Who will you prefer to marry? Someone shorter than you or taller than you?

Height may not become an issue when the right person comes your way. You might not even remember at some point that you were talking about marrying someone this height or that height. It even some time happen that the opposite becomes the actual outcome. It does happen. Then you find yourself saying it doesn’t matter, because you’ve found your true love.

But in answering the question for the purpose of discussion, I will prefer marrying someone shorter than me by at least a few inches. But certainly not a very short person, I wouldn’t want that. I don’t think I will be comfortable marrying someone taller than me. I just don’t see myself in that scenario. I might feel emasculated and dwarfed walking side by side with such a person. I can only marry such a person if she is only just a few inches taller say 4 inches or less.

What's your take? Would you marry someone shorter or taller? Let us know.

 

As a woman and a rather short one at that (5'1"), I'd prefer to marry a taller man. Preferably, less than 6 foot. Any more than that and talking would be a pain in the neck.

 

Marrying someone really shorter than me, is a no no for me. Few inches shorter is okay. Personally I would want my children to be of at least average height.

 

Your are right, height really doesn't matter in love. I'm not that tall and I'm hoping to marry a guy taller than me. I want my children to be tall so that they can join the basketball team when they grow up. You're right, I'm a basketball fan and I love basketball but I can't join the team because I'm short.

 

My personal take on this is that height is just a number. There are more important attributes to consider besides height. I feel that we should emphasize on whether the man or woman in question is suitable to be our lifelong companion.

With that being said, I'm fine with marrying a woman who is taller than me as long as both of us are truly in love. As someone who is above average in height, I rarely have to take height into consideration when looking for a potential wife thus far.

 

Lets dial back the marriage, back to the dating stage would i engage myself in the possibility that down the line the chick that i'm dating is and the size of an big bird and im not even a Burt and Ernie stacked on top each other"heck no" ill take em big, small, thick, skinny, short or tall you can find love in all the wrong places and its not in that cabinet that you cant reach that should be the deal breaker i'm a whooping 6' even and 185 lbs' "on a good day" As long as she not palming a basketball and pushing 7" feet dunking on college kids don't scare me none.

 

Interesting question. I don't think I've ever given much thought in this and yet, I have never dated anyone shorter than me. Same height as me, maybe. But then again, I'm not exactly tall. 161cm is pretty tall where I'm from. Now that I think about it, I would date some taller or at least the same height; never shorter. I like that I could be under his arms and not the other way around. No specific reason, I just feel comfortable that way.

 

Height or weight doesn't matter honestly, the primary concern with regards to height is only about sex. But there are a lot of sex positions that support people with height differences and by reading the articles they have written they are enjoying their sex life as a couple. Overall let us not always look on the physical aspects of people because in the end that won't even matter once you reach an old age both of you will have the same wrinkles.

 

My future husband will definitely be someone taller than me. I am 5"8 so dating let alone marrying someone shorter than me just would not feel right. I tend to be more attracted to someone who has a few inches on me. So what happens if I find myself attracted to someone shorter than me? While there are plenty of good looking, intelligent men that are shorter than me, I doubt it could go past friendship. Not to sound shallow by any means but I would much rather look up to my future mate instead of looking down on him... Pun intended .

 

Height is one of those unspoken dating and marriage huddles most people have to jump. Each individual has his or her own preference...some want towering people like O'Neal others short people like Kevin Hart.

Personally I prefer a lady with average height so that she can look up at me...literally. When she has heels we stand eye to eye. A lady you can tango with comfortably.

 

Height matters when love fades, which is an inevitable occurrence. I think someone should marry a person who they would still find attractive in a way, even when the love gets a little stale. A shorter man for a woman would almost always lead to him feeling emasculated, I used to date shorter men all the time.

 

According to me height doesn't really matter as long as there is profound love. True love is when when you find someone who is willing to love you for who you are not what you are not and will never be.
