  • Why lie? If it is an issue then open communication is the best plan -- just tell him. He might have insights as to how to deal with it that would put her heart at ease.
  • I am almost 5 10" I have dated a few really short men in my day... I find that due to the differences, that they are twice as charming, they try harder and are rather accomidative and great in bed. (they are not all as small downstairs as their height might imply) So tell her to rethink her choice. It is shallow and she could be throwing away a great thing.
  • If it really bothers her she should maybe ask him to stay friends, one friend more is almost always better. And on the other hand if the man isnt good with the height he is usually better in everything eles ;)
  • My 5'7" sister married a 5'2" man. She refused to date him for 2 years because of his height, but they were great friends. Eventually, she matured enough so that the height no longer bothered her. He has been the perfect husband for her. She shouldn't lie. If she really wants to lose out on a great guy because of his height, she should tell him so. It will make it much easier for him as she's probably not the kind of woman he wants either.
  • If your friend has issues with a man's height, why should she care how she "breaks it to him"? It seems a very shallow reason to not date someone, in my opinion.
  • she needs to grow up.
  • She should just tell him the truth. If she is dumping him for such a shallow reason, he deserves to know, so he won't think it's because of some real flaw of his.
  • I'd tell him that I didn't see the chemistry thing happening for us to be more than just friendly. It is after all the truth. The attraction isn't there. Whether it be lack of height (from her perspective) too tall, too muscly, not muscly enough, the way he looks when he smiles,tanned, fair, long hair, short hair, the sound of his voice, they way he laughs, walks etc etc etc etc. We all have our own ideas of what is appealing to us. Doesn't make us wrong or shallow. We either feel attraction or don't.
  • he has probalby heard it before and hearing many times just might give him a bad feeling about taller women .... so if she really has to break up with him, don't say it's about heigth....because it screws up things for the next girl whose taller than him.....beliee, I know...
  • Quite simply, she tells him the truth yo...
  • Your friend does not deserve this man with all these good qualities. I hope he tells her that she is too tall for him.
