you are the exact opposite of me lol. Im currently 6 foot 8 and wanting to be a little shorter. to many things in this world are not built for tall people. Clothing, shoes, those dam doors*serisuly the top of my head doesnt bruise anymore) are all designed for shorter people, makes me wanna be shorter


lol

if only there was a way you could give me four of your inches.

you'd be at an awesome height for any sport, even basketball since dwayne wade is like 6'4 and you'd still fit all the things you mentioned..

and.. i'd be 6 feet =D!!!


hahaha well if ONLY.. ^^.. but for the OP...
just find a way to be comfortable in your own skin...
i felt a lot happier about myself when i accepted that i would not grow to be 180cm(5'11) like all those korean girls like because of korean dramas.

i'm 5'8 and.. well i just have to live with that. accepting it is the first step with living the rest of your life without being concerned about your height.

I have the opposite problem as a 5'11 woman. It's difficult not to feel kind of gawky and awkward when you tower over other women of your age (not all of them, but a lot of my friends from before have been at least 2+ inches shorter than me.) It has its plus sides when it comes to being able to see over crowds and get things down from high shelves though.

Actually one of my favorite actors is only 5'4. His height only makes him cuter. I think if someone likes you for the right reasons (personality, personal attraction etc.) then your height in relation to theirs really won't be an issue. People who'd give you (repeated) shit for it aren't worth knowing anyway.

but ive come to have second thoughts


I'm going to give you advice that once applied will rid you of any lack of confidence. What you do is you follow two simple rules of life.

Rule #1. You do not give a fuck about anyone thinks of you.
Rule #2. See rule #1.

Now what does that really mean? Does it mean that you become lawless and do whatever the hell you want because you don't give a fuck anymore? No, that's not it at all. It's about not being apologetic because some people might not like you, because not everyone will and if they mock you for having a funny haircut or being short, you just shrug it off because you do not give a fuck about what anyone thinks of you.

Rather than saying your rank, you say you're mid-Diamond. Obviously trying to sound better to compensate. Here's a thought: don't. You are what you are, and if you're going to try and shove the truth away, you probably deserve whatever you get. Stop feeling down and realize that a woman that was taller than you actually gave you the time, and you actually hit it off. Was she distracted by your height? Maybe. But did she care? Not if you were a good match.

And yes, my attitude to blatant ignorance or idiocy or what not is to not give a fuck about their opinions. Because if their opinions, attitude, or behavior is so pathetic that they stoop to that level, their existence, and everything that comes out of their mouth, is meaningless.

Also, you came off as a tad arrogant and snobby.
There is no one like you in the universe.

Hey man, Im 5' 6" and height has been a big issue my entire life. Ya most girls are taller than me, but I have a strong confidence in myself, and can get girls to laugh and readily like me. Ive had a few gfs and am now happily married. I was smart, the girl im married too is 2 inches shorter than me.

It does suck when she wears high heels cause that makes her taller, and when people see that they always make a comment. And even though It pisses me off so bad, I still laugh it off and act like it doesnt bother me even though Ive heard every short joke in the book 3 times or more.

I'm going to try to be helpful and say I don't care.

Not that I don't care about your plight, but I've had a lot of friends who were self-conscious about their height. If I ever teased them, honestly I never thought of them as short, they just kept bringing it up.

Most people are like me, we probably think you're a normal guy, but it's your own insecurities about it that are making you stick out, and people are reacting to that.

And dude, if she's wearing stilettos, you're not the only one concerned about their height. Girls want to appear taller and hence more striking and leggier, so they put on the massive false advertising known as high heels.

Im gonna tell the the same I said to the guy that was guetting bald. Be proud of who you are and dont give a fuck about stuff that is beyond your control. Be the man in the situation man. If you get mocked you say well my dick hits the floor. Dont sweat it chicks think about how tall you are but in the end its how YOU lead yourself in the Room how you present yourself. The first step of being baller is to know you are baller FUCK THE REST.

Yes, that's his problem. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy as he thinks his height is the problem anything anyone does will confirm that belief for him regardless of it actually being the case or not.

Why do you care? Wait for girls who like you, not what you look like.

Is it seriously that hard to stop giving a fuck?

I'm only 5'7", but I don't really think that it matters. Any woman who would make fun of your height is probably a bitch anyway, and not worth the time. Seriously, there are better things to be insecure about.

If you've grown up with the belief that looks matter and that guys should be tall then yes, it will be hard for him to reprogram that belief because it'll be in the back of his mind for a long time.

I'm the same height as you, OP. I feel your pain.

As for anyone who isn't any shorter than about 5'7, I don't think you really understand what it feels like sometimes haha. It usually isn't a problem but sometimes there are phases where your lack in height is really apparent.

I am a normal height and I feel superior to people who are either too tall or too short.

(No I don't)

I think Chill's advice is right. Height isn't the deal breaker, it's just a scapegoat.

+ Show Spoiler +
Actually, for being 'normal' height (ie 5'9") pretty much everyone I meet is shorter than me, or basketball player height. I never seem to meet people who are actually the same height as me, despite being the defined average.
