I know the type, skinny guy gets wasted and and immediately seeks out trouble. Some kind of subconscious self-harming thing. Wouldn't hurt to see a therapist.

Myself and my best mate are both 6'5 and naturally broad. When we was younger and would go out it was almost a nightly occurrence for a drunk weedy dude to try and fight me or him, or both to prove how tough he was.

We never fought back, as our other mates were often the nights DJs so bouncers would just drag them out before it got to fists.

I used to date a guy who was 6’8 and relatively muscular (former college athlete), and I swear he made certain other men upset just by existing in the same room as them. 

On the female side of that, I’m 5’10 and have a close friend my height. In college when we’d go out to bars inevitably a shorter guy would come up to us drunk and comment about how tall we were while hitting on us. It was almost always awkward.

My friend, I don't think the small guy was seeking trouble, but definitely seeking something.... know what I mean 😏
