soaking_wet Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 There's this guy that I work with, lets call him S. and since i've met him I thought we was really cute, but I never thought anything would happen between us... cuz i didn't think he was into me at all haha... anyway, last night at work this guy told him that I thought he was cute and stuff and he just laughed and then the guy's like "she's pretty..." and stuff ..and S. is like "ya she is pretty, i like the way she dresses" ...and when my friend told me that I was soo excited!! ...hahah ya anyway, after I came back, S. was talking to me more and he asked me for my email address and before I left I said bye to him and he's like "cya! i'll add u!" ...lol ya and I am sooooooooooooooooooooooo into him!! and i feel this strong connection between us! I stayed up thinking of him all night!!!!!!! ...ya he's totally fine and stuff but there's just one problem... he's shorter than me he's like up to my shoulders...lol I would wanna go out with him but i'd feel like a giganto or sumthing!! ...should I let that come in the way of this beautiful thing? Also, a question for the ladies, would you go out with a guy shorter than you? Be honest please!!! Thanks! Link to comment
Mythical_Suicide Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 If it's really meant to be I dont see why height plays a big issue, Unless of course you are completely appalled by short guys which is obviously not the case because y'all clicked so well. I'd say give it a go. Link to comment
honeyspur Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I, myself, prefer guys my height (5'5) or shorter. I say, go for it. Link to comment
soaking_wet Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 lolz ... I'm 5'9 and the guy i like is 5'5 or 5'6 i'd say ... would that look weird going out with him?? Link to comment
Mythical_Suicide Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 NO! a guy wouldnt have a second thought of being that height and dating a chic 5'5" or even shorter, why should it be any different for a girl? Link to comment
soaking_wet Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 wow that totally makes sense ...haha it's my new favorite quote!!! ...Thanks!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
LilyXX Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I never had this problem, because I am 5'1, so everyone else is taller. I preffer guys that are not too tall. If I were you I would still date him, who cares what other people think. Link to comment
PrincessJOA Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 yeah... who cares what people think. tom cruise is short, look at his whats-her-name wife, shes taller than him. its just height. no need to think twice about it Link to comment
Batya33 Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 It's all about attraction. I am more attracted to men under 5"6 (I am 5"2, boyfriend is 5"5 and he dated seriously a woman who is 5"9). Look - he has to put up with the fact that you "say" "like" in, like, every other word - so it's a fair trade off in my humble opinion ;-) Link to comment
RayKay Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I have dated shorter men (like 5'4"-5'6"ish - I am 5'4"). One of my old coworkers was 6' (female) and her boyfriend of 2 years was 5'3". For some it matters, for others it does not. I go with the latter myself....when picking a great partner, height is not on my list of specifics he must or must not have. Link to comment
rocio Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Today I was walking with my ex, who is shorter than me, and he was holding an umbrella and it almost poked my eyes out. Dating short men is dangerous. Link to comment
New_Horizons Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Also, a question for the ladies, would you go out with a guy shorter than you? Be honest please!!! Thanks! I'm not sure why you would ask this question. Are you just curious as to what other women do, or are you seeking approval? What if the majority of women say "NO" to this question? Would you then rethink your decision to date a short guy? If yes, why should the preferences of other women impact your decision? Why do you care what other women think of your dating choices? It's like me asking guys if it's ok if I date a woman fatter than me. What would you honestly think of me if I refused to date any woman ten pounds heavier than me? Of course if you're just bored and asked this question for no particular reason, please disregard whatever I said. Link to comment
run_little_rabbit Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I dated one guy in high school that was 4 or 5 inches shorter than me... even when we were sitting I towered over him! I'm 5'10 and my current boyfriend is about an inch and a half shorter. It doesn't bother me at all. When we first started dating it seemed to bother him a bit, but he doens't even bring it up anymore. Link to comment

CynicalGuitarist Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I'm pretty sure he chose to be short... because you ladies seem to think that us guys who are consciously/subconsciously choose to be. Link to comment
New_Horizons Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I'm pretty sure he chose to be short... because you ladies seem to think that us guys who are consciously/subconsciously choose to be. Yup. But extra tonnage on a woman is an act of God and any guy who turns down such a woman for this reason is a shallow, superficial, pompous bigot. Yup. Makes sense, doesn't it? Link to comment
soaking_wet Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 I was just curious ... and i like hearing other people's opinions... altho, they wudn't change my mind about a guy ... i'm totally into this guy, short or not i dont care... he's sweet, really cute... and all together irresistible Link to comment
girlie219 Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Well I am 5'9 and have dated a guy shorter than me but most have been taller to be honest Link to comment
Budman Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Why would a guy mind the top of his head reaching your shoulders, being 6'3 I would really like that opportunity to be that short. I'd always want to slow dance Always *looks at wife* Waltz with me honey Link to comment
iwishiknew Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 I am 5'5 and I have been turned down and stood up several times because of my height..Many times I found several girls interesting and attractived and of coarse they were tall about 5'7 to 5'9 and wouldn't go out with me..In my opnion height is an important key factor for alot of girls..

real2 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Really, you're better on riding on personality than height. Link to comment
Kevin T Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 If height truly mattered, I'd be picking up women like no tomorrow. But I don't. Guess why? Because height isn't all that matters!!! Sure, they care about looks, but a women will overlook a short guy if he is good looking otherwise. Link to comment
shy2cool Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 5"10 to 6"3 is the 'ideal' height Link to comment
Kevin T Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Maybe... but being short needn't be your bane. It can be overcome. I knew a guy... only 5'7" or so (used to be a good friend). Anyway, he was over 200 lbs, but it was all muscle. The guy used to body-build and looked incredible. I looked even more pathetic next to him. He got women like no tomorrow. He used to tell me I was insecure and had nothing to offer women. I got mad at him at the time, but now that I think on it... The bloke was right! lol Link to comment
Batya33 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 5"10 to 6"3 is the 'ideal' height In your opinion only - the ideal height for me is a man of 5"5-5"8. Link to comment
