Jorobot Posted May 21, 2003 Posted May 21, 2003 This is meant to be a pretty broad question... I'm sort of insecure about how I look, particularly how attractive I am to other women. I think I look pretty good from the neck up. But I'm also 5'5, and 110 pounds...pretty short and skinny. My friends say I look like a stick figure..plus, I can feel intimidated by taller girls. How important is a guy's height and girth, in comparison with his face and head?
Tony T Posted May 21, 2003 Posted May 21, 2003 You have to please yourself because people aren't going to like you if you don't like yourself. If you don't like the way you look, then do something about it. Get a trainer, change your diet, exercise, whatever. Your appearance should only be important to you. Once you have achieved the look you are happy with, you will exude a confidence that will bring love your way....and it will have nothing to do with the relationship of height and girth to face and head. It will have to do with your esteem and your heart. My guess is that if you do absolutely nothing, your appearance will improve as you get older. But if I were you, I wouldn't wait for that to happen.
flower Posted May 21, 2003 Posted May 21, 2003 Jorobot, while correct exercise, full cream milk and diet helps, I know there are those who are really skinny because of their high metabolic rate. Women are attracted to guys for many reasons. Some attractive characteristics are high confidence, intelligence, career stability, wealth, education, sincerity, knowledgable, sense of humour, interesting hobbies, excellent communication skills...so there are other areas that you can work on or you may already have, just that your fate with the golden girl is not ripe yet!
HokeyReligions Posted May 21, 2003 Posted May 21, 2003 Well, In my opinion - anyone that doesn't want to be with you because of your appearance isn't worth knowing anyway. My mothers other daughter is 6'1" with a large body frame. Her first husband (of 25 years) was 5' 3" with a very small body frame. They produced 3 children. If someone is uncomfortable around you, or you them, then move on and don't worry about it. Looks are important to some people, but not to others, and our ideas of what is important to us change as we mature.
Ryan Posted May 22, 2003 Posted May 22, 2003 But I'm also 5'5, and 110 pounds...pretty short and skinny. How old are you? Yes...that is underweight for a 20 year old man. If you're 15, I can't make any judgments yet. This will largely determine changes you need to make and changes that are reasonable to make. The focus should be on health....the appearance will come with it.
