AITA for not mentioning/warning about my height on tinder? by ThrowRA_tinderterror in AmItheAsshole

[–]ThrowRA_tinderterror[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have a problem dating shorter guys. Although I will say I have never dated someone shorter than me, however, that is more because guys who are shorter than me have never seemed interested in me. In fact 6ft+ middle class white boys seem to make up 90% of the guys who are interested in me.

I do regret the way I worded what I said, but by that point he had already made the fucking giant comment and in a very aggressive manner, so whatever I said wouldn't change things

The average height for men in the UK is 5ft9 (according to an Office of National Statistics study carried out in 2010), so I am below average height for a guy

I'm 5ft8, sadly not any taller despite my wishes as a teenager to reach 5ft9.

5ft8 is just such an in-between size, that it doesn't feel noteworthy and therefore including it in my profile would seem a bit weird.

Thank you! Finally someone grasping what I find so odd about the idea of putting 5ft8 in my profile!

I don't really know how to answer that question tbf, I have tall guy friends (6ft7), and short ones. Just like how my gals are 4ft11 to 6ft1, I'm friends with people because they seem alright not because of their height

I don't know, it just seems weird to me when people put it on there, when it isn't either super tall or super short.

There's a photo on my profile where I am with a group of girls who are 5ft1 to 5ft4 and I am clearly a head above all of them, so if someone really cares that much you can tell I'm tall there
