i would probably change my personality b/cos when i grew up people were always like to me "omg you are so hot/pretty/cute/beautiful/etc" because when i was young that was all that mattered to me so i never worked on stuff like my personality or anything in school b/cos i just got by with my looks and now that i dont go to school anymore i realize that looks dont matter outside of that world and i have nothing on the inside but a **** personality
If you could change one thing about yourself...

Good!It does matter! You made me feel better about my height
Perks: Easier to dunk in Basket Ball.
(haha I'm just kidding)
Honestly, I don't think there's such a thing as "too tall" for a woman - I'd probably feel a bit uncomfortable at first - but that would be due to my own insecurities. Most gals would never date a guy my height, so I'd be worried that a taller gal would feel the same way - especially since her height would make me seem even shorter.
Basically: I don't care so long as they don't care lol.
And I believe there are perks to being a taller woman - they just might not feel like positive things because you're more focused on the negative.
For example; shorter women are more likely to be patronized. They're also a bigger target for harassment, because they're smaller and typically "weaker" than taller women.
Well, for you too! I'm not sure if there is a such thing as a guy being too tall for some women/girls, but I could see you scoring with all of the pretty shorter cute dressing girls! But I do understand you. I had a friend who was very self conscious about his height too. We just need to find someone like you, someone who isn't bothered by height so much. They're rare... They're out there... somewhere 
Being more self confident and healthier...
I manage to get sick like at least once a month and have awful migraine... It would also be cool to get rid of my Hashimoto Thyreoidits.
And better eyes so I don't need contactlinses or glasses (don't wear them anyway) to see something that's like four meters away.

I would change my height and shoulder width, I'd like both to be a bit smaller. I'd also like nicer boobs 
but I'm stuck with what I've got, so whatever.
I would also change my anxiety in certain situations, my laziness, terrible work ethic and procrastination habits, and my shyness.

Actually, from what I've witnessed, women on the shorter end of the height spectrum are the most picky, with average height being 2nd most picky, and taller women being the least picky.
I heard someone say that it's because shorter-to-average height women are more "desirable" for a lot of men, so shorter-to-average women are used to being able to get taller guys - they're spoiled, basically.
Taller women on the other hand know that if they're too picky with the height of the guys they date, they won't have a lot of options (and perhaps they know what it's like to be dismissed due to their height, and know personally that it doesn't really matter), so they're more open to dating men shorter than them. And I agree with both theories.
But at least the men who refuse to date taller women make it obvious that they aren't the kind of person you'd wanna date, anyway.
Guys who're caught up on women's height are probably also the same kind of guys who are controlling, and potentially abusive. (Because again, shorter women are typically weaker than taller women. Therefore taller women are harder for them to control)Actually, from what I've witnessed, women on the shorter end of the height spectrum are the most picky, with average height being 2nd most picky, and taller women being the least picky.

Ooooh... That actually makes a lot of sense. And I agree, I'm not too picky myself because I know there aren't too many options either haha. Now I feel bad for you
because that means what's already hard for me, is even harder for you! Never looked at it that way with the possibility of shorter women knowing that they're most likely more desireable. Wow... it really makes sense!

Ahh I wouldn't say I have it harder.
Throw sexism into the mix and I'd say that taller women probably have it worse. (Because I'm sure most of the men who refuse to date taller women are doing so for sexist reasons)With shorter guys, I think the problem is mostly misconceptions and just plain shallowness.. I mean, whenever I've heard a woman explain why she wants a taller guy, the reason is almost always "I want to feel protected". And my question is always: "From what?"
Yeah, a taller man is more likely to "win" in hand to hand combat against a shorter guy - but how often does that happen in real life?
Even if some tall guy went up to a woman and tried to hurt her, I doubt he'd do so in broad daylight. Most attackers attack at night, and when you're alone. You're pretty much safe so long as it's daytime and you're with someone (it doesn't matter what that persons height or gender is, either - you're unlikely to be attacked because it's difficult for anyone to handle more than one person. Taking on two is risky, because one could get away and call for help)
They're also more likely to have a knife and/or gun on them, which makes height even less relevant. After all - not even the tallest, beefiest man could survive a bullet to the head. (unless hes Superman, I guess)
The other reason I hear is "It just looks awkward". Which sounds really petty, but what can you do.

Longer or shorter?
If longer, I have plenty of hair to spare.
I'm too lazy/cheap to get my hair cut and haven't done so in years, so mine's grown down to my butt now lol.

Aw, don't say that. You could cheat and say that the one thing you could change is the fact that you can only change one thing. That way you can change more than one.

I'd love to change my teeth, too.. I had bad hygiene for a long time, so now my teeth are crooked and full of holes.
Sure, I'm the one to blame for that, but still. lol

I'd like to be more confident- I'd like to be able to walk into a shop and look the person at the till in the eye and chat with them confidently, I'd like to go into a cafe and be able to order a drink without stumbling over the sentence "pot of tea for one, please.", I'd like to be able to say hello back to the nice old people I passed while walking my dog... I could go on forever about this

what if its like genies and you cant change for more changes
I guess I could "id like to change the fact that I dont have an infinite amount of wishes I could make always" and just wish for changes
the easy route is still more appealing even if I could make my life perfect with some time and, effort, listing off wishes to make and maki ng sure they all have positive effects seems too tedious esp when an easier change is right there that only takes one change and prob doesnt ljke, drain the worlds magic supply as badly as theother would

What if someone uses their "wish" to bring you back, though?
Then your wish was wasted, because you already used your one wish.Similar threads
