I firmly believe men are getting shorter!
I was discussing the issue of the shortage of men (pun intended) in Sydney over a glass of sparkling at Foresters with one of my few single girlfriends. I could swear the men are not as tall as what I remember.
I'm 5'7" not too tall by anyone's standards, granted I do usually throw on the 4" heels ;-) all the men I'm meeting are vertically challenged. I was told over the weekend that I was becoming "too picky" I hastily remind this lovely girl of my previous long term boyfriends and she immediately looses any argument.
I was out at Marble Bar on Saturday night and I swear 90% of the men in the venue came up to my chin! Am I supposed to lower my expectations? I am the first to agree my list of "what I don't like in a man" out weighs "my ideal guy list" but I think it is a great start, I know what I don't want/like...
I've even gone speed dating! 12 men in 1 night to no avail, mostly short and socially inept.
My list as a starting point based on the men I've met of late;
- I couldn't date a vegetarian
- The why bother coffee, decaf late, skim milk & equal *shudder*
- No man shorter than me
- Men wearing diamond encrusted sunglasses disturb me
- I need a man I can look up to
- A man that has a broad range of interests including most of mine ;-) oh and me...
- A man that has a lot of his own friends
- Doesn't live with his parents over the age of 25
- I need passion, lots of passion

My worse accusation was against a guy who drove a pink/silver hyundai excel, automatic - I just couldn't be seen in it!
