is 5'8'' so short to girls as to be offputting?

A bunch of guys at uni called me (screaming actually but nvm) an oompa loompa and quite posters online think 5'8'' is actually short for a guy and most girls want someone who is at least 5'10''-5'11''+

i think that was a really mean comment from those guys. 5'8" is short for a guy for me personally but i'd think you'd find many girls who would be absolutely fine with that height so don't worry x

I am a 5ft 7 girl. There is nothing wrong with a man being 5ft 8. Loads of guys are 5ft 8 Have confidence, dress nice, be a nice guy. Someone will like you for these things before height. So go and find a really hot girl to who likes nice men and not men who try and put others down. They are probably jealous of something, someone always is. Do they have girlfriends?

isn’t 5’8 the average height?? tbh i consider it a red flag when a guy obsesses over height (whether they themselves are tall or short) as they tend to be superficial. those guys are just insecure haters, you’re not even statistically short

I think it would put off some women, yes. However, there would still be a reasonable amount of women who would be OK with dating someone that height. So I don't think you should worry too much about this. Those boys sound pretty rude!

5'8 is average imo i have lots of girl friends (myself included) are completely fine with that and don't really want guys that are over 6'0 lmaoo

I judge so much more than height what if a guy is 5ft 7 but Hellishly good looking and treats me like a princess oh and also has a cat and likes shopping

Not flirting or anything but you sound absolutely adorable

Please flirt away I act like a nursery aged child most of the same so not a lot of flirting comes my way

Now if only the two of you weren't both anonymous, this could be the start of the Romance of the Century _{(well on TSR anyway lol)}

Hi there
it is what it is op.
the vast majority of women want a partner taller than them. A lot of women do not want nothing to do with a man under 6. A tiny minority do not care about height.
women have the right to have standards; same for men.
it is not shallow if a woman only w a man taller than 6, the same if it is not shallow if a man only wants a woman with big boobs and big bum.

The solution for a man is to find a woman from the tiny minority who does not care about height.
do not take it personally op.
Your height is okay. Never mind the women (or people) who put you down
