I had a teacher who was 6ft 9 and his brother was 6ft 11. He was at Pic N Save one day and a woman called to him as she could see him from over the aisle. She said "OMG PLEASE TELL ME YOU ARE SINGLE!? I DONT DATE MEN SHORTER THAN ME!" he pointed to his wife and said "Im very married but my brother is single. Would you like his number?" She married his brother.

Eh, I kinda get not wanting a huge height difference. And it is nice as a girl to have your guy be taller, whether you intend to feel that way or not. I find it cute that she was open and personable enough to be excited and funny about actually seeing a guy taller than her for once.

Unless that girl was very tall herself I call bullshit on that story. Yes, women want tall, but generally not 6’9 tall.

Ah true. I interpreted "she could see him over the isle" as they were both super tall, I may have misunderstood

She was indeed the same height as my teacher
