Am I too tall ? Is a girl being tall a turnoff for a guy?

I'm 16 years old female and am around 5'10 / 5'11. I feel like I'm too tall most of the time.

Is it bad to be this tall?

    HELL NO YOU"RE NOT TOO TALL. I know how you feel girly. I am also 5'10"-5'11" and I love it. You shouldn't give a crap about what other people think. Embrace it! I'm 18 and have never been on a date, never had a boyfriend, hell, I haven't even had my first kiss. Wear heels as high as you want and if they don't want you then they don't deserve you. You should feel proud of your body and you should love your body. You'll find someone to love you just the way you are. Don't change yourself to meet other people's ideas of beauty because I guarantee that you are gorgeous.

    For average guys they may be intimidated but taller guys won't care. I am 6'1" and like taller girls.

    I'm also a really tall girl and I understand what it feels like to be tall. I always found myself crouching and avoiding heels because I felt like a giant already. You have to learn to accept it. (I mean super models are some of the tallest girls around!) Just try to embrace it, buy those nice heels you like. It will feel weird at first but eventually you come to accept it and become less aware of it.

    I'm perfectly fine with tall girls. The main problem is that taller girls don't tend to want to go out with guys who are my height (5'8"), so I often don't even try.

    Are you curvy? Tall and curvy isn't a problem. Short and tall men will go after tall and curvy. Tall and built like a boy - that's going to turn some guys off.

    Be yourself. There is no ideal size.
