A general question to everyone... How important is height to you?

Would you consider dating someone who was noticeably taller or shorter than you? As a reference, say the person was six inches shorter/taller than you.

I am curious to hear perspectives from all sides of the spectrum. Thanks!


height isn't a factor... to a point. if the other person could pass for a circus midget, then there could be problems. if the other person stands significantly taller than me (which would be rather difficult as i stand 6'8"), then there could be some problems there, too.

but overall, height isn't that big a problem.

I like my guy to be taller than me, I'm 5 foot1 so its not hard to find. I truly like them to be 6 foot or more.

Matters in which sense? Would you go for someone noticeably shorter or taller?

Well, looking at the women that have replied so far, I'm an Amazon.

I'm 5'8" and height matters to me. And I'm talking about a man being my height or taller. I'm taller than a lot of guys, it seems. And there is something funny about this site, because a lot of guys in my area seem to be 5'10", at least on their profile. Some of them lie!noway Is every guy in Houston the same height?

Sometimes I struggle with this "issue", because I don't want to rule someone out based on their height. A guy's height used to bother me more when I was younger, it's not as much of a concern now. I'm sure that makes me look shallow to some people, but oh, well. I don't think it's any different than some of the other dealbreakers I see on here.

And to the OP, you're cute enough that I'd ignore our height difference.:wink:

My height and shorter is what I prefer.

I dated a girl that was taller than I am once ( she was only a couple of inches taller ) and I just didn't feel comfortable at all.

No idea why.

as long as he's taller than me, that's fine. height does help too when i'm wearing heels.
