I catch myself being much more shallow online than I am in real life. Probably if people were meeting you in person, your smile or your sense of humour or something would catch their eye and they would, er, overlook your height. Online, people just say, "oh he doesn't match my fantasy completely" and move on. I am ashamed to admit I've done it myself - stopped contacting a perfectly nice man after finding out he was balding, on one dating site (not this one), for example. So yes, people really are that shallow (not just women, I suspect.)

I couldn't agree with you more. I am 5' 9" which is supposed to be average for a man. When I was single and dating, even women who were 5' 7" said I was too short for them. People post things like, race unimportant, or that it doesn't matter what you look like. Then they dump you when you are not 6 feet tall. The funniest thing is that many women who are 6 feet tall or talller will not date anyone who is at least 6' 2". Then they complain that they can't find anyone. Of course not, the tall men don't mind dating women who are short. So that leaves the shallow tall women all alone. But they would rather be alone than with someone shorter than them.

Representing for the short asses here! lol

Seems pretty common for women to not dig the shorter guys, i think its kinda like guys and breasts, not all of them are fixated on it, but they deffinetly appreciate the bigger/taller ones.

LOL where have you been hiding for two years Mr Super Witty? Although, you can be a tad cruel while doing it, as seen above.
