I really like guys around 5'10." I'm not picky about height, I just find that particular height to be extremely sexy. It's tall enough to be taller than most women, but close enough to your girl's height that it's cozy and comfy.

I'm actually 5' 10", but does it really matter? height should never be more important than things like personality

 

Why not? Maybe she only gets turned on if a guy is quite tall. No different to a guy wanting a woman with big boobs or a phat ass.

 

As for it being superficial, hormones are often interested in 'superficial' traits, and you need hormones to feel a strong physical attraction to someone.

Materialistically.

 

I'll start with list of what I CANNOT compromise (in order of importance):

 

- Height: be 6'0" +, or be gone.

-Financial status: will have to make same or more than I do (preferably more). This means he should be prepared to handle at least 3/4 of expenses we both incur.

- Better live within 30 miles radius or it won't work

- someone with out-of-control kids won't work

- 12 years + or - need not apply (unless he complies with Point 1 and 2)

 

 

What are yours??

 

Can't compromise:

 

High sex drive, adventurous with no hangups

Doesn't want to get married or have/want kids

No nagging or excessive drama

7/10 or higher on looks

No anorexia or obesity

Not socially conservative or religious

 

Can compromise:

 

Most other stuff

Mental traveller, what do you mean when you say religious? Do you mean someone who practices a religion or someone who's obsessed with it? Just curious because I hear a lot of people say they dont want to date someone religious.

LoveJonesRomance,

 

That's an interesting response.

 

I guess that means for you that "Height: be 6'0" +, or be gone." isn't really a "CANNOT compromise" item for you or at least it is not really #1 on your list as you wrote in your original posting. ;) Is that correct?

 

I'm not saying that as criticism, but to give you some more clarity as to what your true list is for qualities that you can and cannot compromise on.

 

It's all about balancing the equation, Westrock.

 

My 5'11" came with plenty of other good qualities that some 6'0"+ failed to bring along, so why not? I never said that once you're 6'0" it's a done deal; of course there are other factors I put into consideration as well.

 

By they way, I didn't feel I was compromising anything anyway since he's just an inch shorter.
