The other day I just noticed something quite uncommon these days...there was a couple and I noticed that the girl is taller than the guy and seeing most couples having the girl shorter(even in most romance animes I pretty much notice it) it got me thinking...What if your GF is taller than you? or for the girl's side What if your BF is shorter than you? Any Reactions Everyone?

I think if you really love each other it doesn`t matter but it`s true that it looks a bit weird. It doesn`t bother me if a boy is shorter than the girl but I myself don`t want someone shorter than me (except if I love him or it`s only a few centimeters and it`s not obvious).

my girl is a li'l taller than me.. and its kinda hard to kiss her? hahaha.. but i think right now im the taller one.. yipee!

It doesn't matter to me if she is taller or shorter than me..

hmm...it doesnt really bother me if i really really really like the guy...but usually, if it's just a simple small crush, then height sorta matters. i prefer the guy being taller than me; it's like hes always got a protective stance over me. and i think most girls like that protected feeling they get.

for me being short it really don't matter to me hehe heck five foot six would be taller than me, but if they were shorter than me, I suppose I could deal with it, because love shouldn't involve such trival things as that

Height doesn't matter.If its love,let it be.

i think that height shouldnt matter when it comes to love.... i think that appearance is more important than the rest of your relationship, then it's not love that you're looking for. It might look a different, but times are changing...... so no worries =)
m.i.a. =p

I agree that height shouldn't be a problem, especially if you like that guy A LOT. Appearances shouldn't be a boundary for love, and if the height difference isn't so great, the only thing you'll miss is wearing high heels.

I was reading Lovely Complex a few days ago, and silly me took a mini-poll around my school, asking how my friends would feel if their boyfriend/girlfriend was taller or shorter than. I found that most girls would prefer that the boyfriend be taller than them, although personally, I think that it's okay for a guy to be a bit shorter then me, but not WAY shorter. For the guys' opinions, they would prefer a shorter girl, but wouldn't mind if the girl was a bit taller.

I think that all the "have tos" and "should bes" are because of gender sterotypes: Guys want to "protect" the girl, the girl wants to be cuddled and feel safe, etc. But height shouldn't matter if it's love. Love is blind, no?

I saw a couple once where the girl must have been at least a foot taller than her boyfriend. It didnt seem to bother them any, but I wouldnt want to be with anyone thats much shorter than me. I like taller guys! Although, if you really care about them, then it shouldnt matter... Short people need love too. ^_^"

Well...umm...for me I think that it's..uhhh..kinda awkward?
From what I always see, bfs are usually taller than their gfs...

My fiance is about 6 foot tall (183cm). I am only 5'2 (159cm). He's so much taller than myself and I've been told the height difference between us makes us an "odd" couple. I don't notice it as much as I used to but it does make hugging different than with someone my own height. I think I can probably speak for many girls when I say a big strong man is really wonderful. He makes me feel so safe in his arms.

Everyone deserves love... nomatter their size, shape, color, or height. ^^

My answer to that is in short this. Height, Weight, Money, or anything should matter when it comes to love. A personality is all that should matter in the way you find love. People who share similar interests and personalities will always be happier then those that don't and thus would argue a lot.

its simple, you just can't help who you fall for. doesn't matter, or rather shouldn't matter.

i don`t really care as long as have love there

It really doesn't matter about height. I wouldn't mind having a boyfriend who's shorter than me, but it'd be impossible to find one, unless he was 10 or something. ^^; I'm really, really short.

Hmm...I've noticed that too. I don't think it should matter...but honestly, I don't think I'd want a boyfriend who was shorter than me. Unless I really really loved him and whatnot. /:

Well, I'm tall, so it's rare to find a girl taller than me. One gf was taller in boots, a few inches shorter barefoot. Didn't make a difference to me really.

I'm a pretty tall guy (6'2") and it's rare to find a girl as tall or taller than me. But honestly, I'm attracted to taller women. Though, as everyone else has said: appearences do not matter when it comes to love. With that said, I wouldn't complain if the girl for me is 6'+ lol. <3

My girlfriend likes me taller (even if it's only by 2 inches) but I don't think she would mind if she was as tall or taller than me =]

i guess that would look weird for someone isn't it?...but i think we're so used to seeing "tall man" and "short girl" together that people would mentally think it's abnormal to see a "tall girl" and "short man" together. but i don't think that would matter in a relationship, if they really love each other that is. but personally, i think i'd rather have a guy a bit taller than me..but my reason is really odd though...i want to try that digging-ur-head-into-their-chest move.....-_-'.... sadly it's not for protection or security lmfao . anyways besides that, if the guy was shorter than me i really wouldn't care

I prefer taller guys..though I have dated a guy who was a tad shorter than me xD
Really, height doesn't matter a whole lot to me,but that's just my preference.

Hmm...Lots of good replies...Well time to answer my own question...Like everyone else had said I don't regard height as a problem at such things...Actually the girls I like were an inch(I think) taller than me or just the same height as me(I'm 5'5" if anyone wants to know) if you like the person just go for it or something

lol... read all the posts.

Well, while it is true that love overrides other factors, in this case height, I'm not settling for anything less than the girl of my dreams. For me, appearance and personality are both important, and I won't settle for either one or the other. Not ever. To me, height is just as important as any other detail about the girl. She has to be within a certain range. This shouldn't pose a problem though, because I am fine as long as she is within around 6 inches from my height. (This goes both ways, taller or shorter, leaving approximately a 12 inch range) The reason behind it is because it's going to feel really awkward trying to hug or kiss someone who is a lot taller or a lot shorter.

so yeah. in short, height is an important factor to me, but there is a pretty wide range in height that I am okay with.
