There isn't a issue for the men. It's women who for some reason want a man who's 6'5. Plus it would look like he's taking his kid for a walk if she's 4'11
Load More Replies...No way in hell can someone 4'11" distinguish between someone who's 6'2" and someone who's 6'6".
The tall one could use the short one as an end table. I've seen stranger though.
There was an adorable goth couple at my school. He was long and lanky, and she was just *tiny*. I overheard him calling her his "fairy". When they wanted to kiss, she would stand three steps up the staircase. While the odds aren't good, I hope they built a life together.
Load More Replies...She needs someone to reach the cereal from the top shelf in the supermarket.
She should climb the shelves like the rest of us who are too stubborn to ask for help.
Load More Replies...Either she's desperate for average-height kids or likes standing while... well,...
I don't get it. Height is not something you can control and is not an indicator of any type of personality. Girls need to get a clue.
Yeah... That means this chick wants the 1% man or trying to find stupid reasons not to date instead of just saying "not interested"
You should see my uncle and aunt. Uncle is 6'5", aunt is south of 5 foot, I tower over her and I am 5' 6". They make such a cute couple, but I have always wondered if she hates being under his armpit when he puts his arm around her shoulders - this would bother me, I don't want your pit on my hair!
Load More Replies...He could easily check her for head lice, and she could monitor his nose hair growth.
There's a growing trend of women only wanting guys that are at least 6' tall. It's crazy. Average height of a man is 5'10" and average height of a woman is 5'6". I understand women wanting to wear heals sometimes but how tall are your heals???
Apparently is "ok" to reject men based on height but it's not ok to reject a woman because shes fat. This is a weird freaking world. There is nothing wrong with a man being tall or short. I'm engaged to a short king myself. I'm 5'9 (closer to 5'10) and hes 5'7 . Height dont mean s**t.
My ex is 5'9" - and I ONLY know that because I looked at his drivers' license once when he was showing me how they spelled his traditional-Chinese middle name on it (he was born in the States and has a very American first name, but his middle name is Chinese.) Like at NO point during the dating phase did the question "how tall are you?" come up XD I can't fathom being so fixated on a man's height when you're considering whether to date them or not. EDIT: I, however, used to whine and snivel about MY height to him - I'm 5'5", perfectly average for a woman, but I always wanted to be 5'8" when I was a kid, because my favorite comic book superhero (Rogue from the X-Men) was 5'8"! XD
Load More Replies...A woman that I'm friend with is exactly like this. Also, she's single...
I do like tall men... They can reach the high shelves in Tesco for me... Being n****e height to them is a tad weird though...
I am 5'3". I never meant to, but all my past men have been 5'9" and shorter. Of course I would give a taller guy a chance, but there is something wonderful about being able to look into their eyes and the ability to give a kiss that is not on stairs. Shorter guys rock!!!
She probably doesn't even know the difference between 4' and 6' ..😆
Well, sir, not only does she not have to be f*****g with you, it's actually something I'd strongly advise you against.

How The Turn Tables
A woman once matched with me, and before I could say anything, she texted, "If you were taller and lost a little weight, you'd be kind of all right." Then unmatched me. I sat there baffled for a couple minutes, then went right back to my beer and bag of pork rinds.
I Forgot To Only Dress For Men
If she started laminating her eyebrows then I agree with him. Although I would never say that to someone’s face. I don’t understand that styling. I also don’t understand most eyebrow styles throughout history - let’s pluck them and make them thin, draw them on, make them arched, make them bushy… it seems so odd to me that people follow eyebrow trends.

An efficient, if ungrammatical response. I don't understand how some people are still typing as though they HAVE to respond IMMEDIATELY, and there is a set character limit. It might not be true, but people ARE going to assume that if you won't take the time to reply properly, that you won't take time to do a relationship properly.

Is It A Crime To Be Fit?
I know they're just throwing the other person's conceit back in their face, but honestly, it wouldn't be a bad dating philosophy. Most of us are average, as a rule, and our ideal partner is most likely also average. People chase shiny objects only to be disappointed and reminded of their own inadequacies. It wastes time and energy while your ideal partner goes overlooked.

After Only Texting Her For A Few Hours The Previous Night
Can someone help me with the blurred word on the last text please? Edit - thank you all, I had a brain hiccup and forgot you can click the link below!
Hopefully That Helped
Met my wife on a dating site. Been together 25 years. It can happen :)
Let me guess, you were both looking for a life long partner and not just a hook up, and you waited until at least the third date or later to have s*x? And by the second date, you had both put the app away and stopped swiping, so that you could focus on each other? You probably didn't have a lot of expectations and a really reasonable attitude about it, right? So basically you went looking for a friend and ended up with a partner? My god what dating apps have become since those days. But the apps aren't the problem.
Load More Replies...Gallery mode sign (when using Chrome) blocks quite a few of the first lines of text. Too annoying to continue reading.
The more I see these, the more I’m tempted to make a tinder account of my cat. It seems like a solid hobby.
Honestly, if I ever re-enter the dating pool (am 43, recently got out of 24-year-long relationship) I think I WOULD make a dating account of my pets, since they're part and parcel of my life and you're not divesting me from them XD (my ex tried to!) It might actually help me find someone who also loves dogs and cats XD
Load More Replies...Yep, I think I'm just fine being alone. I was with my ex for 24 years (we met when I was 18 and he was 19) so I'm not USED to being alone, and ngl I AM lonely, but dating seems HELLA terrifying these days XD
Met my partner six years ago through Plenty of Fish. She was the first person I had a conversation with once I joined. We chatted via message and I deleted the app after about 48 hours of adding it to my phone. Best app I’ve ever used! I’m obviously very glad I tried internet dating as I met her but I also look at these ^^^ types of conversations and think how much I would hate to be involved with any of those individuals! I got very lucky!
The headline is "... That Might Convince You to Stay Single." These convince me to stay married! So glad I will never, ever have to date again!
