I am 5'3" -- I usually wear heels which adds several inches to my height-- but I have never dated anyone close to my height----- I have more a thing for tall guys. There is a 21inch height difference between me and my husband.

I'm 5'8", about 5'10" in heels. My boyfriend is about 5'6". At first it was a little akward to me seeing as I had never dated anyone who wasn't taller than me.

I got over it really quickly. I cared about him and wanted to be with him and I am. I will wear heels out and he doesn't care.

If you really like this girl, you shouldn't let height bother you. If she really likes you, it won't bother her either..

I'm about 4'8" so almost everyone I date is taller than me, but I'm paying about $200/hr so it's really not that awkward.

Do you usually go to places with stairs so that way that'll even things up a bit?

I could never date a guy who was shorter then me...or skinnier.

I'm 5ft 10 and 1/2 inches :D and I would prefer to date men who are taller than me... but I have dated one guy who was pretty much the same height as me and it didn't bother me. I don't think I would be interested in dating someone shorter than me, but I wouldn't rule it out. My mommy is also 3 inches taller than my daddy, and they still like each other ;)

I prefer a taller man---and that's mostly what I've gotten. Currently, my man is 6'2'', and I'm 5'6''.......

Especially since most of the time she's on her knees.

I'm 5'7 and I love to wear heels. I need a guy that will still tower over me in heels so my requirement is that he's at least 6 feet. My boyfriend is 6'2. Perfect.

Allie 10-18-2005 08:49 PM

I'm 5'10" and have never dated a guy under 6'

What can I say I love heeels! That and I'm the shortest person in my family.

RioLambdaAlum 10-26-2005 11:28 PM

My sweety is like an inch shorter than I am...he has no problem with the fact I am "taller," when I was picking out shoes to wear to a wedding we went to he said he didn't care if I wore heals cause he has no problem with the whole height issue. I thought that was sweet and cool!

CSUSigEp 10-28-2005 08:26 PM

so upon further review shes actually about an inch shorter than me when we are both barefoot. I like her a lot and ive gotten over the height thing. We are going to formal this weekend in Tahoe ill be sure to take a picture and post it in here.

Oh and shes also the shortest in her family, her mom is 6'1, her dad is 6'2, and she has a brother that is 6'8 and growing!

rhochi2002 10-28-2005 10:02 PM

I am 4'11"... I have never met a guy shorter than me...
I have girlfriends who are taller than their boyfriends...
I don't like guys that are skinnier than me though.

afboiler 10-28-2005 11:22 PM

That is one of my rules. To date you I can not be taller than you when I am wearing heels. Its just stragne.

I definitely have this thing about girls taller than me. I dated a swimmer spring of my junior year, who was about an inch taller than me w/o heels...and b/c she's a D1 swimmer her shoulders were broader than mine...I still weighed more than she did...if I hadn't, that would have been even worse.

Anyways, as nice and fun as she was and all, it bothered me a lot. She's still one of my friends which for me says a lot, b/c usually I totally drop former girlfriends off the face of the planet.

I think part of the problem was that I have always loved short girls and so I have this ideal of a girl who's about 5'4 -5'6. I think that's why it bothered me so much.
