DH is 6' 2", I am 5' 3". He can never find me in a crowd because he never really looks lower than eye-level. Drives me crazy.

I am only 5'3" and my DH is 6'3". But my ex was only 5'7". So my kids are short. DD and are the same height and my DS is 5'6" but I would venture a guess he will grow another inch or two. His girlfriend is the same height as he is.

Aww, I'll bet you don't. I know some short/tall couples and they look just as cute together as similarly heighted people. I love to see variations in couples! I don't know if dewryce ever had this experience, but early in our relationship, when DH and I were out together, I got nasty comments a couple of times from taller women who felt I should have left a tall guy like DH to taller women, because they felt there were plenty of shorter guys I could have dated/married. DH's sister, who was out with us one of the times this happened, and who stands almost 6 feet tall, admitted that she often felt this way when she saw shorter women and taller men together. Seriously? Wow, no that never happened that I noticed, I can't even imagine! Oddly enough, I choose him based on who he was and how I felt when I was with him, and he did the same. The nerve of some people!

My DH is 6', but I am only 4'11".
We have 3 daughters and thank goodness all are taller than me, although my youngest is only a couple inches taller than me.

We are both about 5'10.
If I were being honest, I wish DH was a bit taller than me. He probably wishes I had better boobs so I figure we are even, LOL.
All the other men I have dated were usually over 6 feet. I dated one guy who was shorter than me, but he had issues with it.

I'm 5' 2.5", DH is 6'. I'm the shortest in my entire family, all of DH's family are tall. DD will probably be taller than I am. She's in K right now and is already the height I was in the 3rd grade. But that's not saying much, LOL!

I'm 5'5 and my husband is 5'11. Both average.
Our kids are a mixed bag. We have a 6'4 (and still growing!) 15 year old son and a 5'0 (and hopefully still growing?) 12 year old daughter.

I'm 5'4" and DH is 5'2". Works for us.
Our daughters are 5"1', 5'0, and 4'10, so maybe it didn't work so well for them LOL.
When my oldest was an infant, she was always in the 90th percentile until her 3 YO well checkup. She hadn't had one since she was 18 months (standard schedule per insurance at that time). While we were waiting to see the doctor, the nurse was filling out paper work when all of a sudden she was flipping back and forth through DD's chart and looking very concerned.
Since all she had done so far was take her height and weight measurents, I asked if she was concerned about her height. She said yes, because she had dropped to the 15th percentile in height! I told her our heights, she said, "That explains it. I'll make a note."

Dh is 6'4", and I'm 5'7". He grew two inches since I met him at 17. He was a late bloomer.
I like our height. When dh puts his arms around me, I fit right under his chin.

I am 5'2" (and a half!!), DH is 6'3" and a former college rower. I reached my height when I was 10, though, and for a long time I thought of myself as a 'tall' girl. It took a long, long while before I realised everyone else was growing past me and it did strange things to my self-image. Weird. Possibly because of this, I don't think of myself as a 'short' person now so I don't notice the difference between DH and myself. It's only when I see photos I go 'oh' because I fit under his arm

DH is 5'9"-ish. It may say 5'10" on his DL. I'm short so it doesn't matter.
DS is about 5'5" - his endocrinologist was hoping for 5'7". He may eventually get there - I think DH grew in college.

I'm 5'8" and DH is 6'4". My brothers are taller than he is.
DS may not be as tall as DH, but he's about 5'11" - I figure he'll gain another inch or two, but really, 5'11" is tall enough. The other kids are younger, so it's hard to tell what will happen with them.

I'm 5'8" and my husband is 6'1" and our son is 6'4". My daughter is 5'2" and she wishes she was taller. I think at 26 she is finished growing.

I am 5' 7.5" and dh is 6'. Dds projected height is 5' 10". Ds has some genetic stuff and we hope he makes it to 5'. Right now he has been holding out at 4' 4" for over a year.

DH is 6'8" while I am 5'7".we have 3 kids and they are all off the charts in height. DS who is 10 and in 4th grade, is already 5'3" and in size 10 mens shoes. Not long ago I bought him new jeans, then 6 weeks later had to buy him a new pair, as they others were already too short! It's going to be an expensive few years.

DH is 6' 3" and I'm 5' 8". I like tall men. I've never been attracted to short guys for some reason.
