    For me, there is a "too tall", and 6'5" is in it. It takes me a while to feel comfortable around people that tall, they just feel very imposing initially. And since this fictitious dude doesn't seem to have anything else appealing to make me want to stick around.....

    okay lets raise the stakes:

    he's only 6'2, but he's built like henry cavill when he played superman.
    but now he also doesn't have his own car and really needs to borrow yours for a minute.

    short man is also now built like danny devito, but he's really great with kids and animals.

    i’d go for the short guy in either one of those storylines in a heartbeat if he had confidence and wasnt insecure about it, which i know isnt fair qualifier bc maybe he made to feel insecure idk

    okay:

    short man now has short man syndrome, but he recognizes its a flaw and is working on it (he's 40)

    tall guy doesn't know how to spell syndrome.

    idk it seems like he’d spend the entire time accusing me of crushing on tall guys and if he was serious about getting over it he’d work on it on his own *kitten* before getting into someone’s life like that

    well its either those two, or waiting for a knight in shining armor.
    not a whole lot of those left though, if there ever were any to begin with.

    haha now I am feeling like such a wierdo, but yeah, super muscly dudes are in a similar territory to overly tall dudes :D

    not sure what my "dream guy" looks like. I seem to go for just average looking people.

    Why choose? Short guy for a relationship, tall guy as a side piece... until I get to the point that I'm not even attracted to him anymore because I can't possibly respect him. It won't take too long.

    tbh ^ this was the response i was actually curious if anybody would own up to :D

    To clarify - I would tell both of them their place and make my intentions with each clear. I'm going to go with radical honesty.

    Just as long as you earn that dwindling respect. Really lean into the role.

    With dwindling respect comes dwindling expectations.

    I was born for this.

    I once broke down a conversation between a womanz and myself and took each thought and sentence logically and in linear sequence.

    After about 90 seconds, she realized how fragmented and void of logic her thoughts and statements really were.

    The thing is, she didn't care.

    So it goes......

    Or low expectations are preexisting. When you can't even meet those...

    Apparently, we've both been trained/desensitized well. This was covered later in the thread.

    It is a cruel moot point.

    If those are my only two choices I'll take option 3: a convent. And I'm not even Catholic.

    I don't care about "very well off", I'm self-sufficient financially, but I have zero tolerance for parasites.

    I had to google Danny Devito's height. He's 4'10. I'm 5'9. This is unwieldy.

    eta: the real SO is 6'9

    Okay anyone who’s been in ANY kind of relationship, here’s the real question we need answered:

    What do you want for dinner?
