Being a physically active 6'8" dude with shoulder-length hair, I'm rather content with my appearance on a day-to-day basis and am frequently called conventionally attractive and receive compliments. I often exchange smiles with women in public places, and am told by my pals that I get checked out a non-negligible amount of times. On paper I need not fear of anything, but when push comes to shove, and I'm out at a discotheque making an effort to approach women and exchange numbers, paranoia starts to penetrate my head and I begin fearing that my stature as a big guy only makes me uninviting and intimidating to the average 5'5" woman. I hope that's not the case, but if I were a man of average stature, I would never have to worry about any of this to begin with.

I understand you. The ideal height difference imo is 5-7" so that's tough for you to find! Bigger differences can still with though, my brother's wife is a solid 12" shorter.

Women most prefer men 10” taller than themselves and men most prefer women 2” or so shorter than themselves, which would average out right in the middle there of 6”.
