A SINGLETON got the shock of her life after insisting short guys are “the worst”.

The Tinder user advised people to “swipe left” if they were shorter than 5’’7, which proved to be a big mistake.

After getting a match, the unidentified US woman from Wisconsin began messaging another singleton.

He baited her: “Ugghh, short guys, right?” before she agreed: “They are tha worst.”

The conversation seemed to be going well as the pair chatted about where they were from and what they did for a living.

But things soon took a turn for the worse when the woman admitted: “I’m 5’’7 and it’s difficult to wear heels with short guys… How tall are you?”

After telling the dater he’s 6’’1 the man asked: “Why do you want to wear heels?”

She responded that she wears them “cuz they are hot”, unlike, apparently, men who are short.

The cheeky Tinder user then decided to have a joke at her expense, making the extreme comments: “Like why do they even exist” and adding: “Why can’t we just sterilize them.”

For some reason, alarm bells still didn’t ring for the oblivious singleton.

She admitted she’d be in Miami for a few more days before returning to Wisconsin.

And it was then that her match turned on her, commenting: “I try to stay away from cold North American places because the girls tend to be fatter.”

Clearly taking this comment to heart, the furious woman responded: “F*** you”, before threatening to block him.

With his objective achieved, the dater said: “Well, you don’t like short people.

“Why can’t I have my own opinions? Short people can’t gain height. Fat people can lose weight.”

Screenshots of the awkward exchange were posted onto Imgur yesterday, have been viewed over 7,000 times and racked up hundreds of comments.

Many self-confessed “short guys” thanked the man for taking action against the rude singleton.

Others remarked that he’d dodged a bullet.

One said: “When it comes to her not dating short people, it’s the short people who come out with the better deal.”

Another added: “And I bet she asks herself every day why she’s alone!”

Despite this, not everyone was on his side.

One commenter remarked: “I might be the only one to think it's fine to have preference and if you don't like short people what's the problem.”

Another agreed: “I don't really understand why having a preference is a big deal. Some men won't date blondes or women who don't have an athletic build...”

It's not the first toe-curlingly embarrassing text exchange to sweep the web in recent months.

This girl had the best response to the creepy guy texting to ask her ‘what’s under your towel?’

And a man texted the wrong number intimate information about his penis size… and it spectacularly backfired.
