As a tall woman I am curious what the general thought is about height in a relationship.

I'm 5'0'', so all of the women I've been attracted to over the years have been invariably taller than me by several inches or more. Judging by the poll results here and eslewhere, height seems to be more of a deal breaker to women than to men (of course, I'm generalizing a bit and there are always exceptions). For me, it really doesn't matter at all. If the emotional connection is there, she can be a Pygmy, an Amazon, or anywhere else along the spectrum.

If I were to say that I had a personal preference, it would probably be for taller women, but that may just be a natural illusory correlation or adaptive trait stemming from the fact that I've met VERY few women who are shorter than me.

Yes, the guy should be taller when they're dating. But when they get married, the girl should be taller then.

All kidding aside, my ex-wife is 6'6" and had about an inch on me.

I've never dated a guy shorter than me but i dont think that it really matters. My choice wasnt based on height it was based on personality, so i guess it doesnt matter.

Even if she's the same size, I don't care one way or the other.

I'm 6'2" and once dated a beautful woman who was 6'5". It was rather cool; it didn't bother me and she was certainly used to being with shorter men. The communication and ties we shared were what made our relationship a pleasure.

I dated a guy who was about the same height as me. When I wore heels, I towered over him. He was a very sweet guy, but the height thing really bothered me.
