    I've liked a guy who was 5'8" before, and a guy who was 6'5"...


    I'll admit, I tend to like taller guys, but I mean it's not like I wouldn't like a guy who was on the shorter side. (as long as he was taller than me - 5'6)

    I prefer my guys the to be around the same height as me, no taller then 5' 10". I dated a guy that was 6' 5". I only felt somewhat comfortable when I had heals on so that I was closer to his height.

    I've never had an issue with guys being shorter, so I dunno how I would feel about that.

    because he has a reason to smile? or because he's that much the badass?

    I have dated shorter(though not slept with) and taller.. I have found shorter and taller men attractive.
    I guess, visual alone I tend find people close to my height (5 9) (not terribly short or freakishly short) more attractive
    - but either can have other qualitys that make them really hot height no being much of a factor to sway it.

    Nearly 60 percent of CEO of Fortune 500 companies are over six feet tall (and 30 percent are over six feet two inches. Taller people, as a group, are perceived as more intelligent, more dominant, and better leaders. But when wealth compensates, short guys aren't shortchanged. (It's mutual: men prefer shorter partners.)

    In all honesty, height does matter for me, but I *can* overlook it, IF everything else is right.

    I am 5'3'', so in order to be taller than me, or a good amount taller than me, it doesnt take much....so if you are my height or close to my height, that really is short. I like a guy around 5'9'' and up.

    They may not be the woman you want, if they only want you for your money.

    Being in a band, the winning sports team... :ack2:

    But actually, even though I tend to concurr- it's simplistic. A lot of women love to care for debilitated men. :eek:

    I think what really does it is being entirely present and taking ownership of yourself. If it's low-status--- wear the motherfucker like a royal mantle. And many women will respond.

    We all know the biggest pick up artist in history was the malcontent, starving poet.

    Sometimes I feel being loved by a woman isn't as difficult as getting a legitimate chance to get to know them. Women are constantly ellusive, avoidant, defensive, stand-offish, assuming the worst about me, sorrounded by friends who defend them, tucked in VIP rooms and other exclusive venues. And they have to be. :)

    If I can a solid second date- I'm in. :D

    If you're shorter than me, it's a no go, because I don't dig midgets.
