Does size matter? Not that, I'm talking about height and weight. It's a fact that a vast majority of women want a guy to be tall. So, how detrimental to a first impression is being short and skinny? Say... 5'6, 120 lbs. Does this immeidately remove all interest or possible attraction to a guy? Be honest!

not bad at all. personality is what does it for me anyways. i don't judge on a guys size. now, i wouldn't want someone who looked totally anorexic or who was morbidly obese, because i believe in taking care of your health. height doesn't matter either really. my hubby is probably like 5'8 and has a tubby lil belly.. its so cute.. perfect size to wrap my arms around. but his best friend is short and skinny and he gets lotsa girls.. don't worry about your size so much.. and neither will we..

No. It does not matter. Perhaps to some superficial women, it might.
Look at all the popular short male celebrities! Tom Cruise is short. Michael J. Fox. Mark Hamill (Star Wars). Al Pacino.
Just be careful not to project "short man's complex," otherwise known as the Napoleon Complex, where a man acts brash and pompous to make up for his short stature.
Be yourself. Positive. Confident. Nice guy.
You will have no problem attracting a nice girl.
Good luck!

I think its a personal thing...but a guy that small (unless you are a teenager) wouldn't do it for me...it would feel like I'm hugging a girl. Yes, I would immediately lose attraction. Just being honest.
Some women like the whole guy is bigger than her thing b/c he makes you feel like a woman and he can protect you.

yep- but overly tall is just as detrimental i think- more than 6'2 is a giant- but under 5'9 is short, especially if you are older than 13. - but i do know of friends who have turned down chances with great guys over their height-but either way there are millions of short girls out there- dont lose sleep over it

if you are going to worry about your height and weight, you are not going to get anywhere with a girl.
you need to be yourself, be honest, truthful with everyone and most of all yourself.
what i am saying just be yourself and you will be surprised of what will happen
my oldest son is 5'6'' and he married a girl who is 5'9'' and they have been married over 4 years now.
good luck

Size NEVER matters. It's always the quality
...unless it's like 1 inch.
Then you're probably in trouble.

i wouldn't care at all. i don't like a guy for the way he looks or his height and weight. i only like a guy for his personality. honestly i am a good looking girl and i have never dated a physically attractive guy. so don't worry about. if a girl is judging you on looks she isnt worth it.

i think most girls want a guy who is taller than them or at least their same height. a lot of girls are uncomfortable dating a guy shorter than them, but there are some who don't care. as far as the weight goes it is different for different people.

NO sir it doesn't I am only 5'2 so you seem pretty tall to me!!! ; ) Even if you were shorter then me it wouldn't really matter to me. I like personality. I don't care one way or another.
