Washing my hands in the bathroom yesterday, up walks this guy to wash his hands. He is maybe 5'5" and could not have weighed more than 110 lbs....so I am TWICE his size. Seriously I was bigger than this guy when I was in 7th grade. My first thought was the women of SO and how in the world could women find this guy physically attractive, I mean he was tiny. Well guess what I had to look and sure enough he had a wedding ring on...so apparently someone does. By the way I have noticed several lil guys with wedding rings on.
Clearly this board has skewed my perspective on short dudes because now when I see them I feel sorry for them and glad for myself at standing over 6' tall. I have come to realize this thought process is just ridiculous. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder (cliche I know) He could just have easily been feeling sorry me because I don't have a full head of hair or that I am allergic to the sun..lol.
If you figure the point of this post please let me know because I really not sure what it is. Maybe it was to let you know that this board affects my view on the world other than women and dating...or maybe that you should give the lil guys a chance. There is more to a good man than being able to reach the cereal box on top of the fridge without a stool.
OK that is one of the funniest posts ever. I cant put it ahead of GOZ country music burn post, but I literally LOL at my desk just now. Well done Doris!
Well JM, to be fair, we don't know what this woman looks like. I have 2 guy friends that are around 5'5 and 130 pounds (ok one is probably less than that and the other one slightly more) and one is seriously dating a woman taller and heavier than him and the other one is dating a woman shorter and lighter than him. It's not hard to find women who are under 5'5. I am 5'6 and I am taller than a lot of men and women.

DDH was 5'5" and I am 5'4" and I would never describe him as an oompa loompa, but that's probably because he wasn't orange. At 5'8", my older son (15) got the single tall gene on either side of the family (I have one tall brother) and has already outgrown all of his father's clothes. I hope he isn't treated like a circus freak at our Christmas gathering this year (ddh was the tallest of his siblings, too, I think).
The point of this is that you don't listen to The Kuus when she talks of her love for short, wispy guys.
I'm with Kuus. By your definition, BF falls into this category at 5'6ish and 130lbs. I'll just be way TMI here and say that if sex with him is any indicator of what kind of "love" the Oompa Loompas are throwing around, then I am happy to do my part and give them some lovin'.
I'm curious, do you ever pick HIM up and carry him into the bedroom? Hahahahah. I promise I am teasing...I wish I knew how to turn off my sarcasm. Honestly good for you and that he makes you happy.
I find it amusing your first thought when you saw the guy was the women of SO.
I was always attracted to tall men (XH is 6'1") and I married one who is 5'8" and I find him incredibly sexy. ::shrugs shoulders::
Just goes to show that it's all in that attraction to someone which cannot be explained. I guess I should cut the short guys some slack and never say never!
My problem is my five inch heels that make up most of my wardrobe!
