I may have to settle for a short man if I want a relationship

[Janesays]

The guys who are of my preferred height, are usually taken. This is making me incredibly frustrated.

 

Good. They dodged a bullet.

translation: I'm 5'0 but I only want men who are 6'0+

 

Hey! I am 5'0 and my husband is 6'0+!!

 

Oh but when I think about it, I was never that bothered about height so did not give off that desperate, judgemental vibe some might do.

I highly doubt that is true. I see no shortage of single men 5'9" and above in my city. You might want to move if that is true where you live.

The horror!

 

I'm so sorry for your loss.

So what do you intend to do?

 

Just curious!

Yeah but the men who are like 5'5 are the ones who seem the most interested. I dont get this.

That's because the taller men know they can get a higher quality woman.

I think your problem is not the mans height but what others will/might say if your seen with a shortie.

 

It takes courage but it's your life. Decide what makes you happy and achieve that goal.

[MissJoness]

So I have to settle for a short guy which sucks:mad:

It's not really about what others might say, although it does look better to be with a taller man. It's just that I have zero attraction to shorter men, even though it seems that my chances of getting into a relationship with one is a bit greater. I just know that i wont be happy and I'd probably end up resenting him for not being what i wanted. I don't want to put someone through that.

It's called compromise. After all, I am sure a man who dates you will probably need to make a compromise or two.

[Revolver]

I have attracted tall men in the past it's just that they dont want to commit to me. the short ones are more likely to do this but they aren't what i want. however I may have to compromise and settle for a guy who isn't my preferred height

 

This is the problem most women have in general

[MissJoness]

Yeah but I have to compromise sexual attraction as well. Sexually, short men do nothing for me.I hated sex with my ex who was 5'5. I hated every minute of it and his height had a lot to do with it

You dont have to. Just make yourself a higher quality woman in the areas that you have control over.

[sillyanswer]

I can never get what I'm looking for. The men I'm usually the most attracted to are 5'9 and over. However, it seems that the guys the most interested are usually short, 5'5-5'6 and I have zero attraction to short men at all.

 

I know this thread is a trainwreck, but there's no point settling for someone you're not attracted to. You like tall guys... what can you do to become more attractive to those tall guys who have all those options?

[MissJoness]

I'm not sure. I'm very darkskin, perhaps I would have to brighten a few shades. Lightskin women are more in demand.

I love how this thread has some real answers peppered in here and there as opposed to everyone being on the same page that OP is way out of line.

Get over yourself. This thread is not about you and your insecurities.

How am I way out of line? Why is it a joke when a woman has a preference, but when a man has a preference for slender women its taken seriously

[somedude81]

Get over yourself. This thread is not about you and your insecurities.

Of course it's not.

 

It's about MissJones and her shallowness.

 

Stop trying to make things about me.

I like slender women. I date slender women.

 

You like tall guys. You should date tall guys.

 

Bam. Problem solved.

Oh, don't make it a thread about race. That's a whole different trainwreck!

My lack of attraction to short men is not being shallow. I'm not that sexually attracted to them, and if there is no sexual attraction its going to be hard to maintain a long term relationship if sex is involved.

So true. You will never be happy with such a negitive attitude.

You have already decided before the beginning.

 

Life is what you make it.

 

I bet your non-interest carries over to friends as well.

Try making some friends with shorter men and see if you can see them as desirable.
