Is 6'6 (197cm) too tall for a girl?

Hey.

So I'm an 18 year old girl. I feel way too tall compared to everyone around me and I've had loads of girls come up to me and say " I'd hate to be that tall" etc. I'm super skinny but I feel like a giant around everyone. I feel guys will never want to date me either.

So am I just a bit too tall for a girl? Thanks

Sis I’m 6’1. If men don’t like you being tall then move onto the next one. There’s plenty of men who love tall girls.

You are extremely tall, but a good mate of mine who's 6'7'' would love a girl your height, assuming you tick his other boxes of course :smile:

Not really. I'm 6'5"ish and would find it very attractive being at eye level to a girl instead of looking down literally all the time.

Lankiness is good. You could easily wrestle most guys down.

Yeh tbf you're one of the tallest girls I've heard about, ever considered rowing :biggrin: I'm usually considered tall but you'd still slightly dwarf me, not that I mind :wink:

When I was in year 8 (about 13 years old) I was in a class with a girl that was as tall as the male teachers and taller than any of the boys in the entire class. Despite this, she was dating an average-height guy who had a great personality.

Your height doesn't matter. If a guy says that you're too tall then he is missing out on potentially having an amazing relationship. Don't pay attention to any superficial people. When you meet someone who will care for you, you will meet someone who won't care about how tall you are.

I can't speak for the guy's cuz I'm a girl but if I met someone and I liked them I would care about things other than their personalities. My current crush isn't some perfect 10/10 superstar. She is average looking and has a lot of self-harm scars on her arms from back when she was younger. Thankfully she doesn't do it anymore. Yet despite her average looks, I find her more attractive than anyone else and I'm so happy whenever I'm around her.
