I'm the same age but 5"3, my recommendation is learn game asap Todd V on youtube is a pick up guy that gave me good advice, also the book 'Models' by Mark Manson. I pretty much got 0 attention from girls growing up, so whenever one would smile or be nice I'd text all the time, complement all the time, buy presents, cancel plans agree with everything they say etc. It comes of as disingenuous or you have an agenda if you're afraid to disagree. Basically the friendzone or 'oneitis'. There was no attraction because I was needy and they knew they could have me any time and I'd always be there. You have to treat dating like a job interview. If you tell the applicant before the interview that there's no one else who applied/you can't find anyone else for the job and they have it automatically then they're not gonna try hard to impress you. It won't hold as much value for them. It's like if you have a soft teacher that gives everyone automatic A's or the strict teacher that penalises everything. You'll work harder for the 2nd class and you would value getting a B grade from the second teacher more than an A from the first because you know you've earned it. You have to be willing to walk away, sometimes disagree with her. DON'T self censor, a blowout rejection is better than staying in the friendzone or having long boring convos about the weather. Don't be afraid to tease her or say negative things like you probably do in your banter with your male friends. You could say "Those nerdy glasses make you look like Steve Urkel, but I like it." " Your hair/ears/shirt are weird, but it's kina cute." "At first I didn't like you, but now you're starting to grow on me." "You do (insert generic trait/quirk), I think you and I aren't gonna get along." "Don't get any ideas, it's not gonna work out." "You're not going to get in my pants talking like that" "That's actually pretty cool, you might be winning me over." "Wow, that's really cool, I didn't expect that from you." They're called push-pulls and they are good ways to build attraction, use the just positive and just negative ones with moderation, but the ones with both are generally fine. After you could say "You know what, I have to give you a bit of credit, you take my shit relatively well, you're not so bad." This is effective because it makes her want to win you over, all humans want other people to like them. If the girl is attractive she's probably used to guys complementing over and over. There are also 'shit tests' - difficult questions or statements designed to put you on the spot and see how you cope under pressure. You have to be cool and unreactive, not apologise/explain/get upset, show that you don't care, brush it off and carry on. Your reply if she calls you short could be "Never stopped me before" with a smirk then continue or "Thanks, I hadn't noticed" playfully then continue. Shit tests at least mean that she's considering you though so it's a good thing https://www.reddit.com/r/seduction/comments/9kfl5t/the_ultimate_guide_to_passing_shit_tests_this/ https://www.reddit.com/r/seduction/comments/4y373s/blast_past_every_shit_test/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo9XJennsRNhyPbXCq6e8aw/videos Hope it helps a bit, I know it's hard being ignored all the time
