haha thats 100% for OP here. Perfect.
The iPhone 6 is humongous! I hate it!
Anyway there is the reachability option on the iPhone 6 and 6+

Why is everyone so jacked up??? PPl have the right to not like the 6. I have the 5C and it's just fine. 
If it's already too big to one-hand, then you might as well get the 6 Plus!
In all seriousness though, I've been hearing this from a lot of womenmy wife included. She refuses to upgrade to a bigger phone. I just wrote a thread about it actually. I'm hoping that they at least keep around a "C" model that is 4" so people like my wife can stay happy. For instance, an iPhone 6C in two years. By then her iPhone 5 won't support iOS X.

My wife finds the 6 a bit big as well but that's because she's used to her 5s. The problem with a 6c is not that they couldn't make them but it's the demand for bigger and bigger. Apple should come out with a 6c 6s and a 6+ to cater to everyone. The 6c can be the 6s but smaller.
My 17 yo daughter feels the same way. She's 5'1 with small hands. She was planning on buying 6 (well paying me the NEXT amount each month for it), but felt it was too big for her to use one handed. She's opting for the 5s instead.
The good thing about the current lineup is customers have a choice. Buy what works for you and call it a day....

This forum can be really hostile towards people who complain about anything related to Apple products.
On another note, I'm sorry you don't like the phone. Like others I would recommend buying a 5S or checking out a smaller Android or Windows device. You're going to have trouble finding something close to 3.5" or 4", although the Sony Xperia Z3 has a very small form factor with a larger screen.
I would keep using the iPhone for a couple of days and see if you can adjust. I've found Reachability to be really useful for using the phone with one hand.
An honest response with out looking like the sheople on here lol
I feel the same way as the OP. Pocketability is also a consideration.
I wish Apple still made their top spec phone with a 3.5 to 4" option.

To your buddy?
I had no issues with staying with the iPhone 5, but I need a lot more capacity. Then right before my first eye exam since the 90’s, I went and checked out the phones at the Apple store in Denver. The 6 plus was a no way, not a shock though.
But the 6, I was pleasantly surprised by how I was able to use it one handed although a case is certainly in order, that thing would fly out my hands like a lemon seed, LOL! But the screen…wow, the perfect size for my aging eyes. So I ordered it w/ the leather case for now, will find a more “Trail Worthy” option in a month or so.
But others not liking the size, it’s a big deal, I don’t understand the hate, it’s a valid complaint. So knock off the holier than though crap already….

No one forced you to buy it. You can make your own decisions here.
I recommend sell it, you can probably get more for it that way since they are in high demand still. The go to ebay or amazon and get another 4S or buy a 5S.
