Yep, sadly this is all that it takes to give you a huge advantage. I've watched this on dating shows, nonstop. If the guy is tall, just about every girl will invest more time into him, hoping they will also be a personality match/complement. So if you are also good-looking, and nice, and have social skills, you're golden. But with just the one... it's still a big plus.

No. A good personality will and hough. a girl may find your height attractive but if you guys don't click well she won't stay around for too long. I'm not that good at conversations either so you're not alone. You can practice more or just try to stay calm and natural when speaking to someone.
Probably. On a subconscious level height makes you more powerful and stronger and desirable which trigger a hypergamy response. As long as you are making decent money and don’t say anything too offensive your lack of conversational abilities are likely not going to be a dealbreaker.
Nyet, well I mean it's better than being in that situation as a 5'6 dude then you're doomed regardless, but no personality doesn't help much (not saying you have no personality but that's the perception if you have nothing to say)

Not really. If you’re awkward and don’t know how to approach and make or hold a conversation. You gotta have more to offer than just your height… for a relationship to even happen
Men think size means everything. Woman have size interests very far down the list.
Is he a serial killer?
Is he good to people around him, even when disagreeing?
Does he look after himself?
Does he love his mother?
What does he do for work?
Is he supporting himself?
Wonder what his shirt size is…? I wonder if he would wear it if I bought him a nice shirt?Oh yes, definitely. Female friend of mine once said a guy being tall is like a girl having big tits lol. Don't even worry about it. And also, compensation/pay is correlated with height. So the fact that you're taller probably means you'll end up making above average pay for the same work. So you have good reason to be optimistic in life in general.
Nope. You need the right social skills to get a good relationship. In fact you need it to get any relationship lasting more than around 30 minutes I'd say.
But anything can be learned so don't give up hope.
Your height has the potential to help spark the initial attraction, but as you progress you'll need a bit more depth/substance.
You should not call yourself worthless. Nobody is! You are worth a conversation, and time.
If we are talking like a serious relationship, then it may give you a 1% boost. But for the majority of people, someone who they cannot hold a conversation with is someone who are they are not going to be talking with for very long.
Height means nothing if you can't treat a woman like a normal person and connect with her like getting to know her interests as well as share your thoughts and experiences. Seriously, you need social skills and a good EQ.
dude, the fact that you are aware of your conversational shortcomings is the good starting point, try to work on your conversation skills. This is easier to fix than a chatty shorter guy wishing to be taller!
You know how most women are shallow and never date men shorter than them?
Nah, you're good. Up and at them. These shallow women. But beware, you'll never know if they are height diggers. You can ask and they'll tell you some things but still.
Height does not equal to personality. As long as you're a good person, being unable to keep a conversation going is alright. Not everyone is good at conversation sometimes, and that's okay.
No. You'd just scare the bejesus out of me and make me wanna run away if you got quiet and just making eye contact with me. Make me think that this is an ambush and I need to dip. Now.
Height does give you an advantage for most women. For those that care about height anyway. But conversation skills are also important. As well as ability to read social cues.
You'll get more attention than shorter guys. What you do with that is up to you. If you never act on your opportunities than your advantages will not help you.
I'm 6'3 and mostly loner and have social anxiety and don't really care for much people. I don't talk to people that I don't know and have never been approached for a relationship in real life. I don't want a relationship because of all the drama and chaos it causes, I'd rather focus on me.
Being tall definitely help you get more girls. Being in a good relationship tho, is more about quality than quantity. Boost ur confidence then you’ll get better at conversations.
6’3 is like the tip of the iceberg. Its borderline too tall for me. I like 5’7-6’2. Very few 5’6 or 6’3 men would be an exception to the rule
I am 6ft but i have experimented with wearing special shoes that made me 2 inches taller. I did notice a difference with women but I am not sure it was the placebo effect of feeling more confident for being taller.
Yes! Being 6’ 3” is the male equivalent of having double D breasts. Studies have shown a 6’ man who makes $62,000 per year and a 5’ 6” man who makes $237,000 are equally appealing to women.
keeping the conversation going is more important than height or looks.. if you find the person who is truly interested in you and both of you arw like-minded . keeping a conversation going is not a hard job
I'm 6'3 myself and it has got me noticed a few times and has helped me attract women, but it is not a guarantee you still need to be able to convey personality and warmth and the ability to show confidence.
