Jersey Shortie Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I don't have an ideal height..I guess anything over 5'3 is good. Link to post Share on other sites
dreamergrl Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 What... no more pickle/boob/butt threads? I'm just under 5 feet 6 inches .... my ideal man would need to be a few inches taller, at least. I don't like feeling larger then my date Link to post Share on other sites
Birdy Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Normally, 6' to 6'6" is my ideal range, but I'm 5'8" so it's justified. My current BF is 5'10", tops, but he's super-hot so I don't really care. So height is negotiable within reason. I couldn't possibly date anyone shorter than me. Link to post Share on other sites
Lyssa Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I love tall men but never quite dated anyone above 6'0 till I met my fiance - he's 6'4. Link to post Share on other sites
LucreziaBorgia Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 At least a head taller than myself, and I'm 5-8. Link to post Share on other sites
New Again Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm 5'4" I always say I like guys that are 6' but I've only ever dated one guy that tall! So, probably around 5'9"-5'10". Most guys I date are that height. Current guy isn't that much taller than me, and I actually really like not reaching (or him bending) to kiss me. Link to post Share on other sites
Author MSUE Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 My current BF is 6'1 and boy do I love it I can't date anyone shorter than 6'0 I just don't think I can I love how tall and skinny he is and how toned and fat free his body is Link to post Share on other sites
New Again Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I dated one guy who was shorter than I was....felt like I couldn't wear heels, cuz then I'd be even taller than him. Didn't like that at allllll. Of course, part of the turn off could've been that he was kinda crazy Link to post Share on other sites

Trialbyfire Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm just under 5 feet 6 inches .... my ideal man would need to be a few inches taller, at least. I don't like feeling larger then my date It's a primal thing although I can't imagine a guy being shorter than I am at 5'2"+!! And yes, I realize how silly I'm being by stating the following but I prefer taller men, 6' or more. In retrospect, most but not all the men I've dated were around that height. My fiance's 6'3"+ and I love it. He can pick me up like I'm a featherweight and when he wraps those long arms around me, can't explain the feeling. And no, I'm not compensating. I like my height.

bella16 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 He must be taller than I am. I was spoiled with my ex who I was with for 4 years... he was 6'5 and I lovedddd it! He was like my big teddy bear and I could wear any sized high heels while out with him. My current on and off again man is 5'11 which is great. They gotta be taller than me thats all I care about.

A commendable goal, indeed. But you must have done something wrong lately. While your new president is as bad as the last one in terms of policy, people get much less annoyed at him.

So why do women get upset when guys don't want to date fat chicks?This thread is about ideal height. We're not disparaging men who are less than our ideal height, although it's true I won't date a man shorter than me, which in North America, is a near impossibility! Link to post Share on other sites
tigressA Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 My ex is 5'5"; I'm 5'7". He was the first guy I dated who was shorter than me, and he also outweighed me by only 10-15 lbs. At first I didn't mind it but by the time I ended things I couldn't help but see him as a little boy. He was never very assertive to begin with either, so that definitely didn't help. I grew tired of wearing the pants. Now I'm just itching to date taller guys again. Link to post Share on other sites

bluejeanbebe Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Well, if I had a choice, I would say at least 6'0".... my last BF (wow that still smarts) was 6'3" and I was sooooo incredibly attracted to him. I'm 5'3". But, all that being said.... it's not like I would disqualify someone just because he wasn't 6 ft tall. You do really have to look at the whole package. A few years ago, I met a guy thru church sunday school group; we went to the same college, very successful, funny, nice family, total gentlemen, tried ~really~ hard to 'woo' me and just 'got' me basically. Perfect guy to bring home to mom. But, try as I might, I could not find myself attracted to him, even in the slightest, even over time. He was my height, maybe even a little bit shorter. And he reminded me of George from Seinfeld looks-wise, except not balding, and with reddish hair. His 'little' hands kinda freaked me out too. I tried to tell myself, that besides the looks, that i kinda liked him, and maybe that would come in time. I really wanted to like him. But the kicker eventually came, and he ended up being a mean drunk... every time we would have a drink or 2, he would morph into this jerk that treated me disrespectfully, so I had enough.

But hey as long as he's tall... you go girl. he's made his mistakes but he's a great BF and great guy...I believe in second chances and he is in the best behaviour ever and one of the strongest person I've ever met...guess what I'm a recovering cocaine addict that celebrated 7 years of being sober...how about that...does that mean I should be ashamed of myself? nope not at all and as far as his criminal history fun he sold pot when he was in high school...big deal...and he happened to work for a place that evaded taxes and because he was an employee even though he did not benefit financially he got caught up on the mess in fact all emplpoyees innocent or not got nailed and charged with theft by deception...that wasn't really his fault...he was doing his job not knowing what was truly going on...so it is what it is I'm proud of him for getting his ass in rehab voluntarily and doing all the right things he gets tested twice a week and is taking his meds and he is working so hard everyday to support us as I do not work...he deserved that second chance and so did I...
