Tee hee! I am 5'1 and 3/4"--short by pretty much anyone's definition. Other than the annoyance of having to get pants hemmed, being short hasn't scarred me for life. Nor has it ever prevented me from getting dates, (or now) having a happy marriage.
Greeklawboy is 6'2", but I haven't ever heard him complain about the height difference. We get funny looks sometimes when we're walking down the street, but hey--it works for us.
