I like girls that are tall vs short girls.


The only problem is I'm only 5 foot 6

6'6" is pretty tall for a woman. But I'm pretty sure there are guys out there for her though. There's always someone for everyone.

What is your daughter like and how old is she? Is she feminine? Is she proud of her height?

I'm only 6'1", but love wearing high heels which puts me at 6'5" or so. I found that there were plenty of men (tall and short) who had no qualms approaching me. Same could be said of men online when I was on matchmaking sites 10-15 years ago. Heck, my husband, who stands at 5'10", wrote me because he likes tall chicks and he definitely wasn't the only one.

I once had a friend who was 6-7, and the only reason we did not date is that she was pregnant at the time I met her!

I did go out with a 6-4 woman.

If the woman is attractive and comfortable with herself, to me it doesn't matter if she is five feet tall, six feet tall, or seven feet tall.

The harsh reality is that men are either 1. intimidated by a tall woman, makes them feel less masculine (looking up and turning up your chin to kiss your gf feels odd, hugging is awkward) and 2. most guys assume that she would not date him anyway simply because they're shorter.

I try not to rule anyone out based on things like race, religion, or even height. If I had a really good strong connection with a woman who was 6'6" and she felt the same way, I'd make an attempt to develop something. There might be some social or awkward hurdles but if I'm happy and she's happy then that's what matters in the end.

Tell her to just try and be personable, connect with people emotionally first, then if the person is worth her time they'll give it a shot.

I am 5'11" so I do not think your 6'6" daughter would even give me the time of the day because she would probably think I am too short, especially if she is wearing high heels where she would look almost as tall as The Big Show from World Wrestling Entertainment. Although to most women I would be considered tall, but your daughter is not like most women obviously.

6'6" is pretty tall for a Human Being period. Even most men in the world are not 6'6" or anywhere near that. Most men in the world are not as tall as the guys that you see in the NBA or the WWE.
