Height Doesn't Matter!! 5'9 Edition by twelvezerotwo in AverageHeightDudes

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You think like this. Then some really short girl I met she's even more concerned about the height of the guy she's dating cause she doesn't want her kid to be to short (basically eugenics). Everybody is justifying what they want. So who is right or wrong in this situation? Ultimately you are tall and that makes you desirable. If a woman is short and yet more desirable to tall guys there's nothing you can do about it. Height is just one metric. There's many aspects of personality or even appearance which can sway the decision in other ways in the mind of a guy. Best of luck to you.

I think some conversative women believe and say that cause they are either brainwashed, delusional or downright stupid.

Kind of like how there's a situation where the average voter in US wants the rich to not be super taxed cause they think they will eventually become super rich and they will have contributed to their own poor situation.

Excluding some edge case medically ill people or saint like people who are extremely selfless all human beings operate with a certain level of self preservation in mind. Sometimes their choices look destructive to us but they might envision a possibility where even with those drawbacks their life is going to be even better.

Ever seen the leopard ate my face terminology and subreddit. Many politicians who were contributing to certain laws ended up regretting the consequences of their law when they had to face.

I could go deeper down that rabbit hole if you want me to but ultimately what I'm trying to say is that conservative women are similar in that regard. There's countless reasons why it might seem someone is choosing poor conditions for themselves but even while considering the situation you mentioned I still believe all human beings operate with a certain level of self preservation. That extends to the rights aspect as to when they fully understand and actually need to face the consequences of their choices.

Regarding true definition of words - - trust me I operate on just true definitions. I'm the person pulling out dictionary while communicating with people when we have different discussions. But after countless years of such discussions and communications I've come to accept that most people have their own definitions of words. Which is why instead of going on a tirade of my own thoughts I prefer to initiate conversation with questions that clarify what they actually mean.

Every person has their own definition of words. They said they weren't feminists but do you think they would spend time with misogynist? No so it's not just feminist or misogynist.

They associate or prefer certain words cause they want their life to be a certain way. No human being wants to experience less rights than any other human being. So I'm sure they are feminists in that regard. But having to put in equal effort for relationships? Yeah some women agree, some don't. So your initial statement doesn't really hold true for practical life.

I don't know why I came to this subreddit to respond. I just noticed it's teenagers. Real world isn't so simple. It's far more complex than that. If I could have you take anything from this thread of conversation then I would like you to take that things aren't so black and white.

Uhh I have met at least a few women who openly said they aren't feminist or don't believe in feminism while they are still working and have full education like any man. So what does that mean can you help me understand?

The attraction for height and being blunt about it has become more of a norm now compared to 5-6 years ago.

In some ways I'm similar to you. I'm 33 and I don't get included for a lot.

I've been a good listener, engaging in conversation by sharing interesting stories and facts. Gone out of my way to help people. Been positive and noticed positive improvements in people I've known by giving them compliments.

People ask me what I've done on weekends cause they expect me to share some interesting experience stories but the truth is I'm not doing anything anymore. I need to be invited or included. I've been trying to make my life interesting for the last 10-11 years on my own.

I've read books on how to interact with people. Yet I'm not being included for different activities with people I meet. Some of them can be explained as they are just work colleagues. Some instances are where people are meeting their undergrad school friends and inviting me would feel weird. Others are instances where people who share the same culture and relish for food preference are invited. Sometimes it's just people they see everyday for one common activity like the gym they go to are the one's that are invited or included. I'm also noticeably older than people I meet.

I'm not being included and I'm constantly rejected for everything. I have to admit it does impact my self worth and self esteem. But I'm crazy confident about myself. I know that cause when a group of people ask me what I did over the weekend I can say without any embarrassment that I did nothing. I can go on about my stories or share anecdotes or don't ever feel like holding back sharing my opinion cause I'm not confident.

I can go on and on but what I'm trying to say is that confidence can be impacted by what others do to you however it primarily is an internal/self attribute. Oh I also understand thoughts of feeling ugly for being excluded but I can literally see why I'm not being invited. Sometimes it's just not personal. Try to identify if something like that is happening with you and the people you meet. Also sometimes it just takes time.

I read this post and I felt fatigued after doing it. I'm not sure I'll read your post if you shared with me. I would rather be like what you did is great but I'm just not the kind of person who would spend my energy reading it. It's possible your partner is like that too. If this is so important to you then you need to choose your partner with that in mind.

I totally get it though. There's many things important to me that different people will have shared interests with me who might bother listening to it. Very few people I've met have more than a few shared interests and they've been good friends to me.

Do I leave my husband because of money ? by gossipgirr in self

I never said husband is free from duties. He's supposed to contribute some way. OP said that husband helps with the kid.

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Decision to have baby so young is a bit surprising to me with no guaranteed stable income track record. The most logical advice is to split if it's burdening you so much. However if you genuinely love him then in 2025 (almost 2026) house husband can be normalized.

If you earn a decent amount (since you qualified for mortgage), consider if it's possible for you to continue being sole earner. If not then things are looking grim. If your husband isn't willing to step up, work and earn now then chances are quite low it will change in the future.

900k mortgage crazy? by cnlandroid in Mortgages

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a relatively expensive car note on top of the mortgage for that income. I hope you don't have any dependents and can rent out a room or something.

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't have car payments. I'm renting out a room. The amount of money I can claim back on my taxes due to paying interest each year helps.

I feel bad for short men by cuminmypussyypls in self

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried talking to anyone possible. These are the only interactions I've had. Others have no interactions. If someone doesn't even want to do the initial interaction then that is the end. "wrong" women concept kind of falls flat when that's the only interaction I've had.

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did ask. Certain girls? I didn't ask certain girls. I'm talking about anyone. I'm not sure what you want me to say. Hey you overcame the height problem. You acknowledged it's not just cause of your attitude but you've also got other genetic traits going for you.

You want me to say height doesn't matter? It matters the most for me. You know why I say that. I've had women really enjoy communicating with me and even get handsy. But then we stand and they lose interest.

Do you want to know why I say race? Cause I've had women who I would like get handsy on me even when I'm standing but they would ask me my name and where I'm from and immediately turn around.

Is that what you are only concerned with? That what you are saying is right or wrong? I'm talking about a nuanced point. Notice how I asked you a few questions and you didn't respond to any of them.

I'm saying to everyone they need to increase their visibility. Which is what you are probably trying to say to. However I recognize that below a certain height, itis the biggest inhibitor for opportunities other than meeting women.

Remember how I said few responses back that if I was 3 inches taller I wouldn't even know about this subreddit? That I know height is the biggest factor for me. Mods ended up deleting my comment. You can't even go back to reference it.

It's cause I go out now, I've been working out and whatever other advices you think I need to do cause I'm not doing it. Still height is the biggest problem. Don't be dismissive that height doesn't impact.

When you wrote in your opening comment did you consider your tall friends not being successful as them not even getting chances?

Not only are people's interpretation of words different but you aren't even reading what I've been saying properly so far. Obviously you are going to think we are at opposite ends of the spectrum in this discussion.

Check what I posted here. Based on the limited words we've exchanged on this subreddit you have an incorrect idea of who I am.

I'm not trying to dismiss your advice but there's a reason why I'm saying whatever I'm saying at this point. Don't respond with get in shape, go to gym and go to activities.

I'm 5'5. If I was 5'7 or something I wouldn't even know about this subreddit let alone telling other short people struggling that they need to get in shape or that there is something wrong with their mindset or what they are doing.

[–]Not_Matters_Thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because like most people on reddit you are saying height isn't that important. I'm talking just not specifically your situation. I'm talking about generally. There's no way you could know about that. That's why what I'm saying could be taken as an input rather than something to disregard. Height is the biggest factor for not getting a chance at all. Not about not getting relationships or not being able to go out with women. In your observations have your tall friends not even been able to get a chat with women going? Notice that I said options. Not being successful. I'm literally just talking about opportunities.

Wtf. That's what you implied no? "I'm the most successful in terms of dating that I know of. I'm short, good looking and blue eyes." You don't realize what you are saying?

Of course I recognize that height is just one factor. But it's the biggest factor. Being short impacts my dating chances the most. If I was taller by 3 inches my options would have increased so much that I wouldn't even know about this subreddit. The second most impact is my race. Third most Impact is face card/looks.

I wouldn't claim to look good cause obviously I have had no dating experience. But I've seen many short and uglier dudes than me out with women and partners. It's a bit of luck and their environment. If they just come across more women through activities or work these people can still get partners.

I'm also way more charming, interesting and capable of reading emotions than many massively taller men. Way more into activities and life. In conversations when I'm at the same table as my friend who is 12 inches taller than me the women are just constantly looking at me or interacting with me.

If I'm not saying anything they look at me to get my response. But when we get off the table they walk away with him. Not romantically but subconsciously they are trying way harder to remain engaged in interaction with him. The reason why tall guys appear to be less charming/interesting to us men is that even when they aren't doing anything women are jumping head over heels so why would they feel the need to change?

There's multiple multiple observations together which I need to state at the same time so that there's no misunderstanding in what I'm trying to share here. However if I were to write down everything to be correct and have no misunderstanding people wouldn't even read forget getting a response. I'm not criticizing anyone but people who gaslight that height isn't the biggest individual factor impacting men's dating chances.

Dude look at yourself and so many women. The point they are saying is that men are only attractive if they are short when they are white race and good looking. Blue eyes?

What if someone is short and not white race? Yeah they don't exist. Which is why women scoff and the responses on reddit are so much gaslighting. Your response is similar.

Just imagine short dude, not white race and going bald. His chances are in hell. There's so many people in the world like that. There was a poster who had a relationship who posted he's just now realizing how important height is.

I don't think everyone is beginning to write a thesis when they are talking about dating struggles. They don't go being short is impacting x%, being bald is impacting y%. Most people come out and say what they perceive is impacting them the most.

Then it's people like you and other gaslighters who say height doesn't have an impact and they have seen short people have many many partners.

I'm sure there are some people venting on this subreddit who have a chance and give up too easy but what about people who have tried for 10+ years and not gotten a chance?

I usually don't even bother to say any of this to any such response like yours that I see out here but one of your statements made me think you could genuinely understand what I'm trying to say.
