Does anyone else consider the gap between 5'11" and 6' to be a greater gulf than science would have us believe?
Or just those of us stuck frustratingly just below the 72-inch height line?

Wut!
Someone on OKCupid wants me but he's 5'7". If it wasn't for the height I'd go there.

Oh yeah, Blousie
You totally don't want anyone under 6 foot. That would just be too tragic for words.

My missus is 5'10"
and somehow she's put up with a boyfriend who's under 6' for 9 years, 3 months and 28 days

Same height would be ok.
A couple of inches taller is just a pipe dream.

Of course it does
It's hard enough convincing people she's with me as it is, can you imagine how hard it'd be if I was pocket-sized too?

mr b3th is 5'9"
When I have heels on I'm a tiny bit taller than him. I can see his bald spot.

I think my next one will have to be taller.

I'm convinced that Mrs V was taller when we were first getting together
I suspect that she did it deliberately to lure me in.

my ex was about 5'1" though, so anything was an improvement
(, Tue 7 Jun 2011, 14:19, Reply)
Yeah, I'm pretty sure mr b3th was taller before, too.
But he is old, so he's probably shrinking.
