Yes guys, it's gotten really bad... Anybody else feel this way or am I psychologically and mentally unstable at this point? To elaborate, thinking of going to the club gets me anxious. All the girls in heels, 6 foot guys, it's gotten to the point where I'm just avoiding these places because if I go I'm just going to be conducting height tests and comparing heights and not enjoying myself.
Height neurosis so bad I'm not going to the club with friends for new years
Quote from: Desktopx on December 30, 2016, 02:10:19 AMI can easily relate to this. This happened last year and it was my birthday. I avoided being in many group photos and when I was in a photo I would make sure no photo be uploaded on social media where I look short and all that. You're not alone and it's fairly common here with people on this forum I think.
I always avoid being in groups of people where I would look significantly short. Being short sure sucks as hell especially at places like weddings, parties where girls are likely to be in high heels. The beta feeling is just sooo depressing.
Oh man I fking hate photos. It's gotten so bad for me that I can't leave my house without either wearing Airmax 90's or timberland boots.. I cannot wear flat shoes. Hopefully in 1-2 years I can just hit average height (177cm) and live in peace.
Quote from: Desktopx on December 30, 2016, 02:10:19 AMI bought a pair of 5.2 inch elevator shoes (boots) from tallmenshoes and they are extremely uncomfortable to walk in. So next I bought a pair of 4 inch patent leather dress shoes which are a bit more comfortable and do-able. But it should be noted the actual height gain these shoes give are 1 inch less than advertised, I read from expert review.
I'm trying a new secret weapon now. I have timberland boots which give me ~1.5 inches. I bought 2 inch lifts so I'm going to combine the boots with the lifts to get 3.5 inches and see how it is. If it all goes to plan I will be at 5'11.

I'm from Canada. With my boots I'm ~5'9. I think my problem is that I just focus so much on people who are taller than me and ignore the people that I am TALLER then. It's become a vicious circle. I have friends who are 5'8 who seem so happy and don't even pay attention to their height (I might be wrong) and then there is me who is feels miserable.
Quote from: Desktopx on December 30, 2016, 02:49:26 AMI'm from Canada, it's not that bad when around general public in malls or restaurant with my 2 inch lifts but where the young generation is at i.e. University, parties e.t.c. things start going bad, really bad..
What part of Canada if you don't mind me asking? I'm from QC btw.
The conducting height experiments though, don't you feel it consumes so much energy out of you? I just can't have a good time because I keep doing this everywhere I go (metro, bus, parties, mall, grocery shop). It's never been this bad but lately it's gotten out of control for me.
Quote from: TIBIKE200 on December 30, 2016, 02:50:06 AMI was in toronto half a year ago. I am also 171. I felt better there. Also had success with women in parties and tinder. You canadians are pretty short on average. Its in your head

Unfortunately some of us here are trapped in our own heads. I can be average Canadian height with my boots but I feel 'fake' when I wear them. It just doesn't do it for me.
Quote from: TIBIKE200 on December 30, 2016, 03:03:08 AM Dont fear to feel good (regardless of height) because you fear that you will give up on wanting to do LL.
That struck a few chords in me. Very good point.

Quote from: Chris on December 30, 2016, 05:32:41 PMOr "manlet", this always makes me wish I could rain down fire on everyone 
And to stay on topic: I also avoid going to the club or any other crowded places. It's not like I would miss out on anything, I wouldn't see more than the backs of other people anyway 
I hate that word so much.
