You want some real advice? Stop reading relationship book garbage.
Approaching 600 posts; have 'we' perhaps not in effect written a relationship advice book?
Best advice I've heard is National Lampoon's parody on Desirderata: Deteriorata: "GIVE UP". It also includes such gems as 'you are a fluke of the universe' and 'Therefore, make peace with your god,
Whatever you perceive him to be - hairy thunderer, or cosmic muffin.'
Then again John Prine: 'To believe in this living is just a hard way to go.'
I'm 5'4 & a muscular 170 lbs. I have had several relationships with women who are my height and/or slightly shorter/taller, and a couple of the women were 3-4 inches taller than me. I PREFER a woman who is no taller than me when she is wearing heels, but it just isn't that big of a deal to me although it was more important when I was younger. I believe that the more self confident a person is, the less importance they put on being with the perfect physical specimen. I believe that many people become self conscious when out in public with someone who is shorter/taller/fatter/skinnier/different skin color, etc. because they let the Media and society tell them what is "acceptable" or "normal".Also, if two people are really "in to each other" they are less likely to care what others think.It has been my experience that it is not easy to find someone that you are truly compatible with, that turns you on sexually and has similar morals and life goals, so why make such a big deal about physical attributes?
It's funny how so many women simply assume that marrying tall men will instantly produce tall children... How wrong they are!! Marrying a tall man doesn't guarantee you a tall baby at all. If and it's a big if the family tree line has some tall men in the family they might have tall children but certainly no guarantees at all!! Tall men can easily have short children as well as average height men can have tall children it's simply if in the family tree line that there are some tall men in your tree line then you might have taller children but no guarantees. So many women are constantly short changing themselves cause they instantly think that tall automatically=tall children. A lot of women need to then prepare to be sorley dissapointed. Women don't then go balking cause you thought your oh so tall husband was going to give you tall children when you realize your children are not going to be tall. On the other hand your friend that married a guy that was obviously taller than her but not in the 6' range like so many women want they then had a tall baby. Women shouldn't simply set their standards where they will ONLY and are dead effin set on tall men cause they automatically think and assume they are going to have tall children!!

It would be best to be original and reflect who you are. Writing style etc. is one thing, but copying "this sounds good" from other profiles before you fill your own out won't yield much. No one here ... –

I hate when the gal pays then expects me to put out, especially on the first date when it's perfectly clear in my profile that I have a two date rule. Sheesh. –
