Ok, It's official. I'm too short so I've been dumped. [UPDATE 9 Years Later...]

She's right in that women generally aren't attracted to short men, but you're not short - she's EXTREMELY tall!!!! Does she play basketball?

 

And FWIW, if that's you in your avatar, you have mad sexy legs!

Not as sexy as yours. I gotta say I've been drooling for quite some time.

LOL, thanks. It's not really a leg pic, however, it's all about the SHOES! Yes, HIGH HEEL SHOES! But, even with them on (4"), you would still be taller...

Oh yes he does!!!

Is that you in your avatar? It kind of looks like Carmen Electra

Awesome! Want to go out with me? I'm taller!

If you weren't 3k miles away, I would totally go out with you AND wear my big girl heels. You still wouldn't look me in the eyes...

well I wouldn't be surprised if that is actually her in her pic... judging by the amount of men that seem to be chasing her lol...

Yes, from three years ago though. It's my "return-to-this" goal picture.

And you'd still be 4 inches taller than me in my heels.

Sweet! It's a date!... er... yeah! hahahaha :lmao:

Whoa... you're gorgeous... I'm just hitting shamelessly on all you beautiful women

Let me guess, 3k miles away as well.

Yeah, unfortunately JB's closer, so she gets home court advantage... damn.

How am I closer?

No, she does not play bball, we play tennis often and she's got a mean forehand.

I didn't think you and I were on the same coast...?

West coast, girl.

Rod - tell her she should consider taking up basketball OR finding a TALL CHICKS WHO LOVE TALL MEN group. I think 5'10" is the minimum for women... Is that nasty to tell her?

First, you're not short. She's tall.

 

It all comes down to attraction, and yes, MANY (if not MOST) women need to be shorter than the guy they're with when wearing heels. It's an attraction thing, which you cannot help.

It doesn't make sense if they were actually already a friggin COUPLE.

I know some women that will not date a guy if he's not tall enough, BEFORE even starting anything.

But dumping someone for their height after dating for a while??

If you READ his posts they were NOT actually a couple.

Hahahaha! I think that would be cruel and unnecesarily mean. I believe in karma.

I'm just going to get a little drunk tonight and maybe sing karaoke (I've got a really good voice, I've been told) I love the compliments I get from it.

I can't believe I'm about to defend her...

In her defense, she did say she was trying something new, since the old hadn't been working for her. I told her I wasn't mad at her (I'm really not) but it sucks because I really liked her.

The funny thing is that he's not even short. He's pretty much average, if not a couple of inches taller than the average height for a guy. It's just that the girl he was with happened to be the same height as his, and apparently she loves wearing heels so much so that it becomes an issue for her that she appears taller than him when she wears those heels.

 

I dunno... it's kind of like what Citizen Erased said...

Yeah, thing is, he's normal...she's not heightwise In fact, she'll never really find a man if that's the case, because she'll pretty much be taller than ANY man she meets in heels.

Yet put another woman on the gift list for a basket and kitten to give to her with a note saying, "For the future cat lady".

That's too funny!

She's insecure because she is so tall. She wants a really tall guy so she can feel more like a woman of normal height. If it bothers her, then she is not the right woman for YOU. That's the key.

Let her go so you can be free to find someone who doesn't make HER height YOUR issue.

That actually makes a LOT of sense. I didn't really look at it that way...

I agree with CaliGuy actually. I've had some really tall girlfriends and they can be just as insecure about their height like any other physical attribute.
