Why is height so important to girls? Why does it matter so much?

  • so i am 17 and 5 foot 2 inches(this is as tall as ill ever be) 130 pounds and muscular and i am good looking. i have a great personality, i am funny, intelligent, open minded, adventurous, honest,nice, caring and generally just a great guy to be around. i also like to travel and am a pretty worldly person to be so young and i love art and photography. also i am spoiled so i would do the same for a girlfriend if i had one. everyone i meet instantly loves me. so why is it that i fall into the friend zone every time i like a girl? and one girl even told me that if only i was taller i would be perfect and she was 2 inches taller than me so what's the deal? why does it seem like all girls want tall guys even the short ones? so what height should i go for, short, tall, same height?


  • cuz girls like the feeling of protection and when a guy is bigger it makes them feel protected.

    also wen the guy is taller its like they are the man in the relationship. sence weve been raise that men are taller then women.


    im going out with a guy whos the same height as me idc lol.



    if they wont date you then they arent ment to be no reason to pine over girls who dont want you.


  • you should go for short and the same height. Girls like a guy who is either her height or at least as tall as them because like me no girl wants to have to bend down to kiss a guy, no offense but it is a little embarassing. i had a guy that i dated and he was shorter then me im 5 foot 8 inches and he was like leprechaun and when i kissed him i had to bend down and it hurt my back. so i would find some one shorter or the same height


  • short man=short penis


  • shorter or the same height... girls usually like to look up at a boy.... its kinda of crazy for a guy to look up at a girl... girls like someone that can look over them....


  • Not all girls care about that but good luck

  • Im 17 and only 4"10 its not so important for me.......love Katie.


  • Maybe you're the picky one. I like mines short and cute


  • You also sound extremely conceited...maybe that's another reason you're not boyfriend material. Either that or, you can't pull the trigger.


  • she dosnt like bending down to kiss YOU ps you seem kind of full of yourself


  • In a relationship the guy is usually taller than the girl. Sometimes it's a security issue, and most people don't want to be different. There are also women out there that think that a man is more masculine if they're taller. My mother is taller than my father, and they're married because they're in love. Whoever says that you're not good enough because you're not tall enough isn't the one for you. There are many girls that don't care...you just have to find the right one. Also, many girls wear heels, and they don't want to be a giant compared to their man. If you realize, in many relationships the guy is much taller than the girl because when wearing heels, they would be about the same height. As long as you're confident, i'm sure you'll be fine. Overconfidence doesn't help much though. Just remember that it is the same for the girls that are taller than most guys - they aren't accepted much in relationships either. They wouldn't feel comfortable wearing heels around their guy either. So, remember both sides feel unfortunate, but you're really not. You've just got to keep your head up, and look for the right girl. Good luck and I hope this helps!

  • You obviously aren't getting the central concept of having a girlfriend. It is completely natural that a girl would want a boyfriend taller than she. I'm sorry, but that's a fact of life for most relationships. Why? What is the role of a man in a relationship? The protector, someone to lean on, someone who takes care of me, someone to look up to etc. Anything a girl would want physically in a man is usually unconditionally to be taller than herself.


  • Not all girls feel that they have to be with someone taller than them, many do though. It is a secure thing, they like to look up to the guy they are dating, or they feel protected if they are bigger and taller.

    But...there are many other girls out there that would love to be with you so hang in there. You have a lot to offer and some lucky girls will find that out one day.


  • I always wanted to date someone I was taller than especially in heels. I think that looks like a mafia dude and a supermodel LOL. Any ways all girls have preferances about different things just like guys so sooner or later you will find someone and someone will find you.


  • i would say stick to girls close to your height, because honestly a girl way taller will not take you seriously!! i'm 5'8 and if you tried to talk to me...there's just no way! so yeah i say stick closer to girls around you're height because they're the least like to feel uncomfortable


  • try going for girls that are 5 feet tall. height is a big thing, girls like tall guys cause it makes them feel more protected...its weird i know, but thats just how we work


  • It doesnt matter, girls just care if your shorter than them.


  • Don't worry about it, with your qualities you have a problem getting a girl! The trick is you have to WAIT until you meet the RIGHT girl who can APPRECIATE should golden characteristics....

    Remember, all that glitters is not gold.

    and

    All that is gold does not glitter.


  • gosh i wish it didnt matter.. because i am 6 foot and this guy that is perfect for me wants to be with me but he is shorter than me and i just dont really like it.. i think its just how people see you and it shouldnt matter.. and its not really attractive when the girl is the one looking down, its a major turn off.. pfff if only society would potray it to be both genders of being the taller one


  • Some girls prefer taller guys because they feel some sense of security. Don't worry though, there are plenty of females who digg shorter guys and are not as shallow as the females who prefer taller guys.


  • you sound like a good guy, and for me it doesnt really have that much impact on me. youll find the right girl that deserves you and doesnt care about that and sees you for who you are.


  • to some girls height may matter..that's just because they are affraid of what other people might say or they are used to guys being taller then girls..a lot of people think its weird/strange to see a small guy w/a tall girl..but thats jus SOME people..just keep being you you sound like an amazing person..is she can't see past your height well that's her lose and she isn't worth it..


  • i duno i think its to do with the whole guy has to appear stronger and protect girl thing! but its just stupid!!
    people feel embarrassed aabout things lik that when theyre in their teens!! it usually changes once u get older!!
    im in the same boat but i a really tall girl and find short guys dont want to go out with girls taller than them! but isnt it different for each person?? i like this shirter guy at the moment and i think he likes me.. but i dnt no where it will go!
    taller girls are attracted to smaller guys! theyre not as gawky, and they always seem confident in themselves! think of tom cruise..! and plus there are plenty of smal girls out there who dont want to have to stand on a chair to kiss their boyfriend! seriously u hav nothing to worry about :) xx


  • You forgot to mention modest...


  • Height is important because females wear heels a lot. When we wear heels, we get taller and no girl wants to be towering over her male friend. Anyways, try and look for shorter girls if this has been an issue. We just don't like towering, I'm 5' 7'', I know the feeling but luckily my fiance is 6' 3''!!! I got lucky with his height...Good luck!


  • i think it just makes them feel safer or something. dont worry about it cause you seem like a great guy. im sure your find a girl that likes you. good luck!!

  • Well you don't sound bad to me. Height has nothing to do with how much a girl like you, although most girls do like taller guys because they feel more protected. you just need to find the right girl. Apparently the girls you are going after are not worth your time, if the only thing they care about is how tall you are. Keep looking the right one is out there.


  • Women like to feel secure and protected. Short men that weigh as much as them don't really cut it. It goes back to that saying, women like to feel safe and men like to feel needed.

    At your age, the girls are less interested in personality and more interested in looks. When you get to college this will change.


  • I guess its because we want to havea guy be protective, and if a guy is shorter than us it makes us feel like we are the ones protecting the guys.
    Thats my idea. I have always liked shorter guys anyway.


  • idk y but its just more comfortable to look up to a guy than down on him...


  • I personally don't care much about height. If a guy is cute and has a great body, I actually PREFER a guy closer to my height. Over 6 feet is just TOO TALL!

    My boyfriend now is 5'5 and 155, perfect for me! I am 5'1. The funniest thing is, he has a THING for high heels and loves it when I wear shoes that make me taller than him.

    For every girl who cares about height, there is one who doesn't. I am not into super tall men but have dated a few in spite of this. I am 5'1 and 100 lbs and have dated guys from 5'1 to 6'4 so obviously there are women out there like me!
