Perfect height difference in a couple?

Question

Hello! I’m curious to know what your opinion is on this often discussed topic. I often see that a girl wants a guy no shorter than 162 cm or 5’4” (my 12 year old sister is that height by the way xD) and guys want no girls taller taller than 182 cm or 6’. I would like your opinion on that matter too :D
Now, I will express my perspective. I’m a 16 year old girl standing at 173 cm which is about 5’8.25” (I use metric) and the guy I like (I’m not dating him yet) is 185 cm or 6’1”. This mean there is 12 cm between us. I think it’s a good difference because I can easily look up to him since I admire him. Honestly, the ideal height (I believe it can vary depending on how tall you are) for a guy in my opinion would be anything 182 cm and above.
What about you? What do you see as the best height difference in a couple? Also, if you feel like answering these: How tall are you? How tall would be ideal for a female/male partner?
Thank you :]

Am exactly 6 feet 1 inch. I liked a girl who was fit but slightly on a chubbier side she was about only 5 feet 2 inch. But she was damn cute and on the other hand I found this girl attractive who was almost tallest amongst all in the class. She was 5 feet 11 inch. She was lean and cute too
So I don't care that much about height as long as they are above 5 feet and lesser or equal of my height as long as they are cute. The perfect gap difference can be of 4 to 5 inches

I'm 5'10" and yes I do prefer girls that are shorter then me only cause when spooning they make perfect little spoons. But beyond that I really don't have a preference

I'm 5'10" so the average American male is around my height, give or take a couple inches. I find it really frustrating when barely 5' girls say they only want 6' or taller guys... seriously, reevaluate yourselves. As for me, if we're both comfortable, it doesn't really matter. I love my heels but I also love my flats (plus then my guy has the advantage).

I don't really care. But about 6 inches/15 cm sounds good for me cause I'm short. But you could say that I mentioned it just for the sake of answering and not because it is something I want or need.

My boyfriend is 25cm taller than me and I like the difference tbh. I have nothing against guys who are shorter than that, but I like to feel small and cute lol.

Perfect would either be the exact same height for making out reasons, or having her be tall enough that when she hugs me my face ends up between her boobs. Or if she's so short that sex can be a bit more bouncy/vigorous because she's very lightweight.

The woman being less than half a foot shorter or less than 3 inches taller than the man. Somewhere in that range would be ideal in my opinion. I don’t buy into the girl can’t be taller than guys crap, as long as the guy is physically stronger it shouldn’t matter in my opinion, and if the woman is too much shorter, it can look like a dad daughter situation.

My boyfriend is about 10cm taller than me (I'm 178cm and he's about 188cm) and for me it feels perfect.

SaltyBooze · Answer

none of the above. perfect couple = no matter what, they glue together. even being a giant woman with a dwarf of a man.

I like to be a head taller than a girl. Then it's not too difficult to kiss, and also, I get to feel manly and dominant :)

I like girls about 172cm, i'm 185cm. About 10-12 cm is a good difference, it lets the girls wear heels and be roughly equal or slightly shorter.

CINDY16 · Answer

Its perfect when girls wear heels and guys are still taller

Yuki_JPN · Answer

I think 15 cm is best  I'm 155 cm and my boyfriend is 180 cm

PrettyRegular · Answer

16cm. Even that would mean, that I would date a 179cm (nearly 5'11") girl. God I'm tall...
