    I also find it odd that it is okay for women to completely refuse short men but if a man refused to date brunettes he'd be considered shallow.

    It's shallow for women too but it is what it is. I would never have dated a woman taller/more muscular than I was.......for the record. We are all shallow to varying degrees.

    I am almost six feet tall, and I have never dated anyone taller than me. The shortest I have dated was like 5'2'' (but a girl so different social stigma with that) and currently my bf is about 5'4''. I just like being taller. It doesn't work for everyone. You *have* to be attracted to the person you date on some level, so everyone in the world is just a little bit shallow. Let's face it, you wouldn't date someone you had NO interest in whatsoever just to prove a point? A little bit of shallowness is totally ok, what jacwhite said.

    I don't think they're the same. There are MANY MEN who won't date women who are taller than them. That's comparable.

    Would not have a problem dating a taller girl, but so far i have yet to find one.

    Also if my S.O could fill out my clothes, i would probably not date her anymore.

    At one point, my fiance's jeans were too small in the waist for me. Yes, that bothered me.

    But he's 6' 5" so if he tried to wear my clothes he would be wearing capris and crop-tops (normal sizes).

    The circumstances of a a dude actually fitting into my clothes.. Would never happen. I like tall men. If it's a chick then I don't care. :smile:

    If he could fit in my clothes that would be great! That would mean he's dropped some weight. :D

    I'm not trying to chastise women who won't date shorter smaller men, but I guess maybe open their minds a little. In all seriousness, if I weren't drunk when I met my husband I would have never consider him because he's a smaller guy. I would have completely missed out a really great guy (been together 10 years now) due to my own hang-ups. There are a lot of great guys out there short or tall. It's a shame to limit yourself.

    Now I'm 5'9" and so is my husband so really it's not that big of a deal, however I did work-in on bench with a dude who was 5'3" and benching 210. I totally would of hit that had I been single. :love:

    I weighed almost as much as my husband at one point, but due to body composition, he still wouldn't have been able to fit into my clothes. Plus, I'm a shorty and he's tall.

    My best friend is around the same height as me and a little lighter, but he's a beanpole. I used to steal his jerseys whenever we'd play scary video games. One of my favorite memories. (Thankfully the shirts were already oversized, otherwise my boobs would have stretched those suckers out...)

    That's exactly how i feel. <3

    I'm confused. If you gain 100 pounds of flab and he stays the same -- should you dump him, or should he dump you? Are there exceptions for pregnancy?

    Yeah it might bother me for her to wear my clothes. She would be a She Hulk or She Zilla,lol. She could wear my shirt as a nightie though.

    well barring some health condition that just wouldn't happen. so IF it did happen I'd hope he'd nurse me back to health and support me.

    If he could fit in my clothes, he would be a teeny tiny man, indeed! :laugh:

    Firstly, I'd be thrilled at this point because it would mean that at least I actually HAVE a S.O. Secondly, if he fit my clothes, it wouldn't make me feel any worse (about my weight) than I already do everytime I look in the mirror.

    LOL - back when I thought I was fat, but was skinny, a boyfriend confused my jeans with his and tried to put them on. He was a pretty skinny guy and I was ecstatic when he couldn't get mine up over his hips!

    Now that I'm not skinny anymore, my husband definitely IS skinny and I would have trouble getting his jeans on. *sigh* Of course, they'd be about a foot too long, but they'd never make it up over my *kitten*...

    I'm 5' 3" my husband is 6' 3". Something would have to be seriously wrong for us to wear each others pants. But I steal his shirts all the time to wear around the house. :happy:

    It's not necessarily a big deal. I've ALWAYS been bigger than my boyfriends (until this one, in fact).

    However. "wearing my clothes" and "being able to fit into them" are two different scenarios.

    this and it kind of made me laugh lol
