With respect to the guys who go for you but don't want a relationship, it has nothing to do with your height--and probably nothing to do with you. If your height was the factor discouraging them, they wouldn't go for you in the first place. The guys you're talking about either don't want a relationship, don't want the same things from a relationship as you, or want to date for a while first and figure out whether or not they want to commit to a relationship later. Calling something a "relationship" is considered a big step to a lot of people. There's nothing wrong with casual, uncommitted dating, either--dates are just a means of testing how you and others work together.
Anyway, If a guy doesn't want to date you for any reason, your height included, he's not right for you--at least not right then (sometimes a little time can make a lot of difference). Rejection can be a good thing. It helps you avoid bad chemistry that you didn't notice on your own.
It's true that some guys avoid tall girls in the same way that some girls avoid short men--for whatever reason, they find the height less attractive or awkward. Certain guys are definitely intimidated by taller girls (although it should be noted that a much larger portion of guys are intimidated by girls they like, in general). Most guys your age are just plain awkward. Don't let it bother you. If a guy is worth it, you'll both know--maybe not initially, but if you give it enough chance.
Cheers, and best wishes.
I don't think the fact that you are tall is the reason that you have never had a relationship. I think the reason you have not had a relationship is because a lot of guys at your age are not really looking for relationships, only sex. So you just have not met a guy who wants you for a relationship yet. No biggie. It will come in time. And as for the height thing, just remember this. Many guys out there love tall girls with long legs and many girls wish they were taller. I'm sure you have lovely long legs, so make the best of them. Show them off when you're out and make all those other girls jealous. I wouldn't care if my girl is taller than me.
I know how you feel about the whole ''being too tall'' thing. I have the same problem. I am a short guy (only 5'5'') and I always wonder if girls would go for a guy as short as me. At the end of the dau, height is not something we can change so we may as well make the most of what we have. Good Luck.

Most guys do find that off-putting, it's the whole dominance thing. I'm quite content that I'll never have that problem as I'm 6ft 3" so there's not many girls taller than me.
If I had the opportunity for a relationship with a taller girl than me, I wouldn't look at it any differently than someone my own height.
Tall girls can still be cute. But it depends.. On thickness really. Not talking 100% about fat, some girls actually have a thicker build/bone structure.
6 ft isn’t that much taller than most guys. Guys don’t really care if a girl is a little bit taller than them. I’m only 5’8 and I would date a girl that’s 6 ft. Probably wouldn’t go after her, but if she was interested, I wouldn’t be against it.
It's does feel a little weird for a guy. But seriously, if height is what is keeping a guy from pursuing you, then he's not worth it anyway, IMHO. =P
I like girls as tall as me and I would definitely date a girl taller than me!
Tall girls are hot!
Yea maybe
