So I'm doing a low stress meet tomorrow with someone I have been texting with only thing is he is shorter than me. Never dated anyone shorter than me but I am tall so I guess it happens. This shit isn't easy I really didn't picture myself having to date again for a while but fucker fucks up so there it is. Gotta get out the flats for whatever I'm gonna wear to this. Trip report to follow.
I wouldn't have a problem dating a taller chick, but I'm 6'0 and have no insecurity about it. Maybe if I was 5'8 I'd feel differently. In general I think it's mostly short dudes that make a big deal out of it.
Can't say I blame them. Women are brutal about discriminating against them. It's no big deal for women to refuse short guys, but god forbid you tell a girl she's too fat.
I think we need tine and garrett's advice up in here before I decide to comment.
true, a small women has an advantage, but you can offset that if you've done your kegels
How tall are you?Quote:

Also beware that shorter guys often fudge their height. Often 5'8 really means 5'6, 5'6 really means 5'3-5'4, etc.
OKCupid (I think) posted a histogram of how males users report their height, and there's a huge spike at 6'0. Not because there's a disproportionate number of people that height, but because it's the popular choice when lying.Quote:

I'm 5'9" low stress meet is coffee or busy park setting for chatting in person.
I don't need kegels tight as a drum had my only kid c section so it is as it was.
How old is he?Quote:

He is 53.
Have found if I go younger then kids are involved and not interested in that.
I could have Anna Nicoled it with a rich old dude but life too short and I've never been about the money.
so no problem really...Quote:

That's funny because twinks do the opposite. They'll say 5' 7" when really they're 5' 9".Quote:

I'm 5'8 so in the somewhat short category. And ya guys totally get discriminated against based on height. One of the most discriminatory practices is in employment. But women are absolutely the worst when it comes to this. I have known several extremely liberal women who make it very clear they won't date any guy under 6 foot and see no problem openly stating this.
Anyways I've only ever been with a girl who was 1-2 inches taller. It was kinda odd making out and having to reach up slightly. It would never be a deal breaker though and really the problem is on the women's end and not the guys (even if the guy feels insecure I can't imagine him rejecting a girl based on height).
Part of it might have to do with rounding issues. I am just a hair under 6' (5' 11-1/2" tall), do I really want to mess with writing all that out time and again or do I just write 6' for brevity's sake?Quote:

Its an ego boost for the dude.
Dating a taller woman is like dating a woman that is really smart or really rich. He's going to try extra hard to impress you. Be prepared for a lot of lies.
I enjoy dating a woman that is taller than me. Fatter is a different story.
most women want a man to be taller by 6" but will settle for only 4" greater....high heels being the reason, without that height difference they will be taller when wearing heals...i am 6'1&1/2"...tallest i dated was 5'10", she was easy pickings (so was Miss 5'9")Quote:

Now go put on a pair of heels you insecure little cunt.
It's always about the connection.
I don't really get along with most women, and thats being honest. They have ideals, or differences and I get it, so it doesnt work. I am a firm believer that maybe your best work can be done alone.
If you dont have an issue with it I'm sure he wont. He'll probably have a positive view about you that youre not hung up on it. Men just like attractive. Most dont care if its 4ft or 6'2. Pretty is pretty.
I'm exactly 5'11. Bare feet. I never even contemplated that I got shot down for not being tall enough back in the day. I dont think I ever even knew how much women valued height until I started seeing online profiles say 6'0 minimum.
I guess I'm close enough or girls were polite
My eyes are going, I thought the thread read How do you feel about dating trailer chicks.
I'm more than fine with either.
All of this attention whoring is not complete without pics/tits
LOVE HUGE BITCHES
also if richard gere and carrie lowell cant make it love is dead split just get a pet turtle and start making your own wine

Split. You should date someone short enough to eat your ass without getting on his knees. Best of luck.
