short alpha?

Another question I have (I'm new, I'm asking a lot, I know. but I try to give, as well... ps: where is everybody?)

I'm a short guy. A really short guy. Due to a surgery in 7th grade, I'm only about 5'2". I'm not TOO ugly, aside from that.

But one thing I hate, and I don't know how hard it's going to be to be a pua with this disadvantage, but when I go to a club with friends, I'm "the short guy" in the group. Always. I wonder if that just decreases my odds tremendously, or what? Also, what can I do to get around this?

I dont remember if it was Harmless or someone else at one of our old seminar said "you all have the same height when you are... you know, horizontal."

my friend said it was the best thing in that whole seminar...

as long as you consider your hight to be a limiting factor, it will be. I can type here and tell you all day that your hight doesn't matter, but as long as you BELIEVE it does, it will effect your game. The only thing I can point out is that Prince is 5'2". http://imdb.com/name/nm0002239/bio

I remember reading somewhere that women like tall men because they make them feel secure. On the other side of the equation though, if you have a strong frame and make her feel secure despite being short, she'll perceive you as being taller than you actually are.

I can somewhat relate to this as I am of short stature. I am always the shortest guy in the group too but it has never affected me. I believe looks,height and style just give your more room to make mistakes when gaming. So yeah it is a limited belief. If you are insecure because of your height then women can tell.

A few things that you can do to appear taller:

Shirts: long stripes, interesting buttons and/or contrasting ties.

Have good posture

Hair: mold hair up/high/tall

Shoes: boots often have a tall heel or shoes with thick soles

You gotta see this

As soon as I read your post...I had to go out to get the names of the vids I watched on Youtube last week.

It is a five vid series of Juggler who has three students who have what is perceived as different challenges to pick up girls (e.g. one guy is 6'6", another is 5'2"..). I found it encouraging. It was very motivational to see the transformation throughout the vid series! You might find some value in it as well.
If so go out to Youtube and search Seduction School:[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DYn4-h3Cnk

Hope you find it worthwhile.

Neuromancer is right. As long as you believe it, height will be an insecurity.

I went to a 5a high school in the dallas metroplex. over 4000 kids and the most "alpha" guy at our school looked like he was in 6th or 7th grade. Maybe 5 feet, but that didn't stop him.

he sold weed, coke, etc...

he wasn't black

He didn't play sports

And he got laid.... alot...

AND PEOPLE DIDN'T FUCK WITH HIM!

why? Because of his frame.

Master your frame, then master the vagina! :)

And if you need someone to sarge with I live about 45 min from dallas.

Hit me up man.
