just read a thing on msn about problems people have with dating people taller/shorter whatever...
so ill leave you with this before i walk out the door to eat (lets hope its not locked before i get home)
would you date a girl whos taller than you? or for the girls of the forum, would you date a guy shorter than you? within range? what range?
frankly, it doesnt make a difference to me, if the girl is taller then thats life, love is love. my girlfriend is the same exact height as me, shes only a little taller in heels

I dont really care. I've been with girls my height or very close, and possibly taller. Currently my gf is substantially shorter than I am.

I have dated people both taller and shorter than me. While I have preferences about peoples' heights generally, height relative to me is not so important.
But short guys are definitely screwed. Well, not - but you get the point.

Within range would be within 2 inches. If she's over two inches taller, forget it.
And I wouldn't be with a girl that was say.. under 5'3. That's just midget status. My girlfriend is 5'4 and i think it's the perfect height for a girl.

A girl would have to be a knockout to be an inch or so taller than me, for me to still go out with her. I prefer to date girls that are considerably shorter than me(4-8").

I've got 7 inches on my girlfriend, and I think that's a bit much, but she wears high heels almost every day, so you don't notice it as much.
But yeah...I don't think I'd date a taller girl...considering they'd have to be above 6', and that's unlikely.

I like really short girls but not too tearibly shorter than me. I'm only 5'6" so a girl in the 5'-5'4" is perfect for me.

I don't think that I could date a girl considerably taller than me. However, it's not something that I generally look at. I'm attracted to long legs, so I guess I'm lucky that I'm not short (I'm 6').

any girl that is atractive enough for me to date her and taller than I am is a swedish super model.
Above 6'3 is to much for Gatyr. As long as I can kiss her without stooping so low I look like a retard, I'm good.

Ehh.. be kind of hard to find many girls over 6'1" that aren't in the WNBA.
But shortness doesn't matter as long as they aren't a "small person"
The girls I took too prom the past 2 years were both 5'2".. almost a full foot shorter then me.

I like women that are a lot taller so when they stand next to me their mammary glands are always in my face.

i'm 5' 5", not done growing yet, but i would rather a girl be equal or shorter than me. it wouldn't make a uge difference, unless she was like 3 inches or higher than me, but a little shorter is preferable.

Im not particularly picky, as long as she doesnt look like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. Then again I'm in a 4 month dry spell so how low I would go as long as nobody I know will ever find out isnt something i like to think about.

I'd date a girl that was taller than I am, as long as it's not an absurd difference.

People that this is an issue for obviously have issues with a meaningful relationship.
My girlfriend is sorter than me by more than 9", and it doesnt bother me or her in the slightest.

it shouldnt matter, but some people see it as awkward to walk into a room with a date whos got like 6-10 inches on them. like i said though, height doesnt really matter to me, so longs theyre not like 4'5..i mean cmon

Height doesn't matter. Even if a girl was 5in taller then me I wouldn't have a problem with it.
My girlfriend is 5'5", I'm 6', neither of us have any issues with it.

ya, but you need initial attraction for a relationship to start in the first place.
I'm 6'3" and I think any girl taller then me would be kinda butch or awkward, so from a completely physical standpoint, no i wouldn't date a girl taller them me.
my gf is 5'10", and thats a perfect height for me imo

I'm 5'4 and my G/F is 5'3 so it's nice.
Though I have dated a girl a foot taller then me, that was pretty awesome, every time I'm going to grab something out of my reach all I say is "ehem... Dwarf here" she would just reach up and grab it, or reach for it.

I recently broke up with a girl who was nearly as tall as me, maybe an inch or so shorter and I'm 6'1".
Height doesn't matter in my mind. I think it could be some what odd at first to date some one like 2 feet shorter, but it can be worked around.

I'm about 5'10", my girlfriend is probably 5'2". I really don't care. If she was taller than me, it wouldn't make a difference either.

Meaningful relationship doesn't mean dating.
For anyone, regardless of maturity, a meaningful relationship is just that, meaningful, and people are more willing to look past certain things.
But when two people are just dating, its like having arm/eye candy for the most part. If I found a woman I loved, it obviously wouldn't matter how tall she is, but physical attraction has its limits.
