I pretty much get that women really do prefer very tall guys. I feel short at 5'6" and pretty much resigned to feeling a bit inferior so it doesn't faze me as much.
Thank you for all the replies, I'd like to keep hearing more.

i'm only 5 foot 3, but i managed to chase a girl who's like 5 foot 5......so seriously..it's about ur personality...
make her laugh, make her know you care, make her feel special, make her feel like she's been looked after, make her know that your always available for her to call, good or bad moments.....
yeh.... as long as she feels all that.....any girl in teh world will fall for you..
bring up some confidence.....
but to be very honest....i do see problems with my height , like it's justa big disadvantage while the average height for a guy is like at least 5 foot 7......
just wait for the opportunity ....be patient, then you'll hav the opportunity to show what's good about you....hmmm hope this helps...

I'm personally not picky, its more on how the guy and I get along and laugh with eachother. is there any certain girl your going after? you should just put it in the back of your mind and just be yourself around any women. hope this helps.

To go out with me a guy must be taller then me so at least 5'10''
Since I am so tall there is no maximum height, but I can understand that if a girl is 5'0 then a 7' 10 guy might be a bit much.
Basically, since girls come in all heights, they are all looking for guys of different sizes too.
Good Luck!! xx

 It really doesn't matter how tall a guy is. My ex was only an inch taller than me, which I didn't mind at all.
It's different for everyone. Some like tall, short or medium - for me personally its about a guys personality, NOT their height. For example I've got a crush on a guy who is 6ft and I'm 5ft3in just a tad of a difference!

 There no minnimun height of a guy really.
Some people like shorter guys and other people want taller guys. We are all different and like different things.
I'm 5'5 and my boyfriend is 5'11 but i wouldn't really care if he was short because i love him and its whats on the inside that really matters.

I am almost 5'4 so not that tall really and my husband is 5'7 I really enjoy this, I think we fit well together but I like that he's still bigger than me. I've danced with guys who are considerably taller and it can feel rather awkward at times but as I said I wouldn't toss out a good relationship or a good guy because he was too tall or too short.

I dont really mind guys who are tall. Ive liked smaller guys than me and taller. I prefer a guy to be a little bit taller than me and not smaller but I like personality more than looks.

 This question is going to have a different answer for everyone, its entirely subjective.
I mean, my ex husband was 5'8 (five feet, 8 inches. I'm not on metric like our UK Agony Aunts). My current boyfriend is 6'2. I'm only 5'5... so there is a huge range in height for me regarding who I date.
Some girls will prefer their guys to be tall, some don't really care. Some super tall girls have gotten over trying to find a guy taller than them, and focus instead on the person and not so much on what they look like.
Likewise, some guys prefer to date petite, tiny girls and others like a tall gal who could be a super model.
There is no set answer to this. If you think a girl likes you, then your height must not be a problem.

I like a guy who's the same height as me or just a maximum 3 inches taller than me. Women's preference to height in men varys A LOT! And I mean A LOT. Every woman is different.
Could I ask why you ask why you asked the question? Did someone not date you because of your height??
Anyways good luck on whatever it is!

 For me I LOVE tall guys. I'm 5'8 so my ideal guy is a guy that will allow me to wear 9cm heels and not tower over him!I don't think I've ever really encountered too tall and if I liked a guys personality it wouldn't matter in the slightest.
