Ah , the male ego is really a sensitive thing underneath all that gusto. My profile says I am 6'4" and look like a greek god, I personally feel that is quite close to the truth laugh

That is true, but a woman can camouflage a few pound............ but there is no camouflaging your height if you are a small man ................ unless you buy a pair of Slade`s boots rolling on the floor laughing

No, but i had one and we were like little&large grin and he had the cheek to have a go at me because i would not go out with him again. i copied and pasted below ........well in my mind all short men hare like Terrier`s................. they wont let go when they get their teeth into somehing .................. !!!!



Small Man Syndrome:

1) Where a person of short stature believes they have the ability to take on any person at any task. It is a general cockiness that is in a short person to replace the lack of height. Beware of anyone with short man syndrome.

2) The obnoxious, chauvinistic, arrogant attitude often taken on by short men -- seems to be an attempt to make up for their short stature.

I have met girls concious of their height thinking about how some men may feel about dating taller women. May have fudged an inch or two but never to the extreme of Jimbo's ex.

rolling on the floor laughing It's also funny when they knock off 10 years of their age and you walk past them because you don't recognise them from their photo.

Yeah, I wouldn't notice...doh

It happens alright! Never can trust the profiles on dating sites! I met a girl of a dating site(not this one). Her profile had listed "average" weight! Lets just say she was easily the average of 15 stone and 25 stone!!

Average to me means about normal weight, and that would depend on the height and build of a woman ..........or if she has a small or large frame conversing

But women wearing heels is normal .................... to me there is just something not right in a man wearing heels (It would be a deal breaker for me) ................. I like tall men heart wings heart wings

Yeah I thought the same but it turned out completely differently!! Not just women thoguh! I'd say quite a few women have went to meet fellas of "average weight" and been met with beer bellies down to the knees!!
