My bf is 5’7 and I’ve not cared once about his height…obviously personal preference exists, but it hurts my heart to hear how insecure him and many other shorter men are because of comments from others(similar to this one) it’s just disappointing. You can have a preference without making it someone else’s problem. I understand if he’s shorter than you, you might not prefer that and that’s completely ok! You don’t need to make him aware of that though!
i don’t think it’s toxic to have a preference tbh. has society altered things and now the ideal height on men is pretty unreasonable? yeah. but i don’t think it’s a big deal if she wants a guy who’s taller than her when she wears heels. and it’s better for the guy to find someone who doesn’t mind his height than someone who has to force herself to look past it
Yeah but girls keep saying 5’9 men are short. They aren’t short, that’s an average man. And the fact that it’s an unrealistic expectation should be the end of the conversation really. Like if OP can’t get over the fact that the guy is short and like someone for something that isn’t superficial then she just needs to leave him. There’s no “how do u get over an average detail” it’s let that man go
