I am 6'3 in height and I am 19 yrs of age. I usually feel too tall when I walk around my age mates and what makes me feel insecure the most is when people start saying that I am long.

Tall people out there, how do you survive? I also hate it when people stare at my height when I am walking in the street because I am the kind of person that likes being conspicuous and unseen.

At times I just wish I wasn't so tall, so I would like to know at what age does one stop growing in height?

Be proud of your height.

you are really foolish

One thing about tall people is that you can easily find them when in the crowd... All you have to do is climb a chair and look for the tallest one in the crowd and you'll find him...

wow, that is nice

The only draw back to being tall is when you are walking behind people they suddenly turn around thinking its a criminal coming to attack them. Happened to me again 2 days ago, was talking a walk and a white woman in my front suddenly got scared. In Nigeria, many mistook me for a pick pocket while i was walking behind their back. Compared to why short guys face ( they are constantly rejected by women as they want tall genes for their kids). You no get problem abeg

I be 6'5, I've never felt bad about it, I don't even see my self as a tall person until people started talking about my height, but I felt it'll look somehow as a woman as men will feel intimidated to approach her.

Shorter people also appear to have longer average lifespans. The authors suggest that the differences in longevity between the sexes is due to their height differences because men average about 8.0% taller than women and have a 7.9% lower life expectancy at birth.(culled)

Short or tall, just give God the glory.

I make my foot wears and it's so sad cause most beautiful shoes are of average sizes

Being tall is my biggest flex, I am 6”1, it gives me confident and courage, before you go wan body me, you go observe well, girls naturally love tall boys, boys as well may often compliment you, especially if you are good at a particular sport, turn your insecurities to strength

Because of how I carry and compose my self people often conclude I am some bold, rugged, and confident fella even before they say hi to me

The disadvantage of being tall to me however is that several or countless times I don nod doorframes because i miscalculated
