Thanks (I think) for the ping. I'm afraid to read the rest of this thread.

[RockinRight]

Never thought of that trick... ;-)

[MamaTexan]

Sheesh, it is not that fricking hard.

ROFLMAO!

TELL 'EM, teeny!

Some people just insist on making life complicated for themselves. :)

[Dashing Dasher]

;-)

It isn't rocket science is it!?

Just update your ad: I'm 5'7 - Have stepladder, will travel ;~D

Your point's a good one, I think it's sortof the nature of personal ads that reduce everyone to a list of stats and a photo, to look very shallow... I couldn't do it.

I met my husband here, where it was his words that charmed me long before I knew what he looked like, or him me. :~D

[RockinRight]

Great story! Congrats to you both.

One site, match.com even lets you search by politics. Surprisingly checking off "Conservative" and "ultra conservative" in my search I still got over 70 matches within 60 miles...

[HairOfTheDog]

I'm not that tall, myself, I'm 5'5" so I haven't seen too many men over age 12 who weren't in the ball park for my height.

As I approach 30, I wonder if I am better off single for life...there's some Freepers with great marriages here, but I can't seem to meet the kind of woman I can make it work with to where we both want the same things.

I held off on my first marriage until I was 25 – and I was too young (as was the girl). That lasted 8 months. I held off another 15 years before my next marriage and she was a definite keeper.

At your height I could *almost* understand it, but I've found even 5'2 girls are putting this "requirement" on their ads.

[teenyelliott]

Hey, good to see you!!!!!!

[r9etb]

The funniest thing about the article is that its author is serious....

[Paul_Denton]

I am 5 foot 11 here. LOL

[RockinRight]

Just a qualifier...I was 13 before I broke the 5'5 mark! And a whopping 5'7 now...

www.realwomen.net (I'd bet that's already a porn site)

www.liberalchickssuck.com (probably a porn site too)

I like www.womenofstature.com........

But it's taken too-

[marajade]

Does your husband's eyes come to the same height as your breasts?

Have you ever dated a man whose did?

Personally, I find it unpleasant.

[RockinRight]

RRRROWR!

[teenyelliott]

I'm just glad me an' the missus are still happy so I don't have to get back in "the pool"

Happy or not, I'm staying married!

And I am supremely happy, BTW.

[marajade]

five foot seven ain't bad. You know what I find funny is that very tall men six feet and over always seem to be looking for the short petite women. Go figure!

[RockinRight]

I was once the man in question on a date. She was SIX-THREE!!

It was, honestly, a bit weird. Although otherwise we had lots in common, and she was HOT with a capital "H." What I am talking about is women who won't accept a guy an inch shorter or so.

[R. Scott]

It worked for me and no offense, but a mortgage load officer might need all the help he can get – it doesn’t exactly sound like an exciting life. Of course, the lady may be looking for the rock solid type with a good financial future. I never thought of using that ploy.
