    You don't have any control over how tall you so I don't think you can ever be too tall or too short really, you're just as tall as you are and it's not anyone's place to tell you that you're the wrong height. That being said, yeah, you're taller than average, (the national average being about 5'10", I googled it,) but that's not a bad thing, it's cool being able to reach things on high shelves. Anyway, I don't think a lot of women would find you being 6'4" off-putting. I'm not a good example to use because it makes me a little uncomfortable being around guys that are more than an inch taller than me, just because height is my one advantage in life so it makes me feel kinda like, small and helpless and I don't really like that but I'm sure your a great guy so that wouldn't matter. But yeah, not all women are like me so I think you'll be okay

    It can be for some girls who are short like maybe 5'3", but I'm 5'6" and nothing wrong with that height. Maybe my neck would hurt a bit lol, but I have a friend whose that tall and yea it's a bit intimidating at times since he looks down on me like a midget

    If a guy is 6'6" and above he might be considered too tall and "intimidating". Ideally a lot of women want a guy that is 6'2" because they get a illusion of "protection". However, there are women that prefer short or average men. Your height is still alright for a lot of women.

      Dude, once you get over 6'6", the problem is almost NEVER "intimidating"... and almost always "whoa, this is just SO awkward".

      Like, double awkward. The situation is awkward, of course... but so is the boy. No one THAT tall looks quite "right", especially naked. Because proportions yo.
      Worse, lots and lots and lots of boys who are THAT tall have unusually elongated faces, too... and that isn't doing them any favors as far as first impressions, either. (this ain't a nice thing to think about, but... think of the face you'd make if you were gna do a "retarded" imitation. A lot of 7 foot boys have facial proportions that make THAT their default state... ahah smh)

    If you were 7 ft I suspect there would be women who would think you too tall (though Wilt Chamberlain apparently never had that problem, so I've heard).

    But 6-4, while tall, is right in the right range for a lot of women.

    Most girls prefer a guy over 6ft. Unless the rest of his body doesn't match (like he's really tall but also really skinny), then it can be off-putting.

      Whaaa? Skinny is much much MUCH less of a dealbreaker (generalyl speaking) when the boy is tall.

      I mean, because, like, most women need dat sexual dimorphism tho. In at least *one* dimension -- if not height then at least diameter. Lol but srsly

      @redeyemindtricks I'm talking about those awkward high school boys that grew 7ft tall but are still like 100lbs. That's a turnoff in my opinion. Their weight usually catches up to them in university but until then they look lanky and awkward to me.

      I know what you're talking about. But, let's face it, ALL boys over like... say... 6'4" or 6'5" will have *some* significant awkwardness to their physique. Because proportions yo.
      You could nipick that exact number, but, don't, because you know the point is correct.
      (Believe me, I'm much more aware of this than most people, being over 6' myself... let's just say that clothes are something I have to choose carefully, and with a specific impression in mind. Which everyone else does too, but, not in ALL the relevant ways that I would hvae to.)

      I mean, sure, that'd be... not so hot. But are you rlly gna straight-face me that the 6'6" looks-like-starving-to-death boy would turn you off MORE than a 5'3" looks-like-starving-to-death boy would?
      I doubt it.

They're equally awkward to me (just one looks like a more proportionate manchild and the other looks like an awkward starving giant) : P But yo, not bashing on your preferences.

      So what?
      Imagine if you were shorter than her and other women? Then she would have called you midget.
      by the way what's her height?
