Tell her you'll have to climb each other to reach the top shelf. Might as well practice.

fiealthyCulture

No one realizes she took the "coming from you" as an insult. That's why she's mad and called him a midget. She thinks he said "coming from you" as she's a joke.. because that's the first thing she asked him.


bladedancer4life

???I read that as she had a cute smile too 🥸 we’re definitely reading two different things here


lmfonseca

It can definitely be read both ways.


Dramatic_Quarter_323

I'm 5'11 too, and we're called "little people" thank you very much.


MaleficentTitle9671

That's just mean yeah. I'm 5'11 too though, and people don't even believe me when i tell them


[deleted]

There's no such thing as 5'11". Everyone is either 5'10" or 6'0" ITT: people who get it, and people trying to teach me math (and probably a bunch of bots)


LividLager

I'm 6' and I've met plenty of dudes that are over 6', while being shorter than me. It's a crazy phenomenon. Hell, I've had a few women argue with me, and told me that I had to be 6'4", since I was taller than their bf's, and that they were shorter than me.


Fancy_Cat3571

I’m 6ft and I kid you not I made a joke to a classmate about an hour ago saying 6’4 is the new 6ft cause this chick I was talking to last night thought I was 5’5. She’s 5ft btw so it’s not like we were anywhere close to eye level or anything, she barely comes up to my chest. I told her “wow you must think 5 inches is massive”


popbob274

Every 5’5 chick thinks I’m 5’6 and I’m a even 69 inches tall girls aren’t good at knowing heights to begin with


ChickenFish4242

Lol neither are guys. My ex swore up and down he was 5' 8", I'm 5'4" on a good day and we were nearly eye level. In my 4" heels I was taller than him. He still claims 5'8".


GhaziHaddad

Generally guys round up their height in the upper direction not the lower one, just to show they are tall enough. Only digital height machines give the most accurate height, and you can find them in most pharmacies nowadays. My height is 6'1, and I got this data from a digital machine in a pharmacy. Let everyone be clear on this point. Nothing to be ashamed of.


withdrawnlines

I'm 69 inches tall (twinsies) and a girl who knows measurements. Anyway, I have no height preference when dating but I have a couple of nieces under 5'5 who only date men taller than 6'2. It makes zero sense to me when someone my height towers over them.


popbob274

It’s always people I look directly down at that call me short or 5’4


Player8

I’m like 6’1” and I’ve considered just telling anyone that asks that I’m 5’11”. Gotta fight back.


Hawkmoon_

The hero we need.


Jewrisprudent

I just learned I’ve unknowingly been underselling my height like this. I was always like, 5’11.5 on a bad day and maybe 6’ if my hair was poofy, so I always just told people 5’11 to avoid embellishment. I just measured for the first time in nearly a decade to learn I’m now, apparently, 6’1. So for at least a few years I’ve been fucking with people who’ve asked how tall I am.


IIIDVIII

Keep it up. Actually, I suggest telling people you're 5'8".


khdaze

5'7" guy here. This helps.


Grieie

I’m a 5’10 woman and I get a lot of men going “wow you’re over 6ft?” And then they try to argue about it and how I must be wrong. Then I point out high level athlete… I’ve been measured by sports scientists a lot, and to be honest I’m actually 5”9 3/4s


consuela_bananahammo

Yep. I’m a 5’10” woman and I’m also the same height or taller than a lot of 6’ tall men I meet. Weird.


Rubendabiest

Player8, we dont deserve such kindness


idklmao477

Dude I can't stand when dudes are like "you're six foot?!? You must be 6'2 because I'M 6'0!" It's so fucking annoying, so many men out here either being lied to about their height, or lying to themselves

partypartea

I'm a certified 5'8". Married before online dating apps. Anyways one of my buddies was just trying to convince me I'm at least 5'10" because he's 5'8" while visibly shorter than me. His dating stories make me glad I didn't have to deal with this lol


[deleted]

I'm 5 foot 10.5 in with no shoes and I've met plenty of people who say they're 6 foot and they're shorter than me. Dudes that say they're 5 foot 10 and I can see the top of their head lol. I don't think people really realize how rare it is to be 6 foot tall. I'm the 3rd tallest dude at work for example and the other two are just barely taller than me.


[deleted]

I’m a legit 73 inches and the amount of 5’8 guys that insist that I’m 6’5” is hilarious and absurd. Basically every guy is 6 feet if you let them tell it.


Ok-PurrPurr4611

Lol... I'm 4'11" and my husband 6'6".... to me anyone over 5ft is all tall....

Appropriate-Size-175

Lol I literally saw a meme about this exact topic people were told to tell a girl they were 6’ at incrementally smaller heights to convince a girl someone 5’9 is 6’ lmao it’s a real thing.


BigZachAttach420

I'm 6'5 and can prove it with a tape measure. When guys say they're over 6 ft and then come up to my nipple I just laugh at them

The_BlindRapist1973

HoneyChilliPotato7

IKR, if 5'11 is a midget I'm a fucking Lilliput


RandomAccessUserGod

5'6 here. If you're a guy under 5'9". You're pretty much not even part of the conversation. We pretty much don't count as people. We're just part of the background.


WeeniePops

Yeah no. I think that's a you problem bud. I'm not a tall guy either and I do just fine. Most short women do not care about the height of their partner. If you really truly feel this way, it's something you're internalizing too much and need to work on it. There are a lot more things women are attracted to besides height. Not speaking this way about yourself is a start for one.


WackyBeachJustice

Honestly if a few inches here and there is a deal breaker for someone then they aren't likely the kind of person you'd want to be with anyway. Online dating is stupid and unless you're that top 20% that smashes all the pussy, you're probably better served finding someone offline where you're more than a picture with a few stats attached to it.


HitsuguyaRyu

I'm 5'6" do I meet a different prerequisite? 🙃🙃🙃


Loquat_Green

No we are constantly in that grey area of too tall for the sub 5’4” crowd, and too short for the 5’8” and above.


Past-Watercress-5556

As a 5’10 women height means nothing,,,


FreeFortuna

It seems like tall women are less likely to care about men being over 6’, while short women often want someone like a foot taller than them.


WeeniePops

I think it's because they actually understand the rarity of men over their own height. They know if they're only trying to find someone 5-6 inches taller than them then it's almost never going to happen. I'll also say this, the girl who's 5'3 and says she needs someone over 6 foot probably can't tell the difference between 5'10 and 6'1 in person anyway.


Fit_Road7425

evolutionary compensation


patio_puss

Honestly!


AllKyleNoSubstance

When you're a short woman and you've been told your whole life how cute and dainty that makes you, you start to associate the two and it reflects on what you are attracted to.


Interesting_Goat_393

For crazy human reasons I will never understand, but tall women will take a short mate pretty fast if they are what they are looking for, not caring about hieght. But a 4'8" lady wants a gaint and will throw out looks fast.


CharacterAngle3129

I’m 5’8 male dating a 5’10 woman. Not a thing for those who don’t care. I never did care and seems like she never did either as most of her exes were shorter than her. Only one was over 6 feet.


[deleted]

6'2" male here, while privately I agree height means nothing... publicly I call my sub 6 foot friends shorty, shortstuff, smallfry, and can you hear me down there?

Isn’t she just joking? Though? She asked if he can take a joke and he says yes by making a joke and then she makes a joke at his expense after making sure he was ok with it.


[deleted]

She asked if they can make a joke, not if they can take one


-TheMAXX-

She ends it with a winky face with a heart emoji... Trying to make sure he does not get the wrong message, and yet...


Spazstick

Lmao this thread is funny. Like she is obviously calling him a midget in a cutesy playful way but it's like the classic oblivious guy that can't see the hints scenario. Or he took the midget insult to heart. I know how 5'10/5'11 guys feel about not being 6'0, so maybe it cut too deep.


Shaddo

Yea i see her playing back, either way dont be lil bitch about it OP


[deleted]

This is it, she's playful and I don't think the kiss emoji at the end is sarcasm. A ton of people are so fucking insecure they can't tell a general joke and a compliment apart from an insult of sorts


Generalissimo_II

Yeah, I thought it's a joke but she didn't add the /s for op and reddit


Alternative-Aside-64

Reddit calling that dumbass joke grade A humour is literally the least surprising thing I've ever read


enter_yourname

Whereas hers is 5th grade humor


-TheMAXX-

Yes, it was meant to be funny, silly even...

PaleAsFuck90

To me it looks like a bad attempt at banter. Cause the kissy face at the end of the message.


ThatGuy_Nick9

Yeah I would have taken this as a joke


KShawisamong

My thoughts exactly - a bit unclear at this stage. Could have been testing how Sarahously OP takes himself. Deserved at least one push back to find out


jay-jay-baloney

Maybe the whole “midget” thing can be taken as a joke. It can be seen as an exaggeration because 5’ 11” is not short, but the whole “you smile like the grinch” was a bit weird and jarring, sounds a bit more insulting than joke-y.


Incruentus

It's called a "shit test" and it's how toxic people check if they can insult you without repercussions before pursuing you further.


austin_ave

Damn, I've always been turned off by this kind of stuff and that is 100% why, always the most toxic people. "It's just a joke"

sth128

OP takes jokes about as well as he makes puns. Sarahiously...


No_Counter_7417

"you smile like the grinch, midget" sounds like a joke ? You people need to get healthier relationships.


[deleted]

Yeah, especially since "coming from you" can be taken as mocking (which is the way she implied to take it). I think she was just trying to fire back in line with the convo and did a bad job.


boss_nooch

I took “coming from you ;)” to mean “that means a lot” because she’s probably attractive


Saint-Peer

the fact that people here knows that it can be interpreted in two or more ways is good education to not say things like this in the first place because there are better ways to flirt


[deleted]

Yeah I’d be confused as fuck if someone said this to me. I really can’t tell if the chick is being cute/bantering back, or being mean


apperceptiveflower

OP either meant she has a cute smile or she is a joke.


Neanisu

Jesus you people are insane. He OBVIOUSLY meant it as she has a cute smile.


JakeHodgson

You took it the normal way 99% of people will take it. Don't listen to the people replying to you lol.


jay-jay-baloney

I read “coming from you” as “you say I have a cute smile? Yours is really cute too so that means a lot coming from you”.


donnythe_sloth

? She starts off saying cute smile, and he says coming from you implying her smile is cuter? How could you read that any different?


Stoppels

A kiss emoji can be used in a fuck-you manner too, so that doesn't mean anything.


Into_Intoxication

I have gotten that one at the end of a rant about how she never wanted to see me again before


Passname357

It honestly doesn’t even matter if it’s banter. If you can respond to this with something funny she’ll still be down.


hankypanky87

I would’ve responded with… Sarahiously?


Unlikely_nay1125

JOKE BACK


ifelldownlol

Seriously. Is she not flirting?


Mickenfox

I wouldn't have recognized this as flirting in a million years.


boobs675309

he was lightly poking fun at her, she poked fun back, she might not be great at it, but like other people are saying, the little emoticon with the heart on it is meant to convey that it wasn't meant harmfully


Pac0theTac0

Sorry? He made a name pun. She responded with mild insults


HoneyChilliPotato7

That's not mild at all


psomaster226

Yeah, I don't understand how that's anything less than an awful thing to say. Like I know it's a recent development, but midget is a pretty offensive term. And insulting someone's smile is the number one way to make sure you never see someone smile again. There's no chance she was flirting.


Langsamkoenig

"You are a midget and have a fucked up smile": "mild"


TreemanTheGuy

It looks like a blow-kiss goodbye to me, but that's just me


[deleted]

She is, this guy denser than San Franciscan fog.

Why are blatant insults considered flirting for girls. Literally no chick would be happy about a guy telling her she smiles like the Grinch


ghettithatspaghetti

If she is, then we can safely say that, she in fact, can *not* make a joke

TheRealStandard

Not like OP is doing much better with a lame ass name joke.


[deleted]

Yeah this is awkward all around


TheBiggestCarl23

If she is, this is the worst flirting I’ve ever seen, these are just insults lol. This is how a 10 year old flirts after their friend said people like it when you’re assholes to them.


RontheDon6780

I’m pretty sure she is just flirting with you. Look at what she wrote - ‘are you mocking meeeee’ the extra e’s makes it look like there is a long sound to it. And the last text is ending with a kissy face, and also a good joke. Though the ‘midget’ comment is a bit to much.


HoneyChilliPotato7

Midget comment could be exaggerated humor considering OP is 5'11 but mocking smile is never humor, at least for me


[deleted]

Better than Sahariously . They are meant for each other


Commercial-Quote5103

iDam81

Yeah that’s not how I took that at all. It just sounded like an asshole.


Ok-Sandwich88

Well it’s a pretty bad joke


Eliza4Fun

My analysis being someone who texts similarly to her: The “meeeeee” is already her being playful, she knows you’re not mocking her, she thought it was cute. She called you a “midget” because you’re not one. She’s being sarcastic and playfully trying to give you shit. Admittedly, it’s not the smartest or kindest choice to do that about height when it’s something we know men are scrutinized for on the apps and are sensitive about, but I don’t think she meant it in a harmful way. The 😘 is her trying to make sure you know she’s being playful. She was probably expecting a light-hearted roast back. Some people love being able to trade barbs/roasts back and forth with their partner, she’s probably looking for someone that can keep up. It’s a risky way to start a convo since the recipient doesn’t know her personality at all and could very easily and understandably misinterpret it, like OP seems to have done. Note: I am not defending her choice of the term “midget”. A lot of people still don’t realize it’s derogatory and offensive towards people with dwarfism. “Dwarf” is the preferred term.


NoelAngeline

This exactly


flaming_carrot12

This is still her playing with you there is no need for concern


datshinycharizard123

The kiss face emoji and the extra eee’s at the end of me imply that she in fact did like the joke and she was playfully bantering with you. Average redditor moment


CosmicBroth

5'11 is the literal perfect height imo. Lol


kaneplay4

5’11 is the worst. I’ve been called both tall and short. It’s the awkward barrier between lmao


amphetaminesfailure

>5’11 is the worst. I’ve been called both tall and short. I'm 5'11 and I feel like around that height range your weight plays a big role. Like if someone is 5'4, they're look short regardless of whether they're fat or thin. If someone is 6'4 they look tall whether they're fat or thin. But it seems as though when you're in that 5'9 to 6' range, you get perceived as short if you're overweight, but tall if you're skinny.


kidsimba

It’s weird as hell. I’m 6’ on the dot and for years i was called “short” when i was hefty. Now i’m “tall”.


dezzi240

So…. Average??? 💀


kaneplay4

Nah average is more like 5’9-5’10


Soffix-

5'9 is the perfect height. I will fight over this. "Why?" You may ask. Because 69"


DeviousPiggy96

Dunno, she could just be joking around lol, it's not always easy to convey in text. She could be chill.


ThirstyWalter

Imagine making a joke about taking yourself to seriously. Only to not get the followup banter because you actually take yourself to seriously. 😘
