<p>Julieanna, I know what you mean about limiting. Setting limits on height, let alone hair color and eyes, is extremely detrimental to your development as a member of a relationship.</p>
<p>Silverturtle, judging from your post, your evaluation of a potential girlfriend is very holistic. Even so, would you consider any one factor to be a so-called “deal breaker” (i.e., if the person possesses this trait, a relationship with them would not be an option)?</p>
<p>How about sex-addiction?=P Well, if they were very committed, then I think that could be a good thing…(: Hmm, scratch that, general sluttiness.</p>
<p>When (at what age) are most guys done growing in height?</p>
<p>Studious Maximus: Miracle Whip LOL.
NMW: From 14 to 25.
EK: LOL</p>
<p>so a fictional girl in HS, who is 15 and 5’4", likes a guy, who is also 15, 5’2", should not be concerned too much about the guy’s height. A 15 year old girl is pretty much done growing, but the guy is not. He may end up to be a giant. :D</p>
<p>Well, in a different generation, yes, but probably not in ours. But yes, it’s possible. Read on.
I know one kid who was 5’2 at 11, his girlfriend (another friend) was 5’11. Now he’s 6’4, and she’s about 6’1. And they’re freshman.</p>
<p>Exactly, if they plan on a long-term relationship, who knows how the height situation’ll work out. However, it shouldn’t even matter. What’s 2 inches lol?(: Other than 5.08 centimeters…(;</p>
<p>Yeah, I’d definitely agree with you there.
Another topic. Who is more unreasonable about height in dating, boys or girls?</p>
<p>Girls, overall, I’d say. Though in my personal experience, nearly every girl who’s liked me has been taller than me. Though this may just be because I’m so short that the amount of girls who’re shorter than me is very small. I’ve never seen a guy complain that a girl’s too short though, or too tall, while I hear girls complain that guys are too short pretty frequently.</p>
<p>I’m a girl and I’m 5"2’ish… if I liked a guy and he was one or two inches shorter, that would be okay… just not much shorter than me because that would be kind of weird. but who am I kidding, basically all the guys at my school are taller than me haha.</p>
<p>i’m a 6’3 guy, girls seem to dig height in my opinion. not that they’re superficial, it subconsciously shows your good genes in the eyes of a female which is present in all animals.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Um, recurrent tendency to commit homicide might do it. </p>
<p>Aside from something extreme, I actually can’t reasonably foresee any trait that would necessarily crush all chance. And if there were something she had that in theory ought to break the deal, in practice love has the power to allow one to turn a blind eye to faults, whether appropriately or not. Chronic infidelity, however, would be all but insuperable, but that’s not really a trait as much as a concomitant sign of other problems in the relationship.</p>
<p>Interesting. You seemed to emphasize the girl’s ability to form complex intellectual opinions and insights. What if a hypothetical girl was perfect in almost every way for you, but she wasn’t at all smart (let’s say 1200 SAT, purely superficial vocabulary, and an inability to express complex insights coherently)?</p>
<p>Well, you would weight different things. Maybe that wouldn’t be perfect in almost everyway.</p>
<p>Eli: Yeah, agreed. Though, if you’re short and well built, that’s a plus.</p>
<p>^I used “almost” as a qualifier. She’s perfect in every way, save for her her intellect.</p>
<p>But say if you value intellect as 1/2 of your holistic approach…</p>
<p>I’m a guy almost 5’4. However, i’m almost 16. So if I can go to 5’6, then no. </p>
<p>But now, I would. But they wouldn’t I bet lol</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>first…people with a 1200 on the SAT probably don’t generate what we would consider complex insights to begin with.</p>
<p>If a person values intelligence, and a girl is not at all smart, then she is very likely not at all a lot of other things too, which that person values.</p>
<p>@PP: My question wasn’t general; it was addressed specifically to silverturtle. I’m sorry if that was unclear. He said he wouldn’t disqualify a potential partner based on any one criterion. I simply posed a hypothetical question isolating the criterion that seemed to be paramount in his post. No need for scrutiny.</p>
