[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I received a message online from a man on a dating site. It was a very thoughtful message and then near the end he said something alone the lines of just before you look at my profile, I wanted to mention that some women find my appearance intimidating. Just know that I am a softie at heart and a really gentle person (I am paraphrasing).

I go look at his profile and he is a mountain of a man. Height was 6'7" and he just has a really big frame, is muscular, has an angular face, and looks like an action figure. (Maybe kind of like The Rock's size). It was intimidating and honestly, even though he seemed like a nice guy, his size was a turn off for me. I felt bad for him since he feels the need to let women know he isn't scary but his physique is just a little scary. It wasn't so much that I had fear of being hurt although his size would make me feel a little vulnerable but more that it would be like he would roll over and crush me and that his strength / size was just too much. I think I like to feel a little more of an equal (even if I am weaker) in terms of strength. This felt to me like I would be a small child - big adult feeling in terms of strength. 
Then I felt a little guilty as my response was pretty superficial and this guy obviously has a hard time getting past a first message due to his size.  I am average height and weight so not super petite but he would tower over me.

Have other women dated really big strong men?

Probably a fake profile pic. Guys like that have no trouble getting dates.
