Do you consider the height of a person before falling in love? Luckly,i am just 4inch shorter than my partner. But tell me, has it ever occured to you. When you look at a person you are attracted to, does your subconsious mind consider the height too with other thing in mind ofcourse,lol! I think we all do, its just that we dont register it in our head, since it is at the back of our mind. What do you have to say, do you agree with me OR Do you say Love is Blind and it dosnt see anything. THINK!!

I've never chosen to fall in love with someone before, but I do think that height probably plays a big part in how attractive you find someone. Knowing it and considering it are a bit different. I always thought I preferred taller men, but the man I've been with is short (and only 2" taller than I am) and I've never been attracted to anyone as much as I am to him.

I've never fell for anyone who was smaller than me but I'm only 5ft so I don't think I'd like to be with someone smaller than me =)

Well, see you did consider height some where in you head though you did not actually decide or gave a direct thought about it. There are people shorter than you too. but life dosent end there, right? have fun and happy searching :)

I don't consider anything to do with a person's looks at all, when I am attracted to someone. For me it is about what the person is like on the inside that attracts me.

Its the inside that remains forever, the outside(appearences) changes. You have the perfect choice.

i share the same height as you do! Just an inch taller, i guess most of the people fall under this height category.

The heart doesn't see height or even weight. It judges things based on a different criteria. I am happy to hear that you have found a love that accepts you and you can accept without such trivial concerns. Yes, Love is Blind. It is deaf and does not hear harsh words or believe false rumors and lies. Be well! Have a blessed day!

When I was young and foolish, I wanted a man who would be taller than me and enfold me, I looked upon a man's size as protection and his dominance took away my responsibility for my own actions. But I ended up making a bad marriage with a man just slightly taller than me (about 1 inch taller). So height doesn't matter. Love was blind and I've learned that Love should open its eyes!!!! I'm 54 now and I've learned that physical attributes don't matter unless they're extreme, because extreme signals emotional insecurity and mental disorders. There is an old American song that says "if you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife" which is good advice for males or females. Average is usually the best--they have to work harder, develop their personality and character and are more interesting than better looking people.

i dont consider it too much but in modern day society these factors matter a husband should be taller and his wife a tad shorter and i have never experienced it so no comments on it
