    Been seeing this guy who's really nice and we get on well. Only issue is that it's a bit of a sophie dahl- jamie cullum / tom - nicole situation with our heights. bye bye beautiful heels *sob* It's probably just my own issue and it might be silly to finish things with a great guy because he's a few inches shorter. What do you guys think of the girl being way taller than the guy?

    its only an issue if he makes it one - if he gets all narky about you wearing heels (or any other peice of favourite clothing), or is insecure about having you overshadowing him in any other way - looks, income, education etc.. then he's a bit of a idiot and you probably ought to ditch him anyway.

    my mrs is about 6 inches taller than me in heels, doesn't worry me in the least, and i think she looks fantastic.

    I think it is only an issue if you care more for what other people think (what you imagine they are thinking...)

    Keep it simple.
    Does he make you happy?
    Do you make him happy?

    Who cares about the rest...

    Well, if you aren't bothered about him being shorter, then what's the problem? If he hasn't shown any sign of being bothered, you shouldn't worry.

    I wish Rod Stewart was here, he'd set you straight.

    Yeah, I'd be in agreement, if it doesn't bother you and it doesn't bother him well then it really doesn't matter at all. It would be a pity to finish a good relationship over a few inches, especially when we're talking about height :D

    Yeah. Seems a bit shallow to end it unless, as has been said, it bothers him to an intolerable degree. Then again, if it bothers you and you can't live with being with a shorter guy then you should do what you feel is right for you. As I said though - it would seem to be pretty shallow to do so if the two of you are otherwise compatible. How would you feel about him if you put on a few pounds and he dumped you as a result?
