Oooook.

I pretty much noticed you when you came in and have watched your posts. And I got to say you are a truly nice genuine person, and I believe, the real deal when it comes to a Christian woman. Lot of people can talk the talk but I think you walk the walk. Take that in because those are not works I throw around lightly.

But I want you to think about something, study the women in the Bible, pray over it, and see what you get for an answer. Think about this concept.

TRUE Godly women don't have to beat demon men back with a constant proclamation of faith. For one demons won't listen and you are wasting your breath. Even painting a target on your back. Wolves like lambs of God but doesn't God shepard his flock? Yea wolves see the insecurity and will taunt and bully a Godly woman much more to test you. I personally don't think God expects it because he surely can handle demons. Didn't he allow you the option to just delete and ignore them? So who is in control? Soooooh how about just shake the demons off because you can not be defiled by someone else'a actions unless you endorse them. I don't see you doing that so don't feed the wolf even a crumb thinking about it. Pray for peace from this and you'll get it.

Next TRUE Godly women don't have to trumpet there faith to Godly men. A godly man will know you by your LOVE. I know you have heard that hymn. The way you treat other's, that your faith appears in your actions, that you have a modest and self respecting appearance. That you are a devoted mother. You really don't have to shout all that out in your life of your profile. Because while you are telling Godly men what they already know you are running out of breath for telling them all the cool good stuff about you. Like the great things you do with your kids, or in your church, or on your job. Things like hobbies your favorite song. Tell a joke. God has a sense of humor.

Not the least of which you are only sort of tall and when the one finds you your brother or anyone else is not going to scare him away and you will see how silly your fears sound. And come on you are not that tall. No taller than many; and barely taller than me and it never has held me back getting men so I would relax! God does not make junk.
And God does things in his own time schedule not ours. If you would stop stressing, and sorry Baby girl..whining and just accept all things are going like they are suppose to. You will meet the one and like everyone else said all the guys making excuses you didn't want. Come on how is the RIGHT one going to find you if they are in the way?

P.S. Good ones are watching. Take your bow and just Dance like everyone else hears the music.

Ohhhhh.... and jealousy race it's ugly head...ohh. poor baby.. big hug for you... better down.. now go play nice with all the other kids in the school yard..lol

Jealousy of wot? I'm tall and I got long legs myself, so I have no need to be jealous.
It's come to notice that you can be awfully rude. Proofs the value of the forums: someone that seems nice at first glance can indeed turn out to be a total @$$wipe.
You've clearly shown your true colours on the forums, and they aren't pretty to look at.

You resemble it??
So sorry to hear, lol.
If you mean "resent", you should've seen the things he has come up with on the forums! And those posts weren't deleted, so if "totally bad" is okay, I guess "a little bad" is too.
But this is not about that, I was replying to what he said to me here in this topic.
So let's get back on topic.

Yeah, I read the jealousy bit. The resemble remark is an old gag. It's late, I'm tired, I just couldn't sleep.

It has nothing to do with height or legs if a man is giving you excuses he is not interested in you.What matters is whether you are a nice person or not and you are Jp, so no worries its their loss.smile2

I'm 5"6, and never had a problem attracting the right kind of guy. I think it must be in something you're doing when you're presenting yourself. Say for instance, you may be walk to work, wearing short skirts, tights, high heels. You may just see it as dressing up for work. Whereas, a guy might think it looks sexy. I can see how things can get misunderstood. It might be worth wondering what you said to these guys, to make them act certain ways. Just my opinion, though. Or they could just be idiots, who aren't worth a second glance. flowers

I think men can indeed be somewhat intimidated by a taller woman, but I think it's mostly to do with radiating inner strength, which many people find scary, but that has nothing to do with a person's height. But all in all taller people intimidate more easily than shorter ones. In teaching it was an advantage but you got to live up to it, cos the initial intimidating effect due to height won't save your @$$ as a teach if you're simply a tall pushover.

Being tall as a woman makes it more difficult to find a partner, because many men are shorter. And I for one don't want a shorter partner. And many men prefer a short woman, even if she's much shorter than him, they seem to like that even more. I never got that, must make kissing and sex very awkward, but I guess it makes men feel more macho?

Why you keep mentioning long legs over and over, I don't really get. Don't see what that has to do with it. Makes me feel you are attention seeking to be honest.




When guys describe me, they say I am tall with long legs and smart. It is not an attention seeking statement. This is how I have been "labeled" since I can remember. Probably since 7th grade. It is nothing bad and it is me. I have very long femurs. Is it wrong to express something that makes me stand out from the average crowd? Something that people first notice about me. I did not post it for attention. I have been told that I intimidate men by men. I just wanted to see if the average population of men think this way or if it was something I personally need to focus on.

As a guy that is 6ft tall, I would be thrilled to date a girl that was the same-ish height as me, i'm gonna throw my back out having to bend down to kiss :p So yes, I think guys do appreciate it, nothing wrong with being model height right?

Like I said, I do think men can feel intimidated by a taller woman, based on my own experience, esp if she's confident. And I think many men feel more comfy/masculine with a short woman by their side. I think one can question whether those are the right guys to begin with, I mean, why do they need someone small to feel better about themselves?
Furthermore I think it's about the vibe, what you exude. In the past I have been told that my eyes were so strong that men daren't really approach me. But at the time I was in a totally different, insecure, which I was hiding by being strong on the outside.
Now I'm open, feel good about myself, so that look in my eyes has changed, and people now do approach me without a problem.
So I think it's a mixture of things. But, as far as I'm concerned, people in general can be intimidated by a tall, good-looking, confident man/woman. And think "Someone that good-looking is never gonna like me!"
And in general small women are being regarded as sweet, cute, feminine, vulnerable etc. So yeah, a bit of a toss at times.
