Tall guys, I'd like to hear from you

[BigWillyStyle]

This isn't too serious an issue but it is a little bothersome. The issue at hand is that I'm 6'2". Most of the time I feel fine about my height, but there are times when it hinders me rather than helps me; those times being with shorter girls.

For whatever reason, the short (5'4" - 5'7" range), cute girls are often into me, and while I find them attractive... it just feels, well, awkward. I mean, a 6'2" guy and a 5'5" chick stand out like some carnival attraction -- I feel very awkward during social outings.

It's just me being a little self-conscious (one of my hang ups); and I just want to hear from guys in my situation, there thoughts on how they perceive it, and how they overcame any self-consciousness, if any.

Thanks, guys.

Didn't work out too well for this guy:

Seriously though, what can you do?

Accept it, or go get "break your leg and take out the bone" surgery"

What do you want to hear?

What do you want to hear?

Re-read the last paragraph -- that's what I want to hear. I think it's a pretty straight-forward post, but, hey...

Its all in your head. 6'2 is not super tall. its just above average, and women like that. You're fine.

Im 6'1. Its just tall enough to make women realize we're tall. Its a good thing, trust me.

6'2 guy with a 5'5 girl is actually pretty normal. Its a 9 inch difference. Its not that much. Usually girls wear heels anyway. The other way around is when it looks awkward

 

[omega05]

what about all the basketball players that walk around high school/college campuses? do they go around feeling sorry for themselves? 6'2 is not something to feel ashamed of.

 

[Heart Break Kid]

I'm the same height. My girlfriend is 5'5 and she just wears heels. I tease her about her height sometimes but there's no real problems.

If you are so insecure about dating shorter girls...


Date taller women. There are plenty of women 5'8 and up. Leave the shorter ones for me fool.

 

[Duffdog]

You are not that tall. I'm 6'2" and its not really a big deal anywhere I go. I date a girl who is 4'11" sometimes... doesn't really make any difference.

I think you are worried about something that doesn't need worrying about. If anything, being taller helps you get more girls.

 

[Exhumed]

yeah I'm 6'0" and I enjoy it, I'm taller than most of my friends and any girl worth hooking up with being short is a much bigger issue.

But I guess I see where you're coming from, a girl called me "imposing" the other day (she was the fat one who **** blocks and insults the guys her friends want to get with out of jealousy though).

The shorter girls do seem to like me though, and I like the short girls.

The shorter girls are, the more they're probably attracted to you. This is because when they're in your presence they notice the difference and FEEL how you effect them by being taller.
Being tall makes girls to look up to you, and not just literally. I've felt this before because it's pretty obvious. I was hanging with a basketball player who is 6'9" and I sure as hell felt his presence because I'm only 5'7".
It's also intimidating; think about the last time you've seen a girl who was taller than you (especially for you taller guys,) you're probably gonna be like "Wow! She's pretty fvckin tall!"
Short guys can still compensate for this through body language. I actually hate it when short guys complain about being short because I consider myself a short guy, but this is by comparison and not insecurity.

Here's a little tip that I just thought of, (I got it from the Larry Sanders Show actually haha):

Put yourself in a situation where you're talking down on her.

This is very easy.
-If you're outside, stand on a hill (or any higher ground). Instant height change!
-Ask her to sit on the ground and you can sit on your ass or knees (whichever makes you seem taller.)
-If a girl is taller than you when she's sitting down, such as in a classroom, adjust your body so you're sitting as straight as possible at your maximum height, or just sit on your feet or something. Girls sit on their feet or knees a lot: it makes them feel taller.
-Stand on stairs when you're talking to her.
-Ask a girl to sit down, and remain standing or sit on a table or something.

This is extremely easy, and I'm gonna field test it for results.
The most foreseeable mistake I can see is making it obvious that you're trying to be taller. DON'T make it obvious.

If she asks, say what Larry Sanders says: "I like to feel tall."

Remember guys, height = SSI. This will help you maintain a woman's attraction level because she'll FEEL your height!
Ahhh, that felt great to write haha.

That's a great quote. I couldn't agree more.

Stop complaining about a positive thing you were born with. Be happy you got lucky in the genes department. If short people can handle their issues about being short, I see no reason for you to even be self-consious about something so silly like that.

this is actually pretty dumb man. You can't hate short people who are insecure about it. Think about if they don't even KNOW about this site and other similar resources. They have to handle ALL THAT social conditioning that says being short is REALLY bad. They are the VICTIMS of society. How can you hate something that everyone puts down...that would seem very idiotic? We should be honored to be able to see the light and help the fellow men with his insecurities.(short or whatever)

 

[mintxx]

what bs. i am 6 4, and it's the perfect height for all women except midgets.

You picked up pretty much the least significant thing in my whole post.
I hate people who complain about their height because it's something that is very insignificant. What does height REALLY do for you?
Not much man. It's just an SSI and you can reach high things; that's it.

I don't think being short is bad at all. I don't think they're victims of society at all man. I also know I definitely don't put down short people. The truth about height is that there's nothing to be insecure about whether it comes to being "too short" or even "too tall."

Height is just a thing. Man it's just like weight. Big cats and scrawny cats can still bring in the pvssy haha
You're acting like we're better than them just because we study game...

Wrong. Height determines your pool of women.

A 6'0-6'4 guy has the largest pool of women.

A 5'9-5'11 or 6'5 or up guy has a large pool of women.

A 5'7-5'8 guy has a decent pool of women.

A 5'5-5'6 guy has a small pool of women.

A 5'4 or under guy has a tiny pool of women.

Other factors can increase your pool: good looks, build, game, money, but height and race are the two biggest factors.

If you're under 5'9 you must build up your body, become successful, and develop strong game. More so than someone 6'2, you have to excel over them.

If you're under 5'4, the game is very hard. Fame or millions will help.

 

[horaholic]

What a crock! Height, and race! hah! Everybody should just abandon this forum right now, then.

 

[sodbuster]

The only reason you feel strange around short women is lack of confidence-tall women are more likely to be obvious about liking you. They THINK they "need" to date a tall man so they aren't self conscious. I can pull a tall woman easily,but with a shorter one I have to work-they have more options.BUT if she's in to you,they will pull just as easily

 

[I'm in the Mood]

Man you've been smoking some AFC shyt.
Girls don't pre-select guys based on height, unless they're insecure about their own height.

Dude, when you talk about "pools," your pool is made up of the women in your social circle and the women you cold approach/see regularly. It has nothing to do with your height at all.

And race?? What kind of bullshyt is in your head man! Race doesn't mean shyt unless the girls you game are bigots.
Race is NOT an SSI. If you're a different race than a woman usually dates this might actually work to your advantage because many women are adventurous.

There is a secret reason behind every SSI beyond physical beauty...
Money = Financial security
Older guys = Maturity
Build = Health/Hygiene
Height = Powerful presence
Game = Pre-seletion

Height and race don't mean SHVT.
Do NOT think this way because you shouldn't place insecurity on your height and weight.
