If someone doesn't like you because of your height, then it's their loss. Don't try and change something about you so someone will like you. You are fine just the way you are and someone will come along that will like you as you.

You should just be yourself. It shouldn't matter how you look. Be confident of yourself, that's all it actually matters. If a person doesn't like your height it's their miss. Your perfect partner should like you in anyway and it should mean more since they like you for who you are but for what they see.

I don't think there is much to do when it comes to your height. Excuse me, but I think it's quite unusal for guys to have this specific height 'criterias'. I mean, preference is alright but if he is not willing to date you for your height, maybe you could talk to him and ask what he means about it. Maybe he wants to date you, or maybe you can wear high heels to absolute 'satisfy' him. I just hope he doesn't reject you for your height, that is a little silly of him if I dare to say that.

You're not too short for a guy to date you, height isn't a relevant factor when it comes to emotional/romantic involvement, if your height bothers the other person that much they're most likely not the one for you, appearance does play a role but it isn't the point of any relationship, beauty is a perspective so in my genuine opinion the only thing you can do is love yourself for who you are, discover all the good qualities and little things that make you your unique self, eventually you will find someone that doesn't care about such superficial things like your height or weight, someone who will see you for the person that you are and love all the little things you don't like about yourself, he's out there so don't lose hope.

Your physical appearance should not affect your relationship if you truly wish to be together and love each other.

It must be true that many girls prefer a tall guy to date, but you must think that when it comes to being with a person you're fond of, those trivial things don't matter anymore. So you're too short? Then make up to it by improving on your other qualities! If you can't change one quality, then improve your other points. At the end of the day, your girl won't be minding your height, but your heart.

Youre not too anything, all of your unique differences make you you! And your height could end up being what the right guy notices first! You never know. So if youre short, be proud and own it, because thats just one thing about you, there is so much more to you than your height and the right guy will hang around long enough to realise that :) be proud. Be you. And the right guy will come to you.

What do you mean by you are too short? Is this based upon your perceptions of what is "too short" and you therefore cannot date him? Or has the guy expressed that he will not date you because you are too short? If it is the latter, then why would you want to be with someone who had rejected you because of your height (an attribute you cannot control?). Focus on developing the attributes that you can control (like your character and personality), and I'm sure there will be a guy out there who will appreciate all of you, including your shortness!

Take it from someone who is just under 5 feet (and that is with fluffy socks on!). There is no such thing as too short for a guy to date--- the bottom line is you need to embrace your height and accept that its part of who you are and if the receiving end cannot appreciate it then it wasn't meant to be. There are couples who end up together where there is over a foot difference between the guy and a girl---both the girl being taller and the guy being taller---and same with guy guy. and for girls to feel the need to hide their height or wear 4 inch heels to meet the standards of a guy, then its not the right guy to begin with. the person who will love you for you and you for them won't notice your height and the ones who do are just passing ships that were never meant to be to begin with so you got off lucky that you didn't waste more time than you had to to find that out!

Did someone tell you that? Because height and attraction is in the eye of the beholder. Just because one person doesn't want to date a "short" person, doesn't mean someone else won't find that attractive.
