I'm short. I've never had any problems. Love yourself. It's all about confidence.


Confidence is key.

I'll admit that I notice tall men & it works for intial attraction, but I would certainly by pass a tall man that was uncompatable for a shorter man that has the qualities that are important to me. I am a big gal & I sometimes feel awkward next to smaller men, but that's my problem, not thiers. I find that once you talk to someone & get comfortable with them, things like that just don't matter.

I didn't have a problem with height at all, but then I went on dates with about 3 guys who were my height (5'6) and maybe a little shorter.
All 3 of them had the whole Napoleon Complex BIG TIME and it's now made me pay attention to height, where I never did in the past.

I'm 6'2 and my problem is that I seem to be finding shorter and shorter women. My first wife (whom I never should have married) is 5'10, my second wife, (who died of breast cancer much too young) was 5'5, my current wife (who I am trying to reconcile with) is 5'1. I'm hoping I can save my marriage or I may end up with a pygmy the next time.

It's all about preference. Some women prefer a man above 6 ft tall. Does that make them shallow? No it does not. I get sick of people calling others names like that because that is what they prefer.

I prefer a man over 5'8. I am 5'3 and I like em a bit taller than myself.:banana: Because that is my PREFERENCE.


That broke my heart Kitten

Now we can never be :cry: sad sad

laugh :wink: flowerforyou

The whole Napoleon complex as opposed to partial Napoleon complex?

All these years, I thought it was the shoe size....

I'm kinda short, and my shoe size is pretty small...but I've never had any complaints about anything regarding either laugh :wink:

Chalk it up to pure shallowness on their part, and it isn't even limited to short dudes, either-

I'm 6'8" tall, and all I get is asked "how the weather is up there" and crap. I've been striking a big goose-egg on the dating front for as long as I can remember.


I am only 5'3" and I happen to be very attracted to big and tall men. Don't know why, they just really turn me on.

I, personally, have dated a few short men and every one of them was self-centered, controlling, insecure and had a mean streak. That just tells me I had poor taste in men at the time.

But there are a heck of a lot of men in this world, and I can't judge all men based on a few bad ones.

Size isn't everything! But a lot of people have preferences.

I've never limited myself in terms of fat or thin, both of those are fine and it is the person that counts.

But I do restrict myself in height. I want to walk in the street holding hands - if she's too short, or too tall we cannot do that comfortably.

Same when snuggling on a sofa, or spooning. If a person is too tall or too short they just don't fit properly.

I don't think it is shallow to have a distinct preference, and I'm equally sure that I'd get ruled out by others for various reasons (e.g. I smoke, or I shave my head.)

With the right person none of that matters ..
