    What would you say if I told you there are girls who actually prefer short guys? Hell, some people just like variety–I appreciate tall women, short women, medium women. I like 'em all.

    Having said that, I have met the girls you’re referencing. They do exist. A few months back, I went on a coffee date with a girl. Just before it, she made some joke about wanting to make sure I’m tall, because she hates dancing with guys who are shorter than her, so she just wanted to make sure. I wanted to vomit. I very rarely encounter a girl taller than me. I’m ~6’1, maybe pushing a little higher on a good day when my posture is okay. I want nothing to do with a girl who so values my height. Because if it’s THAT important, you’re literally one 6’3 guy away from a relationship crisis. By the way, the reason she was like that? She was taller than average. She was insecure and taking it out on everyone else. But imagine if I’d said to her, “I’m sorry, I just prefer shorter women. I find them more feminine.” Gross. She was surprised when I didn’t bother to hug her or…anything else, really…after coffee. Just got in my car and left. Whether you’re tall or short, that’s a bad match.

    There are girls who are like you say, but they are absolutely not all like that. You just need to focus on a better class of prospect.

            You’re not finding them because of your attitude.

            There are PLENTY of women who will happily hook up with, date and love short men. I’ve personally met more than I can count.

                My partner’s ex was short and she didn’t give a fuck about that - a few of my childhood friends were short and they’re all married now. There are features that are considered generally attractive and it’s certainly easier in life if you have those traits but, honestly, they’re so fucking unimportant compared to the other shit.

                If height was really that much of an issue then how could we all have been drooling over Peter Dinklage’s portrayal of Tyrion - hint it might be because there are more important things than height.

                Absolutely I can but can you tell me what value there is in me naming people in my life who you’ve never met? What good will seeing two names do? The attitude your carrying is just going to tell you that I’m lying no matter what.

                My husband’s shorter than I am. I’m sure there are other people here in a relationship that would be a counter example, but my sister’s husband is also shorter than she is (both by 2-3”).

              I didn’t even notice that my now-husband is considered short when we started dating until someone else mentioned it. I was just like, “Oh, I hadn’t thought about it.” Because why would I? We got on great.

        I’m right here, but they have to not give a shit about height, if they shit on themselves all they time, like you are doing them it just makes it draining to be around them.
