For me, height can be a deal breaker. I never approach women that are taller than me. I understand that women prefer taller guys, and I'm not bothered by that. I'm pretty sure that every girl I've ever dated, or been with, was my height or an inch shorter - never more than 1 inch shorter. I frequently find myself shorter than my dates when I go out, since they often wear heels - that doesn't bother me. As long as they aren't really taller than me. Upon reading this thread, I just measured myself - barefoot, and I found that I was 5'6'' instead of my listed 5'7''. I psychologically convinced myself that I was taller than I really am. My height, or lack thereof, is probably one of the reasons that I turned out the way I am: aggressive at times and very easily prone to fighting when being confronted in public, at parties, bars, etc. It provoked my interest in learning how to fight at an pseudo-professional level, and is a big factor in my dominant nature. The good thing is that I'm frequently said to be "taller than I look" and have heard the "I'm not usually attracted to short guys, but I like you" mantra a bunch of times. I find that confidence, not height, is the key.
