I’m 5’7. If it mattered to me, I’d have to date short girls (5’5 or smaller) I could not limit myself to that. If the right woman for me comes along and she’s 5’5, peachy. If she’s 6’0, wonderful.
It seems like a bigger issue to the women than to me. “I want to feel protected, feminine, etc” now, most of these girls are at least 5’8, so they think they have to go 6’0, which cuts out the good short guys. Then the girls who are short want the same things (“I don’t want short babies!”)
But, past lifts, I can’t control height, but can control other things, so I just have to work on those and hope to meet someone that either doesn’t make an issue, or someone small enough to where 5’7 is tall.
I'm not tall tall or anything but 5'10" so that lets me date pretty tall girls like around my height but tbh I am not sexually attracted to women closer to my height, I've never been in a relationship with a woman more than 5'2" was the tallest. Id hooked up with taller girls but not more than maybe 5'6" and tbh it wasn't as sexually interesting for me.

Why is it more sexually interesting with a short women?
Short girls are SO FREAKING CUTE! That feeling when you look at a baby bunny rabbit or an adorable puppy or a kitten sitting in a toy train going down the tracks (omg <3)... that is what I feel when I am with a petite girl. I just don't get that with a taller girl.
First of all, no one can take a tall guy away from you if he doesn't like dating short girls. Many tall guys themselves love short women too.
Secondly, yes there are short girls dating tall guys but I'm sure there are plenty left for you too.
Thirdly, it is not necessary for a guy to be taller than the girl in a relationship. This is a baseless standard that we need to get rid of in the twenty first century. I'm short but if I was tall I wouldn't mind short guys. I'm marrying the person not his height. 5'4" or 6'4", if he is my man I am gonna love him with all my heart.
Don't lose hope and I wish you can find the right kinds guy for you! :)
I loved what you wrote and i completely agree ❤️ i myself is only a 5,8 norwegian guy, i dont even know what is considered tall anymore because so many other norwegians are Fucking taller than me xc but tall or short doesn't matter 😊 love is love 😍
With all due respect, please do not be salty about this, it will give all the tall women a bad name.
Because there are sooooooooooooo many tall girls and women out there (Insert sarcasm)
As a lady who is 6'4" it is rare to find tall guys who are single or who don't feel intimidated by tall women, plus i think it more of an manly feel to have a girl shorter than them because it boosts their confidence and what girl doesn't love a tall guy?
I would be more worried if i guy likes / loves me instead of the height difference, Oh that's right i'm 6'4" and I'm married to a guy who is about 5'11" and he loves this tall girl and we are happy.
Most women are short geographically speaking. It's a numbers game.

Lol girl, you're crazy. No one is supposed to save anyone for anybody else. The tall men that love short women may not even want you. I know tall men who only date tall women. Theyre not the majority because they dont want to be. You shouldn't blame women for that. We should all date who we want and who likes us back.
Im average height - 5'4.5'' and I looooove tall men. I go for what I find attractive and so do they.
You dont HAVE to date tall men. You could date short men. there's nothing that says you can't. Your credit won't drop and you won't lose your job. You should assess your own preferences before trying to control someone else's. Short men and tall women could get over themselves and date one another too. No one stops them from doing so except themselves.
But to answer your question, its a masculine/feminine thing. For centuries our societies have conditioned us all to believe the man should be taller, tall men are more masculine, etc. However, if you have even a sliver of attraction to dominance/submission themes, having this tall giant of a man tower over you may make you tingly as a shorter girl, if you know what I mean. Its just hot. Also, tall men look different. Society has glamorized the tall man and so we are attracted to the way a tall mans body and proportions look. So I suppose we are more attracted to the overall look of tall men and how it feels when we're with them. I assume its the same with tall men.
But I've known plenty of tall men dating tall women or who prefer them. I won't say thats a majority but it happens a lot. I hate a crush on this one guy and he wasn't into me at all. He was about 6'4'', which is similar to a couple of my exes, love that 6' - 6'5 height range. His girlfriend was 6'0. she's now one of my good friends too. Life is great, focus on yourself and getting to know more people so you can find your match.

And considering the significant height difference on average in America, its a logical expectation that far more short women will be with men notably taller. You could move to a bug metro city. In NYC, many of the tall women are models and men like that too. Dont be afraid to shine!
I want the short ones pls. Cute af especially if naturally submissive and means I can physically pick her up and toss her around when we're... Being playful.
Aaaand you can wear giant heels and I'm still taller & tilting your face up. It's cute.
And I said before here, you take the girl, keep the amount of pretty in her the same, and shrink her, and she gets more pretty per square inch of girl. More concentrated pretty for me to look at.
I'm sorry I'm leaving the taller girls out there but there's only so much of me to go around :(
The average height for men in the USA is 5' 9". The average height for women in the USA is 5' 3". There's no grand scheme or unique attraction to short girls, and It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that this is the case (especially when you consider that girls tend to gravitate towards men who are taller than they are). Ask yourself "If on average women are 6 inches shorter than men, how could men possibly date women near their height?" There aren't enough tall women for each tall guy. We don't have much of a choice at the end of the day. I'm 6' 6" and if I refused to date a girl under 6' tall I'd be single forever.
Do you really think short girls are thinking in the back of their head not to date a tall guy because there are lonesome tall girls out there? Hahaha that won’t happen. If a tall handsome man hits on a shorter girl, do you really think she will pass up the chance?, That Tall people should date tall and short people should date short? I don’t think so, that’s like saying date your same hair color only. Lol A Tall man is the majority ideal. But you could try dating a shorter guy and stop being so shallow. I don't know if you ever tried dating someone shorter. I have, and let me tell you, they make up a lot for the lack of a height because they know you want them to be taller. I totally understand the pleasure of dating someone taller than you, especially when in heels. Guys typically like to be taller than there woman and short guys don’t get much of a chance. Maybe short girls have a daddy complex lol who knows. Good luck finding your loving tall handsome man!
Cause they HATE SHORT GUYS and tall girls and force them to get together even though most guys/ girls DO NOT WANT that combination! 😣
Lol, I don't know. But it's annoying sometimes.. I guess it's probably because they're taller than all the girls so they just date whoever, and half the time it's a short girl (also shorter girls are *generally seen as more attractive because guys like to be taller). But short guys have much fewer girls who are shorter than them, so even though the tall guys aren't doing anything intentionally, they take from that group of girls as well as the group overall. So ya.. I don't know. That's a guess.
Haaha😁 I'm 5'9 (175cm), taller than most girls here, and some average-height guys. My boyfriend, I've never asked him, but I'd say he's around 165-168cm, if I had to guess.
@Cheetah23 So, 168 cm = 5 foot 6 inches on the tall end of the range you gave. Yeah, that's a significant difference from you - about 7-8 cm. That's wonderful. I hope he appreciates you and your willingness to date him. I am glad that you appreciate him too.
@Lillian33481 I'm 5'9, & my shorter boyfriend of roughly 5'5 can lift me easily with decently (not even ripped) toned arms. Do you have any other excuse you'd like to try to use?
@Cheetah23 both height and weight will be a factor. I use to be open about dating a shorter guy but they can't handle me plus they also admit that it's awkward looking. I was told by a guy ur boyfriend height that I'm too tall
@Lillian33481 Why cam't he handle you? Remember: being an immature idiiot does not belong to any single sex or height. If a short-than-you guy can't handle it, that's his problem not yours but that's not an indictment on all short guys since many or most of us can handle being shorter than our women.
@Lillian33481 I am 5 foot 5.5 in. I used to be five foot seven but I shrink with age according to the doctors. However my height never bothered me dating at least I don't think it did I never had an attitude problem with it.
@Jamie05rhs Yes. In other words my height never bothered me or upset me in life. I still got girls and didn't have problems at school or jobs. I never had a Napolean complex.
Because all girls like the tallest man they can get, even if she is 4'8" you know she expect hin to be 5'9 or taller. As for why men date short girls it's probably because being bigger than his partner can make a man feel stronger and more dominant.
Why do you need a man taller than you though? Same reason short girls want a really tall guy, to feel more smaller and more feminine.
Lol when the height difference is so bit it makes them look like father/mother and child it just makes me cringe...
But I think for those extremely tall x extremely short couples it might be a subconscious instinctive choice so their offspring will be more likely to grow to a more average height?

How about stop limiting yourself to guys that are taller than you. I'm 5'9" and I don't care if the girl is 4'11" or 5'11". I may be short, but I'm strong enough to be able to throw a woman around regardless of her height. I think the problem isn't tall men only going after short girls or short girls stealing the tall guys. The problem is your insecurity with your own height that you feel the guy HAS to be taller than you to be an option.
It doesn't have to be insecurities. I'm 5'8" and I just think it would be annoying to be with a guy under 6ft and end up looking taller than him in high heels.
@Shygirl666 That's what being insecure is all about. You say you think it would be annoying to look taller than your guy in high heels. In other words you care about how you are perceived. You're insecure when it comes to your own height. You don't feel secure unless the man is taller than you at all times.
@Shygirl666 I'm taller than my boyfriend even without heels. What you just said IS insecurity, you have a superficial problem with how it looks. But if you just your own height, you'd stop giving a damn about others, & have a good boyfriend.
Tall guys like small girls because they see them as cute and need protecting by them, also they feel more needed and helpful around them too because they can help them get things off from high places. Small girls like tall guys because they see them as big and masculine and will protect them
I'm pretty sure (in most cases) tall guys date short girls not because of height difference, but they fell in love for other reasons, it just so happened that she's short and he's tall. BUT, at the same time I have to agree with you a little, I tend to get annoyed when a girl is like 5'1 and only dates guys that are at least 6'4.
Absolutely 100 percent true. Lot of short girls have what you call a tall fetish. Maybe the shortest girls get the tallest guys, because they are more proactive, and don't just sit back and wait for the guy to approach. Think about it, if something comes easy to you, why would want to go through hurdles. So instead of complaining, YOU try taking the initiative to approach them.

I barely see any tall men around and if I do they are always with the shortest women and if anything the men seek the short ones
I'm 5'9 (so a tall girl) and even if what you stated there is true, I don't give a 💩, cause I don't need a super tall man. I don't think people date for height reasons lol. My boyfriend is only 5'11 and I am ok with that. :) But I know plenty of tall single men too, just I only love my boyfriend now.
Great question! I've posted about this several times, and I will tell you why. The fundamental reason you see tall guys with short girls is because they are who wants us. Tall girls are mostly indifferent to tall guys. I'm 6'6", so I stand out wherever I go, but I get absolutely ignored by tall women. Lots of short women go crazy for me, though, including girls who are more attractive than I would think would be into me.
I think women are partially responsible for this. this is a hyper sexuality toward men who are tall among women. I think that shorter girls throw themselves at taller men and are more sexually flirty with them. If shorter women 100 to 1 are throwing themselves at you as a tall guy... then more likely you will end up dating one of them. I don't think there are as many tall women as aggressive as short women for taller guys.
Opposites attract (it's all about the feelz, feeling protected & having to protect her and so on) though I know many very tall guys who want very tall girlfriends but they can't find any lol
I personally would trade to be a really tall girl lol Like 6ft would be awesome. Long legs :3
It sounds like you are having some insecurities with your height. How tall does he have to be? If you are 5'10 and he is 6 ft, does that meet your standard? If you expect a man to be 6'4, then your dating pool is already small and you will always find it hard in general to find man that tall.
I am not saying change your standards. I am saying accept the reality that finding a man like that will be harder. It doesn't matter how long it takes. You will find him eventually.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the vast majority of women are 5'3-5'7. You are above average in height. Therefore, it stands to reason that dating for you will be a little bit harder.
