I am 5' 9". I love every bit of my height and would never trade. I have nine sisters and we are all in the same height range. I've never met a man who did not like the height and what's up with all the short guys liking the tall women? Its almost as if they have something to prove. Maybe they want to crawl up my legs or something.. dont' know and if there is a short guy in the room, I can bet money he will beeline it to me especially if I am wearing heels. I had a fantasy once about being with a really short guy... hmmm... that's another subject. When I was single and dating, everyone commented on the long legs and the height.
In answer to your question. YES, they will definitely approach you. If they do not, it's because they are nervous. Very few do not like tall women but maybe cause its just their personal taste. So put on those sexy heels, stand straight and tall and shake what your mamma gave you when you walk.
