All I see on social media is women who care about height and looks. I'm 5' 9" and by no means attractive and this has really taken a toll on my confidence. Do I even have a chance or is this really how most women view me?

Not at all. I think men tend to overestimate the importance of looks and height. Some girls really will not date you bc of it- but they aren’t the majority. And preference doesn’t mean someone won’t date you bc you don’t match. For example, id prefer a man my height or taller, but that doesn’t mean I’d never date a man who’s shorter. As for attraction, I at least never experience attraction until I already like a dude emotionally/as a person. Personality really is key.

5'9 is like a perfectly normal height though?

5’9 is about the average so no. I think caring about your preference is important but men are overthinking it. No one is specifically asking for 6’5 jocks with chiseled jawlines. That’s a small minority. Ofc some ppl want that but attractiveness is subjective. We’re not all chasing the same man. That’s unrealistic. So being tall or attractiveness is not a one size fits all look to women. Attractiveness can mean 5’11 and average to some or 5’7 and hot to others. Depends on the woman

You have chance, but more than that you gotta actively try and change your feed. I know I sound preachy rn, but I’ve had a feed that just made me feel down and it sucked ass so bad. Get your friends to send you silly videos or cats or something so that you see less of the shallow clickbait stuff and more of what actually makes you feel something You being HAPPY is attractive

get off social media. go outside and look around. you’ll see plenty of men who are 5’9 or below, lower than average attractiveness who are in happy committed relationships. you’ll even see relationships where the man is shorter. many men just have confirmation bias when it comes to women’s preferences
