Generally, I would like to go out with a guy taller than me. Not shorter than me. I'm 5'5" tall.\n\n(I noticed all your questions are all about SHORT & TALL... whata whota?)

depends, not all girls like the same thing.  personally, i would date a taller guy. why? mayb because i'd feel safer around him more than a short guy.  or mayb i think it doesn't look right when a girl dates a shorter guy.  i'd say both.

Just because a guy is shorter than you isn't a good reason not to be with him. You said your still in school, but you didn't mention how old you and this guy are. If you two are in middle school (5th - 8th grade) then you guys are just starting puberty and he's not necessarily going to be short and skinny forever, and there's a good chance he's going to get a lot taller and put on more weight and muscle. If you guys are in the beginning of high school (9th - 10th) that would put you roughly in the middle of puberty, he might grow a little taller and he still might put on a bit of muscle. If you guys are near the end of high school (11th - 12th) than you guys are nearing the end of puberty, in which case he's not going to get much taller (maybe a 1-4 inches if he has a late growth spurt) and he might stay skinny, but maybe he'll get into lifting weights and build up some muscle.\n\nYou mentioned that you're "tall and chubby"... did you ever think that maybe he's under the same pressure not to be with you because of the way YOU look? The fact that he likes you and asked you out means that he's more interested in hanging out with you and getting to know you, than being concerned about how you look. There's a good chance that his friends and other guys around him are going to give him crap (if they haven't already started) about liking you. \n\nChubby is a middle ground between "Average" Weight and "Fat", and most guys your age don't acknowledge this weight class. To them your either "Average" or "Fat", their is no middle ground. Right now this guy is interested in you, which means he thinks your nice and your "Average" weight, but the guys around him maybe saying, "Dude, she fat. How can you like her?" If you snub him because of his height, he's going to bail, and he's not going to like you as much as he did.\n\nIf you really want to be with this guy, then looks shouldn't matter. You have a chance to be in a happy relationship with someone that is interested in being with you. The fact that you said yes when he asked you out shows you like him, if his looks were such a problem you should have said no. \n\nHe's able to accept the fact that you don't look perfect, and is willing to be with you. Why can't you do the same?

I have the same problem.  I'm 6'1.  As long as he doesn't have a Napoleon complex, then go for it.  You see fat girls with skinny guys all the time, why not a tall girl with a short guy.\n\nAs a friend told me once, it's all the same when they are flat on their back...

Without seeing you, it's difficult to say.  From the numbers, you could be anywhere from "just right" to "a little thin".  \n\nMost guys don't care how tall you are.  However, we think/know that you care how tall we are, so we are reluctant to approach a taller woman.  If you're interested in a guy shorter than you, let him know.

Hey there,\n\nAll heights are acceptable, no matter what. I felt exactly the same way as you when I was younger. I am 19 and i'm 4'9 and my feet are really small and my figure frame is tiny as well. You should be happy with your body, its really fun to be short and a lot of advantages do come with it. And as for guys and dating, you will find a guy who will love you for who you are and he will love your height as well. Well when people are different, I guess a lot of people will be self conscious or stare when they are around different persons. It seems to happen all over the world. I guess its human nature for us to be self conscious about someone different around us until we get to know them.

Not usually, but sometimes. All girls like different things, just like you do. Some like mustard, some like ketchup... theres no straight line across the board. Your shorter then some people but taller than others. Some girls will take your short friends, or take your tall ones. It's all based on the individual. I'm 6'3 and I have NEVER noticed any sort of extra luck with the ladies. So I dont think you have to worry about it because theres tons of girls out there right now thinking of her perfect 5 foot 8 inch guy.

let him know how you feel! you never know he might have the same feelings for taller girls. the world is full of surprises, you really won't know unless you take the risk.

my boyfriend is only 1/2 an inch taller than me. when we were first dating he said how much he loved that we were the same size, (his old girlfriend was like half his size.) but i don't like to wear heals around him too much because i'll be taller, (and all my friends are really short too!!) but my boyfriend says that he finds it a total turn on when i wear heals and am taller than him!!!\n\ni think it depends on the guy, but i think most guys don't care. and if they are crazy about the girl than the size doesn't matter at all!!

sucks to work with the person you are married to.  You see them 24/7.   Not much to talk about after work, because each of you already knows what happened.  The height thing has no bearing.  I am only 5"...my daughter swears 4'11"...but I have almost ALWAYS dated guys who were no less than 6'3".  I never planned that, it just happens.  My current husband is only 5'10" and the guy that wants me after we divorce, if we do, is only like 5'8".  You need to look at common interests, common goals, morals, but mostly you just need to see if you can picture yourself with this person 30 or 40 years down the road.

I wouldn't avoid dating someone just because she was a little person, but it would probably be unlikely that I would strike up a conversation with a little person I hadn't met to try to get a date with her.  Among many features that I use, consciously or subconsciously, to determine who is attractive would usually include her being no more than about 9 inches shorter or 2 inches taller than me.

Yes and No under the right circumstances.\n\nif the taller guy is buffer or more athletic than the short guy than yes ofcourse.\n\nbut if the tall guy is a skinny wimpy twig and the short guy is all buff and athletic than no.\n\ni dont think there is any statistics about this. but because the odds are completely random. than there is no answer for this question. you got the same chance as running into a strong short person as a strong tall person.

I reallydont think that is it. if that is the reason he is really shallow. do you want to be wih someone like that? i think you should talk to him anyways. find out. just start a general conversation with him. if he seems not interested, take a deep and accept that. there are a lot of guys that like shorter girls. height usually isnt a issue anyway. \n\ngood luck sweetie! i hope everything works out for you and your crush.\n(i'm only 5'3 my hubby is 6'3)

I feel that it is not the hight of a person, it is how much you actually feel about that person. I know that I have been with people that are shorter then me. I actually fell for that person.It shouldn't matter how high the person is but what you feel about that person.
