1) Bruh I am fucking shorter than you, at 5'5" and don't have any problems. I've dated taller and shorter girls, but it never got in the way. You are 5'6", which is kind of average. No excuses.
2) This seems to be the real issue holding you back. Be true to yourself, and let go. Specially after 2.5 years. She moved on, so can you.
EDIT: My post sounds harsh as heck. But honestly I think sometimes one needs something like this to snap back into shape. Heck I know I wish I had someone tell me stuff like this in the past.
But what if you're older and everyone you know is married but you (older than 30).... I feel like I'm lagging behind everyone because I started my career later and didn't want to get into anything serious until my shit was together financially... Kind of regret that now.
1/ 5ft6
I am getting dates though. But definitely feel like the height is a bit of a barrier.
Not the end of the world though & not much I can do about it.
2/ Agreed. I guess I still had some feelings for her & our breakup had more to do with where we were in our lives rather than fundamental issues. I think subconsciously I had hoped we'd run into each other again.
Yeah, at that height unfortunately some petty picky women would be jerks about it. They ain't worth it anyway They seem to only want 6'6" hulking giants of men anyway or something lol
Any girl with a height requirement gets an auto left swipe on dating apps by me. I am 6'5" but I can't have that type of negativity in my life
Dating a single mother with two kids is hard as fuck. I'm 30 with no kids and I've never dated a mother before...
This has been a complete mind fuck so far. The more I read online about it the more mind fucked I become.
Fuck... she's so amazing too.
An eye opening experience to say the least.How is it man? I've thought about it too but I have no idea.
An eye opening experience to say the least.
...
An eye opening experience to say the least.
1. Attention. Her kids (3 year old and 1 year old) require constant, nonstop, attention. They sleep in the same bed as her as well, so when I'm staying over, we are all sharing a bed. We have almost no time alone together. If I want some quiet time with her, it's from like 11pm-2am (her kids don't fall asleep until 10:30pm'ish) and I have to wake up for work at 6am.
With this being said, I completely understand that her kids will ALWAYS come before me, for the rest of my life. I will never be her priority. I get it.
2. With me not having a kid, I am surprisingly bothered by knowing the fact that our shared experiences in life (kids, marriage, honeymoon, etc.) will be cheapened by the fact that she has already had all these experiences with another man. It's not equal footing. It's new for me, but this is just yet another time for her. She even admitted to me that if we have a kid together (her 3rd) it won't be the same as her 1st was with another man.
Again, I get it. It's just hard to accept that these major life experiences together won't be the same for her as they are for me. I can't help but feeling like I would be feel alone and small when they occured.
3. Raising another man's children. Everytime I see them, I am reminded that she has already been there, done that, with another man. This other man will always be a part of her life, and an emotional connection will always be there to an extent. It doesn't help that he is still messaging her saying "I miss you" etc.
It's hard as fuck playing 3rd wheel. Again, I get it. This is just the way it is.
4. I have my own emotional baggage from my childhood due to stepdads, etc. That asshole stepdad who I irrationally thought broke up my family? Who I had to see all the time and I hated? I realize that now I am "that guy".
In conclusion, I feel like I am being used for emotional support, for a father figure to another deadbeat's kids. I get almost zero time with her and I have to accept that I will always be a 3rd wheel in her life. The hardest part about this is that she is an incredible woman, and without the kids, I would absolutely feel comfortable marrying and starting a family with.
TBH I've met a few of those and they were all nice, well behaving girls. Many have those requirements anyway even if they don't write it anywhere.
Of course it's unfortunate, but girls like a taller man and that's online dating for you where looks and "specs" matter the most.
Sounds like you're already married lolAn eye opening experience to say the least.

They may be nice but that type of statement is frankly off putting to me. There is a difference between thinking something and actively putting it out like you're proud of it.
They totally have the right to put what they want and say what they want. And they have the right to be as selective as they want. And I as a result have the right to be like "naw fuck that, I think it's poor character"
Everyone has to be aware of the realities of online dating. But also, you dont have to just accept anything just because.
Why ghost? Because no girl knows how a guy will react to rejection, especially if there's only been one date. She barely knows you. A passive rejection makes it easier for her.Girls, why do you this?!
Is she still sleeping in the same twin-sized bed as her ex?So found out a girl I'm going on a date with broke up with her long-term boyfriend suuuuper recently... Like a month ago. Having been in that position before, I can assume she's probably seeking something casual?

Assume nothing. Know what you want, meet her with the intent of having fun.
If it's raining, you know what to do.I've been talking to this girl and she wants to go out but I'm kind of having trouble suggesting stuff as 1) she lives in the sticks 2) I live in the sticks and 3) weather is damn horrible so outdoor things are no-no.

If I'm in a club and see a girl I like, should I just go to talk to her or should I make some eye contact first? I went to a club yesterday and there were some girls that I liked, but they didn't make much eye contact with me. So, I was thinking if I should have just went to talk to one of them and don't pay attention if they were looking to me or not. Any thoughts?
Let me ask you this, why wouldn't you go and talk to them? There's a lot of shit going on at the club, it's probably not easy to see you
I didn't go to talk to them because we made little eye contact. They could see me, there wasn't any people between us.
It seems he is the only person you feel comfortable with and so you try on him but if he's not reciprocating, then it might be a sign to move on. Then again, maybe your flirting is so low level it can be considered just being friendly. Have you tried any other avenues of seeking a partner?I'm developing feelings for my roommate. I don't know how / if I should say anything, I've been getting flirty with him when we drink and he doesn't seem to mind it but doesn't really reciprocate. Neither of us have been in a relationship (lol). The stinger? I'm transgender and have known him since before transition. I know it's a horrible horrible idea to try to make this happen for so many reasons and yet I find myself thinking about it constantly. I'm basically looking for permission to make a bad decision.

Eye contact is all you need, didn't you know?My point was the eye contact doesn't matter, just talk to them.
Hey guys, a general question for everyone. Do some women wear rings on ringfingers even when not married? I am interested in someone, and she is somewhat flirty with me. But she has a ring on her left hand ringfinger. I am not sure if she's married, and i cant think of an offhand way to ask in the work environment that we meet in. I'm pretty sure women wearing rings on random fingers as fashion is common lately. If I find she is married, I would not persue her further.

So gaf, since I'm horrible at reading women's signals if they are interested in me or not I would like to have some advice.
How do I know if they are interested or just being overly friendly? My boss has a cute daughter that works as a female massager and nail technician at the gym I work at. Mind you she has a boyfriend and I would never flirt with someone that has one. We never talked that much over a year ago but since I've gone down in weight and started training roughly 9 months ago we started to talk to each other. we talk from time to time and lately I've noticed when we talk she looks into my eyes and smiles a lot. Just a few days ago she asked me for help on choosing finger nail polish for her finger nails and showing me how to apply it. During that time we talked she turns her head toward me and smiles a lot of. She even let me hold her hair when it was in the way a few times.
I'm probably over thinking about this and she is just very friendly to me. I never had a female friend so I guess this is why I have a hard time knowing stuff :/

It sounds like you two are being playful. I like to play around like what you've been doing. The holding hair bit is confusing to me, though.So gaf, since I'm horrible at reading women's signals /
My point was the eye contact doesn't matter, just talk to them.
Don't wait for eye contact from across the room, just talk to them. Clubs especially you usually know pretty quickly if she's not interested in you so just stop talking to them if they're not interested.
So asked girl if she wanted to go to this Christmas market together next weekend, her response was "Got preliminary plans with friends, but will let you know whether they're going ahead or not "
I've had more definite instances of being fobbed off, but I've experienced enough to know she probably won't just get in touch again and say "I'm free ". I'm going to leave it though, want to appear aloof, and if she wants to, she wants to I guess.
Make alternate plans.
Do not alter them, even if she ends up contacting you.
Making other plans is the test. People have friends, they are important. If she agrees to other plans which aren't at risk for overlap, she wants to see you.Yeah, good shout guys. Always a chance it could be genuine, but if you want to see someone, you want to see them. A little tired of game playing, but I know it's all part and parcel of it.
Been feeling quite good about being single and not tied down recently, it's really nice.

I've been dating a girl with FFs for about a month now and joking telling every girl I know that I'm never dating a girl with smaller than DDs again.
They call me sexist and shallow. I respond by asking how it's any different to a girl wanting a guy who's 6ft. They don't have an answer.
Yes, exactly. As I said, just try some other event or other time and make your intentions clear. No use in playing games, acting aloof, making other plans on that same day and ignoring her if she reaches out. That's bullshit.
So many people assume game playing or will tell you to move on unless a girl is practically throwing herself at you, which is silly.
