wait, you know his exact height and you're having trouble picturing this? How is that so, exactly? LOL
I mean, it's not as though there are a not of other variables left unaccounted for, here... just think of what a 2-2.5" height difference looks like, and, hey presto, there you go.
In any case...
The fact that you're ASKING OTHER PEOPLE about this, is rather disturbing to me.
You know that other people's opinion doesn't matter at all here, right?
What matters is you, the boy, and how the boy makes you feel... and that's it.

I don't think 5'9 is short for a guy, but then again you are on the taller side. I think that height really shouldn't matter if you truly like his personality and are attracted to him. Why does it matter if he's considered short for a guy, he's still taller than you. You may not be able to wear very tall heels and still be shorter than him.
5'9" ot 5'10" is average US height for men.
Just... picture someone a couple inches taller. Lol
It isn't short, it is average. You're 2-3" taller than your average woman, not that that's a bad thing.
No, 5'9 is literally the exact average male height for men in the United States (and most of Europe). According to medical experts, anything below 5'5 is considered "short stature" for a man.

5'7 was the average for men so being 5'9 is above average... if you really like him though don't bother worrying about his height.

From 5'7" starts to be short for a guy, 5'9" is about average. www.mrinitialman.com/OddsEnds/Sizes/sizes.html
Thats not short for a guy, I would be considered short in the US or Europe since Im 5'6 but Im considered average in other countries. Im a foreigner so Im not considered short where I come from, there's a lot shorter guys there.
That's the national American male average height. He'll look almost the same height as you. You'll basically be eye level.
No, that is not short for a guy. 5'5-5'6 is pretty short for a guy.
5'10" apparently, because a lot of women I know would not date a guy less than 6 ft. it breaks my heart LOL... Naught!!!
In America, 5'9" is about the average height of males.
well 2 inches taller than you will be slightly noticeable.
I'm 5'7" and my height is perfectly fine thank you very much
When the guy is shorter than me. The average height might be like 5'7"-5'9"? Not sure, depends on where you are from.
I've dated shorter guys, some are pretty cool to be with.They come in all sizes but a short guy is one shorter than you.
I want a guy taller then me. lol so anything about 5"6. If he's shorter then me he's short. lol
Im 5'9 and im probably slightly shorter than average
5'3... I once met a man that height. Let's just say I towered over him. But he was cool!
Height doesn't matter much if you are within the acceptable range , 5'0-5'10 for women and 5'6-6'5 for men.
I'm 6 foot exactly, and I'm very slightly taller than most of my friends, but I do hav some who are taller. 5'9 isn't really that short
5-9/5'10 is considered average, but i say 6' just because it's nice and round
Probably anything below 5'9"-5'11". I'm 6'1", and I'm considered average I believe.
5'9" short? No way...
Short is anything from 5'4 and under for makes... and anything from 5' and under for females...under 180 cm , it's around 5'9 5'10, it's average, your around the same height
5'7" and below is short.
