Height difference and dating

Hi all, I was thought I'd mention some thoughts running through my head and see if others can give there thoughts.

I have been asked by a lovely lady on a date. She is 5ft 9 and I am 5ft 8, so she is an inch taller than me. She has said she isn't sure how she feels about that, but she has said she really likes me though.

It does bother me a bit, but I think it's more because I am nervous and probably over thinking stuff. For me I am worried that she may see me as less manly and not able to look out for her when needed. And I guess I am a little worried what others may thing.

Any other you guys date smaller guys/taller ladies.

I think this is just pre-date nerves ha!

Thanks

I wouldn't worry about it - if she likes you she likes you as you are - I'm taller than Steve with my heels on and it's never been a problem! Crack on! Z

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

If you worry about it you won't stand tall - that is nothing to do with height!

You're worried about an inch. Thats hardly even noticeable?!

Puff ya hair up Joey Essex style if needs be?!.lol.

If she likes you it should be for who you are inside. Op you definitely in my opinion over thinking it.

Bollox to what others think, why should you!!.

Another question as well as the original, is we were chatting having a laugh and firing questions at each other. The question came where I was asking ok are you a lady who kisses on first date? She responded with she is shy and old fashioned and likes the guy to lead. his left me confused a bit, I get that when the time arises I make the move then, but does this mean yes she would on a first date or not :/

I haven't been on a date in about 7 yr so kinda rusty!

Just go and enjoy yourself

Sometimes time is really better spent doing than thinking about doing.

If it's meant to be, it will be

Have fun

But its a date not a wedding. I think you might be over-thinking it.

Go, enjoy!

You seem to over think alot of things. If you want something go for it instead of putting problems in the way

... agreed, if it feels natural not forced then do it, go with the flow.

If she does mention sex or kissing on a first date tell her you're Not that kind of guy and want to be respected in the morning.

I'm 5'6..and Ive met 6ft women..if I was in any way concerned about my size in any department I probably wouldnt chance my arm as much.

but Hey each to their own, some women like tall men just as a preference

but it never means that someone taller will give better sex than someone shorter as some would lead u to believe

the difference of 1inch ffs...now that IS just ludicrous in my opinion

You're a good looking man and you obviously care about the ladies welfare. I suggest that at the beginning and end of the evening you kiss her on the cheek, its friendly but not pushy.

Good luck, I hope you enjoy your date

If there is a spark and you get on ... Kiss her

Im sure once your lips are locked you won't be worrying about height
