[someone else asked this question pretty recently]
My husband is about 3 inches shorter than me (I'm about 6'2", he's about 5'11").
I am an inveterate shoe whore -- girl we're talking 5-6" heels EVERYWHERE, with the gym as pretty much the sole exception -- so, in public he's normally more like 8" shorter than me.
Doesn't matter even a tiny fraction of a shadow of a shit. Next to that boy, I feel like a teeny tiny little bitty little girl.
We've been together for the better part of 17 years, married more than 15, and I can't remember anyone so much as casting a derogatory glance in our direction, much less actually daring to say anything aloud.

I mean... If this is YOUR situation? If you're the tall girl, and you feel "weird" being with a guy who's shorter than you?
Instead of looking at the doom-and-gloom side of this, look at the bright side.
A shorter woman might be stuck with a man who's insecure about stupid shit, and not know it for months... even years.
She may not discover that insecurity until she's already invested her emotions, and mb even her life, in him.
Girl you and me? All we have to do is... stand next to the dude, in some heels.

Poor short girls, they have to actually spend time to get to *know* the boy before they make these terrible discoveries about him.
That's a "W" for us skyscraper chicks.

Oh, and, last but not least -- I like very dominant men. And, if I get that from a man who's shorter than me, I know it's *authentic* dominance.
If you're interested, there's a cool conversation about that in my opinion thread here:
www.girlsaskguys.com/.../q2051586-my-girlfriend-i-got-into-a-fight-over-whether-guys-prefer-short
Kinda long, and there's four or five of us in there, but it's a cool conversation. Check it out
I had a guy leave me because of that, even tho i was ok with it. I'm 5"9 and he was 5"7... so not much, but i think it affected him that i was taller. Guys and their ego's... urgh... sigh
I'm 5'7" and love heels. I hope guys can handle that.
No, it wouldn't bother me at all, as long as it doesn't bother her! :)
I know for a fact that tons of guys like women who are taller (or shorter, or the same height for that matter lol). A woman can be pretty at any height, after all.
But some guys would not be with taller girls just because they're afraid of the weird looks or ridicule they'd get from others for being shorter; this kind of guy is not worth your time if he's going to base his relationship choices on what other people think so much.
BUT, a LOT of other guys are only wary of taller girls simply because a lot of girls are not attracted to shorter guys, or even think less of shorter guys. So in this case, you just have to show that you're attracted to him and totally into him, and then he'll feel better, feel flattered, and be more comfortable being with you. :)
I'm 5'6" and casually dating a 5'9" girl and she's amazing wouldn't change a thing. Am I self-conscious about my own height? Yes, but not about hers. Honestly, you'd have to be about 5'11" without heels before I cared, and that still wouldn't stop me from dating someone I liked.
I tend to only notice my height when other people do, so just forget about the whole damn thing.

Bad in h's I was the only guy willing to hang out with girls taller than he was, aside from the really short guys who had no choice... I was fairly tall and these girls normally could only get attention fro basketball players so they appreciated y attention.
I'm surprised you'd even do that.
I'm 5'11" so it's not common for me to come across a girl who is taller than me, although of course it happens. I prefer short women (around 5'1"), but I'd still date someone who was like 6'1". That wouldn't stop me from liking them.
It probably would, yes.
With that said, one can't really chose for whom he falls... one thing is attraction, but when the ship hits the feelings iceberg.. nothing else to do but embrace it.
I'm literally about 5'4.
As long as they're not taller than 5'7/8 I honestly don't care. I'm talking to a gorgeous girl who's 5'8 and she couldn't care less about my height.. She said it herself and she's really into me :')
Personally I wouldn't care, but I guess in general guys don't really like it when their girl is taller than them
This question seems to come up very often here, But I love tall girls and not only does it not bother me but it turns me on!
That is fine, guys are mostly afraid that girls won't like them if they are short.
Not at all. A lot of the girls i come across daily are taller than me.
I am comfortable in it. In fact I must go for a taller girlfriend.
No, I prefer it when they're taller than me; I find it way more attractive than them being shorter than me.
Nope.
I'm 6'5", sooooo...
nope
Wouldn't bother me
No im not short lol
A little.
Tall chicks are hott
