For others, it takes longer. But it is worth the wait. Never settle. You will be miserable.
No, but they always end up there anyway, so it really doesn't make much difference how tall he is ;~D
Whatever floats yours and hers boats I say.
If women that are five foot two are looking for men who are five foot nine or taller is their only criteria then you probably wouldn't be interested in them anyway.
LOL, my ex husband is 6'2" and I'm 5'1".
Great now that he's your husband... But when he first met you that's why he was first attracted to you?
That's the type I'm talking about.
Well at least he's your ex now. More for the taller women folk.
Not the only criteria.
Basically here's the thing. About 3 years ago, I answered an ad on match.com. This girl was cute, about 5'10 and a half, a South Park Republican type, total 80s metalhead like me, basically the PERFECT girl...but...she flat out told me "I am sorry, you're a sweet guy but I just can't be with a short man...I just can't find you attractive." Ever since then it's been a sore spot with me, since I can't do a damn thing about being short.
LOL...he remarried (someone taller than me)...go figure.
She wasn't worth it in the first place...good thing you found that out early.
She said that to you on a first date? Are you sure that was the real reason or just one she made up?
I guess there is some justice left in the world.
Well about the second date...I dunno, maybe it was something else. Hard to tell...which brings up another peeve...women do this, but honestly, so do men:
Please don't make up lies as to why you're breaking up!!
I forgot to mention they are separated...LOL
Hmmm - let me know when. I'll bet that would be entertaining..........
Well my husband is six foot three and at five foot ten I found that attractive about him. But what at first attracted me was his mind and respect for me.
Exactly... too much difference in height looks funny, but as long as people are in the realm of average, I can't imagine it making enough difference to mention it.
I suppose on reflection, my dad's lady friend is taller than he is. My dad's a fairly short guy, but since he's my dad I will always see him as bigger'n me. :~D
With that date, my eyes WERE right at breast level whether I wanted them to be or not.
Too much, yeah that's weird. I don't mind an inch or two taller though.
Women having very few (if any) female friends and a bunch of male friends is indeed quite a prominent red flag, and the standard excuses seem to be "I just relate better to men." ...."most women are too catty/jealous/envious to be friends with."
I detest 'hinters'....if they'd just come out and SAY it, you'd be done with it, but NOOOOO. You have to take a half an hour just to draaaaag it out of 'em!
I dunno, one thing that's true is I do tend to get along better with "one of the guys" type girls (the shoot pool, play poker, shoot guns and drink beer type), although now that I think about it, they also have lots of female friends.
