How tall are you?

Discussion in 'Chit Chat' started by anthonythegamer, Jun 3, 2014.

  1. So I'm reviving this type of thread this month. How tall are you guys? Also, list what you like and/or don't like about your height.

    I'm six feet tall (183 centimeters) and what I like about being this tall is that I feel very important and I can easily scare people that I don't like. I'm able to find my mom in places like department stores and that I can reach for many things without asking for help.

    The downfalls of this is that dating can get a bit awkward since 95% of the guys in my area are at least three to four inches shorter, meaning that kissing gets a bit weird. Also, hitting your head in EVERYTHING; from car doors to shower-heads. Also, I tend to look older than I really am when I stand. One of my neighbor's friends (8th-graders) thought that I was a university student.....

    5 feet
    Like-
    Not much to be honest. I can fit in small places.
    Don't Like-
    Annoying rude people that point my height out or constantly ask my age
    Not being able to reach things
    Not looking like an adult is an issue with the amount of theatre I do at school and will be if I ever start dating

    I'm almost 5'9". I like that I'm always one of the tallest in a crowd. I dislike that I can never find pants that fit me right... So I wear cargo shorts year-round.

    Nothing is wrong with your height, but you are still young. Still growing. You can get an X-ray of your wrist and a doctor can say how much longer until you will probably stop. Oddly, at 18, I'm still getting taller. I was always the shortest in the class, then suddenly, taller than even most maabs my age.

    5'4"-5'5" I was mistaken for a high schooler student when I would back to my high school for an assignment for one of my classes.

    When I was 8 I was really underweight and they did the wrist X-Ray and were like "You have a bone age of 5."

    I'm a bit over 5'1" and I'd definitely like to be taller. Finding clothing that fits that isn't kids clothes can be a bit of a hassle. Plus, people tend to think I'm "adorable" which makes me feel like a 5 year old. I don't want to be "adorable" :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    That was a long time ago. Get it done again :slight_smile: I knew a guy who was 5'1" and 4 queer guys had a crush on him. And his personality was not that great, they just thought he was cute.

    I'll probably just wait. It's annoying, but I kind of figure I can't change my height so I just get a little frustrated.

    As a kid I was self conscious because I was always taller than everyone. It wasn't until highschool that I stopped standing out so much.

    I like my height now.

    Like: still working on finding an advantage to it. Maybe that sometimes they still let me in the 'under 12' line going through security at the airport, which might be slightly faster?

    Dislike: My height is going to make it really difficult to ever pass, because I'm short, even for a girl. Plus I perpetually look 10 years old. I've been told that I'll like that later, though.

    5' 9" or so I think... the height is not bad, but I wish I was maybe 5' 6" to 5' 7.5"
    Also much more petite in general... I don't think 5' 9" is very cute. :/
