Question

Height isn't everything. But it still would be interesting to know your opinion

height isn’t such a big deal for me but i would prefer it if the guy was taller than me. a guy being at least 5 inches taller than me is fine considering the fact that i’m short lol

When you're at the chin or below

JackSmy · Answer

Ideal is just what we share, and when we like each other!! I don't expect anything, or think anything need be, but when I meet her, and we connect, and like each other, I don't worry if she is taller, or shorter, or delightfully soft and cuddly (some might say other things) but it's what we share, and I don't care what others think!

I have a preference between 6 & 12 inches. Right around the 1 foot difference is where I'd say it gets slightly awkward, but it's hardly noticeable for me.

I'm 5'11"
I've dated from 4'11" to 5'2"
My preference is leaning towards the 5'3" to 5'5" range now, so I could've said 6 or 9 inches, but 9 is more accurate

I like being towered over in a relationship. It kinda makes me feel safer, like he will protect me no matter what. I dated a guy who was 6' 2" and I am 5' 6" and I loved it when he would have to look way down to see me. :)

SkyRez · Answer

😂 the spread here is hilarious, and quite telling.

Personally I'm 6 foot, and thus, even if I wanted a taller girl, not gonna happen. I think the ideal is so that an embrace puts her head right below my chin, so about a head shorter.

MrTuxedo · Answer

As a 6'7 guy, I dated girls who are a lot of shorter than me. I was always at least 10 inches taller than the girl. But I would think that something perfect would be around 6 or 7 inches.

Hurlyburly · Answer

I'd say 10-15cm (4-6 inches), neither too much nor too little. A height difference like in the picture you presented looks more like a father and a little child rather than a couple.

ShortCircuit · Answer

I'd say about 6 inches, so when they hug, the guy can comfortably rest his chin on the top of the girl's head--but they can still kiss without anyone needing to stand on their toes or bend down.

Kurαȷ · Answer

That's up to the people who are involved together. I personally don't like any height difference between me and my partner, ideally, they would be about as tall as me.

thenewgirlll · Answer

I’m 5ft7 so I would say 3 more inches is perfect :)

Shiver · Answer

I'm only a little bit taller (maybe a few cm) than my girlfriend, which is perfect for both of us. I'm only around 174cm, so we're both pretty short. Lol

emmily2396 · Answer

Ideally between 10-20 cm taller than me. So a guy between 177-187 cm.

coka10 · Answer

The bigger the height difference the better! But at the same time, it's not that important :') slightly taller is fine for me

Avicenna · Answer

Ideally, exactly the same. But love tall women, so...

Kayla45 · Answer

Women on average are shorter than the average man, this isn't exactly new information..

producer · Answer

I think the height difference in that picture is too much but I want my girl to be at least a bit below my shoulders, or at it. Which is fine if she isn't but yeah

Anonymous · Answer

one like = one heart for all the short guys out there

JamesDiaz11 · Answer

I say nine inches, since that's the height difference me and my current girlfriend are at.

kales96 · Answer

I’m 5’4, so I kinda want a man who is a bit taller then I am

nopedydoo · Answer

3-9in would be ideal. im 5 4 so really id be fine with a guy who was 5 7 - 6 1

KennyMcCormick · Answer

I'd say somewhere between 5 and 8 inches. I'm 5'8 and girls that are 5'0-5'3 work best for me but if they're a couple inches shorter or taller than that is fine too
