I'm 5'4 and my fiancé is 5'9 and that's fine with me. In college my boyfriend was closer to 5'6 or 5'7, but he just had an amazing personality and was overall just a likeable, fun, and good looking guy. He was in great physical shape for his size--not too skinny but also not SO muscular that he looked blocky. I think it's a fine line but being short wouldn't be an automatic disqualification for me.

Yep. I'm 5'1", DH is 5'5" and that's just fine by me.

I've dated tall guys before and I'm so short, we always looked ridiculous together. I prefer not having to crane my neck to look my partner in the eye.

Ugh, this thread makes me sad for my 2nd percentile 9 year old who is tracking toward 5'4"-5'5.

+1 Great analogy. And I hate yippy dogs.

Oh, this is about height. I prefer a man several inches taller. It's feel. I don't have a number.

I am 5'3 and I dated some shorter guys (5'8 range). For me, it they aren't super skinny its not a big deal. If they are muscular and bigger boned, they were just as hot to me as taller guys. Short and skinny just does not ring my bell.

I never thought I'd end up marrying someone who is 5.8. When we met I dismissed him originally because of his height but he had such a great personality I thought we could be friends! Ha in one week he had me! I was smitten. He was the life of the party and I'm a sucker for someone who makes me laugh. Oh by the way he is extremely successful so this 6.0 higher is completely bs!

Short men are just not sexy. I am 5'4" and I never seriously dated any one under.5'11". Dh is 5'11" and I wish he was taller. He is Mexican so I guess he would be considered tall in his country. Six feet and tomorrow aller is super hot. I was behind a guy in line last week and he had to be 6'4". I was totally fantasizing about what it would be like to be with him.

Generally I find short men to have a big chip on tbeir shoulder. They just are not manly enough.

Nope. Just not attractive to me

I'm 5'9". My husband is 6'0" but honestly, I'd prefer him to be 6'2"+

DH is 5'8, athletic, and well-proportioned. I think he is sexy.

I like them. I selfishly wouldn't date one because I am 5'10 and I would feel unsexy being bigger.

Absolutely not. He needs to be taller when I put on my heels. So, 6'0 or taller.

I do like shorter men, but not "slight" ones. I like short and athletic and muscled. I'm married to man of average height and build, but I always give a second look to a shorter guy with a particular body type.

I'm weird, I know.
