cute-bald I conclude you are not clued into the real scene for short guys.[/QUOTE said:
I am not clued in!! I am 5'6 barely with a disability, I invented shortness!!! :D

if they are deleting you it could be due to the height thing but it also could be the message you are sending, you gotta figure these women get tons of messages, most of them are lame and ask crap like so how big are your boobs or whats your favorite position!! also ahhh hi how are ya doesnt seem to be catchy either, you gotta get them hooked into ya, say something like Oh I am sure ya get hundreds of emails a day from guys telling you about how they are divorcing their 6th wife or finally being able to get a full time job etc etc

its original, its catchy and it lures them in. It has nothing to do with how tall you are, your self defeating attitude is your worst enemy
 
You need to read more carefully..........................

... when I was 6' , they were putty in my hands. 5'6" & no hello!

You are lucky. No woman has ever been putty in my hands (even if you were bullshitting), I have to use a ton of charm and wit just to get a date.
 
There is a disproportionate number of women on those sites that are 5'9" and up so if you are very tall, you have a distinct advantage there. Women generally seem to prefer guys that are at least 4 inches taller then them ... so they can wear their heels and still be shorter than the guy. Few women have the confidence andself esteem to date guys shorter than them ... even with their heels on. And most women will not give up their heels for a guy .. any guy.

I concur with dragnbiz...lol

You can even go as low as 5'6"

I think in general woman always want to "look up" at a man because it makes them feel safe.

speaking from some experience on these sites POF, Lava Life etc, yes its full of gals who are very high on themselves and expect a guy who looks like Clooney or Pitt to contact them and has about the same type of income!!

Yes, I think their expectations are a little too high - they have a long grocery list of what thet want in a guy. Here is one from "ABEAUTIFULSMILE" (a cute petite looking 30 yr. old blonde from Toronto)

Musts (minimums):
-university educated (I come from a highly educated family)
-ambitious
-Christian (practising or not)
-European or Caucasion
-good values, morals
-5'11 or taller
-very stylish
-outgoing
-between 28 and 36
-fit
-nice straight, white teeth (teeth for me are a big thing & do break the chemistry)
-charismatic
-chivalrous (I have traditional values and strong morals)
-take good care of yourself - know how to look & smell good

Pet Peeve - lack of manners, tattoos, lack of interpersonal skills, slouching, lots of body hair, heavy set.


now I happen to have all those things except I am 5'10" so I guess I shouldn't bother :rolleyes:
 
thats how the story goes on Larva Life...i understand some have meet their love of their life.
But i pretty much ditched all possible Toronto Girls... if they are transplanted gal than i try...i specially pick on my own size ^_^..i wouldn't want a lady to feel awkward to date.

Yeah, I saw her profile years ago...she is attractive.

If I was you, I'd give it a try and send a smile. If she doesn't respond, then you know you're not attractive! :D

In general women are always the "choosers" especially if they are attractive.
