Meh is really frustrating when you are taller than 95% of people around you .

My friend's sometimes make fun of me like calling me names like "taller" which always make me feel different from others. 90 percent of places I enter requires me to bend down, I don
hit my head tire , and is like tall guys have strong head because the amount of head I always hit eeh a short guy won't survive it .

You can't hide among people , I rarely come across people taller than me those this means Nigerian's are naturally shot . Am only 6.2 feet tall, my skin completion
is brown and am really grateful for that, aren't mean I was dark in completion I for resemble monster.

I just hate being tall it makes me different from others.

pls how do I cope with this pressure
You might Also share your own experience as well.

It feels normal to me but what actually feels strange is someone taller than me.

guyy same height, same prayer!

I'm 6'1... They have criticize me, so many times.. even me self don turn ham to joke...fucc what they say.... I'm perfect

You are only 6.2 and you are complaining, nawa oh, if you complain then what do you want people above your height to do?

I feel lucky and try to understand why the bullet missed 5% of me

Omoh op yhure weird o...trust me short people are really insecure about their height...some will want to make yhu feel bad just to give themselves hope ....

My advice is to yhu is own yhur shit ....yhure a boss ...tall guys are rare commodities...nah them dey rush yhu...carry yhurself with pride jhoor...and stop disgracing tall folks...

I don't go a day without someone admiring my height...I've received so many favours just because of my height....and I'm not gonna shrink for no one....I love every inch of me...

They're criticizing because they wish they were like yhu...

I would have added more but e go be like say person dey solicit.

Op and others, live your height to the max. You should never shrink/become insecure so others are comfortable. No be you cause their insecurities.

Dress well, strut accordingly, bulk up if you aren't and if you can/want to.
You don't owe anyone a thing.

My dear yhure absolutely right...I understand the op though...I was like that when I was young and naive...my friends would make fun of my height....to the extent that I started slouching and was badly spoiling my posture just to look "normal" ...

When my dad noticed it...he told me bluntly that "if yhu think yhure too tall..yhuve not started because yhure still growing...stop giving yhurself hunch back" ...then I started seeing tall models... actresses etc ..omoh I said to myself I can look like them too...

Then I started owning my shit...omoh thesame people that were mocking are begging me to dash them small height...one openly told me that if God would give her just a lil bit of my height she'll be the happiest woman on earth...she told me she laughed at me to give herself hope.. that she wants to be tall too..

How old are you exactly, if you don't mind me asking.

So the only thing you think you have going for you is your "brown complexion"? That's a very sad thing to say. The colorism is terrible on this one. You need a mindset overhaul.

Sis, you said it all! You described my experience growing up. Those loonies almost made me insecure growing up/teenagehood.


Now, guess whose "market" is selling more as adults?

Not them. You just turn heads wherever you go. It helps if you know how to dress for your height and shape (I only recently started learning that. It's been a game changer), accentuate whatever curves you have, flaunt those long legs, smell good....just be your alluring self and see who's smiling every time they come home.

Yhure right sis...knowing what to wear that'll fit yhur body is very very important....

My dear...I fling my long legs with careless abandon...with my heels ....oh lawd....
Before the mumu me was insecure to wear heels...even when my mum buys for me... I'll quickly change to flats when she's not looking...or I make sure I don't stand up with it...

Mhen now I can rock any inches I want...they be tripping ...heels are actually meant for tall ladies to flaunt their long legs...

You're still young and but you have a lot of work to do from here. .


Start by discarding that complexion thing. If you're good looking, you'll still be good-looking if you were dark-skinned. Don't let anyone tell you or make you believe different.

I admire tall ladies that are able to wear heels. They always look so elegant. I can't dare. Tried it once in 2012, almost broke my ankle. It's flats ever since. It works for me.

Yhu should try it sis ...start with smaller heels like 2 inches first before graduating slowly to 6 and above...

It gives that classy sophistication...to yhur look...if not that it aches my ankles...I would have been wearing heels everyday..
