I need a little reassurance!

So.
I’m 5′7
And have size 7-7 1/2 feet.

All I want is to feel feminine once in a while.
Wear heels during the day.
And really pretty dainty clothes.

But because of my height compared to every other female around here I just can’t.
I feel like people would look at me for being “too tall” and that I would look stupid in cute clothes because I’m not the size 6 that every other girl I know is.
I’m not fat.
I’m a size 10.
But It makes me feel big and uncomfortable.
I also worry people are going to think my feet look stupidly big.

I know its not really something to worry about.
But my confidence is already so low.
I just think If I can get past this stupid insecurity then my life would be so much better.

What do guys think of tall girls?
And are there any tall girls who love it?

You are not too tall and your size is just right-why all of you teens think you have to be a 2 or a zero is beyond me-guys dig tall girls and your feet are an average size-people a lot shorter than you wear the same size or bigger sometimes(shoes) So, whoever is telling you about your so-called flaws is a total idiot-trust me, you are fine just the way you are-go out and enjoy life and screw those people who want to make you unhappy by suggesting you are not okay-they are just probably jealous

Seriously girl count yourself lucky!
Size 7 feet is average. Especially for your height! I’m about 5′9 and i have size 8/9 sized feet. I hate it as it makes finding shoes impossible.
And you’re a size 10!
Ah i wish you could understand how i strive to be that size! Don’t care about what people think of you if you wore heels all day every day. You’ve obviously got the figure and you can find your sized shoes easily because they’re not too big so you’ll easily stand out for being the tall beautiful one!
Plus, if you’re taller than everyone else, chances are you’ll catch a guys eye ;)

Thankyou.
Its not for other guys really.
I have a wonderful boyfriend who is always telling me that Im perfect the way I am..But I just can’t find the self confidence to go outside in what I want and hold my head up high.
I used to have size 8 feet but for some strange reason they shrunk =/ I will never understand it =]
Do you like your height??
Or wear heels at all?
I have a friend who is 5′11..Shes the only girl I know who is taller than me and she alllways wears 3 inch heels.
She gets plenty of attention from guys..but do you think its her height or her confidence that they are going for??
Thankyou both.

Confidence, ofcourse, her height has nothing to do with it-she probably exudes confidence. Unfortunately, one bad experience in our lives can completely destroy confidence. People can be really cruel, especially if they are envious of you! Wear those heels,and be safe,and strut your confident self-you have a boyfriend, you are way ahead of most people right there-if he believes in you,so should you! I can’t believe you are even having this problem because you sound like a nice, caring person! Someone must have said something to knock you down this far-they don’t matter-what matters is you have someone in your life that knows you are just fine the way you are-go with that and build on it!

I love my height. I don’t like my weight but that’s a different matter.
If you’re comfortable in your own skin, then don’t listen to what anyone else says. I wear heels, but i’m so picky about what i wear because i can’t walk in most!! But confidence is a massive aspect of it. If you’re not confident then you’ll try and make yourself seem smaller so people won’t notice you. Maybe you’re just becoming more confident and that’s not a bad thing at all :))
Listen to your boyfriend! xx

Thankyou again.
I was bullied for my height and my weight when I was younger.
I’ve always been the tallest girl in my classes through school and college and I guess I just ended up believing it.
I get ready to go out.
Whether its just to the shop or going out with some friends, I put on some heels and by the time I get to the door they’re off and im in a pair of flats.
I know that how I view myself may be a tad over the top..even a little dramatic.
But i’ve drilled it into my head that I’m not right.
I havent left the house without makeup in 5 years.
I’m starting uni soon.
It’s just down the road so it wont strain our relationship but I want to turn up being this confident and happy person.
I want people to see me as fun and not just depressing.
I want to not care If im taller than all of the girls and a lot of the guys.
Sorry if this seems like im just complaining for the sake of it =]!
I’m jsut growing pretty fed up of it.
I mean..my boyfriend always tells me I look nice and that he thinks im cute.
But my head just ignores it.
