I’m on dating apps (Bumble and Tinder). I’m getting some guys who are good looking to some degree liking my profile but they are too tall for my taste…not sure why they right swipe on me while they’re like 6’1, 6’4…I mean…I don’t get it.
I also chatted with this guy a few months ago, who didn’t first tell me his height but he turned out to be like 6’3 when I asked him. Omg too tall for me. Why? He saw my height there on my profile. He didn’t put his own height though he was 6’3. He could see I was petite?? Why such a tall guy liking such petite girl like me? He wanted to take me out to a baseball game as a first date. He happened to have some baseball tickets then. Sure I love baseball games, I love watching live sports. But I’m ashamed to say I declined him and unmatched him upon finding out he was too tall for me. I didn’t tell him exactly why. I just said “I’m sorry I’m looking for something different”. He was such a sweet guy. He always messaged me. Everyday for 2.5 weeks. Even when he was on plane, airport and back home in his parents place in Vegas he was messaging me everyday. I felt sad a bit after I had to unmatch him.
I sometimes feel ashamed of my strong preferences on the height of men. But I immediately get turned off when I meet the guy irl when he’s too tall or well, too short. I know what I physically feel attracted to, like 5’7-6’. 6’ it’s pushing there.
Just for the record I’m petite. I’m like 5’2. In great shape and I’m a fit woman. Some men find me very attractive, physically speaking. But regardless of any strong feelings they may have, I prefer someone less than 6’ ideally (and taller than 5’7). It’s a dealbreaker when he’s too tall. The best is 5’7-5’11. I had BFs who were like 6’. My ex fiancé was 6’3.5…way too tall for me personally. Obviously we didn’t meet online. We worked together in different departments in the same company. But yeah I didn’t like his height tbh.
There was never an issue in bed due to height differences in the past just to be clear. They all found me compatible in bed regardless of height differences in all the men I’ve been with, yes even that 6’3-4 guy my ex fiancé.
Girls, would you wait for your right guy to come along who is exactly what you like in terms of physical attributes, like height? I feel turned off when I see a guy who is like 6’1 even. Lol. But there’s this cute guy, his profile is excellent. So cute. Such a sincere profile. He is in my likes. He’s looking for a serious GF according to his profile.
Would you match tall men if you were petite? Am I being too superficial?
And how come some tall men don’t seem to mind small petite girls sometimes? I don’t get this. Isn’t it better they find some girls taller like them? What’s the appeal?
