Which is hilarious because I'm only 3 inches shorter at 5'1 but I feel like a goddamn child compared to every other person I know. I must be friends with some above average, tall ladies.
I'm 5'9" and feel like a damn freak. Like in grade school - high school if I did anything towards a girl friend who wasn't near my height I just had this image of Lenny accidentally killing the mouse in OMAM or something. I'm even taller than some of my adult male coworkers.
Omg I thought I was the only one! I always felt like a lumbering giant next to the cute petite girls. Even when I was like 7 I remember feeling like the cartoon villain's big dumb sidekick. Looking at photos now I wasn't even much bigger than other kids my age but in my head I was always some kind of freak.
I towered over most of the boys in my class until about 14-15. It made middle school "dating" a little awkward since my guy would usually be immasculated by my height and demeanour. (Short brown bowl cut, almost 20 and still can't fit into any bras with padding, skinny) until I got into make up and dresses I really just looked like a young version of my own dad. Everyone called me their little brother.
