I Discriminate Against the Vertically Challenged

Question: Are short men at a disadvantage for romance?
Answer: Yes.

Met a friend of a friend. Obviously didn’t remember him that well when we met the first time. Went for drinks and he was waiting at the bar. We laughed, talked, nearly had a “connection,” then.... he stood up.

My 2-inch heels (low for my heeled-shoe standards) upped my height to 5’8” and I felt like the Fifty Foot Woman. Mr. Vertically Challenged (VC) was lucky if the doctor listed him as 5’2” on his chart. While I was contemplating a long summer of baseball games and dinners out, I had no idea I would have to bring along a booster seat.

So today I did the deed and called VC. It’s never a good thing when you have to define so quickly that the interested party has made it into the “friend” category; however, I refuse to feel like a monster. Sorry short dudes, it’s all relative.

  1. I think it depends on the personality and charm not height! but it differs for different people, so you are right in your own way!
