You're just jealous no one wants to see you in heels and a dress.

As someone who has had that happen to her it's absolutely heartbreaking and WILL stick with a woman for a good long time.

I still have major trust issues because of what happened to me. But that's what happens when men use women for sex and pretend to like them.
But jet women do the same crap though lol. Many women bang guys they have no intentions of being in relationships with because of "deal breakers". But no one ever says men in that situation are being used for sex.

Now that I think about it, Ive never heard anyone say a guy was "used" for sex in any context

Women may be more vocal about their 'dealbreakers' but men simply ignore and pretend their 'dealbreakers' don't exist. They won't even become friend with women who are unattractive or that they don't want to eventually have sex with.

I used to feel sympathy for shorter men. Not so much anymore because it seems everything seems to be about them and their 'shortcomings'.
Height is the epicenter of the argument and the first batter up in the world of deal-breakers Jet, especially and particularly for women against men.

It's reality. It's the truth. It's ubiquitous.

Any time the word "shallow" comes into the equation when we're talking about deal-breakers in dating, what's the first and most popular physical trait that is scrutinized in a man? H-E-I-G-H-T!

You can't ignore it.

I was indirectly, yet politely insulted on the way home from work the other day. Three women in the range of 5'10 to just over 6'0, gave me attitude because I said "excuse me" softly and politely to exit the subway door where one of them was ignorantly blocking. I think my bag accidently brushed her which prompted her to say "it must suck to be a short guy, they're always getting in my way, effing little guy with attitude." Loud enough so I could here it, and I was the only short guy who got off at that time. Need I say more? Just for saying excuse me without being harsh? AND for being several inches shorter than these ladies?

I've had women friends in my life where sexual intimacy wasn't on the radar. Just good friends and nothing more, so your point about guys not wanting to be friends with women they won't eventually have sex with is not always true.

What I don't do is allow more females to come into my life who want to use me as their bad mouth platform. I'm not getting paid for this therapy. I don't have time to sit and listen to ladies who bad mouth other guys and only call me for my friendship if they need a punching bag or a shoulder to cry on.

Waste of time, waste of life.

You're awesome, ignore Mr Grumpy Pants. He's busy protecting his life partner the plane from the next gold digger that comes his way.

Having sex with someone you have no intentions of being in a relationship with is quite different from manipulating someone leading them on with false hope of something you know they desire and would influence their decision to have sex with you then having sex and ditching them.

My dear old dad said "any woman worth having sex with is worth marrying" - I think he had that right...don't get involved with anyone - unless you are thinking long term...Just to have sex and then dump them is kind of dirty and shows no class.
