| Men don't like TALL women
Posted: 1/4/2008 6:14:42 AM | but ..thing is he asks me if I like high heels and i say yes..and when I wear them .. he says...wow are you ever tall in those...and then I end u ptaking them off
Are you sure he doesn't like it that you are taller than him.? This is a fantasy for lots of guys...so are you sure that he doesn't like it when he says "wow are you ever tall in those"? He might mean it as a compliment.

Nah! I don't think it was meant as a compliment....i think the OP might be suggesting that her short SO...is a tad insecure and is beginning to whine..
She may have perhaps insisted he wear platform shoes to match her heels....just my 2 cents. | |

Posted: 1/4/2008 9:04:46 AM | Hey cutie, us tall guys love talk pretty girls as long as they are not fat, but tall girls are in very short supply, we love those nice gorgeous long legs.
now days the problem is finding tall girls that are not fat or big.

I think he wants someone closer to his size...i think height has been an issue in our relationship...sad..becuase we are so compatible in bed and out...
Jo, since you seem to want to save the relationship which appears to be deteriorating due to you perception of his issues, why don't you just sit the guy down and talk with him about it. Both of you might be surprised at what you hear. In any event, it doesn't seem like you have anything to lose by trying, AND you have everything to gain. Good luck! | |

| Men don't like TALL women
Posted: 1/12/2008 4:10:44 PM | | Wow, I am 5'8. 6" with heals and I have only been approached by men who are 6" and under. My ex was 6'4" and I loved that height. I felt so petite next to him and it was wonderful. I don't mind being eye to eye with guys, but it seems that the really tall dudes don't look twice at me any more. Maybe it is my age? I'm 39 now. Maybe tall guys who are attractive are so pursued by women that they just end up with shorter chicks because it makes them feel more masculine??? | |

Posted: 1/13/2008 11:28:19 AM | | Oh how I agree with Ocali. I'm the same size as her and experience the same thing. I also find a taller man more my preference because of the petite reasoning. I just love feeling littler, smaller, less as tall as the man. But again, it is personal preference. I was went out with someone 5'7" and even though he said I had "sex" written all over me, he doesn't do tall then proceeded to ask if he could "do" me just to try it out. Well, little short sh-t is no longer around. I'm nobody's jungle gym or someone to climb up or all over. | |

Posted: 1/13/2008 8:35:41 PM | | I have the same problem! I'm taller than all of my friends and most of their boyfriends! Its hard for me to find a guy thats taller than me that I'm attracted to! I go anywhere and I'm taller than most of the people there...guys included!! I've tried dating someone shorter than me, and it just doesn't work for me. I just like having someone to look up to and having to bend down to kiss someone...no thanks! Being a tall girl is hard, and only good for one thing: sports!!. | |

taller girls ... are quite intimidating.
i don't find tall women any more intimidating than short women... you're all pretty intimidating. 
being 6'7", my definition of tall might be a little different than most people's, but over the years i've dated women from 5' to over 6'. height(or lack thereof), has never been an issue for us.
though i must say getting the opportunity to dance to cheek-to-cheek occassionally, instead of cheek-to-chest can be a treat. | |

Posted: 1/13/2008 11:38:06 PM | | Judging from the forum posts I've skimmed through it seems to be a myth that Men don't like tall women. But I know it's not completely false. I have friends that refuses to even consider dating a taller girl (he's 5'8) because they don't find them attractive even when they are stunning. | |

Posted: 1/21/2008 3:20:30 PM | | hey, i'm 6'2" and come from a tall family. my sister is 5'10" and my brothers are either already taller than me, or well on their way. i think the real question is, when you're approached by a taller guy, why don't you give him an extra chance? if it's so important, why not spend the extra time to see if he's a good guy? i definitely go out of my way to look for a taller girl. i don't want to have a step stool at the end of the aisle for my bride to stand on! ha. even though taller girls say they want a taller guy, my experience has been negative with them. i wonder if greater height translates into a confidence that borders on condescension. i would love to hear someone else's perspective! | |

Posted: 1/21/2008 4:26:50 PM | | Some men might not like because of my height ( 5' 10" ) , but there are plenty of other men who don't care about height or even prefer tall women. In general, women care more about height than men do. | |

Posted: 1/23/2008 5:57:22 AM | | Do men really find tall women intimidating? If so, I wonder why. I have often wondered about this. I do think a tall woman has to be very careful how she carries her height. She must stand tall and own it. Nothing more unattractive than a tall female slouching in an attempt to shrink herself. | |

Posted: 1/23/2008 6:13:51 AM | 7 feet + women are OK, 8 feet or more - I find intimidating.
Luckily, not too many women are above 8 feet in my area | |

Posted: 1/23/2008 8:45:25 AM | Everyone has their own taste...being 5'11 w/o shoes..I usually date shorter men, because with shoes on (yes almost all cute shoes have heels) I'm about 6'2.
I've come across a few guys who it bothered, I could care less if you like me or not, I'm not gonna slouch for ya!!
I think its because I'm not a shrinking wall-flower, I work out hard, and take kickboxing. I just might not be everyone's cup of tea. To each their own I say!! | |

Posted: 1/23/2008 2:17:28 PM | | If someone doesn't like you just because you're tall or short for that matter or has a problem with it maybe you're better off anyway.No doubt you are a very beautiful woman who deserves the best but don't be worried about it.I'm a short**s 5'7 and honestly I've been with tall ,Short,big, small as long as the chemistry is there everything else seems to not really matter because you're with each other.As for being intimidated about approach all I can say is it's really all in how someone is presenting themselves.If someone walks around thinking they're some kind of model chances are no one will approach them just laugh at them,but if they just be themselves better things will happen. | |

Posted: 1/23/2008 2:31:57 PM | ....or do they??
I am 5'10" and adore wearing heels which puts me at over 6 feet tall. I have dated only a few men who are shorter than me and I couldnt get past the fact that when we were eye to eye theirs were lower! ~smiles Oh and one was aghast the one evening that i wore heels..He acted strange all evening..
I feel more comfy with taller men (over 6 feet tall) We seem to align body parts easier when we dance  and ummm get close. 
To be honest I wont respond to a man who is under 5'9" because I know there is no way it will work for me, plain and simple..Ive tried and failed three times now.
I am proud to be tall and elegant when i stride across the room..yes I have those long legs to go with my height and many men, short and tall, have told me that is a major turnon...

Posted: 1/23/2008 2:49:35 PM | | Im 5'8 with no shoes on and 5'9 and up depending on the shoes I wear. I love my height wouldn't change it for anything, 5'8 is the perfect height, and every guy I have dated loves it. Men 5'11 an 6ft arent much taller then me, but I never seem to date a guy taller then 6'1, I guess shorter guys are cuter or at least there are more of them out there. Well technically they aren't short Iam just tall for a female. But being a female and being tall is nice, I love the feeling. | |

Posted: 2/29/2008 9:30:18 PM | | Many of us like women of equal stature. I am 6'4" and prefer taller women, although that is not the criteria for meeting them. There's nothing intimidating about it. Character and personality always win out over height, but give me a taller woman with those qualities any time. A lot of men prefer short women so they can dominate them, I believe. | |
