yeah I think you are right about such things.  I get the feeling she is not very experienced when it comes to pizza.

I think her family would be worried about the fact I am not Jewish.


Sweetheart, I hate to be the negative chick here, but I'm trying to save you some heartache.

1. How much experience she has with pizza has zero to do with whether or not she wants to have pizza with you.  Horny-ness wins over experience every time.  If she wants you bad enough that will override any concerns she has. 

2. I doubt this has anything to do with the Jewish thing.  If it was, you would have been out of the running from the get go because you aren't Jewish.  End of story.

Honestly, I'm guessing this girl thought you were a nice guy, and figured she'd give you a shot.  Assuming you paid for everything (and probably still do, being a gentleman), it was a good deal for her to hang out with a nice guy and have a good time.  Now that you're obviously more into her, she is backpedaling and using the height thing as an excuse because she doesn't like you "like that" and doesn't want to hurt your feelings.  Seriously, beware because I think she's playing you.  I only say that because I have played this game before (not proud of it, but I've done it).

This is a funny thread.  I'm still unsure if it's just the height that bothers her or she's assuming because of your height your stuff won't fit or because of your height things won't line up.  In all scenarios I would think it shouldn't matter.  I dated a very very tall fellow when I was in my early twenties.  All was well :-)  :-)  :-)  Heck, even if the parts didn't line up wouldn't it be fun to make them line up :-) ?????

I guess the religious differences could be a problem.

I would probably walk away from this girl.

OK . if she really did spend an hour discussing "you're just too tall", she has issue.  It's not like you suddenly grew taller over the past week.  She DECIDED to go out with you well-knowing how you look like.  Now she has problem with that??
Run.   


+1...  Agreed..


ps.. Male taller than female:  Not much of an issue
       Female taller than male:  Can be an issue..



really?  why is this?  because men are insecure about a woman being taller than they are?

It doesn’t necessarily have to be insecurity, it could just be a preference.

It could be either.  

I know some guys who would never date a girl taller than them, because they wouldn't be comfortable with it.  I (not tall at around 5'9"), personally, am more attracted to girls who are shorter.  I would have no problem dating someone taller than me, but in general, I am more drawn to shorter girls.

Back to the topic of this thread, as EVERYONE has said, there is more to it than what there seems to be on the surface.  I don't like where I see this ending up.

chirunner134 - 2010-07-26 11:21 PM She mentioned that we already have an issue because we do not have common religious background even though she does not care.  Maybe she is worried my family/her family would.  I really do not know.  but the height thing was the thing discussed in great length.  





Tell her religious background doesn't matter because at the end of the day, she will be on her back yelling, "oh God, oh God" no matter what.

If that doesn't work, walk away.  However, in parting, hand her a DVD of midget porn that you downloaded off the internet.  It's important that she realize just how wrong she is.

Nothing wrong.  If it's attraction and/or preference, it's ok.  People would naturally date who they are attracted to in the first place. 
But what's the point of dating with someone you're NOT attracted to, or not your preference, then compain about it? 
Date a taller woman then complain about her height, or worse yet, get upset when she wears shoes with heels etc, and at the same time complains that she doesn't dress up. 

Or in the OP's case, knowing how tall he is, still goes out with him, then starts having all these nonsense imaginations and tries to end it.  Doesn't make sense.  So I vote for her "waiting for or finding alternative candidate and making escuse to back out".

I might sound like a horrible man but I would NEVER date a woman taller than me.  Then again how many girls out there are 6'7"+?

according to www.tallwomen.org there are quite a few but still.  I need to date a girl shorter than me.

For what it's worth, I've seen non-religious Jews flip out over this issue a couple of times in the past when they start liking someone.  It never made sense to me and, in one case, they knew it was a bit irrational but the "expectations" and "possibility of someday being religious" really tied them in knots.

Then again, your situation sounds a little crazier because of all the other things being brought into play (or not Tongue out).  Best of luck!

As far as your other issue, you could just tell her you're afflicated by the Irish curse and it's not a problem.  Wink

I really *have* missed you, Todd. I said that already, didn't I?

newleaf, now tealeaf, isn't around as much, though ... either you'll need a new translator, or marma will have to hurry up ...


And the rest of you clowns ... I've dated two little people. Not at the same time, though.

And no ... size DOES NOT correlate with size.


Ditch the witch and pick up a good kind of crazy one, maybe at the tail end of an ultramarathon or something.
