Hey guys,
just a question thats been on my mind lately:
How do I maintaine an Alpha-status if I'm small?
My two best friends are about 6'2-6'3 ft. tall, I'm 5'7 ft..
When we are in public together I feel like they are talking down to me...which they litteraly are (lol).
Still it's kinda hard because I get this inner-image of myself seeming like I'm the "little-brother" they drag around.
Do any of you have any good advices on how to improve my situation?
Anything would help.

Alpha isn't about height. Alpha is a state of mind. Some people have it some don't.

I know, but I've read (dunno who had the thought, but I kept it in my mind) that there are some psychical advances that makes you more alpha right along.
For example, between a fit guy and a skinny guy, the fit guy will be more alpha from the beginning. It's also why so many pua's counseling guys to go to the gym.
It's the basic human animal-instinct: "Who can protect me? The fit guy or the skinny one..".
Same as a tall guy versus a small guy.
When my friends are looking down on me to talk, I easily get in a state of mind where i think of myself as lower-valued.

I think you've already identified what you need to work on. First and foremost is your inner game. You must learn to be happy with the things about your body you cannot change.
To me it sounds like the height issue is really guise for a problem much deeper within you. Your friends are coming across as the alpha men in the group not because of their height, but because of their body language and words. Analyze what exactly it is about other alpha males you see around you, and try to model that.

In terms of not being talked down to -- this can be a very difficult situation to reverse. I know because it is something I have difficult with as well. My only suggestion is to learn to keep a strong frame, and to avoid defending or justifying your actions.

Yhea tall guys do have some benefits in being an alpha, natural instinct. I am a very tall (and not skinny) guy, so I don't have this problem, but I do know a loooot of short-alphas, cuz the importantst thing in being an alpha is being social, not being a first-class survivor/bear/gorilla.

You can compare it to swimming, with a swimming suit you can swim al little faster cuz your aerodinamic, but you don't need a swimming suit to swim fast haha


So I agree with the other guys, you need to start thinking: Screw Im small, If you wanna talk to me, look down, and who doesn't want to talk to me?

Seeyah

Now days the alpha isn't so much about the physical and girls all have a different opinion on what is alpha. Some go for meat head steroid abusers, some go for rich, some go for funny and charming.
As long as you are confident and comfortable with who you are and some one people look up to then you are alpha.

There's a thing called short guy syndrome, a lot of the short people I phone are the first to get into a fight to prove they are alpha.

Think and you become or some shit.

do you know Danny Davito? He's a pretty small guy. Did you know he's one of the most alpha guys in Hollywood?

Thank you for ya replies! Really appreciate it.
Havent thought about it that way - but it make sense, I'm always getting into fights when having a night out, or the one who dont know when to stop when me and my bros are fighting for fun.
Gonna watch all he's movies now - watch'n'learn
I've been mocked about my height since I was in elementary school. I've never had any good comebacks to it.
Every time it happends I just think to myself that my natural body-structure isn't something I should be "defending".
Still, when I don't come with comebacks it seems like people are more likely to keep mocking me about it.
I got a question: how can I avoid people bringing it up?
I thought about different ways of doing it:
Laugh it off, get personal back at them, say something self-irony about my height aswell..
The only comeback that I'ved used alot is the quote from Napoleon:
"In my country we dont measure the height from the shoulders and down, but from the shoulders and up.".
But it still dosent seem to work, people just laugh at it when I say it, like "aww, look how sweet he is".
I'm gonna analyze the Alpha's I know, thats for sure.
One thing that occured to my mind about their Alphaness is, that they dosent seem to have any weaknesses.
It feels like everybody knows my personal Achilles Heel in the very second they meet me because of my height.
Would like to hear you'r thoughts about it (:

That comeback is actually pretty good, I think. In my experience, as long as people don't have any reason to believe that give you a crap how short you are, they won't hold it against you, even if that isn't immediately evident. Take this for example: have you ever got into a heated argument with someone, only to later respect their opinion, and maybe even be convinced that they were correct all along? People might make fun of you, but if they see that you don't falter, they will gain respect.

When it comes to people beaking you, I feel there is a very fine balance between knowing when to take it lightly, and when to let them know when they've crossed the line. On subjects that you are sensitive about, it can be very difficult to understand where this balance is. Keep trying.

I'm also 170cm... when taller guys (not close friends or friends friend) try to tool me or neg me i always ignore them. best thing I learnt from here is alpha male dont give a shit about beta peoples.

if the NEG is gettin to you, he is alpha.

Hey I'm short and I've had mixed sets with some really tall guys in there all pointed towards me and approval seeking, at one point when I was speaking to one of the tall guys a girl more or less stepped right in front of him so that my line of sight would be directed at her and she kinda blocked him out

So height isnt all that important! being cool is!

If it really bothers you get a pair of boots like New Rocks that add 1-2 inches, i'll wear mine if I'm going on a date with a taller girl.

Hey man, I'm 6'3 very good looking and athletically built. Normally I feel alpha especially around shorter guys which is most of the time. But there are shorter people who I've encountered who can out alpha me. From personal observations shorter guys can look alpha when they are 1. well-built/athletic (especially if it reflects in the broadness of shoulders or of the whole body in general); 2. Have a straight back and keep their head straight up (you need to be in a good shape to do that both your back and neck muscles need to be trained for that). 3. Look people straight in the eye when you talk to them (it also takes practice); 4. Have a stronger/deeper voice. 5. Like someone else said it's about your attitude, behave alpha and even taller dudes are going to comply with your status, but you got to believe it.
Also as a taller person for a very long time I have never thought it to be an advantage. You know who did it? Shorter people. They kept/keep reminding me of how "lucky" I am to be taller and I started believe it!
Hope that helps. Good luck.

Only one advise. Go to the Gym to build confidence and most of all, don't think you are small. Always go with the mindset of you being bigger than life.

I had the same problem (confidence, they are more alpha etc), but then I decided to go with the mindset -> I am sexy and everyone wants me. Decided this about a week ago, will tell ya how it goes :p

Back to the Gym, it really helps, whenever I have been working out I always feel more Alpha that day, even if I aitn muscular at all
