Is there anyone out there that would date shorter men
Posted: 5/5/2009 10:43:41 AM
I have a really good friend but he is short he is between 5' - 5 '2" he doesn't get to many women who like shorter men beings as they are taller... he is a very nice guy and would like to date more but is finding more women who like taller men...verses the opposite..anyone interested out there??? The question would be what's so bad about dating a guy that is shorter than you?

I have a friend who has a propensity to date shorter men. She recently engaged in a relationship with a guy who is ...............yep, shorter then her by a head. What is great is my friend is 6'1" and loves to wear 4 inch heels....So, yes, there are girls out there that date shorter guys.

I prefer guys that are taller then me....have no logical reason why that is just how it is.

Why do you have to be so negative... what is your problem seriously... you don't know this guy so you really can't judge him.. you need to be nice and stop being so mean. my point to this forum is that short men are getting a bad rap with women cause most women will not date any man that is shorter than them... and I believe that there is someone for everyone ya know what everyone has different tastes what is good for me might not be good for someone else... thank heavens for that because if we all liked the same things life would be pretty boring... don't you think??

Well, I'm short also so almost any man is as tall or taller than I am. I'm 5'1"; however, I am a "young" senior citizen so I probably wouldn't fit into your friend's age frame.

There should be a thread, Is there anyone out there who would date "young" senior citizens.

That's a "him" issue, not a "them" issue. I know plenty of short-portly gents, either dating or married to top notch women who are taller than them.

Myself I'm only about 5'7" or 8 depending, I have a 6'3" personality though. ;)

HI LORRE!!
Posted: 5/10/2009 3:36:17 PM
I am embarrassed to write this but --- here goes.

I know this sounds crazy, but you and I met at the meet and greet on Saturday. I have been trying to write to you, but your restrictions are blocking me from contacting you. I think that the problem is that when I first joined this website a couple of weeks ago, I made the mistake of responding to a person that was interested in an intimate encounters. Your profile is blocking anyone who attempted to write people who is in search of intimate encounters.

I would really like to communicate with you. Please write me so that I can correspond with you.

Thanks, Bill.

Not very may women like us short guys. But some do, and since some do we have plenty of opportunities to date a nice lady...it is just a matter of finding your match. I see short couples all the time. It is all about being in the right place at the right time and that is usually just to find a date. Dating is hard for just about everyone short or tall. Cheers

If that's what you think, that's what you'll get.

It really doesn't matter what your physical traits are (as long as you're not too extreme one way or the other) , as long as you're confident, clean, and can convey your personality in a positive manner, women will find you attractive.

what gives you the right to judge me?
you are very wrong I am not condescending by all means
we are still best friends
of course he didn't dump me we just agreed to date other people we are just not meant for each other...
I really don't think you are very nice to be so judgmental..
and in reading your profile I'd be surprised if you get anyone to go out with you...to me you sound like the biggest jerk....

Yes there are women that will date short men. I see short males and females married all the time. Every girlfriend I have had has been taller than me...It is a matter of having realistic expectations and asking the right woman.

I haven't found any women on here. And if shorter guys were having better luck in the real world then we wouldn't see so many of them on here.

Every one seems to have at least once perceived limitation, which makes it feel even better when you do find your companion.

Really Bob...Then why does all the research from both academic universities and informal studies done by network news organizations like ABC and CNN prove otherwise? There are not plenty of women out there for the short guy. A great article titled "Women hypocrites for refusing to date short men" by dating expert Steve Penner is a good exmaple of this. If this wasn't such a problem we wouldn't have an organization like the National Organization of Short Statured Adults NOSSA.

^^^Okay, first mistake is to believe more than 2 percent of what anyone in the media or TV says.. #2 My folks are short and they have been happily married for 4o years.
#3. My twin brother is short and is happily married to a taller wife.
#4. One of my best friends is short and is happily married...oh and his folks are short too and married... YOU have to find the right woman, not a bunch of women, just the right one. This perceived notion that us short guys can't find a date is silly... IF that is the case then us short folks would have never been born....oh and I have cousin who is also short and he married a doctor.. all it takes is perseverance...Cheers

bobistheoneforyou says it correctly, it's not the height, it's the perseverance, the effort, the quality that women are falling for.
My brother is short but tons of girls love him, and now he has happily married to a girl who is taller than him and makes many times more money than him, she is pretty & attractive, and we whole family get along very well too!
If the tall guy has no attraction and other qulities above, he ends up like a short guy who has no attraction and the other qualities above.....to be an aloner.

Absolutely I would. This is unusual. I saw a program on 20/20 years ago that was fascinating--and sad. They took this group of actors, all attractive men, some short, some tall. They gave them fake bios. They had them stand in a police-style line-up where women could view them behind a one-way screen. The women were told their bios: basically the short guys were given GREAT bios, such as, "Gino is a doctor/writer/romantic, etc., whereas John (a tall guy) is unemployed, still lives with his mother, just got out of jail", etc. You get the idea. ALL of the women only wanted to go out with the tall guys--even if they seemed to be losers, or have very little going on. And, believe me, ALL the guys were very handsome. It made me sick. I would never reject someone on a height basis! I realized them that I am an anomaly in the world of women. These women treated the short guys like men would treat obesely overweight women! I would love to date ANYONE cool, regardless of height. Open up your options, ladies.
