Height differences in a relationship

What do you reckon? Is it important for girls that the guy is taller/shorter/same as them? or are you not really fussed? :smile:

not really fussed, the only thing I would not be able to stand is if I were Nicole's height and had a bf the height of Tom Cruise.

most of my b/fs have been a lil shorter than me or just about the same height. It's no big deal really.

I like a guy taller than me (after all i'm only 5"3!) but not too much taller, otherwise i have to crane my neck to kiss them and it aches after a while. My friend pointed out the other day that i go for shortish guys, i reckon this is just because i'm quite short and its difficult kissing someone whos tall!

I'd prefer a guy slightly taller than me (I'm 5'8) but really if the guy is ya know really hot then I can overlook these things.

No more than 2 inches shorter than me - i don't have the luxury of only going for guys who are taller than me - I'm 5'10 :frown:

i'm 5'7, and to be honest i prefer guys who are taller than me, but it's not a deciding factor.

Bekaboo - I have exactly the same problem as you, I'm 5'10, and guys just don't seem to grow enough!

An inch or two shorter is ok, I can stand that.

Hehe exactly
If you can be the same height as them by slouching or spreading your legs (!) then that's ok
But i'm not getting neck ache!!

not really fussed

Okay you win
Although i did always want to be 6 foot just so i could be " a 6 foot blonde" - bit of a cliche hehe. 5'10 just doesn't seem to cut it :p:

Lol.. I guess I'm a 6' blonde, I'd much rather be 5'10 though! There are so many guys that I'm just a little bit too tall for (not my opinion, by the way - Tall Girls Soc rules!) x

my boyfriend is a couple of inches shorter than me, maybe three (i'm 5'8). most of the time i don't notice it at all, because i'm so enchanted by his cute wee nose and his hott blue eyes and so forth.

i know a 5'5ish man who went out with a 6'1 lady, and they were very happy. in fact they had a baby. then they split up. but it wasn't because of the height difference.
