I always find the height thing a little strange. 

I mean I don't know if this is cos' I'm a gay or because I'm 6'3", but pretty much every guy I've ever dated has been shorter than me and I haven't really cared. In fact my current relationship, and my longest one before this were both with guys who were about 5'8" - so its not even that I settle for people a little shorter than me cos I'm a lanky fuck.
