Dear Queenie,
I met a man I really like. I think we are perfect for each other – interested in the same things, want to have the same kind of lives, we even have a lot of the same friends. But I am a tall woman, almost 6 feet, and this man is a few inches shorter than me.
Queenie, what will people say if we get together?—Hesitating
Dear Hesitating,
Has this man given any indication that he is interested in “getting together” with you? If so, I would say, “Go for it!”
If you would let what other people might say (or might be thinking) keep you from “getting together” with a man who seems perfect for you except for a slight (unusual) difference in height, I would say you are being rather foolish.
