Quote from: YourSpaceBoyfriend on April 14, 2017, 05:54:32 PMI don't remember anybody commenting on my height ever.
5'5 living in a tall european country
That's because most people aren't all caught up in this height crap. It only people like us that would notice.
Mr handsome you said before with 2 cm you woild solve your height issues. If you think 5 8 is very short i doubt the 2 cm could. Don't you think this is all in your head. 5 8 is a little below avg but not 5 2 like you make it out to be. Id advice to get theraphy before anything else.

his probably from usa and got cm to inches mixed up cause he could easily and discretely wear 2 cm lifts in his socks
No he said with 5 9 he would be good. This a false sense of reality that he has. As a expert of insoles I know that 2 cm aren't much of a difference maker to even wear them.

Then he has a mental illness
Can people please stop using "tall" and "short" incorrectly.
I.e. "many women want tall in a man, but some don't mind short" should instead read "many women want taller men, but some don't mind shorter men".
This is because "tall" and "short" are actually adjectives.
Just something I read a lot that kind of annoys me. I'm not even a grammar Nazi.
Aside from that, women don't walk around with tape measures. Maybe they'll claim to like x or y height and no less if they have to think about it but it's not like being 2 cm shorter than their proclaimed cut-off is generally going to disqualify you.
If they have to ask you and then decide they don't like you after the fact, that's funny enough to make the rejection worth it. Women (people in general) who think like that are vapid as fk.
I go to a UK Russell Group uni which I think should be the equivalent of US ivy league and the (private-school educated, white) guys here are probably around 5'11" give or take a cm, I would say 6'0" still looks tallish. (Not talking about the southeast Asian students who are really tiny). And American white men and British white men are practically the same height, British white men are a little taller even.
P.S. my sister thinks tall guys look gross and short guys are more "compact" and aesthetically pleasing (her words). I see her point. In my experience a lot of short girls prefer relatively short guys, or just don't care because most guys are much taller than them anyway. Not even a minority at all, probably actually more than have ridiculous height cut-offs. That said, when I say relatively short I generally mean like 5'7" plus, so really quite average broadly speaking. If you are below that I think it gets pretty hard. Then again a lot of short guys don't help themselves by acting like insecure pricks about it. Pile on the hate, but it's true. Being insecure is OK so long as you are cool and not scared to be vulnerable about it, and willing to put it to the side too, but being a dck about it will stop anyone from taking you seriously.
I think 5'8" is considered short in some places, average in others, but very short, no way. Where I am "very short" would be 5'5"-5'6" or less, "short" 5'8" or less, and other people here are pretty tall.

I meant to say 2 inches boss. I don't mean to cause any nuisance here. I am just commenting that my height of 5'8 is rarely found on campus. Moreover even orientals are getting taller these days. That has just been my experience. Others should feel free to share their experience.
