My crush prefers petite women, what am I going to do?

Question

I had a massive crush on this white guy for a month now and he is insanely cute. He has a wonderful personality, smart, funny and intelligent. I'm a black girl and so what? Anyways he's 6'0" and I'm 5'10 so I think we make a lovely couple. We've talked before before not much but he doesn't seem interested in me like I'm interested in him. So yesterday as I was about to ask him out, I over heard him saying to his friends that he prefers petite girls and he's not attracted to taller girls. He didn't mentioned me in it but it broke my heart that he don't like taller girls. My crush likes petite women. Every crush I had likes shorter girls. No fair. :(

Well most of the time guys say that like a certain thing, but then they end up being with someone with a different trait which they'll like, he can't just say I like petite women becuz Im pretty sure he'll end up being attracted to a taller girl, which can happen to u. Anyone can say oh i like tall guys and end up with a shorter one and still liking it. Maybe he meant that she should be shorter than him and u are lol.

a lot of the time, when guys say they like petite girls, they actually mean they like really feminine girls. Play up your femininity, and see where it goes. If that doesn't work I would advise you to move on, you'll eventually crush on someone else, even though its not fun, it gives you closure and allows you to continue living your life.

And my boyfriend preferred busty blondes but I'm a brunette with 32B. Don't let it bother you, you'll never know what he really feels about you unless you ask him.

Just because he prefers petite girls, doesn't mean he won't date a taller one

Sorry about how he made you feel. Unfortunately you can't change a guys preferences. But must never forget that you're beautiful you deserve to be with someone who will love you for you and not someone who will make you feel like you should be someone else to make them happy

Didn't take you very long to move on from the love of your life did it? Lol

I'm sorry that you don't seem to be his type, but rest assured, a LOT of guys love tall girls! Just the other day a female friend of mine was rejected for being too short, and said that every guy she goes for, chooses a tall girl with long legs. It's the way life is. We ALL experience not being the type our crush prefers at one time or another.

by the way, there is a reason models are tall. Tall is gorgeous and beautiful and as a 6'5 guy, I'd NEVER date a shortie :P

My boyfriend prefers skinny Asian women. I am chubby and white lol... Dont take him having a type too seriously, it doesn't mean that he isn't attracted to you.  Good luck :-)

You can ask him anyways but if he says no, so what. Then he is just stuck up guy who cares more about body type than personality, and you don't want a guy like that.

Of course you should ask him out anyway. The worst possible outcome is that he says no. At least then you can move on.

You aren't what he wants. Welcome to real life.

Yeah, that's pretty much the preference for most guys.

Have the cartilage removed from your joints and start puking out your food, about the best chance you have. If you won't do that, then find a different guy to crush on.

If he doesn't he doesn't. I don't think you can do anything about that.
