Frank,

Isn't the average height of a man at 5'8?"  At 4'10.5." I was married to a
man 5'11" and it presented some problems when we went dancing.  No
opportunity to do all that cheek-to-cheek stuff (while standing).  Two of
my sons are in the 5'8' ish range and they have had no problems with women
in general.  One married a woman 5'7" which is taller than average for most
women.  My other son is 6'2" and he married someone who's my height.  Don't
beat yourself up about this.  Just remember, if there weren't short people,
there wouldn't be any tall people.  Have a great day.

Judy
