For some reason, guys shorter than me and I just can't get it together.. I am not against anyone for their height.
Sounded like it too me. First he was fine, then after the "not into a commitment" thing you were bashing his "manhood" and then his stature.
Criteria is ok to a point. I personally am not attracted to seriously overweight women and get the "your shallow" drama because of it. I don't think I am shallow, my DNA is just not coded to make me attracted to them. I think that is different than height because weight can be in MOST cases controlled height cannot.
You said that you have "waived" your height requirement 2 times and it didn't work out. Statistically speaking unless you have only dated 1 guy taller than you I bet that taller guys have disappointed you at a higher rate than the 2 short guys.
I am not saying that you being attracted to tall guys and not to short ones it bad, we all have our likes dislikes. It just sounds like you made a blanket statement about short guys, and guys over 32 or so in a previous thread. I have to shake my head at those types of criteria. I had a woman tell me once after she found out I was in the Navy that she wouldn't date a sailor they all cheat. I just looked at her and said thats OK, not many sailors will date Mainer women either. When she got huffy about that I asked her how the 2 statements were different, she just stared off into space.
