Thread 82911390

What do men think about tall women or women as tall as them? How do they register to your brain and feelings compared to short or average women?

To add some more context, I had a dream where I was a man and I had 2 women with me. One woman was roughly my height (she was tall) and it felt kind of like equal and friend-like. The other woman was very short and feeling her like tinier body in contrast to mine felt pretty hot and primal.

Then I woke up. I'm a straight fem btw. Just want to know how men feel.

>>82911390 (OP)
I like tall girls, they don't usually like me as i'm short

>>82911401
this is how i feel too desu, i like tall women and some part of me even thinks "that would be some nice genes" but short women are just so cute, they really awake my protective instincts

I'm tall and I find tall women very attractive. But I like to date alpha female types who are leaders to other women. And I'm autistic so I think about genes and if we have sons. I don't think of talk women as peers or friends I feel an urge to dominate them and the challenge sounds fun.

Tall women are hot and I want to marry one and make superior babies with her

>>82911390 (OP)
I prefer taller women. It works out sometimes.

>>82911390 (OP)
Left is hotter, simple as that

>>82911390 (OP)
Tall women are for breeding, short women are for teasing.
>>82911401
Projection.

>>82911793
You think strong sexual dimorphism is projection?

>>82911390 (OP)
Tall women who are also power bottoms have my permission to ruin my life.

Otherwise, indifferent.

Tall men that date short women are throwing away their genetic legacy to play the dating game on easy mode. I feel bad for them.
-t. man with a wife 5 inches taller than him

>>82911809
No, OP is projecting her desire for tall men and lack of desire for short men onto the dream man.

>>82911831
I was a man in my dream and I felt the difference of handling a short woman, how her size contrasted to mine, how it was strongly sexual. The same height/taller woman felt more like an equal and friend.

>>82911844
Yes, like I said, you are projecting your female sexuality (wanting a size contrast, wanting to be manhandled) onto a dream man. We're saying the same thing, you just don't understand.

>>82911889
Many men agree though.

>>82911894
And yet none of them have responded to this thread. Curious. Men will say whatever it takes to get into your pants. Short women like tall men so tall men pretend to prefer short women to get short women into bed. See >>82911820

>>82911916
There are a lot of short women in anime/media/porn for men.

i would love to have a gf taller than me, but i'm not really good at talking to women and they make me feel nervous, even more so if they are taller.

Beyond origirilly brutal

>>82911937
Sure, but not nearly as many or with as big a height difference as in porn for women. Men will jerk off to just about anything.

>>82911390 (OP)
>What do men think about tall women or women as tall as them?
i dunno but me in particular, they make my heart skip a beat
tall women are hot and i can't deny it

>How do they register to your brain and feelings compared to short or average women?
short and average women are ok, i don't really think they're good or bad based on that
but tall women... i might as well start blushing just being near one
too bad i'm 5'11 so not a lot of women are my height or taller, but the few that are, god...

This is boosting my confidence thanks anons

I wish I could date taller women. They're so majestic.
I'm 6'0 so it's not stupidly tall and on rare occasions I get height mogged by a girl who's 6'1 or 6'2 at least.
The tallest girl I've seen was a girl who was 6'4.

>>82911401
i guess to a lot of people it may seem like that, power dynamics and all, you're not entirely wrong there
but to me in particular, refer to the picture you posted in the OP
to me it's less so about towering over people, dominating them etc. but more so having them bend the knee willingly, knowing they could overpower me but willingly choosing not to

>>82911985
how tall are you anon? would you mind having a shorter partner?

>>82912026
6ft. No I wouldn't mind. But I do mind e relationship
No fucking way I will be doing that.

Never seen a woman taller than me but I would be into that. Tall woman are extremely attractive to me.

>>82911390 (OP)
I've only ever seen one woman taller than me, but im 6'4"

>>82912051
that is nice. do you have bad experiences with e relationships?

>>82911401
You won't get many answers that reflect the general population here since most people here are manlet minorities with fucked up fetishes and a 70% unemployment rate. If thats what you want cool but keep that in mind

>>82911985
You should have far more confidence than womanlets. Their existence is dysgenic and they create manlet sons (a curse).

>>82911390 (OP)
I'm a bit over 6' tall, live in the upper midwest (lots of tall people), and most of my early girlfriends were tall. One was 5'9" and another was 5'11". They didn't register as being more like a friend than the short women who I've dated. I pursued them because I found them attractive and liked their personalities. Friendship developed naturally as we got to know each other.

I have dated 2 short women. One was 5'2" and I got along great with her as a friend.

>>82912101
No. Never had any. Never will either.

>>82912133
Men say that tall women are to much. Or they just treat us that way. Unless you are sickly skinny. But I want to be jacked and lean like picrel.

But is it true that men see you more as an equal? I fucking hate idea of a man looking down on me like a child. When I stand next to taller guys I just.. don't get the hype. Yeah they make me feel cute but at the same time it's infantilizing. I want to be buddy buddy with men.

>>82911390 (OP)
I'm 6'0'' and a tall gf is beyond my wildest dreams at this point. I can't even talk to short women. I'm too old to boot

>>82912213
>see you more as an equal
You would be more intimidating to the average man but I don't think you'd ever be seen as an equal. Even if you can beat the shit out of a guy you're still a woman. Even if you can pick me up and carry me in a princess carry you're still a woman to me. I don't know what you mean by equal exactly but if you mean I would treat you like a man then I wouldn't.

>>82912213
>is it true that men see you more as an equal?
depends on the guy, and it doesn't depend on your height at all, actually
being treated one way or another is more a matter of attitude than build, really

>>82911390 (OP)
It really depends on the woman. Height is rarely a factor to me. Face, hair, shape, distribution of fat is way more interesting.

I'm not representative but for me tall women make my heart go doki doki. I'm like 5'8.
I've also been thinking that it could be nice to be with someone who's exactly the same height, so we could look straight into each other's eyes. Feels like it'd be romantic, perhaps.

I feel like it'd feel weird to date someone who's significantly shorter than me. Slightly shorter is fine, but I feel like at some point, them being much shorter could become a negative.

>>82912213
>I want to be buddy buddy with men
Yes but you want to fuck the one who makes you feel cute and infantilized. I mean, men generally don't care about a woman being tall or short.

>>82912242
>Even if you can beat the shit out of a guy you're still a woman. Even if you can pick me up and carry me in a princess carry you're still a woman to me
What a dickhead response. I wasn't asking to be treated like a man, I was asking to be treated as an equal
>>82912247
Very good response. The other anon is prime example

>>82911390 (OP)
I love tall women because I am able to rest my head upon their breasts and feel emotionally safe in her breasts.
I'm 5'8 and only encountered 3 women who were taller than me, and 2 of them didn't like me fully.

I have dreams where I am being forcefully cuddled by a tall girl as she presses my head against her breasts.

Pic rel.

>>82911390 (OP)
Tall women are more likely to dislike their genetics. A woman who dislikes her genetics is relatable to me because I dislike my genetics, so tall women are inherently interesting to me.

Apart from that, the same heart beats in a woman no matter her size.

>>82912213
But how do you feel standing next to shorter guys?

>>82912507
Normal. If they dont judge me I don't judge them. But sometimes I like fucking with them and having an ominous downward look, sometimes I do it without really meaning to. I did this to a coworker I had, I thought he was hot asf. He was like 5'7 or 5'8 but hot he indeed was. He stopped walking in front of me, and began walking behind me to escape my gaze lel

>>82912566
He had a crush on you and wanted to date you and marry you. Why didn't you go for it?

>>82912454
meh, frankly not surprising, a lot of people (guys and girls) don't see "equals" in others, unless in very specific senses of it
were you thinking about like, "equal" as a person or something else? like, elaborate on that if you will

>>82911390 (OP)
I thinks fine. As long as she hot and not a cunt, i would bang.

>>82912051
How tall were your partners for your real life relationships?

>>82911793
Us short men usually had at least ONE short parent. And that short parent is usually the woman. Men like short women because that's the closest they can get to youth sex children. Or I'm projecting inner thoughts, or insecurities, and need to rope myself for one reason or the other.

>>82911390 (OP)
Im 6ft2 and have a BIG prefrence for tall woman. Like I would still date a short girl but 1000% prefer a girl thats ATLEAST 5ft10, I feel if the girls short it feels a little gross like im dating a kid lol

>>82912580
Nah he was way out of my league. As said, he was extremely hot and had problem with women. I probably couldn't but I don't just go after every guy I find attractive. I aint a whore
>>82912635
Never had one

>>82912706
How old are you? I'm not saying e-relationships are a good thing, but surely they're better than nothing.

>>82912718
She's not gonna fuck you bro. Just stop.

>>82912600
Yeah equal like a person. For example, the idea of him "having his way with me" is unappealing to me. Yeah i can be fine with it sometimes, but its incredibly rapey and I dont like that. I don't like the idea of being conquered. I want to be besties with him, and i want the relationship and the intimacy to reflect that

>>82912718
They are not better than nothing they are worse. I would be a whore if i pick up any attractive guy I see, and I would be an even bigger whore if I went for some dude on 4chan

>>82912441
No. I wouldn't want that at ALL. Disgusting

>>82912736
hmm... i get that, yeah
it's all about balance with me as well, i want companionship from a girl after all, and at most, a give and take
i'll definitely let her metaphorically pull on my leash if she lets me metaphorically pull hers, but there's not much escape from these "power dynamics"

you eitherhave the other under one's thumb (unbalanced), both of you hanging tight to each other, side by side (balanced), or you're not together at all
i'm not into the idea of conquering or being conquered, but both at the same time wouldn't be too bad? if that makes any sense, lol

+1 respect anon, never thought i'd meet someone (apparently) like-minded in that aspect around these parts

>>82911390 (OP)
Love tall women
because i love long legs

>>82912736
Do you have a low libido? What you're asking for doesn't seem unattainable, but I imagine that you'd have better luck with men who are lower on the libido spectrum.

>>82912772
also hugs for obvious reasons

>>82912776
>Doesnt want to engage in rape play
>Do you have low libido?
How much of a porn rotted brain do you have nigger

>>82912776
BAHAHA THAT IS HILARIOUS. WHY DO YOU ASK THAT? IF I HAVE LOW LIBIDO?

ive never met a woman as tall as me because im 6'3(191cm)

>>82911390 (OP)
I just ignore them because I assume if they're 6'2 their brain stem level heightism has made them mentally ill for two reasons:
>to feel like a 4 year old girl getting raped as all women want to, they need a 7'10 freak of nature
>they feel masculinized, brutish and disgusting at all times which gives them self esteem problems worse than fat girls have
Overall, best steer clear of them

>>82912766
INCREDIBLY based response and take anon.its about the equal leash thing. Though I do want to tug him a bit. But ofc he could do it too. I dont get the obsession bit an extremely sub dom relationship. Like it give off the vibes that one or the other is in a disadvantageous position. How in the world does a "healthy" relationship have such a dynamic? I don't think such a dynamic can be found in a healthy relationship.

Super based take anon.

>>82912706
Sad story, OP.

>>82913029
ayy. here, pic related, you got a call

>I do want to tug him a bit.
of course, it's a balance, not a flatline
one tugs from one end, the other tugs from the other, it's great, man
i've never got into a relationship but i know that's definitely one of the things i'd want there

>How in the world does a "healthy" relationship have such a dynamic?
in their defense, some people naturally lean toward one side a bit much, and they need the opposite to even the scales and balance it out
in my case (and yours too i imagine), there's no leaning to either side much, so to keep the balance, i (we?)'d need someone elsewho also doesn't lean toward either one

there are a bunch of other factors that play into having a "healthy" relationship, but yeah...
i just know it isn't for me to be under someone else's thumb (i'm averse to control) nor do i like to take the reins of someone else for too long either (i'm much too nurturing for that)

now, if only you were close to me, i'd start bombarding you with other questions about all sorts of topics to try and get to know you better, kek
but i'm content with knowing people like you exist in the world, i appreciate you

>>82913119
You weren't talking to OP in this thread. I made the thread but a different tall girl chimed in and sharing her thoughts. But I'm reading ITT.

>>82913198
A different girl chimed in and you're not commiserating about your shared struggle? Sheesh.

>>82913156
>in their defense, some people naturally lean toward one side a bit much, and they need the opposite to even the scales and balance it out
Ok that part of agree with. But at the same time I feel like it's something we are socialised into (especially women). In the case of women, I would say that we are told that we should be weak. Not that being submissive is necessarily weak, but I think that the reason so many women feel the need to have a taller dude is due to this idea that we can't or shouldn't be strong or independent. We are told to play damsel in distress. We are told that some man is going to do it all, even the things that he doesn't know to do. (I think thats why alot of women dont communicate their desires and need and thus they end up resenting their man). But there is no prince in shining armour. There are people who happen to have a penis. I do agree one has to balance things out, but I think its starts in the cradle. Teaching kids that this is not a fairy tale, but that this is life. You don't meet characters you meet people.

Anon, you are a cutie pie. How old are you?

>>82913119
Being tall has many benefits. At night I dress like a roadman with my hoodie up and puffer jacket and I end up making men scared instead of being scared myself.

I'm very tall but it has only been a detriment to me, the only relationship I've had I had to approach the guy and ask. I think men are either unattracted to really tall women or intimidated

>>82911390 (OP)
>>82911401
I personally prefer roughly equal (+-2") height and don't particularly mind anyone taller either. Them "feeling" more equal is definitely true, not to tear down short women or anything since I don't discriminate based on height.
With most women, especially on the shorter end, the implicit societal pressure to assist and protect them due to being seen as "vulnerable" is a bit of a barrier to feeling equal. I don't mind helping anyone out with anything, I'm even happy to do it for the most part, but it does feel liberating not having that pressure of obligation, which does make it easier to relax around them and be friends, partners or whatever.
Being closer to the height that infrastructure is built around is a benefit too, not to mention not being perceived as an easy victim, which makes it easier not to worry about someone if they are alone somewhere.
I guess some extra body weight isn't quite as visible either which is nice. This is anecdotal but tall women also seem to be either more chill on average or absolute bitches, the latter of which are pretty easy to not associate with though due to wearing it on their sleeves.
I'm not into very short women myself so I'm not quite objective there and do have my own preferences, but I'm not into the entire size gap thing and find it pretty awkward. And as for relationships i'd be looking explicity for an equal partner and not a glorified super high maintenance pet.
Just my two cents from an average height, non sociopathic yuro perspective though.

>>82911390 (OP)
I think it matters less what I think about them and more about what they think about me

>>82913363
Yo how tall are we speaking?

>>82913363
Did that not embolden you to ask men out more often?

>>82913313
>I feel like it's something we are socialised into
hmm... hard to disagree with that, gender roles and stuff do play a part in shaping a person's mind
good point, but then again i'm not sure such conditioning can be broken once established, maybe through some discoveries but as for how to get to them, well... not so straightforward

the lack of communication is also a problem, communication is the lifeline of any relationship after all, but sometimes it's hard to talk
on the guys' side, there's also that stigma that if you talk about your feelings or admit not being able to do something, you may be ostracized for it, so there's this pressure to "man up" and tough it out
man... i wish people could just be themselves, but it's not so simple

>I think its starts in the cradle.
yeah
if i ever have kids (i want a daughter in the future, as unlikely as that may seem, on that note), i'm going to teach them to be themselves and do what makes them happy
to not fall for the traps out there, not let others tell them how they should feel, act, be

>you are a cutie pie.
maybe stop looking in a mirror when you say that, lol
and i'm turning 29 in a week or two so, i'm an oldie already, sorry anon
how about you though?

I'm 6'2" and prefer tall, curvy women over petite ones (and no I don't want her to dominate me)

>>82913398
6'4" , we're talking circus freak

>>82913410
No it gave me self-esteem and social anxiety issues

>>82913456
>6'4" , we're talking circus freak
how would you feel if a person asked you out and told you that they're attracted to your height?

I've seen a lot of women my height or more, and I'm not even short, just a few cm below average in me country, and I hate the way I can just feel that I'm not even a person in their eyes. they quickly avoid eye contact if our eyes meet, they cross the street to avoid being near me.
Women are demons, no matter the height

>>82913363
>>82913456
It's more relative for men IMO, if I were over 6'4" I'd be fine dating a woman of your height

>>82913466
Saying they were attracted to my height would be a red flag, but honestly I'd probably be so flattered that a guy asked me, that I'd not mind it

>>82913486
That makes sense, but very few men or people in general are taller

>>82913499
>Saying they were attracted to my height would be a red flag
i thought so. i have always liked tall women, but mentioning it sounds like fetishizing even though that's not the intention.
>I'd not mind it
what if i asked you out right now?

>>82913436
>wish people could just be themselves, but it's not so simple
Word. I dont even think the idea of men "doing it all" has any evolutionary benefit. It just doesn't make sense. Men are people to :'( . At least women CAN be weak. Men can't. Crazy. And society reinforces that too. I am not saying we can't have gender roles, but that much of what we think of as gender roles are straight bullshit. Like crying, being strong or physically active, having great aspirations ect. These are not gendered.

>i want a daughter in the future, as unlikely as that may seem, on that note
That is so adorable. And I dont think its unlikely at all anon. You would probably make a great dad.

>i'm an oldie already, sorry anon.
You ain't old wtf. 28/29 isn't old anon. I might shock when I say this but I'm 19.

>what are your interests anon?

>>82913313
>>82913559
Just a heads-up, if someone has a name or tripcode then you can (and should) look them up before you start making assumptions about them. Junas has a reputation that you might want to watch out for.

>900 posts in just the last month alone, since he switched tripcodes from his last tripcode
Christ almighty...

>>82913514
If we were in person IRL, yeah maybe.

>>82913582
Wtf could this nigga do that was so wad?

>>82913582
an anon called him out on his trip usage some weeks ago, and he said he used it to "not spend too much time in here". it seems like using 4chan as a dating app has its consequences

>>82913559
>It just doesn't make sense.
aye, but i will agree there are things we're better suited for, not that women can't but more so we'd probably do them more easily, like plumbing related stuff or cleaning up heavier stuff like wardrobes

>At least women CAN be weak. Men can't. Crazy. And society reinforces that too.
but yeah... one of the many terrible double standards out there
i look funny at people when i'm at work and they spew this nonsense, even if jokingly or unconsciously, lol
>that much of what we think of as gender roles are straight bullshit.
right? i mean shit, men and women can do whatever they want, it's just that sometimes, men will find it easier to do some things than others, same with women, and that's not bad and it shouldn't be as restrictive

>I dont think its unlikely at all anon
nah it really is, lol
but who knows, life does like fucking with my predictions
>You would probably make a great dad.
thanks, i hope so too
one of my dreams is to have a daughter who looks up to me and loves me, just as i'd be proud of her and love her

>You ain't old
lol, you think?
>I might shock when I say this but I'm 19.
bit of a shock but not really, more like a mild zap
you have a nice mindset for a 19 year old, especially one that wanders around this place

>what are your interests anon?
i like playing games, reading manga (the usual), cooking, cycling around the beachside is also nice, and talking to nice people around here
been spending my time here lately, loneliness hitting me hard since i moved out and worsening

>>82913582
what's my reputation? didn't know i mattered so much to people that they'd keep tabs on me
i'm flattered, really

>>82911390 (OP)
What I don't like about being a tall female is that men kinda fetishize you as a "mommy" or dominant one. They rarely feel that you are precious, a pet or sub.

>>82911390 (OP)
tall foids viscerally disgust me. they should be off molesting children or marrying 5' 2" twinks with cute faces where they play the man and the twink plays the woman. not something i am personally into.

>>82913703
I could spend hours brushing your hair but if you insist on it being petplay then I'm out.

>>82913499
>Saying they were attracted to my height would be a red flag

>>82911390 (OP)
Women over 6' are rare but I wouldn't mind. They register the same to me as any other women I guess.

>>82911390 (OP)
I see tall women as mommies but they hate that because all women want to feel cute and small.

>>82913703
Meh, small girls often look too delicate to me, I would rather ravish and manhandle a taller one

>>82913703
Small dom big sub is based though

>>82913758
I'd hope my boyfriend will feel this way about me.

>>82913717
Lmao this short foid is absolutely seething at this thread.

>>82911390 (OP)
I'm 6'4" so if I met a woman who heightmatches or heightmoggs me I would be terrified and aroused.

>>82913781
Here's hoping we both get what we want

pic semi-related, a 6'1" lady I sometimes fapped to

How tall are you?

>>82913687
>>82913687

>like plumbing related stuff or cleaning up heavier stuff like wardrobes

Or building wardrobes. I cant do that for the life of me. I think alot of girls would agree on that.

>nah it really is

Why do you think its unlikely anon? You could land i am sure of it.


>You ain't old

Not at all. Your in your twenties dude. You have loads of time. Twenties seem like the most exciting shit ever, you are young and independent. Can't wait. Use your time wisely anon. You wont be this young forever


>just as i'd be proud of her and love her

This is so sweet I swear. Anon, you need to be more positive. You will make it sweetie, I am sure of it.


>especially one that wanders around this place

Yeah this is a hellscape. I like to troll facist/nazis tho.


>loneliness hitting me hard since i moved out and worsening

Thats very sad to hear. I am sending virtual hugs. You're a great guy, keep your head up. I would also want an elaboration, what's causing you sorrow anon?


Sorry, my device is tweaking

>>82911390 (OP)
An attractive woman is an attractive woman. For me, there is no need to complicate it beyond that. Height is irrelevant as an individual trait, only being meaningful as part of the collective individual. Only insecure men would turn away a woman for being taller than him. I would not give a fuck; she'd be laying under my waist anyway. That said, the right side on the image is hotter because she's getting dominated and shown her place.

>>82913870
>building wardrobes.
oh yeah fuck, putting furniture together or even building it
i'm no carpenter but i do like putting things together, so you got me on that one, lol

>Why do you think its unlikely anon?
erm... i'm not exactly someone who approaches a lot of people
even here, i'm usually reluctant to give anyone a contact or something (although i have given a burner email and it doesn't seem to bother me much), so that along with some other things make it unlikely i'll ever meet a girl to build a family with

>You have loads of time.
lol, it's gotta be the first time in years i hear someone say that of a 28/29 year old, how refreshing
>Can't wait.
don't be too excited, independence comes with responsibility and those are not fun, kek

>this is a hellscape.
home.
seriously though have you ever played oneshot? if so, i see this board like the barrens
dark, cold, lifeless, with lots of broken robots lying around, but still with the rare soul trying to just live by

>I am sending virtual hugs.
thank you, have one too, fren
i may disagree with your compliments but i'll graciously accept

>what's causing you sorrow anon?
i'm a loner who hates being alone, but i'm also not very straightforward about it for many bad reasons
i've always lived with people but i recently moved out to live alone, and it's been harsher on me than i thought it would be

>my device is tweaking
it's what now?
also, tell me about your interests then, what do you like to do on your free time? other than to troll these "people" here, lol

>>82913941
>erm... i'm not exactly someone who approaches a lot of people
Get out there anon! You need to get out of your comfort zone dude. You say you like cycling eh? Go to a cycling club. You like vidya? Find peoplw to play with physically. I know that in our isolated world where making a friend after college seems impossible its easy to just stay inside. But trust me when i say that you meet people in the weirdest and wackiest ways. Though I might be the one to give much advice because i dont have many friends either, but honestly it's because i am picky with who i want around.

>don't be too excited, independence comes with responsibility and those are not fun, kek
I dont doubt it. My gap year life is kicking my ass. But i cant wait to get out there. I never did much in my teens. Never went to parties and i dont do drugs/drink. I was never interested i cant lie, and if i went to parties i would probably be pressured into it. But once i move out i can just indulge in my own interests and not give a shit about curfews.

>seriously though have you ever played oneshot?
I havent! I stopped playing vidya a couple years ago. But i would like to try. But yeah, most folks here are seething fuckups.

> may disagree with your compliments
Don't. Compliments are given for a reason and I dont give them with a good one.

>it's been harsher on me than i thought it would be
I dont doubt that loving alone is harsh. It gets better anon, it really does. Whats better is if you go out. There are loads of folks to talk to. I like going to lectures that universities nearby hold. Loads of people you can talk to. Anon, to make your house a home, you need to fill it with what comforts you. People, interests and much much more.

>also, tell me about your interests then?
Photography, arts and crafts. I recently got into sewing and im trying to get into hiking too. I used to be a big anime fan, im gonna get back to that too. Also... reading! My favourite novel is metamorphosis by kafka

Look, I like tall women.
Why shouldn't I?
I'm just 6'1" 1.85
I expect a nice personality though.

>>82914218
>you meet people in the weirdest and wackiest ways.
yeah, i get that
a coworker told me about a geek con happening nearby in jan, i'll be going there so that's a start
cycling clubs don't interest me that much, not much time to do it nowadays, i usually just go to the beachside on weekends sometimes
i sure do enjoy riding it though... but a club seems like a commitment that i'm not quite sure i'd enjoy, if you know what i mean

>i am picky with who i want around.
relatable (kind of), i'm a former pyromaniac myself and burned too many bridges
but i'm a guarded person so i can more or less see where you're coming from
how many friends do you have?

>gap year
eh, i had 4 years as "gaps", don't be so harsh on yourself
>not give a shit about curfews.
well, so long as you don't get back home past 8-9 pm or something, should be fine, right?
i mean shit can get crazy late at night...
and yeah i never did much in my teens either, i just wasted away playing games

>I stopped playing vidya a couple years ago.
what brought that on?
>i would like to try.
do it, it's one of my favorite games and quite short too, but very nice
get the original one on steam for PC, world machine edition is best for consoles but not as immersive
puzzle game though

>I dont give them with a good one.
it's a matter of perspective, anon
i highly appreciate your comments but my self-image sucks, please forgive me on that

>Whats better is if you go out.
bleh... i never liked going out much, not alone at least
>Loads of people you can talk to.
i freeze when i try to talk to someone i'm not familiar with
doesn't apply here because it's more akin to "shouting at the void" instead, but yeah

>interests
very nice, there are so many things in this city i'd like to photograph sometime
>big anime fan
tell me more about this
>reading!
i can only ever read manga lol, i try to read (light) novels but i can't, i tried youjo senki, log horizon, wuthering heights, and some wheel of time, all unfinished

>>82911793
real and based and based and real

>>82914405
>how many friends do you have?
I know a couple of people, none that i am close to though. Got like 4 friends that i am not really close to, not counting my sisters though. I usually talk to them.

> coworker told me about a geek con happening nearby in jan, i'll be going there so that's a start
Thats a great start. But check out libraries and universities and colleges and all the free seminars they got. Love those. You said you freeze when talking? I'll tell you what there are so many lonely old people there, they are so easy to talk to. And they are so helpful too. I love old folks. You got to go out though anon. Humans are social, and we need physical contact. Go to libraries, gyms, parks... JUST GO OUT OK?? Trust me it's a game changer. Honestly it worries me that you dont go out. It's a slippery slope from that point. And no I wont be out suuuper late. I just go to libraries and universities and parks and walk around, take pictures. But I want the freedom to do whatever.

> i just wasted away playing games
Well most teens waste away too. Maybe not vidya, but partying, clubs, phones and what not. Heck, most people waste away, just differently. Dont be so harsh, you were a kid. Chin up sweetie, you got your whole life ahead of you.
>what brought that on? (Vidya)
Well I was too using alot of time on it. Also I played games becos my brother had HEAVY influence on me. He was a big gamer, so it rubbed off. That's also why I watched anime. But I stopped because it took alot of my time. But I want to watch it again as I miss it. Mob psycho was my FAV!

But I dont read manga. Been thinking of reading berserk tho. But i like normal novels. Currently reading crime and punishment

>self-image sucks
In this cruel world, you need to show yourself mercy. You're stuck with yourself, so be kind to yourself. If there is something you would like to change, do it with love. The person who should love yourself the most is well... yourself! Take care of yourself anon

>>82914650
>none that i am close to though.
it's... harsh not to know anyone close to you
i only have one online friend who i'm really close to, but it took years to reach that point (we met when i was 17, lol)
i think it was a combo of effort and luck, but we don't talk all that much nowadays... we're still there for each other though, but it does get lonely
i'd offer to give you that kind of close friendship if you were willing but i'm not easy to deal with, nor is it that simple or straightforward
i'd still try though

>JUST GO OUT OK??
boooooo
going out on my own sucks though, it's actually painful because i always see people hanging around and wish i could too
i usually won't say no if someone invites me out though
but i appreciate your effort quite a lot, anon
you really seem to care, possibly more than you should, kek
>no I wont be out suuuper late.
then what gives? do your folks make you come back by 5 pm or something?

>most people waste away, just differently.
that's... a good point
>Chin up sweetie, you got your whole life ahead of you.
thanks cupcake, i'll try to
no promises though, lol

>I was too using alot of time on it
i can relate, but i still never really quit
what kind of games did you play then?
>Mob psycho was my FAV!
gurren lagann here, but i've been considering reading mob psycho 100 lately
i just might
>Been thinking of reading berserk tho
good choice, never read but i've heard great things
lately i've been re-reading an old favorite, psyren
one of the characters there is the origin of my old name (and this trip)
>Currently reading crime and punishment
might be obvious but, what's it about?

>Take care of yourself anon
i try, really
i no longer batter myself for it, not as much, but i don't really like myself a lot
how's your self-image like?

>>82911401
so this is what foid dreams are like

>>82914805
>i'd still try though
Hmm... I'd have to think about your offer. I want you to flourish, seriously. I dont know how to do it safely on 4chan tho damn.

> i always see people hanging around and wish i could too
Dude going out is not just good because of other people being around. Getting fresh air is amazing for you. You should take up photography as a hobby, it helps you get out. PLEASE GET OUT. I rarely go out with people. I like to look around and see people living their lives, i would take pictures of them but thats creepy so i don't. I wish I could tho. But going out helps because it's unpredictable and creates an environment where you can think. I like listening to music but i like thinking better. When you go out alone, you could do the things you do at home, just in a new setting. And that new setting really helps alright.

>do your folks make you come back by 5 pm or something?
Yeah basically. They are scared because im a girl, but i am a 6ft one at that. I bet I'd look more intimidating than most men if i dressed in roadman clothes.

>what kind of games did you play then?
Fps mostly and some others( minecraft and animal crossing and smash bros). Apex legends was my fav tho, I LOVED BLOODHOUND.

>how's your self-image like?
I am very self critical. I want to be the best me, but i am not soft on myself. I replay my mistakes alot, and i struggle with being kind to myself. But i try. I like to say 3 thing i did well every day. It helps. I dont like myself alot either. But i like myself better than before. I like to run and take long multiple-step showers to help myself feel better. Cleaning my room, making good food. It helps me feel good. Going out and just walking helps me too. Fucking love walking. I try to go for a 1hour walk every day. I love my walks.

>>82915078
>I want you to flourish, seriously.
all in due time, anon
i may say all this downer crap but i know i'll find a way, i'm the kind who always finds solutions for everything
don't worry, i can still have one foot here and another irl, lol

>PLEASE GET OUT.
man, if you get over here and drag me out then sure, until then i shall stay at home, lol
i go out to work everyday though so it's not like i'm at home all the time
>You should take up photography as a hobby
i thought about it but i struggle enough with cycling as is, imagine that...
but maybe one day, i'm not against it
>When you go out alone, you could do the things you do at home, just in a new setting.
kind of? it wouldn't change much because i'd have my face glued to my phone though, lol
there's a library nearby that i like going to when i have lunch outside, so there's that

>They are scared because im a girl, but i am a 6ft one at that.
not unreasonable, but it sucks
a tip from someone who always lived in crazy dangerous areas: walk around normally, not overconfident but not too scared either

>some others
lol out of all those i only played minecraft, usually with mods
gotta go through skyfactory 5 after all... but yeah, i never really liked these kinds of competitive games so apex never called out to me
i can see it consuming a lot of time though, game addiction is no joke

>I am very self critical.
we're in a very similar spot then, anon
you're doing a lot more for yourself though, i really wish you were around
say, which country are you from anyway?

>>82915078
p.s. what kind of food are we talking here?
shit man cooking is dope

>>82911390 (OP)
>What do men think about tall women or women as tall as them?
Nothing.
>How do they register to your brain and feelings compared to short or average women?
I don't care about them as much as I don't care about other women.
But I've noticed that taller women tend to be more neurotic and stressed out.

>>82911390 (OP)
I don't care about a woman's height at all. Just don't be fat.

>>82915231
>i can still have one foot here and another irl, lol
I better not se you here anon. You got a trip code on ya. I want you to step in the sun ASAP. You will in due time, but the faster the better.
>i go out to work everyday though so it's not like i'm at home all the time
Even so, work is fucking depressing most of the time. Just doing something outside of work does wonders man.

>wouldn't change much because i'd have my face glued to my phone though, lol
GET OF THE PHONE DUDE NOOOO. I fucking hate phones. I deleted all my shit, insta tiktok everything a couple of years ago and I dont regret it at ALL. I do photography because It helps me not be on my phone. Also stopping vidya also helped me getting my screen time down. I like to think of going out as an opportunity to spice up my day. Even though libraries can boring, you can just grab a book and read it and that shit might change your life. My life was changes after reading metamorphosis by kafka. It was just a random grab.

>what kind of food are we talking here?
shit man cooking is dope
I like to make twists from cuisines i know. Indian middle Eastern Turkish african. I like to just make shit i would actually eat. So I modify recipes to cater to my needs and taste. Usually that means healthier. But I do eat slop every now and then. Heck i just made myselfa burger. Yummy. But I have thought about getting into baking. Looks challenging and fun :)

>which country are you from anyway?
Scandinavia, well sweden. What about you anon?

I went to prom with a girl who was 5 inches taller than me, but this was in 2010 back before dating apps made women more height obsessed than they already were. I like tall women but I know they don't like me so I don't bother. Even if I did come across a woman who was willing to settle for me at 5'6" I know women are extremely susceptible to social pressure and she'd just leave me because of all the derision and ridicule she'd face for dating a shorter guy.

>>82915602
>I better not se you here anon.
anon i've been here for many years now, i'm here forever lol
>I want you to step in the sun ASAP.
well it's gone by now, but i live in a closed off condo that takes the whole block, and there are walkways around with a bunch of plants and trees, so...
i walk out there semi frequently, so again, don't worry lol

>work is fucking depressing most of the time.
i like my job, and on my breaks i get a nice look of the city through the windows
it's not that bad, really
as for doing something outside of work, well i play my games, read my mangas, and talk to people over here
not much time since i work 9h a day, but i do things yeah

>GET OF THE PHONE DUDE NOOOO
kek'd
>I fucking hate phones.
same honestly, all i have on my phone is spotify, government and banking shit, and newpipe for watching jewtube
it's nice you're working to get your screen time down, but i'm not particularly against getting mine down
i was born practically in front of a screen anyway, kek
>metamorphosis by kafka
i'll look into it but no promises, again, i struggle with reading pure text

>I like to just make shit i would actually eat.
+1 respect, same here
often times i learn recipes from mom though, i also eat slop admittedly but i try to cook my own food as much as possible
last week i made pressure cooked shank with watercress, potatoes, and white rice
what's a dish you made recently?
>baking
funny, i just got a processor that has some baking stuff (fouets, a blade for dough, etc.)

>sweden
that's really far lol, i'm all the way from brazil
do you guys see auroras much over there?

>>82915666
Women are gooning to this and he is 5'6 btw

>>82915728
Hold on BRAZIL??? WOAH. DAMN WOW. That's sick asf mate. And I live far south in the country, so i dont see much aurora, but I have seen it. The further up you go the more common it is to see.

>don't worry lol
Okey, I will try. But no promise.

>i work 9h a day
That's actually crazy dude. They are evil at your firm. Madness. Your hobbies sound fun, but add in some more activities. Doesn't have to be much. Vidya and manga are fun, but physical activity does wonders for mental health.It really helped me :).

> was born practically in front of a screen anyway
But screens can do som terrible damage. We live in a world where we watch but dont do. You ought to do things anon. Doing things with your hands and feeling it, smelling the scene and letting the light flicker in your eyes, it will always surpass the feeling of being an onlooker.

>metamorphosis by kafka
PLEASE PLEASE READ IT. PLEASE. Its so short, only like 50 pages. If you can read it in one sitting. The book describes the feeling of inadequacy and thus becoming a shut in. Its so good made me fucking cry and have an existential crisis. Read Notes from the underground by Dostojevskij if you can too. Dostojevskij was one of those authors that knew the human soul. Read white nights if you can too.

>what's a dish you made recently
I made a chicken lentil curry with aromatic rice and couple of days ago. I like to add lentils to my curry because they boost the fiber and protein content. Also it's delish. Good luck on your baking journey anon <3

>I'm here forever
Don't say that. This is a hellscape. It drains the soul. Alot of the fellas here could have saved themselves, but the trenches claimed them. The deep hatred and negativity here kills growth. I've grown a liking to you anon, and I would tell any person I care deeply for to saty out of these kinds of websites, and so I will tel you to also not be here. I'm quitting myself.

Its 2:30am here. I'll have to leave this convo here. take care anon <3

>>82915991
>I have seen it.
that sounds epic, mom and i are both fascinated by those
one day i want to take her up there to see one personally

>I will try.
thank you

>They are evil at your firm. Madness.
oh it could be worse, trust me... that one is the least of my worries, kek
>add in some more activities.
i'll see what i can do, i've been considering signing up for a kendo dojo so there's that too

>You ought to do things anon.
maybe so, it may change in the future but for now, it is what it is

>Its so short, only like 50 pages
i'll see if i can find it at the library next week then
>Notes from the underground
>white nights
i'll add those to my long backlog...

>chicken lentil curry with aromatic rice
oho, i don't think i ever had lentil before, but that sounds absolutely fantastic
also i'm not trying my hand at baking anytime soon, just that if i ever do, i'm equipped, kek

>It drains the soul.
i've been here a bit over 10 years now, so yeah...
i still managed to go from a no future neet to a federal public employee though so not all is lost, anon
i like the people here, they keep me good company, i mean you're here aren't you?
>I will tel you to also not be here. I'm quitting myself.
it's... complicated
if you can get out then do it, but i feel right at home here
it sucks, has a lot of negativity, overall inhospitable but... pic related, that's me

thank you for talking to me today
feel free to reach out if you ever want to talk more, as i said i'm here forever :^)
sweet dreams, anon
