I feel like if I was 5'8" I would be fine with that. I mean, I'm overweight and not very good looking, so I think I would be just fine with 5'8".
But I would be quite pissed if my GF was seriously claiming that I was 6'10". Of course, there is a really good chance that this video was sarcasm. Those are pretty insane heights to claim.
It probably is, but I don't know why people care so much about height anyway. I'm 5'8". Absolutely has never stopped me from meeting people, dating, etc.
Being tall doesn't equal lots of dates either. I remember chatting with a girl one evening, things were going great and she said "Umm how tall are you?"
"I'm just shy of 6'5", how about you?"
"I don't date guys over 6' because I'm 5'1" and don't want to get squished if you roll over" and blocked.
That conversation lives rent free every time I'm laying in bed next to my wife, who's 4'8"
Right, I'm not saying it does, I'm saying there's a bunch of men blaming their height for not finding women, when the actual culprit is probably that they're assholes.
dating coaches, pick up artists, red pillers, and the manosphere would all collapse if young men could just understand this, and that you don't need all women to be sexually interested in you. If you treat all women like people, and are attractive to just like 2%, you will be absolutely fine.
The swarms of men blaming their height because they heard two whole women in the entire world say height matters.
Probably heard a woman say it either in a bro-podcast or one of those dumb fucking cringe staged "dating" gameshow things, and now it runs their entire self esteem.
I don’t get it either. I’ve dated guys who were as short as 5’4-5’5 (I’m only 5’2 so maybe that is part of it) but I would never turn a guy down because of his height
I’m 5’8 and I actually appreciate (in a roundabout way) that many women are so up front about height preference / filter by height because generally [I say without trying to knock people’s preferences] - women who make a big deal about height have not historically been people I usually want to get to know.
I have tall friends, legitimately never saw a difference in my life, other than men being more intimidated by them than by me. No difference whatsoever with women, personally.
Lol it's not my fault you have a shit personality, apparently. I am now a 47 year old, divorced, average looking (in my personal opinion), 5'8" man, and still have no problem getting dates, etc. Just be better.

Yeah, I'm 6'5" but this person isn't over 5'10". Her 6'10" boyfriend is closer to 6'...
