I'll admit, here on city Data there are a lot of threads about your size preferences as it relates to how big, small, tall or short a potential mate is.
At the end of the day does someone's height and body size rally matter?
To some of you it's a deal breaker but does that mean your relationship will not work because the person is short and you like'm tall?
My type is usually medium build, 5'8'' or so (I'm short, so 5'8'' is quite tall for me), dark hair, green/brown eyes, etc.
That said, if I hit it off with a guy who's 5'4'' (or 6'4''), blonde, skinny (or chubby), in the end it really doesn't matter at all. Sure, there has to be some sort of physical attraction, but I'm not going to reject a great guy because he has the wrong hair color or is too short/tall. Multiple times I've had massive crushes on guys who looked nothing like how I'd describe my "type", just as I've been bored to death with guys who were (physically) right up my alley.

Not really because when it comes down to it. The people who are not superficial marry for love and sometimes your partner doesn't fit the "wish list".
I always dated tall, athletic, lean guys and my b/f is still taller than me but he's broad and just height / weight proportioned. He is not the picture of the guys I used to date but, everything about him spoke to me and it turned out to be a good match. He's a handsome man, great personality, hard worker, smart and funny.
At the end of the day, looks fade and you better have something really great going for you.
I don't think size is a deal breaker. It's just a preference, but at the end of the day, their character and personality is way more important. Anyway, what difference does size make if you're horizontal?
Maybe I'm a horrible person, but I think size matters. Yes, it's personal prefernce. I'm not extraordinarily tall (5'7'') but I've found that dating guys who are my height or only slightly taller just don't work for me. It's really just a matter of what I'm attracted to.
Is it a deal breaker? Not sure - there have always been other deal breakers.

Agree. It's not a deal breaker [as long as she is not at the extreme end of the both ends of the spectrum]. I have no problem dating a woman who is overweight, to an extend, or a woman who has tiny micro weeny tiny boobs, or if she has a totally flat bum, as long as she is the right person for me, I can overlook all over that. Same with height, as long as she isn't a 6'4 giant or a 4'2 midget, I'm cool with anything in between.
I have preferences [like big round bum, nice tasty thighs, sexy legs etc ] but it's not a requirement or a deal breaker. Just a preference, that is all.

A lesson some of us learn the hard way. When you're young, it's easy to become enamored with the hottie to the point where you overlook a lot of their negative personality traits. But imagine marrying them, even having kids together. When the looks fade, you realize you're stuck with someone you don't really care for as a person. If you're a guy, I can understand wanting to be with someone who isn't taller or heavier than you. But beyond that, I think it's a bit silly to be fixated on size. Like other posters have said, you sometimes discover the best person for you looks like nothing like what you imagined you'd end up with.

Um, at that point the size of something might be an issue.
You must be referring to something that's vertical in this position.
