No need to worry.
You can forget about him and move on.
Slowly and steadily you will turn to furniture in the house.

Please I need advice from matured people.

There's this guy that am dating, he's so caring, lovely and humble. He is planning to marry me but he is short, though I have not gathered the courage to tell him my fears. Am average 5ft, but am taller than him. So am afraid that our kids will be short.

Please my fellow NL, I need your advice, I don't want to make mistakes in marriage. Though I have been praying to God for the right man.

My dear everyone has fears when marriage talk becomes more serious, at least you are not ashamed to express yours.No matter how shallow they may seem to others these are YOUR fears .

1) if he is shorter than 5ft yes the truth is he is indeed short but how do you really feel about this man as in really really feel about him?
2) Please keep your insecurities to yourself, he doesn't need you to highlight the fact that he is short, believe me he knows and he is probably thanking God that he found someone who wants to marry him despite his height, so please dont tell him your fears.
3) if his height bothers you so much leave him alone, his height is not his fault, he wont grow taller in the nearest future.
4) Please leave him alone if you are not proud of him or will be ashamed to pronounce him as your husband to who has ears
5) Please leave him if his height is more important than his caring, lovely and humble personality
6) The issue of short children is really not an issue as short parents doesn't necessarily mean short children.
7) my ex was 6ft 4 and now i'm married to a sweet loving man who is just 5ft 4(same as me) i had the same fears as you, funny enough his parents are average height ,but my dear if i had let my fears rule me i would have missed big time , i cannot begin to tell you how happy i am.
cool Ultimately its you who has to decide what is really important to you, nothing wrong with short kids,i need you to look beyond what people will say , how you look in public, look at how this man makes you feel , do you feel safe with him, do you laugh with him, does he make you happy, is he interested in you as a person, your opinions, does he defend you ? does he celebrate you, is he willing to grow with you to create a wholesome life? if this man makes you happy wetin again ,sweetie there are too many unhappy people everywhere , dont join them oh.

Dear i want you to be happy so please take time , make the right decision, i wont even ask you to pray because this is all YOU

Stop listenning to ur friends becox I know they started telling u things. Just go ahead and marry him is all about love and caring not height. Are u God to say what become of ur kids tommorrow. What if u marry a man who is taller than u and u both hv no kids. If u believe he loves u go for it. Let people talk what they like.

I don't listen to friends because if I do, I won't even date him in the first place. Anyways thanks for your advice.

You are terrible in giving advise and quite rude.

She asked for advise or are u stating u don't have qualities u want in a partner or even fears?
Please. Unless you have good things to state, simply just keep your cynical sadistic opinions to your depressed ignorant self

First off, her fiance does not need your pity. I would assume that there are people around you deserving of your pity.

Secondly, my brother(s) have a mind of their own. They are men enough to choose their own wives and live with the consequences of their choice. In my family, we don't do the allow/disallow choice of partner by any member.

Lastly, you were quick to attack her but conveniently turned a blind eye to those hurling insults at her! Did she start insulting anyone? Or gave them back a taste of their own medicine?

I never knew you were this biased!

Thank you so very much my dear, God bless you.

Don't Date who you can't marry. That should be every lady's first rule .

See JAMB question o. Why do we have weird questions on nairaland today and weird posts about joysticks etc. E be like say konji don dey catch mod.

As for you OP, what were you looking at when you met him, is height the main thing now? You'll rather be with a tall and dark guy who ll not only turn you to punching bag but also give you a baby albino cos you didn't know he had albinism or other defects in his genes. Or ll you rather be with a tall guy that gives tall kids but has a node for unintelligence or cancer in him.. You need to get your priorities right madam, what's in a height? You can be with a tall man but with a short future/destiny or tell me, is Remi Tinubu not taller than Bola Tinubu. Like him or not, he's a great man, if Remi was playing the height card like you are doing now, only God knows where she'ld be today, she would have missed it. Bishop Oyedepo and his wife are very short but have you seen their children? I can give you more examples. So, you berra stop feeling like diamond and focus on more important things, maybe its cos you are not 35 or 40 yet. Finally, you are not the best woman on earth, neither are you perfect, you've not bothered to find out if your man finds you perfect for himself or you think he doesn't have reservations about you too? Look madam, its not all about you, relationship is a two way thing. Their are very beautiful women of good character out there who ll jump on what you are there still thinking or pondering about. You have good man yet you are not satisfied or grateful neither do you appreciate the value of more important things. Na wa for you o.. Bless your heart!

u are jst shouting future kids since, dont u wanna marry him when u agree to date him then, or u jst wanna f**k him nd collect his dough then run away..height doesnt matter at all and u'll complement him with ur height. 5ft tall is nt bad at all...

I don't think you should be dating someone you don't intend possibly getting married to, whether it works out or not.

That said, you shouldn't be worried about your kids' height. If genetics smile on you, they'd be just about the right height

My friend's parents are short, as in very SHORT...both of them. But my friend is lucky she's average in height and both her brothers are very tall. So you see, it doesn't always turn out bad

honey please take the myth out of the way,beans do not and can never make people tall. Genetics plays a great part,fruits and vegetable can at least give the kids enough vitamins their body needs.

no mind the delusional being , she is in lust with the money thinking she is in love how can she love a guy and be afraid of offsprings that may come from their union. she is young anyways..... she ain't seen nothing yet
You are very stupid for making this comment, you jump into conclusion without know the person, who told you she came to me because of money, you don't even know if am rich or not. Don't even say what you don't know. Rubbish mentality. Some guys think every girl is after a guy because of money. If you think like this, the person you will marry tomorrow won't love you but will love your money. Must you call her a delusional being.

Re: Marrying A Guy That Is Short.. by donem: 6:28pm On Mar 25, 2015
@ Mooncares your case is a very sensitive one, which you must solve with great wisdom, as of your future kids height judging 4rm u and ur potential spouse heights, there is 75% chances of them being short.

am speaking from observation, during child growth the parents immediate gens are 70% responsible for growth, while external family tree cycle makeup the remaining 30%.

potential couples are always advised to try balance their choices height wise, so one compensates the others deficiency.

N/B. short + shorter = shortest. Short + tall = Medium.
Re: Marrying A Guy That Is Short.. by rhames(m): 6:30pm On Mar 25, 2015
if love rules your relationship, you wouldn't care if he is short or you give birth to short kids. Do not lose a good man as a result of inferiority complex. This is one reason why most ladies remain un married. A bird in hand is worth nine in the jungle.
