Honey, you are 42 and not married? That says it all


Married with two kids. Jut celebrated our 8th anniversary. I was speaking from my single days.

Anywho, was at a wedding on Saturday and was followed all night by a bridesmaid I'd met two hours earlier. Yes she was tipsy, but she was hot and slim. My wife was not happy. But my wife is hotter.


Yeah man, right,sure, ok, gotcha.

Why? Because it doesn’t fit your ideals?

I never really thought of height and have dated shorter guys before. I’m kind of confused about my feelings.


So what are you looking for? A relationship as a whole, or purely sex?
from him I’m not sure. In general I would like to marry again but I need sex to be a part of a long term relationship and good sex.

You sound very insecure...like you have something to prove.


You sound upset that short guys have hot wives.

OP, if it bugs you, it bugs you. That's fine. Own it, and move on. It's irrelevant what anyone else thinks.

+1. but I am 4’11” and the only “men” shorter than me are in elementary school.

I wouldn’t date a guy who is under 5’ and all my shorty girlfriends won’t either.

I have a gf who is 4’9” whose DH is 5’3” and she is always worried about her 13 yo DS being under 5’5” but not worried about her 5’ tall 15 year old DD. It’s hard being a short guy


Sorry, but this made me laugh ? It’s true though. I’m 5’3” and already there are girls in 4th grade who are my height or taller. My MIL is 4’11 and my 8 year old is 4’8”. She produced my 6’1” husband so one never knows about genes...


OP here I actually think this might be part of my issue. I used to work with children some not much shorter than he is. He is short and also very slim. His face is manly but maybe to my mind his build is too childish.

Being short doesn’t preclude him from good sex? Although it may in your mind.

So throw him back into the pond for another woman who will appreciate him. Why hang on?

Then you'll love these photos.





Kind of like how people didn't want to see black people and white people kissing back in the 1960's?

If you are not sexually attracted to him, you can’t make yourself be sexually attracted to him. He doesn’t “do it” for you.

Have you had sex with him yet?

He’s a very sweet guy and I love his personality even if it’s a bit over the top some times in a good way. I’m just stuck on his height . I feel bad about that. I’m not unattractive to him but I’m not attracted at the same time. He’s definitely interested. Not sure what to say


Say the truth, "I'm just using you as a pacifier until I find a better guy to be with."
