Height does matter sometimes. If you are the same height, imagine the things you can do while standing up. Big Grin

I am 5'10" hubbie is 6'2" I prefer to be slighty shorter, but not crazy shorter, my brother is 6' and wife is 5'1" it looks looks like he is with a pre teen, plus if short women take the tall guys there are fewer for us tall woman (it doesn't help that I don't like my sister in law)

I'm 5'9", my girlfriend is about 5'7". I've never considered height when dating. In high school, I dated a girl a few inches taller than me. I never thought twice about it.

But I have noticed that my height is a convenient way for a girl to turn me down. Sorry Goalie, she'll say. I only date tall guys.

Well I guess I like the feeling of being taken care of and so when the man is taller then I feel like he is the protector. I know this is stupid... I just don't want to feel bigger/taller. It is superficial and not right I guess, now I think about it.

I am 6' and my fiance is about 5'6

She is actually the shortest I have ever dated...strange.

Ex's were all 5'8" to 5'11"...long legs are nice. Fortunately my fiance makes up for her lack of leg length in other ways. drool

I have a 6 foot minimum when it comes to men. Looks like you barely made the cut off Mr. Johnson.

I thought that almost all women prefer their men taller than they are for that very reason. Aren't people allowed to be superficial when choosing a significant other? I mean, you have to be attracted to the person.
