Am I to tall?

Question

I am currently 12 yrs old and am 5'9. My shoe size is 9 1/2' in mens, I'm in 6th grade. I want to be in the NBA when i grow up, all my friends are normal sized for a 6th grader. The tallest one is 5'2, do you think girls will still like me? The point is that I really wanna know if I'm gonna be the next tallest man in the world.

Answer 1

i was always really tall as a kid, it was always the first thing people commented on. i stopped growing when i was 13, im female and 5ft 10. at ur age i guess i was ur height. u may be a fast developer, you may get all your growing done early. if your family are tall its a good indication you will be. i know plenty of guys around 6ft 3, thats 6 inches taller than you are now, and no one comments (much). i very much doubt you will be freakishly tall, believe me, i worried about it to no avail. nothing you can do about your height, its all in the genes and decided at conception. best of luck x

Answer 2

Tallest man in the world? Unlikely. There are a few giants out there. But it does sound like you're going to have a good chance of realizing your NBA dream. It's hard to predict exactly how tall someone is going to be, because growth spurts come at different times. Most important thing is to carry whatever height you have well - standing tall and not slouching - and to take good care of yourself, especially during your growing years. That means good food (lots of fruit adn vegies and minimal junk stuff) and lots of sleep.
Will girls stlll like you? If you're a nice guy, it doesn't matter if you're 5'1" or 6;10" tall. Personality matters more than height.

Answer 3

I know a guy who was 6 feet tall in the 7th grade, so chill. Everyone else will catch up to you soon enough. And i doubt you'll be the next tallest man in the world.
And most girls i know [myself included] like tall guys. You'll do well in sports too, just remember to practice.

Answer 4

nicely, you're approximately 0.5-a-foot taller than common, that's particularly tall. i'm unsure what you advise by ability of "too tall"? women love tall adult men, and in a woman's eyes, the taller the greater valuable, so which you're by no ability too tall to get the girls. regardless of the undeniable fact that, being too tall would reason well-being issues, yet i think of that as long as you're actually not over 7'0, you're able to be positive. in case you joined the NBA, you does no longer be everywhere on the component of being the tallest participant.

Answer 5

Tallest in the world...... maybe not. But maybe so. To be in the nba you gotta be some what tall. Girls will always like you. You can never ever be too tall

Answer 6

Wow you are tall. As far as the girls liking tall guys might I say i like tall men. My husband is 6'2". I never did like dating a guy shorter than me. It would be cool if you were the next tallest man. I could say "Hey I gave advice to that man when he was younger!!"

Answer 7

You're not going to be the tallest man in the world (unless there is something genetically wrong with you). In a few more years all your classmates will catch up to you.
When you get old enough to be involoved with girls... they will love the tallness.

Answer 8

You are the height that you are genetically programmed to be a your age. Your final height will also be what it is genetically programmed to be.

As to whether the girls will like you, well that's not about physical size, in any aspect. That's about the size of your heart, your spirit, your sense of humour, your compassion and your ability to treat any girl/woman with respect at all times. Every girl and even more important, every woman, will have their own specific list, but each list will include those qualities.

Answer 9

you sure are tall but not the tallest man in the world! actually you might end up being the tallest man in the world!

Answer 10

It's possible. You will probably make it into the NBA if you practice at basketball enough. I don't know about the girls where you are, but where I am, most of the girls like tall guys.
