There’s this funny thing that sometimes happens to me when I meet a couple. The girl will sometimes ask me how tall I am and then I tell them. Then the guy will jump in and add inches to my height like no way bro you’re way taller than that lol as if I don’t know my own height 😂 Took me awhile to catch on, but I finally realized they need to make me taller because they are lying to the girl about their height. 😂

I’m 6’1 but when people ask I like to say 6 feet so my 5’11 kings passing as 6 feet get triggered😂🤌 can’t help myself💀😆
Weird. Maybe the process of exaggerating your height is a defense mechanism. Not that they are lying about theirs but rather by doing that to you they are undermining your attractiveness. Tall guys are more attractive, but around 6’ 3” it starts becoming unattractive to many women.
I've genuinely never been asked about my height, neither by women nor men, except for getting a passport
No I think it’s more like I’m standing right next to them and they have to say I’m taller to make themselves seem taller

The number of times men have told me I'm wrong about my own height when we can both see they are shorter than me 😂
As a fellow tall guy, you need to trigger both of them and lie about your height and say you’re just 6’0” or 5’11” 🤣🤣

Yup sounds about right lol. Also, it’s messed up how women can filter men on dating apps by height but men can’t filter women by weight. 🤷‍♀️ ( But women prob aren’t listing their weight anyway lol.)
Have you gotten the flip side? Sometimes short men showed admirable persistence wanting to be with me because, as they explained, I was their best hope for having tall kids 🤣
When I was younger and more reactive a gordito woman in the grocery store cornered me to ask how tall I was. I wasn’t in the mood so I snapped back with “how much do you weigh?” Went over like an expired bag of twinkies.

People will always blow smoke up your arse for something. What’s great about having a close circle comprised of Bitcoiners, in my experience, is they want nothing from you but your friendship, a shared experience on this wild journey outside of the matrix, and knowledge. Bro’s being bro’s.

I have this thing I call height dysmorphia - if anyone is within about 5” of my height, I always think we are the same height Then one day they will tell me their neigh and I will be shocked to find out they are 4” shorter or taller than me 😂

Outside the US, unfortunately, inches, feet, ounces, and Fahrenheit are just as incomprehensible as “soccer” and whatnot.
Or they want to point out that you must be extraordinarily tall, so they feel closer to the norm.

So you are saying they weren’t actually wingmaning you? 😂
When they ask me that, I say "five foot seven...teen" and wait for the confused dog look while they sort out the remainder division. When they ask me if I play basketball, I insist I'm a jockey or a gymnast.
I've heard it's the same for tall women. Gabriella Reese mentioned every guy tells her she's 6'5" or more when she's really 6'3" so that they can be "6 feet tall"
Brits still use feet and inches, pounds and stone when talking about height and weight - except when we go to the doctors who insist on using Euro measurements for some reason!

I don't like the attitude of british and american people when talking to the rest of the world. Who gives a fuck about inch and feet anyways?
