How do you feel about your height?

-Would you rather be the same height you are now, taller or shorter? why?
-Has your height ever given you negative feelings?

I felt like I wasn't feminine or cute because I was too tall for a woman... I am 5'8. I felt like men didn't notice me because I was too tall and they wanted a cute, little girlfriend they could protect, yet, I wasn't tall enough to be considered glamorous or super model material... like technically, they take girls starting my height, but they would have to be super gorgeous. I guess with the height thing, its hard to find guys that will date women that are as tall, or taller than them. I have had at least 2 shorter guys who seemed to fancy me though (long, long time ago). Just felt like I physically took up too much space. A little while ago, I realised I will always take up about the same amount of physical room, because if I stretch out my arms, and spin, I will occupy about the same amount of space. Okay, so I'm weird, haha.

    I am 5' 3", I've always desired; to be 5' 6" mainly because I like the ½, of a foot; instead of ¼ or ¾! I don't care, concerning the height itself!

    I would like to be 8 feet (0.24384 decameters = 2.4384 meters) tall.

    I am 6 foot 4 and sometimes it’s hard for me to see short girls because my neck is permanently in a neck brace and I bend my knees for no one

    I stand at 5'3.75". Some longer legs would come in handy when needing to reach for things off the second shelves in my kitchen. I have a step stool I carry around the house.

    Also just to be able to run (I am a runner) in some longer lean legs once to see what that feels like. That's all.

    I am 5'2". It is very frustrating to not be able to reach shelves in the kitchen, hall, or closet! I would like at least 2 more inches and a bit longer arms. I previously lived in a house that we had built with a large kitchen and many low shelves. We moved and now have a galley style kitchen and even with a step stool I cannot reach the highest shelves. I need to use a step stool for all the shelves except for the lowest set.

    Boy do we have a guy for you, he loves tallish girls. How do you feel about living in heels?

    Hahahaha no. I saw ALL of his threads. Hilarious, but a total trainwreck. Next you are going to tell me to go after that young guy that was posting about his old lady fetish.

    Only if you're an "elder" under 43 :lol:

    I feel like I should have been 5'8" but I'm 5'6" because of stunted growth from undiagnosed an untreated hypothyroidism.

    I am only 5'6" and managed to do pretty well at competitive sports, though probably could have gone further if I was a little bigger. In Uni the next smallest guy trying our from running back had 2-3" on me and 30lbs.

    Also for dating, if I was 5'10" or so I am sure some women that overlooked me (pun intended) would have dated me. that said, I have dated 3-4 women taller than me (from 5'7" to 5'10" the 5'10" one for just under 4 years) and a few others my height!

    lol, that would be so weird.

    I would want to just go ahead and like 20 feet tall. 100 feet. Like Godzilla. I think Godzilla was actually taller, though. I think he got taller during the sequels as well.

    However, actually think about being 100 feet tall and then doing all the stuff you normally do during the day. That's why I choose 8 feet (2.43 meters)

    I'm 5'2, and other than my family teasing me for it, it's never bothered me. I don't mind asking for help or climbing to get stuff. The only reason I wish I was taller is so I could eat more lol

    I am 5'3" and I hate how short I am when I go to my half *kitten* bartending job. Im not tall enough to reach anything and if you make the mistake of sitting behind the taps youre gonna have to meet me halfway for everything I hand you.
    On the plus side, I find myself to be the ideal height for shower sex so theres always that.

    I'm 6'3, I like 6'3...I'm good with it. Nothing I can do about it now anyway. If I were under 5'8 guy I guess I'd walk around with an attitude. I don't think tall people (taller than me) say 6'8 and above live longer than shorter people.
