May 19, 2010 5:50am CST
HEll0 dear friends! Today I saw a guy which girlfriend was about 10-15 cm taller than he is, and I wondered would I fall in love with a girl who is taller than me!? So my questions now are- has height something to do with love and would you guys fall in love with a girl who is taller than you, or you girls- would you fall in love with a lower guy?

Shorter or taller sweetie, doesn't matter at all. Love is love and no way it cares about such small things. TATA.

I do not think so. I am tall and my wife is close to my height and I do not see any connection of height. It looks good if wife/girlfriend is not taller then you but it’s ok even if she is taller than me.

yes, for me there is also no connection between being tall and being in love, because tehy both are completely different and I think that we must not reject love just because we are smaller than someone!

yeah, you are so right Powered by Phoenix8606

no, i don't believe height has something to do with love. it doesn't really matter, just like age gap. i could fall in love with a taller girl but it doesn't mean that it is because she is but because of her total being.

that's what i think about women, they mostly look for taller guys and reject the lower. but for men, it's fine, whether she's taller or smaller than him.

yes, it doesn't have. well, I also guess that there is no problem for men to fall in love with a taller girl and stay with her, but I guess it will be a problem for the most of the girls just because they are looking for some taller guys and often they just reject the lower ones!

yeah, for me too!

Normally, girls like guys that are taller than them. But it may change gradually depending on the chemistry of the two. Maybe its possible :)

yeah, Iknow that the most of the girls like taler boys, and that's why I decided to ask you, what do you think and prefer, because I know many people( mostly guys) who have rejected their love just because they were and guess still are lower than the girls they liked!

thank you, you are so kind!

For me, I like tall men. I am 5'4" or so and my husband is around 6' tall. Most of my boyfriends over the years have been around 6 ft tall. I think height can be sexy, but of course the man needs to be lovely too with a good personality.

well, is that that he is taller and can reach higher the best part of it :) I also think that guys should be taller than girls just because they are guys- the stronger one, but in love it reallly doesn't matter because love is the most precious of all feelings!

It say that all are equals when it comes to love and everyone deserve to be treated and love the way the two people find comfort with each other. the attitudes is the best things to prioritize when selecting a partner though it add even to the zest of a relationship both partner have equal likes or dislikes and even have closer resemblance it terms of their body weight and height. Though, at the end it is the loyalty, trust and respect which won in all aspects and the physical is just an added bonus to consider. Although, most of the people are superficial but sooner or later those fancy features would fade and the matter is to find a better companion that understand and love each others truthfully would be the one to stay at last.

yes, I also think that all these things are actually much more important and play a bigger role than the height and the look, because they aren't something spiritual, they are just physical features that some people have more some have less, but they are something so small in front of love and other spiritual feeling!

My husband is actually close to the same height as I am and now that I think back about, all of the other guys that I dated before I met Tom were close to my same height except for one guy that I briefly dated. Now, I am not a tall woman, in fact when I think on the grand scheme of things, I am pretty short. However, for whatever reason, all of the people that I have ever been attracted to are close to the same height as myself.

so as i see height doesn't matter for you. that's really good, because as many people say and we all know it- the love is blind. when you're in love with someone you don't care about their height or weight, you just feel that you love that person and nothing else matters to you.

well, I don't think it really has, just because love is a feeling, the most precious one and height is something more "material" and not that spiritual at all! that's why I think it has nothing to do with it and I wont to compare them both, because it really doesn't worth!

I am a very petite woman, so the chances of me dating a shorter man would be unlikely. However, I have dated men that would be considered short by most people's standards. I really don't think it should matter, the important thing is that the couple cares for each other. I'd hate to think someone would not enter into a relationship with me based solely on my petite stature, I would consider that very shallow.

hell0 there! well, petite women are actually very sexy, at least to me, and I even like them more than the taller ones, because they look so cute and lovely. so that's why don't think that someone will reject you, because of your "size"- you wont meet such a guy. however I also think that love must not be compared with things like height and so on!

No would be the correct answer. But for me.. it would be a first impression barrier.

I guess it is because of egoism.. perhaps.. but nonetheless I only go for girls that I get to know personally. So first impression to me isn't really that a big deal.

Hi phoenix,i suppose love does have something to do with feeling.If i like the guy i certainly won't mind his height.But honestly,my request is that i'm not a tall girl and i don't think it is too suitable for us if he is lower than me too much.Anyway,love does not has something to do with height,i have some friends whose bf is lower than them,but they still very happy when they are together!

Hi phoenix, height has never mattered to me. I have dated guys both shorter and taller than I am and not given it a thought. In fact, looks don't even matter to me. It's always been a guys personality rather than physical features that draw me in. If there is any physical feature that I pay attention to it'd be the eyes and even then, it is because you can tell so much about a person by their eyes.

hell0 Sid! wow, there are not many girls/women like you nowadays, because the most of them always search for something in the physical attraction and don't pay much attention to things like eyes or personality. it is really nice to know taht there are still nice women like you, and that makes me really happy!

I do not think that height has anything to do with love. I believe that love comes from the heart (well, technically the brain sending messages and hormones and other things to the rest of the body, but to make it simpler we shall just use the romantic version of the heart), and therefore looks do not really matter but what is inside the person is the most important. However, if you are talking about the initial physical attraction that draws you to a person, then yes, it matters to some people, but I am not one of them. Besides, if you meet someone in a bar or restaurant and they are sitting down, you have a wonderful conversation that lasts the entire evening, you get along great and think that this person is really cute/handsome/beautiful and they have other qualities that attract you are you really going to throw all that away if they stand up and are taller or shorter than you? That seems quite silly to me, but that is just my opinion.

yes, I also think it is silly to compare these two things, because love is as you say a feeling, the most wonderful one that we can ever experienced, and height is something that makes people more attractive or may not. But no matter if the person is taller or lower, if we love him/her then we should not reject our love, because of some rumors or something that we jhave heard from other people!

The only way I think height would matter is the initial attraction. If the person is too tall or too short, you might not be interested in getting to know them better. Once you know them then it would depend more on the personality. Some women only find men that are very tall attractive and some men are only attracted to women who are shorter than they are. I always seemed to fall for the guys that were just as tall or a little bit taller than I am.

hell0 there! well, guess that you are rigth- there are really many women who prefer the taler guys and never date with a lower or with a guy with the same height. but tehre are also some boys.men who prefer and search for tall women, even taller than they themselves are :) yeah, the height plays some role only in initial attraction and onec we have known the people, we don't care about it anymore!

If someone asks me, I will say that I don't care about the height. But honestly, I would like to find a guy a little taller than me, it looks comfortable, doesn't it? But we should not set up a too high standard, some girls only like guys who are taller than 1.80m, a lower standard can make us have more choices~

yeah, maybe you are right- the lower standards give us more choice :) I guess that I would be a lucky guy if the most of the girls have lower standards
