The most important thing? That would be a pretty shallow relationship requirement. It's true that people have certain opinions as to what they consider attractive, but to say that it's the "most important thing"... I can't really see a stable, lasting marriage being based on height, or on any other physical attribute for that matter.

I think the most important thing in a marriage is that the two people are compatible, comfortable and supportive of each other.

If you're asking if most women are attracted to men who are taller than them, I don't see that being very far off the mark in a lot of situations. But I don't agree that it's an absolute marriage staple.

Hi, I'm a tall woman. I've always been tall...and it annoys me to no end that guys have an inferiority complex about me and my height. I had a boyfriend that was obsessed, and it harmed the relationship.

With my current relationship, on a good day...my boyfriend is as tall as me. With heels...it's a done deal of me being taller. But, he encourages me to feel comfortable and it's never been an issue. We joke now about it, but he loves me in heels.

Height is important...for someone that is superficial. I wouldn't date someone who had a problem with me being taller (heh- we probably wouldn't be dating in the first place!).

Well i know i'm more attracted to men that are taller then me. It has nothing to do with looks though. I want my man to be my protector and to me him being taller shows that he can protect me. Not that a shorter guy couldnt do the same but for some reason it would be the same for me. Sounds horrible I know...plus i'm only 5'3 if a guy was shorter then me i'd feel like i was dating a child.

thats true! most guys have this inferiority complex if theyre shorter than the girl. bah why does the word have to be like this!

theres a lot of couples with the gals taller than guys in where i live.

wow thats a good thing umm.. where do u live anyway?! O.O

there was a couple at my old work where the girl was taller than the guy...

i personally have never dated a shorter guy, i've never met a guy interested in me that was shorter than me...i'm more attracted to a man taller than me i will admit but...i'm only 5ft 4 so..you dont have to be that tall haha
