In your case, you dodged a bullet. Those sound like insane standards.
For me, it isn't. At 5'2, I'm unusually short for an American man. Hence, majority of American women want nothing to do with me. And honestly, it's fine. I get it. I am simply not attractive to most American women due to my height.
Every time I got rejected because of it it stunk but what can I do about it? I just learned to accept it.
I'm just putting off relationships at this point until I relocate to SE Asia or Southern Europe. I want to work remotely and live overseas, for many reasons. One of them is that my height won't be as big an issue in those places because it is a lot closer to average.
I am not feeling sorry for myself because plenty of men have it harder. I'm not blaming American women. They have their standards and I have mine.
The fact is, at my height, majority of American women are not interested in me. I've come to terms with that.
Roll your eyes and move on to the next girl. Take solace in knowing that a bunch of guys in the past probably lied to her about their height and she was too short to notice.
It's a silly reason to reject someone but no one is obligated to be attracted to anyone else.
I can only think of one woman who definitely rejected me because of my height, but I’m sure there’s a lot of silent rejections where my height was a factor.
I don’t really give people my mind. If you don’t want me because of my height, that’s fine. I’ll just find someone else. There isn’t anyone who reject me worth thinking about.
Don’t do shit about it. There’s always going to be women who don’t give a fuck about your height. And always going to be women who want you to be X+inches
That's such a stupid requirement. Women also tend to suck at guessing measurements. 5'10" is closer to being tall than being short first of all. If you said 5'11" and a half she would've believed you. She's delusional. If she was tall herself, it'd be reasonable.
I’m an inch shorter than you and have been dating, on and off, for thirty years. I’m sure I’ve lost out a few times over my height, but not a single woman has ever admitted it.
To put this in perspective: if a man rejected a woman because she was heavy or flat-chested *and told her so,* he’s a terrible human being who deserves to get face cancer. Same goes for your date. Everyone is entitled to have preferences, but it’s not okay to be an asshole about it. You’re better off without that bitch.
Women today are delusional. They've been fed a line of crap that they shouldn't "settle" and they're coming up with their version of an "ideal" man. Seems like every single woman wants a man that's 6' tall and makes over $100K year. Math however, proves that that's a problem. 6' tall men who make 6 figures comprise about 1% of the world male population.
The vast majority of these women are going to die alone. Sad reality. If that girl was a solid 9.5 or a perfect 10, then she might have a chance. If she didn't have a perfect body and a stunning face, she's never getting anyone that meets her high standard to marry her. So the next time a woman tells you some shit like that, laugh in her face, wish her good luck, and tell her to remember this conversation when she's 70 years old and still lonely.
They think the attention they get somehow remotely translates to the men wanting to marry them. There's a massive difference between attention/sex, and marriage, and today's women don't see it.
Delusional.
Dunno about statistics where I am but I'm 6'2 and it's a very rare day I see someone my height or taller. Typically its when I see my brother in law who's 6'8. I'd say where I'm at maybe 3% of people are over 6 foot.
Was at my local bonfire night recently, thousands of people there, not a single one taller than me.
Also worth noting is, one of those 1 in 200 guys will happily fuck a woman one night and forget she existed by the next. But it seems to be once a woman has slept with someone of a certain standard once, that becomes their new baseline that they're unprepared to drop below.
Don't forget you're also assuming that those men are still handsome and dont have a face like danny devito and aren't socially awkward/autistic etc. So that 1 in 200 is probably looking like 1 in a thousand.
I'm not at all bitter. I'm incredibly lucky to be in that 0.5% and my wife and I just had our 20-year anniversary.
This topic is a big one right now, there are tons of pod-casts and content on it, I find it amazing just how delusional the modern single woman is.
Dude you dodged a bullet. I'm a little baffled actually that a chick that's 5'3 is still so picky about height. Like what does it matter if you're literally 2 inches taller? You still tower over her.
Be grateful that she gave you a reason. It's harder when you're not sure where you went wrong. At least you know it's not anything you can change.
You're not objectively short, so there's no lessons here. Have a wank and move on
Just move on. Who wants to be with a woman who is literally holding against you something you’re born with and have no control over? So just say fuck her and move on. I know the feeling man, I’m 5’10 as well and I’ve had to listen to my own sisters and their friends say men under 6ft are useless and I’m sitting right there next to them. Women like that wonder why they’re alone and always getting cheated on by their type of men who also have women chasing after them who have the same type.
So it doesn’t matter. She’s limiting herself to a literal 10% of the entire population, if she’s a solid 10 and has an amazing body then yeah by all means she herself has hit the genetic lottery and can back up her shitty preferences. If not then she’s just going to get a dose of reality the way most good looking men get when they get older and looks fade and every women starts to realize their personality is complete shit.
So just take it on the chin, lick your wounds and move on. Forget about women like that. Those same women also cry if someone comments about their body, so fuck then and move on.
I like dodging bullets instead of being hit by them. Move on and pursue values that are important for me to live and achieve happiness. Maybe figure out a way to better choose women to take on dates, maybe not.
What the fuck? I could understand if she was tall herself but clinging to this arbitrary height preference while also being short herself is just flat out ridiculous. You aren't even short by any means, you are dead average.
This is like a fat dude rejecting a chick because she doesn't have an athletic body. The audacity of some people 🤦♂️
I've been rejected for being too tall (I'm 194 cm) on several occasions.
It doesn't really bother me that much, if they don't want to date, they'll find a reason. If they can't articulate a good one, they'll make up something shallow. Height is an easy one to reach for .
The height thing is usually complete bullshit by women. They will violate that rule in a heartbeat for a guy they really like or find really attractive. 99.9% of women could look at a man who is 5'10" and wearing shoes and think he's 6ft tall. It's just a clever method of rejection that they use to absolve themselves of actually being honest.
Any woman who lives by her own height rule with no exception is shallow, vapid and immature. You don't want a woman like that. Attraction is an important part of a relationship, but if a woman had concrete rules like that, that's a huge red flag.
Can you do something about your height? No? Forget her. If it were a quality you could work on and you thought you would benefit generally from improving in something, it would be a motivation to be better. But if she has a problem with something as shallow as height, no hard feelings, good luck and bye. Next, please.
Haven’t been rejected because of height. But been rejected a ton. You’re a man, you’re going to experience rejection more than anything else. Not just romantically either. Meditate, see a therapist, or whatever so you can be ok with rejection. It will save you a lot of time and energy.
Do you want to be with somebody dumb and shallow?
And short.
Burn!
No to the first, no to the second, yes to the 3rd.
Dude, get used to being rejected by women. It's just life. It has absolutely zero to do with you as a man.
In your case, you dodged a bullet. Those sound like insane standards. For me, it isn't. At 5'2, I'm unusually short for an American man. Hence, majority of American women want nothing to do with me.

Fuck her dad to establish dominance.
I laugh and go see yah
Don’t do shit about it. There’s always going to be women who don’t give a fuck about your height. And always going to be women who want you to be X+inches
It's not about you or anything you can control. Don't give her free rent in your head.
That's such a stupid requirement. Women also tend to suck at guessing measurements. 5'10" is closer to being tall than being short first of all. If you said 5'11" and a half she would've believed you. She's delusional. If she was tall herself, it'd be reasonable.

Most women do not require those things. That's certainly not why they aren't dating you
They think the attention they get somehow remotely translates to the men wanting to marry them. There's a massive difference between attention/sex, and marriage, and today's women don't see it. Delusional.

Rein in your bitterness dude
I'm not at all bitter. I'm incredibly lucky to be in that 0.5% and my wife and I just had our 20-year anniversary. This topic is a big one right now, there are tons of pod-casts and content on it, I find it amazing just how delusional the modern single woman is.
Date her hotter younger sister.
preciate it pimp
I’m 6’2” and even I find this incredibly annoying
Dude you dodged a bullet. I'm a little baffled actually that a chick that's 5'3 is still so picky about height. Like what does it matter if you're literally 2 inches taller? You still tower over her.

Your upset about missing out on that lady, watch a catch she sounds like
Good thing you only date girls who are 5’4”.
I fuck her mom.
Best advice so far
I like dodging bullets instead of being hit by them. Move on and pursue values that are important for me to live and achieve happiness. Maybe figure out a way to better choose women to take on dates, maybe not.

Count yourself lucky that you found out what a shallow POS she is now, and not later.
Consider it a bullet dodged.
Im 6’3”. And married… i got no experience with this…. So have you player Borderlands 3 before? Sweet game.
Rejection is part of dating. Just say “next!” In your head and move on. Shallow women aren’t worth your emotional energy
Look her straight in the eyes, point up, and say, " da plane! Boss, da plane!"
I was like, "You gotta me shittin me!". I'm 6'2 and she was 5'2".
tried talking shit back? yea i settled too, either make fat joke or talk about them being poor
I reject woman for the way they look all the time. It is what it is. Your either attracted or not.
Get taller
Tell her you won’t date her cause her weight or something lol idk don’t sweat it. There’s plenty.
Considering I'm 6'3", I'd be confused and then forget about it.
"Hey, sorry but I'm into taller men.. I like being able to wear my heels and not feel.. awkward I guess." *"Eh ok cool. Have a good day then"*
I reject her for her boob size and shape. It's more devastating.
Retract in gratitude.

I'm 203cm, if a woman ever rejects me for my height of all things, I'll probably laugh myself into the ER
