Well... if we've made a few people self conscious and uncomfortable... I kinda feel like we've done our job for the day.

I don't know how he would say this to you because the Philistine language is so rarely inscribed but I can hear Goliath telling you, "Cheer up think of yourself in my shoes, 6'2" doesn't even reach my knee caps." Be ye encouraged brother! it's better to look up to a woman than for her to look downtrodden upon your face. I'm trying here!! Smile! Oh wait she would be doing that never mind smile.

I think it's important for the wee elves to express themselves.

Besides... if all we had were giants elves... that would just be weird.

When it come to dating looks height are not a major factor in deciding if the person is suited to your self. The major fact are
1 Dos he or she have the same beliefs in God
2 There personality
3 Can I live with that person the rest of my life
4 Sex drive is it simular to my one
5 Do they want the same amount of kid as me
6 In time of stress how do's this person handle it
7 If I make a mistake in life will this person stick with me or just walk away at anything I do wrong.
8 Is this person a control freak dominates you puts you down if you do not want to do what they want
9 Can you work with this person in any situation
There might be more items you my think of but these are the most important ones I can think off

It don't matter if you're the shortest one on the block or the tallest one in town. For in Christ Jesus there is neither Jew nor Greek, bond nor free, short nor tall.

If she's a foot taller than you just be patient, sooner or later she will stick her foot in your mouth[decided not to veer south in that example] and all will be balanced.

I'm 5'4" and have dated men who ranged from like 5'6" to 6'4".

Some people put great emphasis on height (and our culture teaches us to do this). However, height is a determiner of genetics and nothing else.

I think if you're into this woman, you should value what she brings to the table more than you worry about your ego. I think it's very likely that any little twinges you might have about it would amount to nothing as you got to know and appreciate her as a person. (And, the same on her side as well).

OK, Jesus checked me at the door with this one, this crosses my Spirit into coarse joking I want to throw this out! Funny isn't good enough it still needs to be righteous! Thx.

If she's a Christian, loves the Lord with all her heart, soul, mind, and loves you, who cares? Some men might actually be jealous! But who cares?

The standards of the world are based on who has the most toys, the better looks, the most money, the most prestigious job, the winningest team, the better talents, the bigger home, the most expensive car.

All that stuff is going to vanish. And it will vanish before the end of time. Yes it will. Think about it. Breakthroughs of the past are merely common today: electricity, cameras, radio, TV, calculators, man on moon (no one even goes there now), and so on. What hasn't changed is man's journey to find happiness.

It's all in Jesus Christ. That will never grow old, never be common.

Enjoy your life. Rejoice in the Lord.

What if she's too short to reach the table?

Andy! Andy! Andy!

By the very nature of male and female, polar opposites, your list, as commendable as it is, is by default way too short. And though you and I could consort and add a hundred more, it would never be enough.

You'll just have to resolve that eventually these three virtues must be the power of a relationship: faith, hope, love.
If the man and the woman both have those three in the Lord and abundantly so, and toward the each other: It's a marriage made in heaven.

But your list is good. It is.
