my height (6)

1 Name: Secret Admirer : 2009-03-13 03:41 ID:o6SFQVB1

I'm a 5'9 guy and I think I might be too short for a lot of girls. What kind of chances do I have with medium to shorter height girls? I don't care much for tall girls so that shouldn't be a problem.

I'm 17 if that makes any difference.

5'9

What are you talking about, saying that you're short?!

Or maybe it's the fact that I'm a 5'2 Asian girl that I'm ranting.

Generally, girls like guys who are taller than them, so you shouldn't have a big problem.

If you still need to feel better, look at this site:

http://www.halls.md/chart/girls-height-w.htm

According to the graph, the average girl at age 17 is 5'4. I'm guessing if you have 5 inches of height on them, you're plenty tall enough.

I'm also 5'9 and I never considered myself to be short. Average if anything.
Can't recall having any height issues with girls, sure there are taller girls but you already said you don't care much for them.

You're still only 17 also, so you may yet grow some more but you shouldn't really worry about it too much.

PLEASE USE A MEASUREMENT SYSTEM THAT NORMAL PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND

dude, 5'9" is achingly average.

It's true that women judge on height. In a lineup, a woman is more likely to pick the guy who's 6 feet tall over a guy who's 5'9"

BUT, you're not walking up to girls and waiting for them to decide if you're tall enough to date. You're showing them you're a confident, funny, free-spirited, charming, classy guy. Which will go much farther for you than your height.

If the height issue still bothers you, reframe your idea of being 5'9". Stop saying in your head "I'm only 5'9" " and start saying, "I'm a solid 5'9" "

I'm a 5'0" girl myself, and I don't want a guy that's 6'2". I want to be able to comfortably rest my head on his shoulder without straining or anything weird.

So based on that, OP, I would totally date you :3
