Let me preface by saying that I'm 6'6". Wherever I go, I am always approached by woman telling me how tall I am, etc, etc. Many of these girls that say this are relatively attractive, and I would like to know any input you guys have onto what I should respond to this by? I usually do the basic thanks or just blow them off. Lately, I have been lying and saying that I'm 5'8" and they're just seeing me wrong (gay **** like that). Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Attractive girl: Wow, you are really tall!
You: Hi shorty.
You: Hi shorty.

With all due respect, you are overthinking this. A chick that approaches you and calls you tall is quite attracted to you. You need very little game at that point.Rock22 said:
Just shoot the sh$t with her and get the number. What you talk about is not important at that point.
If you are at a bar or club, include kino with your fluff talk, include some playful joking (optional), and go for the pull.
If you feel you must use a c&f response, try this:
HB: You're tall.
Tallguy: Must be the shirt.
Tallguy: Do you think this shirt makes me look tall lol? (Credit: Mystery)

Don't you know that if a woman is attracted to you initially, there is very little you can do wrong?
Consider yourself blessed.
Case closed.

Yes I'm 6'5" and whenever a girl says "you are tall" it's basically a pick-up line. Though sometimes you do wonder what the heck to say in reply. Then you remember - as nismo-4 noted - it doesn't matter what you say if they are attracted to you - it's tone of voice and body language that matter most.
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Here is my opinion
If you want to get laid with those girls that are approaching you, that would be easy for you. You can take it to the next level easily.
Now are you trying to find a gf or true love. Why did you posted this question

Actually try this instead of the gay shirt line:
HB: You're tall.
Tallguy: Nah, I'm only 5 foot 18 lol.
She'll giggle for two reasons:
1. She's already attracted to you so anything you say is funny.
2. Chicks can't do unit conversions lol.
But either way, "game" is not really necessary. You have a huge advantage that is your golden ticket.
