Anyone else when short guys overestimate height?

[Calliber]

I've had different situations where guys meet me on an app and say they are 5'6 or 5'8 and turn out to be shorter. Some of them are surprised and it turns them on.

I can pick them up often and hold them.

I have seen lots of guys lie about their heights. It's always to claim they're taller than they actually are.

I knew this guy who says he is 5'10 and he is actually 6’3 so when he meets up with 5'10 guys he makes them rethink their height

He does that on purpose?

It's kinda hot to make someone think they're shorter.

There’s a guy on Tik Tok that asks guys how tall they are then measures them to see if they’re lying. It always amazes me how many guys claim to be 6’ but are only 5’9”

I don't understand how a 5'9 guy thinks he can get away with lying about being 6'. A 5'11 guy could get away with it (or a 6'10 guy could get away with lying about being 7'). But 5'9 is just so short it doesn't work.

5'9 men need to accept that they are short.

Do you tell people you're 7 foot lol

I find it easier to gauge a guys height if it is close to mine, but harder when the difference from my height is large.
