How Tall Are You?

[Just_Dave]

Hey Guys,

It's a simple question but it's one of my favorite openers for tall girls. I'm 6'1 and I got an athletic build to me, so when I meet a girl anywhere around my height, I just have to ask how tall she is. Depending on her response and the circumstance, you can jump right into introducing yourself.

How to implement: Innocent Curiosity
*Don't say it like she's a freak
*Say it like wow you're surprised in a way
*Say it with a sexy smile
*Don't insult her

Example: Dave in the grocery store
Dave: *Sees cute tall girl coming his way* *makes eye contact and holds up hand as if to say stop*
Girl: *sees Dave, and notices*
Dave: How tall are you *said with a smile and a sexy voice*
Girl: I'm 6'1
Dave: Wow *as in disbelief and skeptical look*
Girl: haha, I get asked that a lot
Dave: I'm sure, I'm Dave *extends hand*

It's really that simple, just don't come off as a douche and show genuine interest and you'll be fine.

Why??:Have a reason, cause she will ask
*Looked like you played *insert sport here*
*You looked around my height, just had to make sure*
*Just curious

Questions, comments, concerns?!

So fresh and so clean,

Just Dave

So fresh and so clean

Indeed! I love tall girls. I usually end up asking them this much later, though, once I'm on a date even. Must try it as an opener as you suggest—love it!

No problem man, let me know how it works out for you man! I'd love to receive feedback from you or anyone else for that matter.

Will do, certainly. I might tweak it a little to suit my own style. This means:

• I'd leave out the nonverbal "STOP" command—I'm not dominant enough to pull that off congruently—and instead, if she was coming my way I'd open over my shoulder right as she was passing; if in a mall or store, I'd come up beside her, parallel, no eye contact and open facing forward, not turning toward her.
  
• If she asked the reason, as you said girls tend to, I'd go direct at that point: "Because I love tall women... and you're very good-looking too".

Marty, thanks for making the talking over the shoulder comment! I actually used that today to open a beautiful tall girl, I kept my feet point because I unfortunately had a time constraint.

Another high note to you as well, about making the comment about tweaking! I think sometimes we all forget that we can mod something to not only make it work better for ourselves as you note, but could possibly find a way to make more effective for everyone down the road.

Dave,
I got a thing for tall girls. I'm pretty short for a man @ 5'9 but I've been working on my fundamentals like posture and eye contact. As a beginner should I go for a women that are just as tall or taller than me?

I saw one tonight in a grocery store. She had to be the tallest girl I have seen in some time but man.. did she have it going on in every aspect of the phrase. She didn't show me interest though so I didn't approach and my game is not sound enough for this yet but I find that since I have started there are a lot of women I'm interested in that are my height or taller. I did date two tall women well actually three in the past and they were hands down some of the sexiest women I have been with and the most fun.

If you have any advice on how to approach girls taller than me I would love to here it. Thanks.

Gijas,

I'll let Dave come back on your main question, but I think one thing that will help you enormously is confidence. In light of that:

I'm pretty short for a man @ 5'9

...average height for US males 20+ is 5'9½" so unless you live in Croatia, the Netherlands, or the Scandinavian countries, you're not that far below average.

Hopefully, remembering that might boost your self-assurance
