I'm 6'. Hubby claims he's 6'1" but I feel like he's a little bit taller... when I wear heels we generally see eye to eye. We met through my ex boyfriend.... they were shooting buddies. Whoops! But, here we are almost 3 years later and wonderfully happy newlyweds

I'm 6' and my husband is 6'3. Perfect for me. FYI: My best friend is 5' and her boyfriend is 6'7. Crazy.

I cant wait to find a tall guy for me...guess Ill just keep on waiting

One of the shorter guys I dated in high school loved it when I wore heels, even though I was a good 5-6'' taller than him with them. When I told him it just seemed weird, he said "What man wouldn't want to be with an Amazonian Goddess?"
Good answer.

My husband is 5'7.5 or so, and I'm 5'9. To be honest, I'm a little self conscious about it, but I'm more self conscious that we look like Jack Sprat in his wife- he weights somewhere around 170 pounds- I was over 100 pounds heavier than him at one point.

Hey ladies! I was just reading the uber poplular "How did you meet your SO" thread out in the general msg boards... And it got me thinking.

Who is dating/married to a Shorty and who has a Tally? :laugh: (I couldn't think of a better way to put it lol)

I am 5'11" and my love is 6'3" We have been together a little over a year.

What about you???

Awww this is a cute topic!

I am 6'0" and my boyfriend is the same height. We often squabble about who is taller, and inevitably, my heals always end up making me the biggest hehe. We have been together 7 months.

I am 5'11 and my husband is 6'3. I dated quite a few shorter guys...I think the shortest was 5'6 - and was pretty sure I was going to end up with a shorter guy. Then, I joined eHarmony and met my husband... we lived 1900 miles apart. After a few months of emailing and long phone calls, he came to see me. I will never forget this huge, giant of a man walking towards me - and when he hugged me, his arms completely engulfed me - and he was built like a brick wall. I couldn't move him! And then he picked me up!! Lol! I was done for. We will be married 8 years this summer.

I'm 6' and hubby is 6' 4"...we've been married 27 years.

Thank goodness I didin't meet hubby til he was in college!

In high school, he wore 29 X 36" jeans. Can you say PVC Pipe?!
Thankfully, he filled out a bit before I met him! I think his waist has stayed the same or expanded only by 1 or 2 inches in our 27 years. (Wish *I* could say the same!)

Oh and I own tons of heels and I wear them proudly. My husband tells me I look hot and doesn't bother him that I end up being 6-7 inches taller than him.

This is an awesome topic.

I have never had any issues dating men who were shorter than me. I have even dated someone who was 5 inches shorter. Physical appearance just isn't that important to me.
I have actually only dated one guy who was taller than me.

My husband is 1/2" shorter than I am. He is 5'10,5" and I am 5'11".

I wore ballerina slippers to our wedding!

Me too!

LOVE THIS! Me, too! I am 6'3" and hubby is 6"2"...so we were pretty much eye to eye. Tried dating a shorter guy...nope. Needed a big one.

My bf is 6'3" and built like a brick sh1thouse! His shoulders are the width of the door and he makes me feel tiny which is a mean feat since I get mistaken for a man sometimes when I'm in uniform even with a full face of makeup and earrings on.

Ivealways felt out of place and my last bf was only 1 inch shorter than me but told me to slouch down and I wasn't allowed wear heels.

My bf now makes me feel like a princess and calls me his Amazonian queen! Love it

As some of you know, I'm 8" taller than my husband. I'm 6.0 and he's 5.4. We met through a friend who had had a passing interest in him, but said the same thing that many of you have: he's too short for me. Given, I thought the same thing for a long time. My boyfriend previous to him was 6.6, former college BB player, black hair, blue eyes, smokin' hot body. But not a nice person. Very self-absorbed. We looked incredible together, but it was only skin-deep. When I met my husband, I didn't take him seriously. I also didn't know that he's a modern war hero, or that he would end up being the kindest, thoughtful, loving, generous, non-bull-*kitten* playing man I'd meet in my 31 years on Earth. Sometimes, his ex-girlfriends will contact his parents to find out what he's up to, and I imagine that it's because they all discounted him for his height and ended up married and divorced by d-bags. I am THE luckiest girl, and I'm so thankful that he was kind enough to allow me to realize it. Doesn't hurt that he's commonly (like once a week) mistaken for Tom Cruise. And I'm missing him today while he's deployed (for the 9th time.)

I love the diversity in all the responses!

My Husband (Together almost 2.5 years, married almost 1 year) thought he was 6'0" when we were first dating. However, I am 5'10" and I thought he seemed taller to me. Finally one day he gets measured my his doc and she says he's 6"1'. The cool thing is that he is always wearing cowboy boots or work boots which add a good 1-1 3/4 inches to his stature. He says he had to stand up taller because he was with a taller woman

I dated guys from 5'9" to 6'4" and I can tell you, yes the height was hard for me to get over. I wouldn't have said so at the time but guys that were skinnier or less then 2" taller then me, made me feel masculine. My ex-husband and 2 other boyfriends were 6'3"-6'4" and 165-180 lbs. I ALWAYS felt fat even when I was 155 lbs.

So, My husband, who I am so freakin' in love with it hurts, is tall enough that if I wanna wear my 4-5" heels, he puts on his cowboy boots and he is still taller then me. I will never outweigh him, I will never feel masculine around him and he's 15 years older then me. I love it!

I am 6'0 and my boyfriend is 6'9!

We met in college- he was my neighbor at my campus apartment. It took a few dates for me to realize how tall he actually was (not just compared to me)...I was actually more surprised that I found a guy who had the same weird/nerdy interests as me, as opposed to someone who was tall enough for me!!
