To all the shorties.....

How much of a bitch did this conversation make me??? And how do you politely say," I'm sorry, you're just too short little man - that's why my looking for section specified 6ft+ and your 5'8" just won't cut it if I'm wearing a three inch heel and have to lean DOWN to kiss you....."

Him:
Hi! My name is Matteo. I live near Phoenix, but I am temporarily staying in Charlotte, NC, for work. I will be back to AZ in about a month.

I have decided to write to you because your profile (and your smile) totally caught my attention. It looks like we have a lot in common, from our political and religious view to our love for the outdoors. Do you enjoy hiking and yoga too? It could really be a good match!

I would like to have the opportunity to know you better!

I look forward to hearing from you!

Matteo


Me:



Matteo,

Thanks so much for the email. I'm going to sound so superficial and mean, but while we do have a lot of in common, I have found that if I can't wear a 3 inch heel with a guy I don't feel as feminine around them, which is something important to me. And kissing someone when I'm taller (even with the help of heels) feels funny. I feel like a huge jerk for admitting it, but I don't want not respond because you seem like a great person! Good luck with your search for love!

    Evidently I wasn't too mean, because this is the response I received:

    Katie, thank you for your nice note. I really really appreciate your honesty and straightforwardness.
    Good luck with your search!
    Matteo

    P.S.
    It is a very interesting experience to be told that I am not tall enough by someone who is shorter than me, but I don't think it is superficial or mean. It is good that you know exactly what matters to you the most.

    So ladies...brutal honestly in my response emails from here out! Although I wish I could say height doesn't matter the most, because it really is in my top 5 things I consider. :/
