this has come up in some conversations i've had recently, so i was wondering what you girls think about it. i prefer guys that are a lot taller than me usually, but i don't think a guy that was the same height (or a litte bit shorter than i am) would bother me. i'm 5'6". i've found guys around that height attractive before. i have a good male friend that is the same height as i am and a little self-conscious about it, and i really don't think he should be. thoughts?
dating someone shorter (or the same height) as you?

I think it depends on what height you are. I am 5'1, and gosh.... I'd have a hard time dating anyone my height or shorter, because I love heels... and usually the guy feels weirded out when I'm much taller than him due to the shoes.
My current beau is 6"4.... so yes... I suppose I'm at the other extreme where I like taller guys

I definately can't date a guy that is shorter or of equal height as me,they have to be taller. I'm only 5'2" so they better be taller.
I like Men to be taller than me, I think these days a man who stands fully grown at 5ft 9 is considered short.:weird:
If you've been to amusement parks and they say:
"You must be XXXX to ride this ride"
I'm a 6'0" limit.
The taller the better.
I'm 5'8" and my DH is 6'2"
"You must be XXXX to ride this ride"
I'm a 6'0" limit.
The taller the better.

i'm 5'9 and i can deal with 5'7, but not 5'6. i prefer same height or taller.. at a max cap of 6'4-5 ish.. otherwise, it's too much either way.
I've never encountered this problem, all the guys that I've dated happened to be much taller than I am (I'm 5'3"). In fact, the tallest guy that I've dated was 6'5". My bf now is 6 feet, and I feel very comfortable with that height difference! 
Man, I am only 5'3 my ex was like 5'8 I think 5'8-5'11 is pretty good for me because I like that if I wear high heels I will be about his height. Not too much under and I am small...I don't want to look like a tiny kid around my guy.
I'm 5'4" and I'm ok with guys that are "average" height--i.e. 5'9" or 5'10". I'm not so into guys 5'8" and under generally. My measuring stick is more a guy's pant size. If he wears pants smaller than me, that weird me out. I don't want to be the "big chick" dating Jack Sprat from that nursery rhyme!
I'm barely 5'1 so I've never dated anyone shorter than me. I used to date someone who's 6'2 and the height difference didn't bother me.
