What is the height difference between you and your s/o? Are you the same height? Is there a small difference? A big difference?

Bradley is about 2" taller than me, but we're about even when I wear heels.

I always date taller men, I feel funny when my SO is shorter than I am (but me being about 5'10 reduces my dating pool a tad - only men over 6ft need apply!
)

Wow Clare, I had no idea you were so tall! My mom is tall, too, and she always said that it was difficult for her to date men b/c so many were shorter than her, so I bet that can be tough for you
. I guess that is the only good thing about being short
.

I have always dated guys that were very tall, so 5'7" Bradley was a change (and fortunately a GOOD change) of pace for me. Definitely keeps me from wearing the super-high stilettos though!

Have you checked under his kilt yet Susan?


Rich is actually shorter than me - not by much (maybe 1 inch) so you'd only notice if I'm wearing heels (which isn't often as I feel I'm tall enough!)

I have to admit that I do feel a bit self-conscious about it though... it's a pet hate of mine (women with shorter men). I know, I should count myself lucky and really being saying "I wouldn't change anything about him", but if I could just stretch him a little tiny bit

Well, I'm 5 foot 4 inches, and my husband is 6 foot 4 inches.
We have a great relationship.....he can reach the top shelves, and I can remember what I had asked him to put in those high shelves!

I'm am roughly 5'4" or 5'5" and bf is about 6'1" or so. It's not a major difference but I think it's just right

My friends always joke around and nicknamed my SO and myself "Mutt and Jeff" him being Jeff


I'm 5"2 and Jeff is 6"4
there is also 100 lbs of weight difference between us

I generally date guys 6 feet or over, but my last serious boyfriend was 5'6", and I'm 5'4". I prefer taller guys, but it's not a prerequisite or anything.

I'm 5 feet tall. I am a shrimp.

My boyfriend is about 6 foot 3. He wears cowboy boots all the time, too, so that puts him about 6'6". He TOWERS over me and I LOVE IT!

I am 5'7" and John is about 5'9, so thank goodness he's a little bit taller than me
I just can't wear tall shoes otherwise I'm about the same height as he is!
