There was a time when I had a bad experience with taller men. As someone with mixed backgrounds, I've been rejected some times, and others just see me as a friend. Since I am shorter than most women when it comes to taller men I only see them as friends now. I have one creepy man that was taller and rejected and I always block them from online dating. I don't any interested in having a tall boyfriend since i don't see the point and make me happy that i can reject every single tall men. i would prefer short guys or avenge guy. When you not interested or not attracted to tall guy but i always seem to get message me. i skip them and they seem to be a lot taller guys then me and that i dislike it. I'm Taller men are lame , no bio, and only put their heads on their bios, making it very boring and lame. Blank bio that guys tend to be taller. That's why i don't even bother with matching with them i just blocked them instead and What do you think that i'm not interested in having a tall boyfriend would prefer a short boyfriend instead. to have common interested.

    Hi @Splatmate24 after your bad experience, you might feel that all taller men must be the same, when isn't always the case. How people behave could be down to all sorts of things, not just their height :)

    You've mentioned you're shorter than most women, how do people you're dating feel about that? Often people can make assumptions about others based on what they look like, rather than how they are as a person.

    What's important is that you feel comfortable spending time with someone @Splatmate24, as you say :)

    How someone looks can sometimes be intimidating, and if it doesn't make you feel comfortable it sounds like you're good at making that clear. Good communication is a very useful skill when dating.

    @Splatmate24

    Hi I hope your well. I was just wondering maybe if you just trying not overthink about getting a boyfriend or a date, it’ll happen when you least expect it.
    I wish you well and hope things work out for you.

    Take care ❤️

    That's quite inevitable @Splatmate24, not every connection would be right for you to be more than friends  :)
