I am 5'4 and some girls seem to avoid dating me because of my height. Girls, would you date a guy shorter or same height?
Would you date a shorter guy? Deal breaker?
I'm 5'5 and struggle with finding attraction to shorter guys, honestly. Mainly because I'm a huge fan of heels and I feel it almost de-masculates my man when I'm hovering over him or when I have to be the one to lean down to kiss him. Not mentioning that most shorter guys are of lighter weight so I feel kind of big sitting on their lap and doing other things.. Like I can't be completely comfortable without having a hint of insecurity coming out. This is not a clear deal breaker for me though. I did date a guy who was 5'7. Any shorter than me though may not be something I would look into. It all depends on how much the man and I click and if he has "short man syndrome" or not.

I like guys who is at least few inches taller than me. Not because i dont like shorter guys, my ex was shorter and he was insecure about it, and had a hard time to convince him appearance doesn't matter to me. No girl can deal with an insecure guy. Whether you are short or tall, just be confident. In your girl's eyes, you will be the perfect guy.

I'm 5'1 so I don't typically have a problem with guys being shorter than me. However, because of your age range, I'd say there's probably a good chance your still growing! If not though I wouldn't worry I know a lot of people who would date a guy at 5'4.
5'5 something and 5'6 with shoes.
cons- a lot of people are taller then you, some wouldwife/10's are taller then 5'6, along with looking younger then my age (18) being short doesn't help need to pick a height limit unless you don't mind a girl being 34324332423 inches taller then you, if you choose a height limit gives you a range of girls to pick from instead of just all of them.
pros- fill out faster, look bigger then what you are

The more you care, the less success you have.
Just go for short girls. If they don't like you, who cares? Life is short and utterly meaningless so why not try to enjoy it while you still can?

I've dated a shorter guy before. I stuck it out although there was a huge noticeability that I was quite taller. I did mind at first eventually I got over it.

Height really makes no difference to me.
My ex-boyfriend was shorter than me. He was still strong enough to carry me though :)
Although I think a lot of girls prefer taller guys. -
I perfer taller guys but most guys are taller than me anyways I'm 5'1 so I'm pretty short and my mom is only 5'3 my dad is the normal height.

I'm short so id rather a guy to be taller because it's hard to be shorter than me but personality beats height any day

I'd date same height or slightly shorter, but I'd prefer much taller.

I'm 5'3-5'4. I don't care about a guys height as long as he isn't noticeably shorter than me.

I don't think I could date a 'shorter' guy, but Im a bitch anyways, so it's really my loss.
But here is lots of girls who are 5'4 or shorter, and a lot of girls would date someone shorter than them :) -
