Do you think it is an advantage or disadvantage for a couple to be the same height? Or do you think height is not important in a relationship?
My perspective is that the height of a couple doesn't determine the strength or quality of their relationship. Love and compatibility go beyond physical attributes like height.
Sympathetically, what truly matters is the emotional connection, shared values, interests, and how well partners complement each other in various aspects of life. While societal norms have sometimes emphasized differences in height, many couples of the same height have thriving, loving relationships.
Couples of similar height may find certain conveniences, like ease in sharing clothes or navigating through spaces. Moreover, they can enjoy a sense of equality in their relationship. However, differences in height can also be endearing and create unique dynamics within a relationship.
In the end, what makes a couple strong and happy is their ability to communicate, understand each other's needs, and provide emotional support. Height is just one of many factors that contribute to the complex tapestry of a relationship. Love, respect, and empathy for each other are far more important than any physical characteristic, including height.

I think there is too much fuss about height. Most times people are either sitting together at a table, sitting on the couch together, sitting in a car, or lying in bed together, where height means nothing. And when you are standing, usually you're doing something like unloading a shopping cart, or standing in line for a few minutes to get a coffee, or standing and doing dishes together where you're not focusing on each others' height. Beyond that, standing to see each other eye to eye for the sake of seeing how the height is between the two of you, to me is just odd. :)
I think too many people obsess over height and what is normal and what’s not. Most couples are either about the same height or the guy is a few inches taller. Honestly being close in height is the best. I’ve dated men a lot taller than me to around my height and I like not having to climb, but it isn’t something that actually matters
Thats the most common pairing, when they are different heights is when its unusual. Most people are between 5' 7" and 5' 9", differences that small can be considered the same height, since functionally and visually you can't really notice the difference unless you measure.
There are so many other important things to worry about in a relationship, height should be way down the list.

It's rare for a couple to be tge same height. One is almost always taller than the other.
im 4'11 but i don't think height is important in a relationship
I don't see any problem
Except that you won't have someone you can look upto (Pun intended) 💀
I'm tall and like heels, so this is a thing I've done.
Not a fan. I really prefer my guy to have height on me if even a couple of inches. Towering over my date is just awkward.I think it's fine. Me and my boyfriend are almost the same height and I don't mind it at all.
Height doesn't matter to me. My last boyfriend was the same height as me and it was great for kissing, hugging and sharing clothes.
I used to only date guys taller but my current boyfriend is only 2 or 3 inches taller and its completely fine with me.
nothing in particular, dont think anyone would be shocked or judge a couple for that anyways. so many couples are similar height wise
I think it'd be downright pleasant to be with someone you can kiss without having to bend over.
I would enjoy seeing eye to eye. I’m 6ft 2 and for some reason the woman that have found me attractive have been about 5ft 3.
Nothing wrong with it, the norm is that a guy is taller and most people prefer that, but you find lots of people where the girl is taller or they are the same height. The most important thing is that they are happy :)
I've dated women 8" shorter and 8" taller than me. I don't think anything about it.
If it’s real love it doesn’t matter. There hearts are in the same place.
We all have preference but in the end, it's not what really matters. I prefer a woman to be a few inches shorter then me but my wife is only 1 inch shorted. Never made any difference.
I think it doesn't matter. Many other things are so much more important, but trust a woman to emphasize the importance of a man's height with so many other things to pick from.
I don't actually think much about this lol. I think this isn't important to worry about. Just my 2 cents.
Whatever works for the couple. I'm 6'2. The shortest I have dated was 4'10. The tallest was 6'1-1/2.
Makes it a lot easier to have sex if you're standing up.
My sister is barely shorter than her husband. They are very happy
It’s good, sex should be very compatible. It can get tricky when he’s a head taller
