i dont reckon the age thing is a big issue, really. as long as he isnt immature and you guys get on well then it really doesnt matter who is older than who. as for the height thing, it really is a personal choice. i do understand what you mean about it being a bit weird cause i reckon i might feel the same way (i am lucky cause my bf is a bit taller than me!) and it would suck even more because if you wear heels than you are even taller, lol!! But as with the age thing, it really isnt an issue. if you get on well with this guy, i think you should give him a chance .... it could be the best thing you've ever done :)  |

The age, if its a few months, no problem, I dated a guy that I was 6 months older then. But I am 5'2, its rare, but if a guy is shorter then he, hes pretty darn short! Some people it doesn't bother, but I HATE it when people in general are shorter then me, it makes me feel weird when I look down to talk to them. And I don't like dating a guy who looks as if my little nice could beat him up. That may sound mean, but it just bugs me.  |

I think all that matters is the guy, not the height or the age. If you really like him then you should be able to look past all of the little stuff(no pun intended :oP). It might bug you at first, but you'll eventually get used to it :o)  |

If you like a person it shouldn't make any difference whether they are, short, tall, fat or thin. It is the person inside that person you should be looking at...(",)..

Years have wisened me to understand that, what's inside a person's heart and head is more important than how old or young they are, what they look like or the size of their bank account. I want someone who will hold my hand through the good or bad times. To do that, he only needs to be able to read my silent thoughts.  |

I'm 30 and my bf is 22, so yeah I'd go out with someone younger. I'm only 5'2, so I don't usually encounter guys shorter than me (lol). I'm pretty sure it wouldn't matter though if I really cared about the person.  |

BTW, the man I adore is several years older than me. I think it bothers him more than me. ;) |

I think all that matters is how much you like the guy  |

I like guys who are taller than me, so I if I was single, I would go out with taller guys and guys that are older than me.  |

My Husband is Shorter but older than me. But to be truthful I've dated Shorter and WAY younger men then me. I like what I like, plain and simple. Looks do matter, as it what people like for looks. I personally think that there is a person for every person and what some people find un-attractive, some one else get's drivin crazy for.  |

Well, I am half an inch from 6' and my husband is barely 5'8". I was attracted to because of his funny personality. The height wasn't even thought of. ~Sairth |

Hmmm..Are you uncomfortable with the height thing? Because to me I don't think age makes much of a difference..Once I went out with a guy who was like five inches shorter than me and he was a little younger..  |

im 6'1 thought i was 6'3 but i was measured wrong,lol. but anyways im 6'1 and my b/f is 5'5. so yeah i would. the size difference is only a big deal if YOU make it a big deal. as for age. now thats a whole nother story. i would ONLY if i felt he were mature enough to be with me. i have had my share of younger guys who were just a waste of my time and energy. :D:D  |

To put it totally bluntly and honestly, I prefer to not date guys who are shorter than me because then I feel like I can't wear heels or anything around them and it makes me feel like a monster! (Being 5'8 doesn't help! LOL) Also, I don't normally date younger guys either because a lot of times they are not mature enough. However, I have in the past met guys who were shorter than me that I totally fell for, and it didn't matter to me anymore that they were shorter. If you have good enough chemistry, things like that won't make any difference. You might be surprised by what you find if you date this guy, so don't shut him out because you think he's not your type.  |

I'm with Breezy, I prefer to not date guys shorter than me 'cause I wear heels a lot and I guess it looks kinda silly and it makes the guy all insecure if I'm towering over him. But I'm willing to make exceptions for someone I really like. I dated my last bf on and off for about a year and he was 2 inches shorter than me (a year younger than me too)  |
