    This is my one shallow thing... I just can't get past it. I am 5ft6 and I like a guy to be at least 5ft11. I know it's awful but i just can't help it

    I'm personally more atrracted to tall guys......my ex was 6'5 (I'm 5'9) But I honestly don't think height should have anything to do with it. Unless it's extremely drastic....there's this guy I know that likes me and he's only 5'. I think that's pushing it haha

    I think there's something about tall guys that even if they are not THAT attractive, their tallness makes them more attractive. ;)

    That being said- I am 6 feet tall so naturally I am only attracted to guys taller than me. But I've dated guys an inch shorter than me and seen no problem with it, although the one guy I dated that was shorter than me was also a total dbag!!!!

    My boyfriend of 4 years is almost 6'10 (yep- not an exaggeration!). I always joke that if we have a son, NBA talent scouts will be waiting outside the delivery room to sign our baby to a contract. I think its purely biological for a woman to be attracted to a man taller than her, but you aren't weird for liking a shorter guy!

    I couldn't :indifferent:
    I'm 5'10 and ahh I can't. Even 6' is too short for me. Shallow as it sounds... I feel it *looks* better when the guy is bigger and taller.
    Just my personal opinion. A great guy is a great guy so height shouldnt really matter but yaaaa he'd have to be at least 6'1-6'5 for me lol

    Im 6ft and used to have a rule that I wouldn't date anyone unless they were taller than me with heels on and a rugby player... admittedly this cut down my choice rather a lot!

    Then I met my current OH, him being shorter than me by about 2 inches and a football player it wasn't exactly love at first sight. Buut then we went on a date and it was the best thing that ever happened to me :-). Hight only matters if you make it matter, my biggest issue was that I felt 'masculine' around shorter men but funnily enough this has not once crossed my mind since we have been together. *Get the sick buckets out*


    Anyway I guess what I am trying to say is if you like him go for it, he might just be the perfect man for you!

    Oh and no one else notices the height difference... it only becomes obvious to others when we make a joke out of it!

    I'm surprised no one has reported it and got it deleted yet. Seems every time I piss off a feminazi...my posts get removed.

    And I mean that in the kindest possible manner.

    Just wait for it. Lol.

    I have friends in exactly the same boat as you. She accepted that she has given up her heals and he puts up with a little teasing, but for the most part no one will ever notice an inch's difference between you. If he were 6 inches shorter, or even 3 shorter I would understand the problem, but its only 1. Also, if an inch were really a deal breaker to you then you wouldn't be asking for advice here.. you would have said no already. I think you like him but you're worried about what other people will think. Don't. Live your life for you.

    I wasnt looking for advice.

    I was just seeing other ppls outlooks.

    I dont care what other people think.
    Never have.

    I dated a guy who was the same height as me and I just did not feel sexy when I was with him. I felt like an Amazon Giantess and it was a turn off. Not his fault, but doesn't work for me.


    i feel you there maybe it was bc i was bigger built then he was... i'm 5'8 my husbands 6'5 so i love it nothing against short guys how they treat you is the most inportnant but i like to feel danity in a guys presence....

    i used to think pretty narrowly about height. i'm 5'7" and my man is 5'9". yes, he's taller, but just slightly. i used to love tall guys and when i met my bf, i even told him that i preferred tall guys. i was just being too narrow and close-minded. height, in the end, shouldn't matter.

    No wonder I'm single. Based on the responses here it'll take a miracle since as a 5'0" (not a typo) guy I'm almost certain to be shorter than everyone.

    Not like my personality or other physical attributes could be worth anything. It's all about my height. *grumble*
