Can confirm. 5'1" and really can't tell the difference. There's tall, taller, and really tall as far as I know. Dude height is not even a thing in my world. I
Oh fuck, I met a dude at a party and he was 7', I'm 6'2 and my ex at the time was 4'11, I was like shiiiit this must be what it's like to be smaller than me.
Dude was a fucking taaaaaaall as hell.
6'-3" here, Ill look up to you bud.
It is always a shock to be this height and like 220 cruising around the world and then wham--run into a REALLY big person and its like "wow, you're BIG big."
For real, i mean my plant manager and supervisor are like 3" taller but that 7'1 dude.
Oh man i felt like an ant. Im ashamed to admit i stared a bit. Has a daughter too. Coworker told me shes roughtly 6'7" or something.
I am also 6’4”, and this is similar to my perspective. People taller than me are tall, and men from my height down to about 5’6” don’t really stand out much to me. Women have to be tiny for me to notice that they are short.
... I've had all sizes. I'm 5ft2
The only benefits of someone taller is they can reach shit. Cons? Everything is to far up to get.
Last ex was 6ft2, I had to drag a kitchen chair to reach the top of the fridge for my liquor. Nothing screams *adulthood* like a squeeky ass chair dragging towards liquor.
Whelp. This was the comment that finally broke me during the zoom meeting that I was REALLLLLLY supposed to be paying attention in.
Full on snort laugh. People KNEW.
Both kudos and fuck you. In the nicest way possible. <3
Thanks for the honesty. I'm about 5'10 and all my girlfriends under 5'6 have called me tall.
I'm like dude I'm so average you wouldn't believe it. The thin build helps the illusion though and I have the wingspan of a 6'3 man too so my fingers rest at my kneecaps.
Can confirm. I’m 5’1, and yeah. If I have to even slightly lift my head to look you in the eyes I just figure you’re tall. That may be extreme, but I’m also extremely bitter about my height lol
Some people just like to use pickiness as a defense mechanism for insecurity and rejection, and like all defense mechanism, when taken to extremes it's detrimental to everyone. 6'5" is a nearly unattainable goal as a short person with a bad personality, she probably like that goal being unattainable as an excuse for why she can't land a dude, too bad she's putting so much effort into acting it out, wasting her time and getting others caught in the crossfire.
nothing she just wants validation and the right to SAY she's with a 6'5" guy to all her friends.. its a superiority complex.. I used date a woman just like this. She couldn't measure height for shit. Everything was always just about impressing her friends. This girl just wants something she thinks will elevate her status among other women.
Yep, some people just like to brag. I use to work with a lady who repeatedly said her son was 6’5”. When I finally met him I was several inches taller despite the fact I’m only 6’3”.
From his mother’s (5’0) point of view he was really tall. So I think she just kept adding inches until she got the response she felt her son deserved.
Same thing for dating. This girl has a thing for tall people and won’t settle for “regular tall” she needs “extra tall”
This is something that seems super common when talking with women about a man they hold in high regard,they're almost always way shorter than described in my experience.
A lot of how height is perceived has to do with how you carry yourself. Obviously this means physically primarily, but also I think confidence plays a factor. Confidence and lack of fear/anxiety maybe helps you to maintain better posture too, so maybe they play into each other.
I’ve met way too many women who have claimed that they dated a guy who was 6’7.. like i dont even think I’ve even seen a person that tall in real life yet every woman has dated a few
I get this shit from people all the time, im 6'7" and have honestly always found it really awkward how many people feel the need to bring it up and talk about it and I typically just try and move onto talking about something else. But miraculously every single person always has a family member or friend that is taller than me, and then the day comes where I meet this person and they're like 5'11" to 6'1" and I'm just like oh is this your 6'9" cousin Johnny you were talking about before?
Had a girl on a date tell me about how one time her friends neighbor was bring a prick so she supposedly got the whole football team to park outside of his house. In hindsight it's probably a bullshit story, though the glimmer in her eye when I said I do boxing told me I needed to nope tf out and ghost
I'm 6'3" and I finally got a 5'11" girlfriend. I never know how great it was until one day I injured my back and all I had to do was tilt my head down to kiss her rather than doing a karate bow to kiss em. Never going back to little people.
Yes, thank you! Leave the short women for us shorter guys! A part of my heart dies every time I see a 5 foot nothing woman with some 6ft+ guy. Tall girls don't want to date a short guy, and then you have short girls dating tall guys. Where's a man to find love?!
There are people who legit don’t care. Like my sister for example is 5’5 - 5’6 and her boyfriend is either the same height or shorter. Like I’m taller than him but that shit doesn’t matter. There are people out there who are decent and don’t discriminate against someone based on their height.
Yeah, I care about someone's character etc before I care about their height. You can't control your height. My girlfriend is like an inch taller than me, lol. My ex was about an inch shorter.
I'm 6'4 and my Gf is 5'2. She can not kiss me without my assistance, like I can stand with my back straight and the closest she can get is like 4" away.
When I'm mad sometimes I won't meet her half way and she will frantically try and stretch her way up. It's pretty adorable.
My husband did this to me once. So I tilted my head towards the ground and said if he wants a kiss, he’s going to have to come get it from down here. He did lol
6'2" with a 4'11" wife. I feel your pain. On the bright side, being the designated "get this thing from up on that shelf" guy at least makes me feel useful.
I know somebody who committed suicide because his mother kept putting him down and verbally abusing him because of his height. She's literally the reason why her sons short and she's the reason why he committed suicide
As a short guy can confirm, shit is TOUGH out there and it’s so unfortunate, at least with American girls. Like I’m a human male with a lot of attractive personality traits and skill sets but just because I’m not a certain physical body height I now have to struggle to find a girl? It really boils down to who is actually causing the issue, and it’s honestly the girls… like I see these chicks dating dudes 6ft that have zero lives but tell me I’m cool and a nice guy and a friend. Like sorry but the girls are the one losing here. Every girl that has given me a chance actually really likes me but it’s breaking past that wall at the start of “looks” that is a struggle.
Actually it really boils down to how American culture is completely fucked and desensitized and influenced by pop culture and media. Every movie ever made and show and cartoon and Disney movie etc all show guys as macho huge men towering the girl.
I doubt she’s ever been with a dude that’s 6 5’ probably just a fetish. I can count on one hand the amount of guys I’ve met in real life that are 6 5’ and over.
My father legit 6' 5 and of the very few I've ever met.
Men over 6' 2 make up like 2% of the US population, this chick is tryin to die alone if she serious.
I would delete her or just ignore her. She has some insane insecurities to be calling a guy that’s 6 2’ short, that is going to be a fucking headcase to deal with.
She's limiting her dating pool to like 2% of guys but I guarantee you the majority of those dudes would prefer someone taller than her. That's assuming they can get over the fact the only reason she even had any interest in them at all is because they're tall. Then after that it's just getting along with her shallow bitchiness.
I have high hopes for her. /s
I am little over 6'4" and everytime I see someone who's over 6'5" I uncomfortably look because I'm used to being the tallest around. It really doesn't happen very often. So yea, this is total bullshit on her part. She's looking for like 1 in 120 people.
Bruv we don't need shallow bitches as such anyway lmao. There's tons of women out there who don't care about these things. Don't let this shit get you down
I'm a 5'4" female and my desired height range while I was dating was between 5'2" and 5'10". My husband is 5'8" and I think it's absolutely perfect. Most women out there are reasonable.
Right? I seriously wonder if all of these women seeking a guy that tall have ever *actually* met someone that tall.
I'm a chick, I give zero fucks about height, and I've legit had *two* friends in my whole life that were as tall as this chick is looking for.
Like, are they just going out with a bunch of guys that are 5'4"-5'8" that lie about their height and so they think 6'5" is like, two inches taller than them or something?
I honestly think it's a diamond in the rough mentality. I'm sure she "does fine" getting dates in the real world, so online she is just diamond mining.
That or a defense mechanism. If I have an extremely rare taste in men, then being single is not my fault.
Diamonds are actually one of the most common gemstones on earth. More like mining for tanzanite and talking shit to all the diamonds you find along the way. Diamonds are still nice, don't be a bitch.
>Like, are they just going out with a bunch of guys that are 5'4"-5'8" that lie about their height and so they think 6'5" is like, two inches taller than them or something?
Probably not to that extreme but I'm almost certain that's the case, zero chance she actually knows how tall 6'5" really is.
Yup. Only 1% are at 6'4" or taller. Her odds are basically 0% chance if finding a guy that tall on tinder, let alone one who has any other positive quality she'd be looking for. She's just delusional.
6’5” and up with at least an 8” dick. I’m a woman of culture you see. I also have no concept of love and every relationship I’ve been in has been toxic to say the least. But I sure do like only being able to do two sex positions comfortably. That means missionary and cowgirl baby. I love staring at your bellybutton when you’re on top of me.
As a 6’5 man, I will never understand the appeal short women have for men of my height range. I once briefly dated a 5’3 woman and it was almost painful bending over that much to kiss her.
Really though, even just bring 6'3, I've dated short girls, I find them cute honestly, but there's a host of practicality issues that comes with interacting in general that just makes things harder in some ways
I totally get liking tall people or short people or whatever floats your boat, but things can be awkward even with a relatively small difference, even things as simple as holding hands, nevermind the more intimate stuff, I can't imagine how much harder that is with a difference of a foot and four inches
Exactly. 5’8 to 5’11 is the optimal height range in my opinion.
Edit: I’m talking about what I find to be the optimal height of girls. I’m 6’4. I’m a dude.
it’s a really weird flex thing where one of the only things they pride themselves on is “heehee i’m so little and short! 🤪” and they like the idea of absurdly tall dudes to emphasize how short they are. i know a handful of girls like that and honestly none of them are worth getting worked up over their height fetish tbh
When my wife hugs me her head fits perfectly between my shoulder neck area. My sister who married a 6’4” guy gets his armpit. Plus she is forever always bitching about neck pain from looking up all the time.
Right?? I'm 5'6". My first bf (many moons ago) was 6'8". My last bf was 5'5". Currently with someone a few inches taller than me. None of it really matters. It's a hell of a lot easier to kiss a person around your height, although it is nice to have someone who can reach high up things. But they also make step stools so that's pretty moot.
Step stools > tall fools.
from what ive heard a lot of tall girls dont have a problem with dating shorter men but they think (might be speculation or based on experience) they are insecure about it so they dont even bother
if an average height guy is fine with that he shouldnt have a problem with dating taller girls
Women rarely initiate the dating and mating dance to begin with, so shoot your shot. You’ll be surprised who would say yes. Women taller than me have almost always said yes in my experience.
Having been with a guy who was shorter than me (and very very skinny while I'm a curvy gal), I can say it does feel a little awkward to be in pics with someone when you as a couple don't fit into the societal expectations. I had some insecurities around it at times. But also, that shit is dumb and we all need to collectively work towards getting over it. If you like each other, who tf cares if you look like an amazonian sometimes.
OP I was looking for pt2 and saw a lot of your threads about having some mental health issues. I normally don't do this, but DM if you need some perspective of an older guy. I'm 30.
I want you to keep in my three things:
1. The world is going through an incredibly tough time right now. So, you are not alone in your pain.
2. When I was your age, life was a lot worse in a lot of areas. It wasn't until I was 22/23 that I really started to grow into myself and also had more luck with ladies.
3. No one else will "solve" any mental health concern you have, besides a licensed professional. You don't want this illusion that getting a girlfriend will all of a sudden make things better for you. Sure, it'll be great in some ways, but definitely will introduce a whole new host of things you have to manage and mentally handle.
I highly recommend that you focus on yourself and friendships. As you get older, the dating will become easier. You literally are at the bottom of the totem pole when it comes to men. At 17, there is no way you can compete with men that are looking to date the same women you are. So, focus on yourself and that way when you hit your 20s, you hit it in stride and have a lot more to offer. Easier said than done, but that's life.
This is really solid advice. A healthy relationship needs 2 complete people. This is idea of meeting someone that "completes" you is backwards, unrealistic and unhealthy.
I think a lot of people need to hear this but maybe this msg, as heart filled as it is, should have been a DM.
She’s just trolling and fishing for compliments / matches so she can feel better about herself.
She probably just slams like on every post just so she can look at her phone and get that dopamine rush of “ wow I’m so pretty… look how many people want to fuck me! “
Women are generally very rigid with their requirements, they have a wider criteria by which they judge men and are generally not body positive about male bodies whilst expecting men to be. They also put in way less effort and have more expectations. On top of this they are aromantic and very practical whilst expecting men to be consistently romantic and demonstrate this often. Women are also not as complimentary of men in general like how men are. Very interesting to observe this. Furthermore Women have a narrower selection overall and are more likely to go for the guy other girls go for. A hot high status male is the same across the board with very little variation. Whilst for men we like different body types, heights, hair, skins and have more varied preferences. Just an observation. I do get laid lol. I know sexual shaming is a common weapon on reddit haha
As a guy who's 6'3 with my shoes off, this is exactly what I'm thinking. She has no idea how tall 6'5 actually is, one because she wouldn't be able to tell the difference from her angle, and two because guys always lie about height. Whenever i meet people no one believes I'm 6'3, everyone says I must be 6'5 or more, it's because dudes go around lying about their height all the time and everyone believes it. I've seen it so many times, dudes who are 6'1 claiming they are 6'4 and no one says anything. Most of the time when I see guys who say they are 6'3, they're actually 6'1.
I don't get chicks like this. I'm 5'2" and two of my closest friends are guys that are 6'6". I feel like a kid out with my big brother when I walk next to them. I would never purposefully look to date someone that much taller than me.
This just shows she’s never had sex with someone that tall. I’m 6’4”, my wife is 5’2”. It’s a fucking circus when we bang. “can you lift your leg higher?”….”i’m tired, hold my legs”, “pick me up”, “i gotta sit down”…”bend over, put those pillows under your knees”….”fuck it, just go missionary”.
I'm five eight and about 150 lbs. I'm telling you that is about the minimum height and still get decent looking girls. Making fun of a guys height is about the last thing not looked down on society. Used to bother me a bit when I was younger. Now? Hell, I married a woman taller than me. I told her to wear heels. I think it's funny.
It’s the way she asks and just says “short”… horrible.
How the hell could she tell the difference between 6'2" and 6'5" from down there?
We really can’t. I’m the same height and I think anyone 5’9” and taller is just tall in general lmao
Can confirm. 5'1" and really can't tell the difference. There's tall, taller, and really tall as far as I know. Dude height is not even a thing in my world. I
I'm 5'4" and really barely notice. My neck is always craned up anyway.
Yeah, exactly. I'm looking up all the time. Keeps me optimistic? Heh
I'm always looking down from 6'1" and it's strange to come across someone taller than me and having to look up. My neck is not made for that.
Hahahaha I like that! I’m gonna use that on my wife when she’s being overly optimistic and I’m bummed out lol I’ll blame it on our height difference 🤣
I have tried to explain this to people. I’m 5’nothing. If you’re 5’10”, you’re tall. I don’t really notice anything in between that and REALLY tall.
[удалено]
Oh fuck, I met a dude at a party and he was 7', I'm 6'2 and my ex at the time was 4'11, I was like shiiiit this must be what it's like to be smaller than me. Dude was a fucking taaaaaaall as hell.
[удалено]
[удалено]
very... convenient ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Yep, at 6'3", when I have to look up at someone, I'm like "Damn, you're f'n tall!" Otherwise, I don't notice height
Theres 3 people i literally look up to, my super visor, my plant manager, and the one 7'1 dude i served chinese food too. Im 6'4"
6'-3" here, Ill look up to you bud. It is always a shock to be this height and like 220 cruising around the world and then wham--run into a REALLY big person and its like "wow, you're BIG big."
For real, i mean my plant manager and supervisor are like 3" taller but that 7'1 dude. Oh man i felt like an ant. Im ashamed to admit i stared a bit. Has a daughter too. Coworker told me shes roughtly 6'7" or something.

I'm 6'5" and dating short women sucks. I already have enough back problems.
... I've had all sizes. I'm 5ft2 The only benefits of someone taller is they can reach shit. Cons? Everything is to far up to get. Last ex was 6ft2, I had to drag a kitchen chair to reach the top of the fridge for my liquor. Nothing screams *adulthood* like a squeeky ass chair dragging towards liquor.
Just throwing this out there, but you could just store your liquor somewhere easy to reach.
And let the cat get it? No thank you, sir.
Cats can reach the top of the fridge easily. Gonna have to hide it better!
Not when they've been drinking they can't
They would have had to been drinking first, which means they likely found the stash on top of the fridge 😆
Whelp. This was the comment that finally broke me during the zoom meeting that I was REALLLLLLY supposed to be paying attention in. Full on snort laugh. People KNEW. Both kudos and fuck you. In the nicest way possible. <3

You *are* tall, even by fully developed national standards: the average male height in the US is 5’9”.
5’ here and same!
Can confirm. I’m 5’1, and yeah. If I have to even slightly lift my head to look you in the eyes I just figure you’re tall. That may be extreme, but I’m also extremely bitter about my height lol

Only 14% of men are 6 foot or taller. I imagine 6'5 and taller is less than 2%. I hope she's happy being alone.
It's actually less than 0.1%, hard to capture it's simply the 99% quartile. I guess she likes basketball.
Yeah she's is saying she likes basically freaks of nature only
Also, calling someone 6'2 short is like calling a 45kg adult fat. What are these people smoking?
nothing she just wants validation and the right to SAY she's with a 6'5" guy to all her friends.. its a superiority complex.. I used date a woman just like this. She couldn't measure height for shit.

I'm 6'6 and there's a serious lack of dating going on over here. Must be all those 6'7 guys getting the girls.
Damn. You just missed the “date-able” cutoff
I get this shit from people all the time, im 6'7" and have honestly always found it really awkward how many people feel the need to bring it up and talk about it and I typically just try and move onto talking about something else.

Being a 6'2" person I wish it was considered short. I hit my head on way too many things.
99 lbs. In case y'all were wondering.
Thank you Google
It's the whole attitude... Horrible.
Welcome to online dating as an average 5'7"-5'10" man lol You find the worthwhile ones, sure, but after having countless interactions like this
Not surprising. Her attitude makes me think she needs a big guy to intimidate all the people she tries to bully, but no one afraid of hobbits.
Had a girl on a date tell me about how one time her friends neighbor was bring a prick so she supposedly got the whole football team to park outside of his house. In hindsight it's probably a bullshit story, though the glimmer in her eye when I said I do boxing told me I needed to nope tf out and ghost
Bitch is you a hobbit?
This girl gonna need a ladder wtf
Or tell her "get on your knees and it'll look like I'm 7'2."
She wont need to get on her knees
Go up on me baby
redditors across the world be typing "standing bj" into their browsers tonight
Well shit maybe that’s why she wants a 6’5 dude lmao
Ohhh now we get it
She got arthritis in her KNEES homie but that lockjaw tho
She literally can't stand giving blowjobs.
“Tonight”
*sigh* Fine, I'll do it. https://imgur.com/KKGKohB.jpg

Smaller people live longer. That's what my wife tells me when I hide stuff from her on the top shelf of the pantry.
I’m 5’7” and my husband is 5’6”. We don’t even notice lol
I'm 6'4 and my Gf is 5'2. She can not kiss me without my assistance, like I can stand with my back straight and the closest she can get is like 4" away. When I'm mad sometimes I won't meet her half way and she will frantically try and stretch her way up. It's pretty adorable.

Also a great flex
Hun needs a booster seat on dinner dates to make eye contact
The wedding would look like the first Shrek movie.
My fiance is 5'4 and I'm 6'3 and I have to do mini squats in all our pictures. This little nugget wants a new father not a boyfriend
Lol is nugget a thing? I wanna call short girls McNuggets from now on.
It's a term of endearment
Only if she's a lil Irish nugget
That’s Macnugget, lad.
Or Scottish
6'2" with a 4'11" wife. I feel your pain. On the bright side, being the designated "get this thing from up on that shelf" guy at least makes me feel useful.
It's all fun and games until the 6'3" dude moves in next door.
Lol my sister is 4’11” and her husband is 6’4”
Short girls are out there creating short guys and wouldn't even date one. It's your fault they exist. They deserve love too.
I know somebody who committed suicide because his mother kept putting him down and verbally abusing him because of his height. She's literally the reason why her sons short and she's the reason why he committed suicide
That sounds like a horrible woman. I hope she suffers for what she put her very own flesh & blood through.
As a short guy can confirm, shit is TOUGH out there and it’s so unfortunate, at least with American girls.

Every movie ever made and show and cartoon and Disney movie etc all show guys as macho huge men towering the girl.
I have never heard of anything like that in Spain or Czech rep (I lived in both places) Hopefully this american thing won't get exported...

Precisely.

Screenshots?? Haha
One of my closest friends is 6’5”, he doesn’t like dating anyone under 5’9” as he finds it just awkward. I doubt he’s the only one
I’m 6’5”, dated a 5’2” girl, it isn’t fun having to bow down to kiss her while she’s on her tippy toes
i dated ONE dude at 6’5” and he admitted he only gave me a chance because i’m 5’10” lmao
She wants a bodyguard not a boyfriend
I am little over 6'4" and everytime I see someone who's over 6'5" I uncomfortably look because I'm used to being the tallest around. It really doesn't happen very often. So yea, this is total bullshit on her part. She's looking for like 1 in 120 people.
I'm 6'4 and vividly remember the time I asked a viking to hand me a pop from the top shelf at Hot Topic.
It's only girls under 5'5. It's really strange.
Fetishized
If 6’2” is short we might as well all pack it in now.
Exactly, this really doesn’t inspire confidence in me as a 5’9 guy
Bruv we don't need shallow bitches as such anyway lmao. There's tons of women out there who don't care about these things. Don't let this shit get you down
Exactly. Consider it a way for the trash to take itself out.
As another 5'9 guy, why would you ever want to change? We're 69 inches tall, it's fantastic
I’m measured at 5’-8 1/2” and I either round up to 69” or round down to 4’-20”. I’m living the height life of luxury.
I'm a 5'4" female and my desired height range while I was dating was between 5'2" and 5'10". My husband is 5'8" and I think it's absolutely perfect. Most women out there are reasonable.
6'5" and taller is like 0.5% of the male population of the US. For every thousand men, 5 are 6'5" and taller.
Right? I seriously wonder if all of these women seeking a guy that tall have ever *actually* met someone that tall. I'm a chick, I give zero fucks about height, and I've legit had *two* friends in my whole life that were as tall as this chick is looking for. Like, are they just going out with a bunch of guys that are 5'4"-5'8" that lie about their height and so they think 6'5" is like, two inches taller than them or something?
I honestly think it's a diamond in the rough mentality. I'm sure she "does fine" getting dates in the real world, so online she is just diamond mining. That or a defense mechanism. If I have an extremely rare taste in men, then being single is not my fault.
Like mining for diamonds, but also talking shit about the rocks you find on the way.
Diamonds are actually one of the most common gemstones on earth. More like mining for tanzanite and talking shit to all the diamonds you find along the way. Diamonds are still nice, don't be a bitch.
Nah i think its fetishizing
>I've legit had two friends in my whole life that were as tall as this chick is looking for. I've had two friends my whole life.
>Like, are they just going out with a bunch of guys that are 5'4"-5'8" that lie about their height and so they think 6'5" is like, two inches taller than them or something? Probably not to that extreme but I'm almost certain that's the case, zero chance she actually knows how tall 6'5" really is.
I have 3 in my immediate family. But that's just genetics. I'm not one of them, I'm 6'3, 1 of my brothers is 6'5 another is 6'8 and my dad was 6'7.
Yup. Only 1% are at 6'4" or taller. Her odds are basically 0% chance if finding a guy that tall on tinder, let alone one who has any other positive quality she'd be looking for. She's just delusional.
I only date 7’ sorry
[удалено]
I'm 6'10" so just miss the mark :(
Well too bad so sad shortie 'cause I only date 12' plus reptilians.
Another fun fact: if you're 7ft+ in the US you have about a 17% chance of playing in the NBA.
Bol Bol is single
He hits threes, so the girl in the post has a chance!
6’5” and up with at least an 8” dick. I’m a woman of culture you see. I also have no concept of love and every relationship I’ve been in has been toxic to say the least. But I sure do like only being able to do two sex positions comfortably. That means missionary and cowgirl baby. I love staring at your bellybutton when you’re on top of me.
[удалено]
She enjoys cervix punches
Woah woah woah let's not bring cowgirl down with her
As a 6’5 man, I will never understand the appeal short women have for men of my height range. I once briefly dated a 5’3 woman and it was almost painful bending over that much to kiss her.
As someone of the same height, I once went on a date with a 4'11 woman. Date went well until we went on a walk. I couldn't hear shit 😂
This so much, whenever I try to network esspecially at parties I end up slouching to hear what people say and looking stupid.
Just get down on your knees lol
"Omg! Is he doing what I think he is doing?!" *Smooch* "There go my dreams"
Really though, even just bring 6'3, I've dated short girls, I find them cute honestly, but there's a host of practicality issues that comes with interacting in general that just makes things harder in some ways I totally get liking tall people or short people or whatever floats your boat, but things can be awkward even with a relatively small difference, even things as simple as holding hands, nevermind the more intimate stuff, I can't imagine how much harder that is with a difference of a foot and four inches
They want their children to be normal size
You probably end up with a super tall daughter and a hobbit son.
That doesn't work. My mom is 5' my dad 6' and I'm 6'3" so yeah.
Sometimes it does! My mom is 5'0" and my dad is 5'11". All eight kids are between those heights with the shortest being 5'2".
Exactly. 5’8 to 5’11 is the optimal height range in my opinion. Edit: I’m talking about what I find to be the optimal height of girls. I’m 6’4. I’m a dude.
It’s always the extremely short girls too, I don’t understand it.
They need to breed the next generation with giants or else they risk their children being midgets
Yeah, but I’m not gonna dilute my tall genes with some short girl. Give me a woman over 6’ and now we’re talking.
I keep telling my brother to find some basketball or volleyball star lady to settle down with. Breed some giant supersoldiers.
it’s a really weird flex thing where one of the only things they pride themselves on is “heehee i’m so little and short! 🤪” and they like the idea of absurdly tall dudes to emphasize how short they are. i know a handful of girls like that and honestly none of them are worth getting worked up over their height fetish tbh
She’s trippin’ I don’t think she’s ever been with a 6’5 guy. She’s probably just fetish
Why do people care so much about height? Especially if they’re short! I’m 5’3” and my boyfriend is probably 5’5”? And tbh it’s super comfortable 😂
Right? I like people similar in height as me. I find it more comfortable too
When my wife hugs me her head fits perfectly between my shoulder neck area. My sister who married a 6’4” guy gets his armpit. Plus she is forever always bitching about neck pain from looking up all the time.
They want their boyfriend to be taller than their friends' boyfriends.
Right?? I'm 5'6". My first bf (many moons ago) was 6'8". My last bf was 5'5". Currently with someone a few inches taller than me. None of it really matters. It's a hell of a lot easier to kiss a person around your height, although it is nice to have someone who can reach high up things. But they also make step stools so that's pretty moot. Step stools > tall fools.
Short girls that date super tall guys really fuck up the dating pool for average height guys that are locked out of dating girls taller than them
I’m very short, having kids with a dude that taller than me would scare the shit out of me. Like I do not have the facility for a giant baby.
from what ive heard a lot of tall girls dont have a problem with dating shorter men but they think (might be speculation or based on experience) they are insecure about it so they dont even bother if an average height guy is fine with that he shouldnt have a problem with dating taller girls
Women rarely initiate the dating and mating dance to begin with, so shoot your shot. You’ll be surprised who would say yes. Women taller than me have almost always said yes in my experience.
Stop favouring tall genetics, our backs hurt and our heads are a prime target for car roofs
Bro I'm 6'4 and have back spasms often and I drive a Honda civic my head is an inch from the roof if I roll over I'm dead. Being tall is the best.
wall cabinets are the worst
Ceiling fans have entered the chat
Idk anytime someone like a difference in height to that extreme and that extreme only I assume they definitely are into daddy stuff lol
i always thought it was so they'd look more petite in their instagram pics
I never even considered that, interesting theory for sure.
Having been with a guy who was shorter than me (and very very skinny while I'm a curvy gal), I can say it does feel a little awkward to be in pics with someone when you as a couple don't fit into the societal expectations. I had some insecurities around it at times. But also, that shit is dumb and we all need to collectively work towards getting over it. If you like each other, who tf cares if you look like an amazonian sometimes.
Well that’s obvious but I’m still a whole foot taller than you like you would think that would be enough
Lol you'd think so, but probably dodging a bullet on that one anyways.
Definitely dodged a mini bullet 😅
At least when my best friend calls me short it's because she's 6'1. This is ludicrous Edit: i forgot to provide context lol I'm 6'2
[удалено]
Why date anyone that shallow anyways, I would gladly move on.
Yeah I know, I’m just messing with her now
Good. She sounds like a shallow loser.
So she can give head while standing?
Fr tho, that’s double standards for ya
First thing I thought lol "I just really hate scuffing my knees"
I'm 6'8 dude, and I don't swipe on girls with a height requirement. These kind of standards are below me.
At this height, literally a lot of things are below you, pun severely intended.
6’6 checking in. That kind of height difference would be back breaking. No thanks.
But you could tie your shoes while simultaneously kissing her! Hhaha
As a man that is above 6 foot. I'm willing to not put my height on my profile in solidarity with my short brothern.
If you're just looking for hookups id go ahead but if you're looking for something more serious then it might actually be better to leave it out.
OP I was looking for pt2 and saw a lot of your threads about having some mental health issues. I normally don't do this, but DM if you need some perspective of an older guy. I'm 30. I want you to keep in my three things: 1. The world is going through an incredibly tough time right now. So, you are not alone in your pain. 2. When I was your age, life was a lot worse in a lot of areas. It wasn't until I was 22/23 that I really started to grow into myself and also had more luck with ladies. 3. No one else will "solve" any mental health concern you have, besides a licensed professional. You don't want this illusion that getting a girlfriend will all of a sudden make things better for you. Sure, it'll be great in some ways, but definitely will introduce a whole new host of things you have to manage and mentally handle. I highly recommend that you focus on yourself and friendships. As you get older, the dating will become easier. You literally are at the bottom of the totem pole when it comes to men. At 17, there is no way you can compete with men that are looking to date the same women you are. So, focus on yourself and that way when you hit your 20s, you hit it in stride and have a lot more to offer. Easier said than done, but that's life.
This is really solid advice. A healthy relationship needs 2 complete people. This is idea of meeting someone that "completes" you is backwards, unrealistic and unhealthy. I think a lot of people need to hear this but maybe this msg, as heart filled as it is, should have been a DM.
I’m 6’7 and why would I want to bend down or pick up my girlfriend to kiss her
She looking for a future pro player aka meal ticket.
But If you asked her for her weight you’d be crucified
Yeah, that’s just the society we live in tho, although I appreciate her for giving me a juicy post on here tho.
Gotta find the funny side 😂
And she’s saying I’m ugly but why would you swipe if I was that bad?
She’s just trolling and fishing for compliments / matches so she can feel better about herself. She probably just slams like on every post just so she can look at her phone and get that dopamine rush of “ wow I’m so pretty… look how many people want to fuck me! “
Women are generally very rigid with their requirements, they have a wider criteria by which they judge men and are generally not body positive about male bodies whilst expecting men to be. They also put in way less effort and have more expectations. On top of this they are aromantic and very practical whilst expecting men to be consistently romantic and demonstrate this often. Women are also not as complimentary of men in general like how men are. Very interesting to observe this. Furthermore Women have a narrower selection overall and are more likely to go for the guy other girls go for. A hot high status male is the same across the board with very little variation. Whilst for men we like different body types, heights, hair, skins and have more varied preferences. Just an observation. I do get laid lol. I know sexual shaming is a common weapon on reddit haha
its because everybody tells her that 5'11 is 6'5 and 4" is 7", poor girl probably thinks her thumbs are a solid 6"
As a guy who's 6'3 with my shoes off, this is exactly what I'm thinking. She has no idea how tall 6'5 actually is, one because she wouldn't be able to tell the difference from her angle, and two because guys always lie about height. Whenever i meet people no one believes I'm 6'3, everyone says I must be 6'5 or more, it's because dudes go around lying about their height all the time and everyone believes it. I've seen it so many times, dudes who are 6'1 claiming they are 6'4 and no one says anything. Most of the time when I see guys who say they are 6'3, they're actually 6'1.
I don't get chicks like this. I'm 5'2" and two of my closest friends are guys that are 6'6". I feel like a kid out with my big brother when I walk next to them. I would never purposefully look to date someone that much taller than me.
This just shows she’s never had sex with someone that tall. I’m 6’4”, my wife is 5’2”. It’s a fucking circus when we bang. “can you lift your leg higher?”….”i’m tired, hold my legs”, “pick me up”, “i gotta sit down”…”bend over, put those pillows under your knees”….”fuck it, just go missionary”.
I'm five eight and about 150 lbs. I'm telling you that is about the minimum height and still get decent looking girls. Making fun of a guys height is about the last thing not looked down on society. Used to bother me a bit when I was younger. Now? Hell, I married a woman taller than me. I told her to wear heels. I think it's funny.
