BIG
Ok, im 7ft tall, and of course a guy. It seems like every time i approach a girl shes always so afraid of me. She never wants to talk to me and hold a convo. w/ me. When people do talk to me, they always ask how tall i am, then sit and stare. Why are girls so afraid of me? and how do you suggest i cure this problem, and maybe advise on how to keep the convo going w/o it dropping off at how big my feet are.

Aw....well maybe girls are a little intimidated by your height. I mean, i'm only 5'2 and I think i'd be a little bit scared of a guy who was towering over me at 7 feet tall...(even thought I like tall guys lol) They stare at you because you stand out and they probably are fascinated by your height. I know I find it hard not to notice someone as tall as you. Maybe you could laugh about it. It's a cool thing. Be proud of it. Don't let it bother you, and maybe it won't bother other people. =) Hope I helped any at all. If you need anything else, just ask me!

just talk about other things, and let them get past the fact that ur soo tall and then all the tall questions that they ask in the first conversation, will be gone so the next time u speak u will have other things to talk about... if that doesnt work fuck them, cuz ur gonna be the rich basketball player someday, and theyll be sorry that they didnt go out wiht u! ;p good luck giant, lol jk i know pleanty of people that like tall ones! :)

they are just intimidated by the fact that you are freakin 7 feet tall! holy crackers you're very tall by the way. i've never met anyone 7 feet tall. you should play basketball... i mean if you don't already... ANYWAYS! onto your question. the next time you want to talk to a girl ask her if she is afraid of the fact that you're really tall. kinda flirt a little and say girls like tall guys (and yes we do like tall guys... my boyfriend is a foot shorter than you but he's tall for me because i'm 5'3") anyways. the reason why they don't talk to you is because of your height and i'm sure that the majority of the guys in your school are intimidated by you. the fact that you're so tall would make a girl believe that you're buff and over protective. that's the stereotype one would get out of that. girls like it when their boyfriends are protective but not OVERLY protective. so that's why... if that makes any sense... it did to me but if you have a hard time understanding drop one in my box and i'll try to word it better for ya!! hope i helped and god damn you're really tall!!!!!

hey i'm tall too for a girl(5'10) so i can kinda understand. maybe the girls are intimidated by your height. To keep the convo going just try to get to know the girl by asking questions, like if she's into sports or something like that.good luck

Wow..people are weird lol. Girls shouldn't be afraid of you because of your height. Yes are tall, but that doesn't affect your personality. If a girl starts to just sit and stare at how tall you are try and turn it into a joke and that will loosen up the tension and then you both can start a convo, if it comes up again you can just brush it off and continue the conversation. Hope i helped :)

Girls are probably scared of you because they might feel challenged by your height. There's alot of wierd people out there, and they might feel intimidated when a man much bigger than them apporaches them. I dn how you can cure the problem, but just try to show the girls that they shouldn't be frightened by your height. Don't say it flat out lol, but just when you approach them say something really really nice or sweet, and if they're worth your time at all, they'll talk to you! You seem pretty nice anyway! About how to keep the conversation going, make it about HER. Figure out what she's interested in, what she likes to do, hobbies, and then let one subject roll to another! Don't make it stalkerish though haha! Good luck x0x0x. Oh by the way..do you play basketball?? If you don't, you'd probably be good! :D

I totally agree with both previous answers. being in the military has opened my mind to a lot of different points of view. in regards to your question, just be yourself. if a quick and quirky reply comes to mind if someone asks you how tall you are, or what size your feet are. spout it out, maybe even exaggerate a little. have fun with the questions that are asked. learning body language is not something you automatically know, but after time, you will be able to tell if someone's really looking for a serious answer. but of course i work with a bunch of smarta--es, so i've gotten used to it real quick. Show everyone elso that you are comfortable with yourself (they'll know by the way you carry yourself, or the way you speak to others), and they'll follow suit, and usually pretty quick too. and good luck in hookin up...

I personaly LIKE tall guys! It all has to do w/ people's preferences and someday you'll meet a guy who, like me, likes tall guys. I'm sure you have preferences in girls...and it's the same way around. If these people make you feel badly about yourself, drop 'em cause you don't need them.

I recommend that you go find a tall girl! Not really tall, mind you, as I'm sure there aren't too many wandering about, but one around my height is great. I am 5'10" and always have felt like a beast around men because I towered over them in High School. It wasn't until I was a senior that the fellas finally passed me up. Tall men, like you, make me feel small and delicate, and that's a really nice feeling. If the shorties are too intimidated to give you time, nuts on them! Another solution is to become friends first. People are all naturally curious about things they don't see everyday, and are going to be in awe of you because they don't realize being tall is just as sensitive as other body differences. Would they walk up to a fat man and ask what he weighed? Of course not! I suggest dating friends who are already comfortable with you and aren't looking at your feet, but at your face and heart.

Have you tried to make light of your height? If you think people are falling into the whole "awe" factor, make light of your physical stature... I knew a priest who was 6'8" - I think its fair to say that he was well over the average height for a priest... anyway, his nickname was Fr. Stretch. He would up-front tell people, "and so you don't have to ask, yes, I do play basketball. And the weather up here is fine." He say it with a grin and usually that was enough to get people to realize that, hey, he's a person, too!
Basically, but cutting people off and letting them know that you're well aware of your height, usually that's enough to make them realize that there are other things to talk about.
(On the other side of things, I walked up to a friend of mine one day and said, "Hey, you know what? You're tall." To which she replied, "Holy shit, when did that happen?" And then we went about our day like nothing had happened, leaving the others in the room somewhat baffled.)
