<p>i know ppl keep saying height doesn't matter. but i do find it uncomfortable going out with guys shorter than me. friends are totally fine. btw, i'm 5'3</p>
<p>If you have to ask the question, I am questioning if you are ready to handle the ramifications of such a choice. Sounds like most responses you are getting are from mature young adults.....which I am guessing is not what you are used to dealing with at your school. Height is not a priority in a relationship, and neither is the approval of your peers. That being said, you do have to be secure enough and self confident enough to deal with what might be adverse reactions from your peers. If you both can't take the heat, I would not start a relationship with someone knowing you will be subjected to much criticism and ridicule by your classmates. It will create tremendous strain on your relationship. If you think you two are ready for that, by all means. If not, why ruin a great friendship?</p>
<p>Some of you people care way too much about what others think.</p>
<p>i don't know. i have no problem at all with girl-taller-than-guy couples. i know several and i think they all look great.
maybe i'm really vain.</p>
<p>Would any of you girls reject guys because he is only 2-3 inches taller than you and you want someone 6 to 8 inches taller?</p>

If I were a 5 foot , which I'm not, I'd be much more concerned about guys that were 6'6" and over rather than 4'11 and under.

guys, she never said she was 5ft tall...</p>
<p>and rachel212 5'11' is giant for a women so you better start getting use to dating shorter guys (unless you'll go with a 6'2'' guy just because of his hieght)</p>
<p>Hahaha I don't understand any of this. </p>
<p>I'm 5'10, my boyfriend is 5'7, and we're awesome together. We'd be just as awesome if our heights were reversed. There are way more important things to consider in a relationship than how tall your partner is. Seriously. </p>
<p>Also, if I were the guy you were "talking to" or whatever and I found out that you were having reservations because you were taller than me, I'd drop you like a sack of bricks. It just seems totally shallow.</p>
<p>Did you really have to bump another height thread? Some of you guys are so insecure... you need to get therapy or something.</p>
<p>To Ayoub- Sorry, but 5'11" is not "giant for a women" (woman). Any American college campus that has a fair number of Midwesterners or athletes will have tons of tall women (and men). While you a label a tall woman "giant", she will label you as "puny".</p>
<p>5'11" is giant for a woman; that's well above 95th percentile for a white woman. She can call me puny if she wants, but she's still a giant.</p>
<p>yes, I would.</p>

LOL, i said the same thing dude: if she was 5'4'' THEN id say she should think about it</p>
<p>OP: If you like him and want to move things furthur along, then go for it. If you don't, don't. But if you're going to NOT go out with him b/c of his height or b/c of what ppl are saying/posting online -then I'd recommend you not going out with him. If you think ppl are going to be talking, and the thought of it scares you already then don't try it. Unless you gain more confidence or don't give a damn, I'd say you're prolly not going to say yes anyways. </p>
<p>Again, I skipped the every post except the first one. Sorry if I repeated anything.</p>
