To all females out there: I can see that nowadays, it seems that women are becoming superior in the society. In terms of lovelife and relationships, is it a big deal if your partner is shorten than you are? In turn, for man out there, do you feel inferior if you are shorter than your girlfriend or partner?

I think it would bother me(my husband is 5'6"), so a man would have to be very short to be shorter than me. I am used to everyone being taller than me so I think I would find it wierd. I don't know if I would feel differently about it if I was a tall person or not.

Well crap, I must have deleted part of my sentence somehow, let me repost that: I think it would bother me, I am only 5 feet tall(my husband is 5'6"), so a man would have to be very short to be shorter than me. I am used to everyone being taller than me so I think I would find it wierd. I don't know if I would feel differently about it if I was a tall person or not.

i dont have a boyfriend right now,i sort of had a huge crush on this guy once and i was a bit taller than him, so i guess if i really liked his personality that much height wouldnt matter to me, it could count during my fantasies, but in reality i could deal with it.

I don't think it's a problem But I'll be honest with you, before start dating, I usually looked at guys who were taller than me Of course many guys who are shorters are handsome, but it's something that I always made since I was a teenager, I've only looked at guys who are taller I'm 1,72m and my boyfriend is 1,83m

Yes,I do mind.In fact,I would never choose a man who is shorter than me as my boyfriend.To be frank,I am only about 158cm tall so I would find someone pertty taller than me.And my boyfriend turns out to be 171 cm tall.So I am ok with his height.I suppose most girls would think like that. What do you think?

Would depend on how short. I'm 5'9", so down to say 5'6" is okay, any shorter and I don't think I'd go there. My honey now is at least an inch or two shorter than I am.

I don't mind someone shorter than me, but it is hard to find seeing I am only 5'-1-1/2" tall myself. Lol ! But I rarely think anyone is shorter than me but I would not feel slighted if my other was a little shorter.

Hi maean_19! I wouldn't mind at all really as long as I can see that he is doing his best and really seeing that he is determined to achieve whatever he wanted to achieve. What is more important to me is he loves and cares for me faithfully and genuinely and we respect and trust each other. My hubby and I have different careers, but we complement each other and not compete with each other of who has the one with more achievements or the one with more earnings. Well, this is just me speaking my mind out loud.Haha...Have a nice day and take care.

I find that I have never been attracted to shorter guys. I have guy friends that are perfect and shorter but I have never felt an attraction to them because of their height. My fiance is taller than me! I am also not attracted to a guy too skinny he has to have a little bit of muscle!
