u Because they think that all girls, no matter what height, want a guy who is way taller than them. Also, guys don't want to be the shorter one in the relationship because for so many men, being shorter = less manly - ironic, since they constantly complain about girls wanting to go for taller guys. They're not helping the cause. I think a lot of guys also tend to think that very tall girls are manly or not very attractive in some way, which is just unfortunate and totally not the case.
I'm also 6'1" and there are not many guys who are taller than me. They're all the same height or shorter, and that's who I used to go for when I was single. But they were never interested and two guys told me I was too tall for them and it was a turn off.
That is tall for a woman. I am 5'11" and I dated a girl that was 6'0" once. I was a little awkward about it at first but once I got used to it, I liked it and thought it was even sexy. You are def not ugly. Guys might be a little intimidated about your height but I don't think most guys would care, especially after they got used to it. Also, There are tons of guys that are 6'1" or taller so that wouldn't really be that tall to them if they were the same height or a couple inches taller. When I was with the 6' girl, I didn't even really notice after a while, I didn't have to bend down to kiss her lol.
I'm not. I find it very attractive. I believe the intimidation might come from the notion that most women (by no means all) prefer men who are taller than they. Since you're taller than the national average for men (5'10"), I could see why they might think that they have little to no chance with you.

im not afraid of her being taller than me with heels ON. without them, im afraid of them off, simply because im short. it would be weird, however, i find it to be a HUGE turn on when she's taller than me with heels on, no idea why. if you can explain this to me, then by god, do so
Most guys like being the dominant force in the relationship. I like taller women, but I always feel like they want at least someone as tall. When I was 5'8'' in school, I liked a girl who was 6'2''.
I would think if you smile a lot and maybe approach guys you find attractive yourself, you will probably see different results. Good luck.
I am nor have I ever been afraid or intimated by tall girls, the reason I stopped for the most part do not chase after a woman taller than I am. Is that I got tired of the drama of it, not so much about other people reactions to our appearance when together. But from her drama, about not being able to wear heels, because she did not want to be towering over me more than she was, to how we did not fit when we slow danced together.
Most girls want a guy taller than them so maybe they feel thatydon't have a chance. I mean l, I like tall girls actually and am not afraid of them, I don't think most of them would be interested in me though because I'm 5'10" and girls seem to feel more secure with a guy that is taller than them, its like a mental block, :D
Most guys dont want to be looking up into a womans eyes when kissing. We want a more dominant position of looking down. You would be fine for me because i am 6' 3". But all the women i ever dated were between 5'5 and 5'10
Generally most guys i know are emberrassed of having a girlfriend taller than them, i have no clue why im sorry i couldnt help much but find yourself a taller man is my advice
Because girls ALWAYS want tall guys (even 4'10 girls seem to think they should be with a 6'5 guy!)
I'm not afraid of taller women, but my past experience tells me they'll just say no if I ask them out, so why bother? If you take the initiative you'll find many men happy to be with you :)
My wife is shorter than me but when she's wearing heels or wedges it makes her look taller than me. I don't like it. It's probably some dumb masculine thing.
Easy answer is find a tall guy and make giant children. There are plenty out there.
I find women won't date shorter men, I'm a lot shorter than you.. it honestly would not bother me
I am not scared of tall girls but I would not think/have more trouble about approaching a tall girl because girls do not really want to date guys that are shorter then them.
Volleyball rocks!
And we're not scared. We just go for girls who are the perfect height for us. You would need a 6' 5" guy.
Guys are not scared of tall girls! I’m only 5’8 and I think tall girls are sexy! 6’1 is a little too tall for me, so I wouldn’t pursue a girl that tall, but if she was interested in me, I wouldn’t have anything against it.
I'm only 5'6. That's why. lol. Also, in my experience, women will not generally respond to a shorter mans advances.
i'm 5'7 and I personally love tall girls!!!, sexually turned on by them
I dont get where you guys live. But I dig long legs like em doe
Because you can beat me up! Women are vicious!
