8 I would get girls but honestly the girls i were seeing were okay A couple were hot but they would test me soo much This year the girls I am seeing are all hot as fk It is a shame but the grass is indeed a lot greener"

2. "Girls as well have been taking notice too I used to know this girl who was like 5’10 and there are alot of situations where I am taller than her now she acting different too"


3. "One positive thing. I went on a number of tinder dates on the weekend and one girl said to me after I stood up "you're kinda tall, how tall are you?" I've never had that in my life so that's amazing!!!"

4. "I’m not sure my dating life for girls who were shorter than me has improved drastically. In a club, for girls who were previously shorter than me, maybe ~70% were receptive talking to me. That’s probably like 80-85% now. I think the factors here are less about height but much more focused on looks / conversation skills / confidence. For girls who were my height or taller it’s changed drastically. This part of the population was ~15% of the pool pre-surgery (maybe like 30% including heels ie going clubbing). 0% who would have talked to me before now is about 80-85%."

The following is just a quote from someone who did the surgery. You can google the quote and find the author and his posts:

"Well for once thing, I've literally been asked out by girls now. That almost never happened to me. I've literally never been in a situation where I had to politely reject someone. I get 'ghosted' a lot less. The women I meet actually make an effort to hang out/meet again. I used to think it was normal to always 'try hard' and that the onus was on the dude to make the effort. In reality, I just wasn't seen as that attractive so I was never priority number 1 these women. Now its a bit different. Its also fairly easy for me to hook up at clubs now. "

There are men who are authentic flirting machines and they only arr170-171cm  Tall.  but the reality is that when you go to a disco the woman will notice the highest one before.  then he can be an idiot or he can have a small penis.  But what being taller allows you to meet those girls who unconsciously seek height is a reality.
Sorry . My english is bad

Your English might be bad. But your point is so good. Height opens doors. Height matters especially in the beginning. And you know what they say about the beginning: the beginning is the most difficult part of all things.

Do you think this observation is correct?

If a guy's about 5'7 tall, a girl might pick up that guy, but the chance it happens might be once per six months.

If a guy is at least 5'10, girls would pick up that guy, and it could happen like once every week.

You get more choosing signals on appearance alone, you get bumped up about a point or 1.5 out of 10 in the Sexual Market Value scale. so if you were a 6 at 5'6 you might become a 7-7.5 at 5'9

I am sorry but I am kind of confused. You mean if a man is 6 ft tall, he easily attracts a woman with 5'6 tall?

A man taller than 7 ft attracts 5'9 woman?
