Comments are open to both genders, so let me know what you think about this whole situation of a tall-girl + a short guy dating.
Personally, I wouldn’t date someone shorter than me since I’m already quite short (5’2), but the shortest guy I would date is 5’6. I would have no problem dating someone shorter if I was taller, like around 5’8 or something.
Zendaya and Tom make a great couple and zendaya is taller in the relationship. If you’re worried about people making snarky remarks behind your back, or the relationship turning weird because they’re taller… forget about all those. These people who talk about your relationship behind your back are not worth it. If you really like this person and do not mind the height difference, go out with them.

I have always dated tall women. They didn't seem to mind at all. I think tall women realize that a good man will always be tall in the way they handle themselves and the confidence they show.
Personality is important so there is no limit to how short he can be before I will not date him. I think women like tall guys because they look more dominant, but I do not need a dominant guy, only one who is nice and loyal.
I’m already too short. At 4’11, I don’t think I want to date a baby 😑
Most of them won't, even the ones that claim that they will. If they seriously would, why are there almost no girls with shorter guys long term?
Go out in public around holiday time to see the long term couples and count how many couples have a taller guy vs how many have a taller woman in the relationship.
And the ones that tried it, they left because it bothered them. They may use something else for an excuse, but they won't be with a shorter guy for long term. It is very rare.
No, they would not. 96% of straight women would NOT date a same height or shorter guy (and 50% of straight women don't even want to date short-but-taller men in general, like 5'8"-5'11" or shorter).
But lots of women love to LIE on the internet, because heaven forbid a woman make herself look bad or tell the truth. But all of us men KNOW reality and know just how many short men end up in happy relationships (maybe 5% at best).
In all honesty I would like to say there's a limit but if I loved the guy he can super short I'd still date him and also In about 1 year if I'm still the same height I'll be official considered a dwarf so I don't care but I don't truly have a limit though in all honesty I would like it if he were taller than me but if not oh well I guess.
A guy should be taller, I prefer short girls, but I might not have much of a choice, because tall girls tend to show more interest in me than short girls, I am not sure why.
Totally. The only issue with shorter guys is that more often than not they’re actually the ones who have a problem with the height difference (in my experience)
I’ve been on a few dates with guys my height and they all were off about it!
They just act intimidated and weak about it in my opinion. They all want a super tiny girl themselves lol.
Otherwise if men weren’t like that then sure! I’m rather all about how a man makes me feel.I am only 5'1-1/2". So you might ask me who do I look up to? And I would have to say EVERYONE!!! 🙂
Since I am not taller I guess I can't answer your question.
But if I was taller I would say no more than 3" shorter.I’m 5’3” I’ll date my height or taller. I have dated shorter but he made his height his personality and acted like a victim all the time it was very off putting.
My cousin, who's 5'7", was once married, and has two kids. He's now dating another woman, who has three kids of her own
I'm not really a fan of him right now though, or her.
I'm 5'8", so, if a shorter person than me, can find love, I'm pretty sure any man can
I'm already short as is, so I would kind of prefer to be with someone a little taller than me, doesn't have to be a wide stretch lmao.. I think anywhere between 5'4-6'1 is fine, I guess. I usually don't even really pay attention to it unless the difference is super obvious (like 5'3 and 5'9 or 5'11) because I'm so invested in the person I could care less.
I'm 5'4'.5''. I would date a guy the same height as me but I would not date anyone shorter. Same with guys, its very difficult to find a guy who would want to date a girl taller than him.
Wow... 82% of the respondents said 'No'... is there any doubt that women are becoming more and more selective (read:picky) in their relationships? I think this is absolutely fantastic.
No I wouldn’t, suddenly become a lot less attractive if they are shorter than me
I'm 1,76 meter tall and I think I can date those about 168 tall
Now? No. But when I was younger there was this man that was probably an inch shorter than me that I really liked
I am 5 foot 8, I prefer someone my height or taller..
i would date 4'6 ish im 4'11 ish so not much difference
Subtract 4 inches from your height and that’s the girl height for you.
