Is this the same or not?

You know sometimes people with AS don't like being around large crowds etc...?

Well the thing is I am a fairly average height man at 5'10 and when I am around a large crowd of tall people over 6ft I dislike it and it makes me feel uncomftable and it really annoys me to the point where I get a little pissed off and distracted.

I don't always like large crowds in the sense that if there really tall it annoys me becasue I feel inferior and uncomftable. If I was 6'2 there would be no problems because I would always feel tall and i would not mind large crowds.

I sometimes have to talk to guys that are over 6'1 or 6'3 and having to look up at them when i speak annoys me because it makes me feel inferior and stresses me out.

In a way my social awkwardness can be caused by my height becasue when i see a few guys that are 6ft+ it makes me feel intimidated and and don't give eye contact becasue i am ashamed of my height. My height has even casued me many issues with my confidence as well and has had me less outgoing.

When I am enviorments where I might feel tall I feel a lot more comftable but at 5'10 there are times when i am in places where quite a lot of people will be taller than me.
Is that a symptom of AS or just a guy that wishes he was taller?

You're not alone. I'm 6 feet tall and I hate large crowds.

Its not that I hate large crowds becaue I really have no problem. Its just when I am around a lot of tall people it makes me feel annoyed and nervous.

If I was 6'2 like I said there would be no issues.

Sorry LOL

Height isn't everything.

You know the short people how they are proud of their height, you are not short, but you should be proud of your height. I am 5'7", so I am medium for a girl, but I try not to be bugged when I stand next to tall girls. I just recognize that this is the lot i was dealt in the gene department, and i can either sulk about it, or I can feel good about myself. (now my weight, that is a different problem).
