Height

This is more a question aimed at the lads, but girls can answer too. When it comes to a girl, does it bother you how tall she may be? I mean im 5ft10 anyway, and sometimes when i go out i will wear 4" heels, would this bother you (bear in mind it makes me over 6ft).

(just asking cuz me and my mates were having a conversation about being tall and i said this was one of the major issues i had lol).

    I'm about 5"9, and my boyfriend is about an inch or two shorter than me, so I refuse to wear heels when I'm with him, although I love wearing them.

    It bothers me a bit, but I don't think he thinks anything of it.

    I wouldn't worry about being tall, sometimes i think i look too short next to my boyfriend!

    My friend is about 5'9/5'10 and she never has any problems with men her first boyfriend was about 5'6 and it didn't bother him that she was taller than him. It's one of them things that differs from person to person i guess.

    I'm 5'10 but hardly ever wear heels when I do they are only kitten heels which makes me slightly taller than my boyfriend, he doesn't mind tho. However, my sisters boyfriend is about 5'7 and shes 5'5 and if she wears her heels it makes her a couple of inches taller than him and it really bothers him so I've introduced her to the world of flatties!

    Try being 6' :yes:

    It's hard enough finding a boyfriend taller than you are, let alone one that minds whether you wear heels or not...not that I wear heels. I'd feel too tall like.

    Im a short arse at 5' 9" and i prefer girls to be shorter than me, my girlfriend is 5' 2" so shes cool. But hey theres always someone who likes a tall girl, a lot of guys like tall girls showing off their legs too.

    I'm only a mere 5'2"(i'm still growing;)) & a girl being shorter than me is a must. I'm a fan of short/petite girls & agree strongly with the good things come in small packages saying:p I've got no prejudice against girls taller than me it's just i've got a preference in my head.


    My gf is 5'0" so all is good. She says by me being 2" taller it makes her feel protected which makes me feel good in turn as i'm only scrawny.

    .:Crispy:.

    Being 6"4 Iv never realy had such a problem too short has been an issue but only for kissing it gives them a sore neck,

    Iv never been with anyone as tall as me and definatly not taller, if a girl was taller then me she'd know better than to insist on a man taller than her.

    I actually went out with a lad, that was the same size as me. I'm only 5'3 roughly. Personally I didn't like it. I prefer going out with lads that are taller than me. Think it's a security thing though. *shrugs*

    I'm 5ft 10, I'd go out with any woman shorter than me, the same height or slightly taller. I draw the line at 6ft tall, though. Not fussy, I think there are matters other than height which are of greater importance.

    There's a theory that women look for men who are like their fathers. Which is frankly rather disturbing if you think about it in too much detail. :yuck:

    No iots not its the same with guys and mothers, you find your self attracted to those who share caracteristics but arnt wholy the same.

    Its common sence realy in the same way youtend to acccept their political belifes, but with changes.

    Being 6'5 ive pretty much got no chance of meeting a girl taller than me. lol

    But i enjoy being taller than my gf as opposed to being the same size or shorter, cuz it makes you feel...i dont know...sounds a bit primitive i guess, but like a protector? I know that my gf has commented on how she likes being able to cuddle me and feel all safe and tiny and bundled up.....thats the idea im going for. hehe.

    As for the being attracted to different sized people, i remember reading somewhere that on an instinctual/genetic level, we choose partners that would give us the most average offspring....think about it....tall people, gone out with more short people than tall ones? and so on.....its a very odd concept, but makes a lot of sense....

    Peace

    I'm 5'10 and i like a guy to be taller than me, just so i can feel protected and safe when in their arms. My ex was about 6'4 so i was feeling very protected when with him. he's now going out with someone 5 foot which makes me giggle :lol: for some strange reason.

    That explains it. I'm 5ft 10, which for a guy seems to be neither short nor tall these days.

    It's not as if it is embaressing or anything :p

    I never used to think of myself as short because most of my friends were around my height or maybe a little bit taller and only a couple of my male mates were over 6ft.

    What is the average height for a man and a woman anyway?

    i'm guessing he's only going by this thread though, cause there's loads of tiny people here.
