Am I tripping? This guy I'm dating is dang near everything I would want in a man but is my height. I'm still very much attracted to him and I realize this is an insecurity of my own. I could use some advice on just how to be more confident in this.

You said it yourself. It's an insecurity of YOURS. Give it time and if he is the right one, after a while, you won't feel that way anymore because that isn't as important as you are making it sound.

I’m not sure it matters not because any desires that you have but God made the man first and he gets to choose a wife.

If you are just a friend then, it still doesn’t matter.

Proverbs 18
He who finds a wife finds a good thing,
And obtains favor from the Lord.

So just chill and enjoy this ideal man.

Just know that we all are imperfect so set your heart on pleasing God.

Then you’ll have peace.

If he’s confident, then don’t worry about it. I used to be VERY into height because I’m 5’11, and I almost always dated athletes. My last tall guy was an ex Laker who was 7’1….. TRASH 🗑️. I tried dating shorter men who were NOT confident and that was a huge turnoff. Then I dated a shorter man who LOVED tall women and I got over it completely. I realized that his confidence was what made ALL the difference. Trust me hunni, height isn’t everything. You just gotta get over this. Make a list of everything you want in a man. If height is the only box left unchecked, I’d say you have your answer.

Focus less on being confident on how you both present physically, be confident in his character and how you vibe and align as a budding couple. Being the same height isn't an issue. In this climate of dating, finding a gem is valuable!

I'm 5'11, I'd love to meet men I'm into at least my height, I'm taller than most men I'm around in flats let alone heels lol. I dated a 5'8 guy. A couple people made jokes about it but he ticked so many boxes, made it easier not to care. Keep enjoying the dates and focus on being present

I'm confused. He's not shorter than you, but he's your same height. How is that a problem? I'm not making light of your concern, but that is not a problem. I don't even know why it would make you feel insecure. Who are you concerned about? Other people? Anyone who would comment on a height difference would likely be jealous that you found love. And trust me that those very haters would be in his in-box behind your back. All jokes aside, your relationship is about you and how you feel with him, how he treats you. Note you and him...not anyone else. The sooner you get that, the stronger you and your relationship will be. Good luck!
