[2ndround]

198 is in nba territory.

That's my actual height - with sneakers/trainers I'm smack on 200cm.

I haven't checked and I could be wrong, but I believe It's an average height for NBA players.

Not quite as tall as you and didn't hear it before, could have been a reason for a rejection at some point and I never got the feedback.
I remember during studies, a friend of a girl I was seeing, said to her said that I am too tall but kind of as a joke.

Plenty of short girls go crazy for really tall guys. 170 is my max height for a girl, then it starts to get too tall.
Know what you mean though and had the same thoughts in the past but learnt to accept the tallness.

I've forgotten what It's like to be short as a kid, so as an adult, I don't know any different.

I see my height as being normal.

Trust me it's better being too tall than too short.
Met and heard from so many women that short guys or shorter guys than them are no goes.

Agreed.

Yea, a few times I got almost comment as I am not far off the 200cm.
I think that you are right, it is not that tall for nba, however they are superfreak athletes so it goes without saying.

The only issue in a bar you can have particularly being a tall young man is having shorter guys pick a figh to "prove a point".
