Ladies, would you date someone shorter than you?

YaBoiMUGS

Ok, so my height has worked against me on several occasions. I never pursue a woman taller than 5'6" because of my height. I assume shorter guys are not on their radar, plus short girls make me feel taller.

So i ask, am I wrong to assume that, would you date someone shorter than you?

HellsKells

Are you attracted to women taller than you?

ETA: And no, I don't typically go for shorter guys, but I wouldn't rule it out completely.

Oh I have been before, but for reasons already mentioned, I just never acted on it.

yes...altho i prefer them taller than me, but a sweet and sexy guy at 4'11..i'd giv it a shot.

I am barely 5'4" and when I was dating I dated someone who was 5'5" once. His height didn't bother me. The fact that he was kind of crazy did though.

My ex SIL was madly in love with my brother who is only 5'6" and she was 5'9". She thought he was the sexiest man ever.

i'm 5'6" and was rejected solely on my height before.

seems like an arbitrary thing to judge someone by, and i was certainly angry about it at the time - but i guess people are attracted to what they are attracted to. I dated a woman for a while who was 5'10".

I ended up marrying a woman who is 5'2" -- but her "type" used to be someone taller than me.

How tall are you?
Also I think it's about confidence. If a tall woman makes you feel inadequate, says more about you to be honest.

Italian_Buju

I actually always preferred someone shorter than myself.

AJ_Pete

I do right now. I'm 5'8, he's 5'4. For me, it's all about personality. He owns who he is and that is SO sexy.

hpoowalker

I love guys that are shorter than me... I do find that shorter guys are more hesitant to approach me so I have to be more flirtatious with them. I am 5'8" so it does limit who approaches me...

JanetLM73

I'm 5'6", my husband is 5'6-1/2" when I have any type of heal on I'm taller then him...doesn't bug me...he has big muscles :bigsmile:

stephanne82

My husband and I are the same height...does that count?

cjaharmon

Been with my man for 8 years and he's only 5'8 I am 5'9. And yes I still wear heals and we enjoy life!

TheRoadDog

I'm only 5'10". Back in the 70's I briefly dated a gal that was 6'4" . When I say briefly, I mean 1romantic date. Was awkward kissing her good night. Had to stand on the front step of her parents' house.

Didn't work out romantically, but we are still best friends 40 years later.

VanessaGS

I'm 5'-0 and I've always dated guys taller than me. But at my height everyone is taller than me, but I have dated guys around 5'-6". My current boyfriend is 5'-10"

Gertie_Brinks

My partner is about an inch shorter (maybe a bit more) than I am and I am 5' 4". The funny thing is that I didn't realize he was shorter than I was for quite a long time (we've been together 4 years).

I guess it's because I look up to him in so many more ways than just actual inches.

songbyrdsweet

I'm only 5'0, so if a guy were shorter than me, I probably wouldn't date him. That being said, I don't really care about height if the guy is 5'0 or taller hah

focus4fitness

I do right now. I'm 5'8, he's 5'4. For me, it's all about personality. He owns who he is and that is SO sexy.

That really is sexy.

MileyClimb

Yes because I don't go by a guys height but rather his personality whether he has a good heart.

mbajrami

I'm 5'8 and my bf of 2 years is about 5'5 or 5'6. I don't really care about height. I've dated shorter, same height, taller...in MY opinion it's pretty shallow to judge someone's date-ability based on their height. There are so many more important things.

ChubbyStudent25

I won't date anyone shorter than about 5'8". I am 5' tall. I see lots of couples where the girl is taller so everyone is different. If you see someone tall that you like than go for it you never know she might like shorter guys.

LaMujerMasBonitaDelMundo

My bf is exactly the same height as mine. We're both 5'2" & he's White (who is supposed to be very tall) while I'm your average Hispanic. But we're very much in love

scapez

I have in the past...once. I'm 5'7" and he was 5'2". Though the height difference had no impact on the relationship ultimately failing, my personal preference is someone at least my height...and I say this realizing that height doesn't make the man. It's just my preference.

Natashaa1991

hell yeah!!!
my boyfriend is the smartest and the funniest person i know, he is 1 cm shorter than me when im in flats (and i love wearing heels!!) but who the f**** cares?!

SmartAlec03211988

I'm five feet even... I have no choice but to date taller, LOL.

WhiteCoc0

I am a tall girl. I have never had issues with dating a shorter guy! Just as long as they are fit and good looking, height isnt an issue, unless they arent confident. My significant other is the same height, but when I wear heels, I am much taller. No issues.

luvp1nk

Honestly, I am attracted to tall men, 6 feet and up. I have never dated someone shorter than me because I am only 5 feet tall so it would be really difficult for me. I think it would make me uncomfortable to date someone my height or shorter because I am so short to begin with.

Ditto...

Emancipated_Tai

I'm 5ft, so I would never date anyone shorter than me :laugh:

I like my guys 6ft and taller!

lizzybethclaire

I'm 6'1 and my hubby is 5'10. So I guess I do

BrownEyedSister

I have and I am! He swears he is 5'7" but since I am 5'5" and I'm taller than him I know better. :blushing:

I actually prefer shorter guys in general - that is as long as they are stocky/husky/chubby. Mmmmm....
