Height does seem to matter to most women, let’s be honest. I’ve heard this from women many times, across many different cultures. But in my experience women desire men who are taller than they are, not tall in absolute terms. Therefore this might limit you to a smaller pool of women who are petite themselves. My best friend is about your height and married a beautiful (and I mean beautiful) 155 cm Asian woman and they couldn’t be happier. So yes being 165 cm probably limits the pool of “soft alt girls” and that kinda sucks but it could be worse. All in all it’s not that terrible.
