I’m dying inside crushing hard af over a man who is very solidly 5’9 and I’m a 5’7ish woman who practically lives in heels 24/7, it only matters if it matters to the people in said relationship 🤷🏻‍♀️

As a 5’10 girlie I would like my man to be at least as tall as me (but not taller when I wear my platforms bc I’m the baddest bitch here) but it’s not like a deal breaker I have found guys shorter than me very attractive

I didn’t bother digging through the comments to see if OP mentioned her height, but she’s probably comparing his height to hers. If she’s above 5’8, he’s short to her. I’m 5’8 and anyone shorter than me is “short” to me. If the male average somehow changed to 5’6, I still wouldn’t consider a 5’7 man “tall”.

I’m 5’3 and dated a guy 6’2.. I lowkey just felt like a little kid looking up at him and I hated it. Also he was insecure about his lankiness and tried to take it out on me about how i’m.. well the opposite, even though I’m fit 😀

They’ve read too many “he’s 6’4” romance novels. My ex was 6’4. My cousin and my brother are 6’5 and they look like freaks of nature. Like they are extraordinarily tall

I felt the same way. Like everyone was dogging on her and I didn’t get it bc I am also a tall woman (apparently nearly 5” over the female average??) and it really is fine to have preferences, plus I didn’t think she was that rude about it so idk why people are like “it’s wrong to say it in a hurtful way” … it wasn’t said in an offensive way ……. And then I saw where she said she’s multiple inches shorter and I just closed out the comment section😭💀like girl shut up he’s still taller!

Exactly! You can wear heels and you won’t be taller and that’s what you need! No need for a hight difference when wearing heels?
