If it gets to me I wouldn't wear heels on top my height.
I only reply those who wants to shame me or make mockery of me.Just call them shortest,their demeanour will change grin

As a girl with such height, would you prefer a more taller man, let's say 6'3 and above or would you prefer a man you are taller than? Which do you feel more attracted to?

I am 6'3 in height and I am 19 yrs of age. I usually feel too tall when I walk around my age mates and what makes me feel insecure the most is when people start saying that I am long.

Tall people out there, how do you survive? I also hate it when people stare at my height when I am walking in the street because I am the kind of person that likes being conspicuous and unseen.

At times I just wish I wasn't so tall, so I would like to know at what age does one stop growing in height?

I'm 6'3 too just a. Few inches taller than when i was a teen
Trust me i felt exactly the same way u feel
I was very shy about my height and never wanted people to talk about it
In fact i was shy of passing by people
I soon discovered i was advantaged in many ways with my height
As i also grew bigger, people became scared of me in the street therefore reducing street intimidation.
I also learnt girls were always admiring me - they love tall people!
I soon added weight, became muscular and looked like a model..
Ther was also a time i was praying to stop growing too.
Reseaech has it that normally people stop growing tall around age 19, but i observed i added height even up till 22+
Its natural for teenagers to feel that way, ur not alone
I've met several people like this too
U'll soon become used to it after some time..

Men are just ingrate, people will complain even if they have a good life. Go and ask dwarfs and know how to cope.

A chicken eats corn, drinks water, swallows pebble, yet she complains of having no teeth. If she has teeth, would she swallow gold? Let her ask the cow who has teeth yet eats grass.”

Test your Jean before leaving the market or take a fitted you have at home that's your size along with you when going for shopping. It's fancy shoes I find extremely difficult to get my size.

Being tall, obstructed my option of friendship. I'm a 6.4" Adult male with a nice body physique. Growing up, my friends wouldn't want to be seen around me because in their words, ''my height makes them feel like children!'' I felt hurt anyway but I soon learnt to be a Lone wolf and I did some body building for a while and my physique became chiselled!

Nowadays, I don't have problem with making friends, especially girls! Of all shapes and sizes want to be my friend or want something more!

Guys don't have problems associating with me too because they want to be friends with a tall smart guy too.

But I avoid lonely roads in the evening because people still fear my physique when I move, especially women.

Bottom line is this, there's a love/hate relationship from average, normal and short height people towards Tall people. Build your body and enjoy the attraction for life!
