Yoohoo Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Well, I want a female perspective...what do women think of really tall guys? I'm about 1.98m (6feet 5inches) in height, and I find that many people (men and women) are physically intimidated by my height. I know many women say they like "tall" guys but is there such a thing is being too tall? I've had a few girls tell me I'm too tall before...but others don't seem to care. Any advice on how to not be so imposing?
Pink Amulet Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 *melts* Do you want my number? Haha, does that answer your question?
Lostgurl Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 You have the perfect height. I think anything taller would be toooooo tall.
Adunaphel Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 The tallest guy I've dated is 1,90 m (whoa, it's nice to see the metric system once in a while!), but if I liked a guy I would not mind dating him even if he is as tall as you. If I were really in love I'd get to the point of jumping on a stool to kiss him, so that he does not have to be unconfortable lowering himself. I think that what is most unattractive about very tall guys is that they often tend to slouch, like they are (uneffectively) trying to look less tall than they are. If you also tend to slouch, remember to try bearing yourself like you are very self-confident, straight shoulders and all. If you slouch because you are -consciously or not- trying to make your stature les snoticeable, people will notice you anyway; if you walk like you are confortable with your height, that's attractive!
Pink Amulet Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Thanks losturl! I don't think anything taller would be "too tall". A guy I like *blush* is 6"6 1/2... wow, he is a looker. He wears a uniform too! *double melt*
laRubiaBonita Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 i love tall men! i am 5'8..... my tallest bf was 6'7! i did have a sore neck the first week we dated, but after that i got used to looking up... or i stood on a step! if a girl genuinely likes you... your height would not be THat big a deal
Author Yoohoo Posted August 23, 2006 Author Posted August 23, 2006 Note to self, quit slouching, wear a uniform. Thanks folks
Adunaphel Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Note to self, quit slouching, wear a uniform. Thanks folks ..and get Pink Amulet's number! (do *I* have to tell you?)
Pink Amulet Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 I am going to keep posting because I am very passionate about this subject If a girl walks down the street in a short skirt, you look right? If a tall guy walks down the street, I will even go as far to do the turn around But as Adunaphel adressed... as long as they don't slouch. Stand up tall. Demand your presence.
Author Yoohoo Posted August 23, 2006 Author Posted August 23, 2006 ..and get Pink Amulet's number! (do *I* have to tell you?) Sorry, I've got so many I don't know what to do as it is :p
Pink Amulet Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 ....and then you go and say something like that and your height no longer seems a relevant enough factor *thumbs down*
Author Yoohoo Posted August 23, 2006 Author Posted August 23, 2006 <sigh> As usual, all you ladies just want me for my body...can't you see that I have feelings too....
Pink Amulet Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 *slaps you* I am sure you do, but your mother is the only woman that gives a sh*t about them. Now take your top off.
dgiirl Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Not that it is, but what if it was? Seriously, are you going to chop your legs off so you're shorter? lol Stop worrying about things you cannot control. For every person who doesnt like something about you, there's plenty of others who do! Self confidence is the main key. If you walk around loving yourself, people will be attracted to that. If you are insecure with your looks in any way, people will sense that and stay away. SO relax and just live life

Any advice on how to not be so imposing? HAH. That's rich. I'm 5 feet tall. I oncedated a man who was 6feet 7inches. Pictures of us together are quite funny. I look like his small daughter or something.
Moai Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 I'm 6'5" and I have never thought about whether or not I am "too tall." I will say that when I run into someone taller than me it seems weird. I came across a study once that asserted men between the height of 6'3" and 6'5" were considered natural leaders--whether their skills bore that out or not. People naturally defer to men in that height range. Shorter or taller that "factor" diminishes. My girlfriend is "almost" 5'3"! At first I thought that was awkward, as I am used to dating Amazons, but now I wouldn't change it. She can crawl all over me like a jungle gym and she is so easy to pick up and throw around--if you get my meaning!
Lostgurl Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Thanks losturl! I don't think anything taller would be "too tall". A guy I like *blush* is 6"6 1/2... wow, he is a looker. He wears a uniform too! *double melt* Thosee tall hunky men in uniforms are enough to get any woman going.... lol back to the orgasam thread to edit posts
honeybunch2k5 Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 Tall men are hot...Want my e-mail? I definitely don't think you are too tall. The tallest guy I dated was 6'9, and I'm 5'4. The only bad thing about tall guys is sometimes they get waaaay too skinny...
Sally00 Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 LOL I'm not such a tall person. So being with someone tall, as yourself, would be too tall for me. But there are a lot of girls who like tall guys... they'll keep 'em safe, feel protected, stand up for them, etc.
