Dumbledore Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 I'm 6' 2" and once upon a time ago, I had a first date with a woman (5'4" white 150lbs ) who insisted she wouldn't ever date a man less than six foot tall, which bugged me, she also mentioned she would never ever date a black guy. I left her at the restaurant that night with a fifty dollar dinner check (we both had the filet). It dawned on me while I was in the bathroom that she was incredibly shallow and racist. I mean I didn't object to her being a bit doughy, but it irked me to think that if I wasn't as tall, she wouldn't give me the time of day. She took a cab home. She called later that night. She was livid, of course, so I hung up. :lmao: She deserved it. Good call. Maybe she learnt her lesson, but shallow types don't change too often. At least you tried.
chrislovestosurf Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 its posts like these that make me thank god I am over 6 feet. I swear that is the one thing universally that all women seem to hate. Let him go but for gods sake dont mention it is due to his height.
movingonandon Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 LOL!!! You're funny. However they do tend to look younger and fitter as they age. The skin, the hair..., asian girls definitely age better, but that's not the only draw. More to the original point, most of them (the ones that are not 100% americanized, say 60% is ideal...) know to "pick their fights" as far as relaitonships are concerned. I.e. they won't make a big deal out of something that's irrelevant for the general relationship health. For example, they won't criticise whatever plans/decisions you've made, disqualify you on the basis of arbitrary trait, or make a scene without credible provocation, etc. Does this make them submissive and lacking individuality, as some haters suggest? Of course not. That makes them smart and subtle - there's still a chance that they'll crimp your style and rip your heart out eventually, just like any other girl, but at least you enjoy every minute of it There are exceptions to everything, of course, but there is a strong enough pattern at least for me to generally believe that
sparkey64 Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 5'8" and I wouldn't date a woman taller than 5'5"
johan Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 5'8" and I wouldn't date a woman taller than 5'5" I know where you're coming from, man. If you go much bigger than that you risk pairing up with someone who could beat you up. And that don't fly.
sparkey64 Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 oh ya, I don't date ugly or fat women either. Or women one second older than me. Small boobs too, dont go there they look ridiculous. There has to be an attraction... Given all the things that turn guys off and makes women "undatable" if a woman wants a guy taller than her I think that's fine.
Dumbledore Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 It's not rocket science. Men need a woman to look up to him, just like a woman needs a man to look up to.
redant Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Tall guys the good looking ones rock because there is more of them but I met a 5'9" guy and he is great. I think short is ok but just be bigger than me for example don't be able to wear my pants
crfsti Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 i'm a single 5'7''/165lbs male and have had many girls turn down dates with me just because of my height. i've been told by many women that they think i'm cute but they only date men over 5'8'',5'9'',5'10'',6',etc. it just sucks and makes it very hard to get anywhere with the ladies, i mean there's nothing i can do about it, like if someone had different color skin or something. i don't know.....i think a lot of women miss out on some really good guys out there by looking at what's on the outside and not taking the time to see what's on the inside.
socialight Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 that is totally true. and guys do the same thing based upon weight, looks, etc. In many respects short for men = fat for women, etc that in many cases you can do something about being fat. Fair, no. Reality, yes. But look at it this way. I barely over 5'7. My best friend is a 6'1 240 lb solid muscle ex- division one athlete. And I pull way more tail then he does. Because of attitude!
Ramrod Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 True, but it was an internet connection for one, she claimed to be 5'6" for starters, not that it matters, and the part about not wanting to date black people really irked me. I'm not black. But I was raised not to be predjudice, many of my friends and co-workers back then were black and at that time I was sorta looking for marriage material, which is what she had presented herself to be in her profile. Come to find out, she was just a fat, shallow and angry slut. If I had stayed and paid the check, I might have felt the urge to hump her and dump her. She got off...err bad choice of words...cheap (And she was a Phd $75k a yr to my 40k). You don't know the whole story, if you knew me, you'd know I'm a gentleman. Besides, my mother approved and that's all that matters.
elaina Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 It's not rocket science. Men need a woman to look up to him, just like a woman needs a man to look up to. Lol that's funny Good joke! You are just joking right? I'm 5'4'' and I like my man to be 5'10 or taller to look up to him of course! Ramrod, that wasn't polite to just leave like that. It would have been better if you had just told her you are not interested in her and that you will just pay for your meal and then leave, yeah? Why didn't you do that?
