I'm inbetween 5'8 and 5'9.
urself?
^Panther^
08-05-2007, 07:25 AM
same...this is getting to be really weird T_T
also, if you're that height, what's so weird in dating girls about 5'1" or 5'2"? i know a hot girl wo is 5'1" and i just can't think of her as a sister considering how hot she is...
@EDIT: how old are you?
motoki
08-05-2007, 07:29 AM
there is this one girl that i liked a while back who was about that height too....pretty little thing, i might add.
nope, there's nothing wrong with it, and if i meet someone who's around there and we click, it's all good! not saying nothing bad...short is fine, just probably 5 feet is where i draw the line
EDIT: 21...u?

08-05-2007, 07:34 AM
15. that's probably why you prefer them taller. at my age, not many of the girls get too much taller...
motoki
08-05-2007, 07:36 AM
Hmm, i suppose...or it just means they're taking growth hormones. But then they start growing hair in places they shouldn't and they get buffer than you are....it's not pretty.
I was gonna say if you were my age....you might be my long lost twin (which i dont think i have) but it would be cool to find one
^Panther^
08-05-2007, 07:38 AM
that would be cool. talking about twins is funny cause i have one, but unfortunately, he isn't lost :p

Wow, that bad huh? well, if you want, i could arrange him to be lost permantly if you know what i mean *hint, hint, wink, wink, nudge, nudge*
no charge

Height does matter!!! When i was younger i had a relationship with a very short girl . She was very very very very very very . . . . very very very cute. Well the whole perfect situation was ruined when we danced. When we tryied to dance*. Im quite tall , and i just couldnt dance with her. It was very embarasing.... for both of us.
So height DOES matter ! I havent met many women taller than me ( 1,83 cm .. not THAT tall but im stil 16.. so im taller than most guys / girls i know ) so i dont know about me being the shorter one. But i guess it wouldnt hurt. As long as the difference wasnt vast lawl.

I mean its not like it has to matter, its more like it could matter to some people, for example, my gf is like 20 cm shorter than me and im ok with it, btw 1.84 m, but there's also this very cute girl at school that ive liked since like forever, but i mean she's like 1.40 m, so cmon, im not gonna ask her out just because of 3 reasons:
1.-She looks like she could be my daughter, i mean it
2.-She has a boyfriend
3.-She was interested in me, but not anymore
Those who think im a jurk for this say "I"
and i have to say it too: I think that Xlayer is a Mo'fo and a jurk, but then again, im usually a nice guy and help others, so it kinda balances things :P

lol i know what you mean =p
i dont think you're a jerk, those are three really good reasons =p
I'm 1.88 m (6ft 2') and i wouldn't date a girl who's 1.40 m either XD 1.50 m really is the minimum. And I don't think I'm a jerk for that reason (for other reasons, maybe ^^) though, it's just my preference =p
a 1.40 m girl would look like my little sister, we couldn't kiss, dance (well, i don't dance anyway lol) and i would look a bit funny.

I'm sure a girl could be taller than me, I mean, I'm like 6'1" so its like, they'd have to be a giant! xD
But I guess its entirely possible, personally matters most! xD

Gentlemen:
Do you see yourself in a serious relationship with a girl taller then you?
I do for that is my preferance; a girl who is taller than me. An I mean TALLER; like you can see it when you walk by taller. 2, 3 f inches even a foot, the taller the better in my opinion but I have gone out with people shorted than me, I just like the tall gals. ^_^
im 5'10" and im taller then most the girls i cane date so i have never rilly thought of it. in the end i say ya i would

well i would prefer to be at least a little bit taller if i was dating a girl but im single and i have lots of time to find a girl shorter than me. i hope i sprout up some time but i seem to grow extremely slow!

I don't like girls taller then me. I mean, I'm 1.80m, I'm not really tall, but most girls are shorter then me. And to be honest (*blushes*) short girls are kinda cute (but not when they're extremely short, that just takes away the cuteness).
Evil_Mirai
08-22-2007, 04:48 PM
Well.. I have a tall friend, who's a girl and she said she could never date a shorter guy. She feels uncomfy.
And I never thought of the height much. It has never been a problem for me :D
SillyMilly
08-24-2007, 02:33 AM
As much as I hate to admit it but height is a major factor for me because I want a guy to be taller than me when I wear heels. ^^;;
pylar
08-24-2007, 05:52 PM
I'm fairly short, so I don't run into this problem very often, but yeah, I normally like boys to be taller than myself. Because then you fit into that niche under their armpit when you stand next to them with one arm around them >.> Cant do that when they are of a similar height.
Vivi_Hino
08-25-2007, 02:10 AM
Height doesn't really matter to me, but i've never had a serious relationship with anyone actually. But in the near future, yes, i can see myself with a guy shorter then me. I care about the personality more then the looks though.
^Panther^
08-25-2007, 02:24 AM
i noticed something here: it seems that most girls prefer their guys to be taller than them while most guys prefer their girls to be shorter than them =P
motoki
08-25-2007, 04:47 PM
So therefore life works, and the harmony of the universe has been restored!
Woot! Ummm, yeah that's a general patern although there are the exceptions where guys like taller girls and some girls like shorter guys.

well I'm 6'1" (1.85 Meters) so most girls I know are shorter than me. I was only 5'10"(1.77 M) until I turned 21 (really late growth spurt), so I used to be kinda self-concious about being short; and I wouldn't date girls who were taller than me. That was until I met my ex-gf who I was an amazing person, so I guess what I'm trying to say is:
Height used to be a factor, until I met someone special enough to make me not care about anything except being with her.

i feel kinda hurt. you make it sound as if people who are 5'10" are midgets ;_:
i'm only 5'8".
i was 5'2" just a year ago, so i was extremely short back then...

08-25-2007, 10:14 PM
Yeah? We'll I'm 5'5''! ;_;
Don't care though, I'm cute as button and made of magic plastic. And I have plenty of time to grow.

i'm 15 too. i was 5'5" just a month ago. i pretty much started my growth sprout this a couple months ago...and it's all right donut. i'm sure you'll grow. i was always short, but i started to grow. don't feel bad in yourself! ^_^

I never do anyway ^_______________^

08-25-2007, 10:37 PM
that's good. i always worry especially since i love basketball and basketball is harder when short...also, the girl i like is about 5'7" to 5'8" and i feel weird liking someone my height. those are the main reasons i want to grow taller...
Donut
08-25-2007, 10:58 PM
Same here. I luuuuuuve basketball. But I'm pretty good at it already, it's it's hilarious pwning tall guys at it when you're short :p
I don't really care how tall the girl is tbh.
^Panther^
08-26-2007, 11:01 PM
i'm good at basketball, but i'd like to be taller so that i'm better at playing defense...

Sometimes i'd like to be taller, sometimes i'm good at my height...but never want to be shorter than i am.

lost in translation.
im 5'5 and find most chicks are shorter or slightly taller than me (atleast the hot ones)
i feel sorry for a guy who is 6 foot and has a tall chick fetish XD

it would feel a bit insulting if the girl was taller than me
^Panther^
08-31-2007, 01:22 AM
i wouldn't feel insulted, just a bit uncomfortable...
I don't really care, but I would like to have a girl smaller than me so I can look down and she would have to stand on her tip toes to kiss me.
^Panther^
08-31-2007, 01:31 AM
hg, are you tall for your age?
yes it is. I wouldnt date a girl that is under my underarms and stuff no matter how pretty she is. Simple as that. Would you date the jolly green giant?
KholdStare
09-13-2007, 07:53 PM
Hmm, I actually liked a girl in my college but she was about an inch taller than me so I never really had the courage to start anything. Even though it's just an inch, in heels she would tower over me.
Kouseiyouso
09-22-2007, 12:27 AM
For me, it is. I don't really want to date a chick that's taller than me. Don't get me wrong, it might be a fun experience in bed, but I wouldn't commit. It'd look kinda goofy to be making some lovey dovey action in public and having to stand on my freakin' tiptoes just to make out with her.
I like short chicks, but I like'em to be too short. Possibly around 5 feet to 5 "4. Short chicks are fun. :)
Juujika
09-22-2007, 12:35 AM
I dont think height matters much for guys, height is more a factor for females.
Me personally, as long as the girl has dark brown or black hair and a cute smile i'm like butter lol. Totally had a crush on one of my english teachers when in high school, she always used to sit on the desk infront of me and cross her legs and spread them slightly when i was there. Short woman with short black hair... grr so wanted her lol.
Like alot of women/girls don't want guys shorter then them, guess it makes them think 'well hes shorter so hes either weaker then me, or weaker then the normal guy' which is a load of bull, i have a short friend whos fists feel like there packed with bricks *shrug*.
Twister1352
09-22-2007, 02:35 AM
well, I'm 6'1 (possibly taller.. that was the last time I was checked so probably 6'1-6'3)
and I prefer a girl who's shorter than me :)
dash142
09-23-2007, 06:17 AM
I'm kinda tall, and it sucks that most of the hot chicks at my school are short, but I don't want to get in a relationship with anyone who dosen't atleast come up to my neck. My neck hurts enough from looking down at my GBA and DS.
Well the girl i like is almost 4 months older than me and a bit taller!but i really dont care...she's got a great personality and thats well enough for me!

Depends:
If I'm in a relationship with a boy than he should be taller than me.
If I'm in a relationship with a girl than I don't care about the height.

hum...maybe i'm misinterpreting your post...;)
anyway...
i all honesty, as a guy, i'd like to be taller than my girlfriend...
though i'm 6 foot 1, actually 6 foot 2 with shoes :redbiggri
girls are pretty tall in europe, it isn't rare to see 6 foot tall girls...

well it would be really hard to see myself in a relationship with a girl that is taller then me.i am 6'1" as it is so she would have to be pretty tall
Shezmu
10-04-2007, 05:59 PM
I don't really give a **** about the height of the girls I like, it doesn't matter if you truly love her.
I would find it pretty awkward if the girl is taller than me though, I'm 6'2'' with shoes on maybe close to 6'3'', I don't see girls taller than me very often =p
Actually I like short chicks, like 5'2'' - 5'5'' (I don't really know how to use the feet and inches system but i guess thats around 165 cm) It's fun because you can just lift them with no effort and stuff =p
Only downside i can think of at the moment is when you want to dance with a girl almost a ft. shorter, but I don't dance anyway ^^
Amira
10-07-2007, 11:45 AM
Umm. I guess I have to say that it matter's to me. I probably wouldn't feel very comfortable with a guy shorter than me, though I don't usually care about looks or height that much. It's just that I'm pretty short myself, so the guy should be reeeeally short to be shorter than me. And that would be kind of weird.

Im 6'0 so . . . if a girl is actually taller than me i would freak out, lol jk, but i actually like girls who arent taller than me

I'm about 6'3... and even if I was short and found someone I liked that was taller than me, I probably wouldn't mind that much. Short? I Don't care if they are short or not, just not midget like.

mostly not taller at all..Its the opposite for girls they look for someone taller while for guys some one shorter than them.

10-14-2007, 04:37 PM
I'd prefer it if the guy was taller than I am. I don't want the guy to be too tall to where I'd have trouble kissing him and what not. So in some aspect, yes, height does matter to me.

I think it'd be hard for me to date a girl who's taller than i am >_<; in fact, i tend to have a preference towards women quite a bit shorter than I am~ at least a few inches shorter.
Not sure why, perhaps because i've always been so confident in my height (i'm only 6'1, but i've been so since the 6th grade, so i started out ahead of people)~ but yeah.

11-05-2007, 04:37 PM
I prefer my GF to be shorter then me. Don't know why, maybe it has something to do with my male ego or something. I just feel if shes taller then me, like shes gonna be protecting me if something happens lol, and I don't want that. That and if shes wearing high heels... my god... I would look like a midget if she was already taller then me. I'm only like 5'10"-5'11" so most girls I date/have dated are usually around my heighth.

11-12-2007, 12:51 AM
I like my bf to be taller. I'm pretty short tho, only 5'1, so not a 6 foot tall giant or anything, but just tall enough that my head reasts on his chest and his head rests on top of mine when we hug. hugs like that are the most romantic :winking56

11-12-2007, 09:26 AM
my boyfriend MUST be taller than me.. i don't want to be walking around with a guy who's height is like a lil kid.. i mean.. they'll ask, is that you lil bro..
that'll be embarrassing.

11-12-2007, 09:35 AM
Height isn't a problem for me.
It would be nice if the guy was a little taller than me but if he wasn't, it wouldn't bother me. As long as he wasn't too short...
I'm 5'4", so most guys are taller than me anyway...

unless u wanna be like risa and otani from love.com!
then there's no prob at all! :3

it would be akward if the guy was shorter than me

My girl has to be tall enough so i don't have to bend over to kiss/hug her.
But not too tall that I have to tip toe to do that also.. lol

I'm a girl and height really isn't that important. I dated someone who was 6'8 once, he was a bit too tall, but it never affected what I felt for him. And for some strange reason I seem to be attracted to guys who are about my same height or even a few inches shorter.
Graffik
11-20-2007, 05:04 AM
If I was 5'6 or something I'd say no problem -- but at 6'3, I doubt I'd give a girl taller then me a second chance, with the exception we're in the same class or something but that's unlikely, just the prejudice of the human mind...
shiny808
11-20-2007, 05:11 AM
Im 5' 8'' which is pretty average, and most girls arent too tall so really.
So anything a bit shorter than me would be fine. If she was really tall, them im not so sure.
Its kinda bad, but its hard for me to turn someone down just cause shes taller than me
micky
12-01-2007, 05:39 AM
I've always been taller than all the guys, but I don't think my height or his would affect anything between us, I've seen so many case of the tallest person and the shortest person, and it never affected their relationship.

12-01-2007, 06:14 AM
No it isn't... but it would be cuter and better if the girl was shorter

it's awkward dating a guy shorter then yoo my ex was a couple of inches shorter then me and it felt really odd

Generally i would prefer a guy taller than me hahax
If shorter , i kinda find it wierd =.=
It would be nice if hes the right height when i can lie on his shoulders perfectly and without straining my neck >_>
Steffy
12-05-2007, 05:25 AM
I really can't see myself dating a guy shorter than me. It's not that I'm shallow, but I like the guy to be taller than me. That gives me a sense of security.

I can see it but I mostly lean towards guys my height or taller. My ex was the same height as me.
