Good day! I'm just wondering if in a relationship there is some sort of height requirement cause most of the time i see man taller compared to woman. Does it really follow like that for I for one am a bit shorter compared to my partner.

If it is a concern purely on physical appearance then I guess it would matter. It is quite ideal that the man should be taller than the woman. But of course, relationships are harmonious when the parties complement each other in all aspects and not only physical. :))

Yeah, if your more concerned about how you will look like when you are together, it does matter. But, you shouldn't give much importance to that since it is not the first thing considered in relationships.

I dont think it will matter as long you both love each other it doesn't matter. As long as you both consider the physical aspect it really fine that way and you still enjoy being each other that was most important.

Oh i don't think it matters when you fall inlove but i think that i preffer a taller man! I like a big strong man, like to look after me! =) I don't think it's that weird to have a taller girlfriend, i know alot of people that have smaller boyfriends. If you are inlove height doesn't matter. That's a shallow person.

Sweetie, let grandma tell you now. Nothing physical matters in any relationship. As i told neil above, it is not important at all. Never even think about it. It's a waste of energy. Long, tall, thick, thin, whatever. Just be happy, be yourself and enjoy your life with your partner, okay.

There is no "height requirement". It varies for different people. For some, height is an important factor when dating and for others, it doesn't matter. Personally, I don't want to date a guy who is too much taller or shorter than me. I'm 5'7" and I wouldn't want to be with a guy who is more than about 3-5 inches taller or 2-3 inches shorter. It makes me uncomfortable to stare up or down at other people. Also, if I want to kiss him, I don't want to have to stand on my tip-toe or crouch down to do so ;)
