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.

how is she rude? And is anyone to tell anyone who their brothers should marry? Rubbish.

Don't worry...she is only following your footstep as yu r d champion of mouthedness here on NL


Evina:

LOL. Pickabeau, issoright.


Whether you like it or not or it sounds politically incorrect to you, the choice of a spouse to marry has implications beyond the people concerned

You can decide to brush it up with independence or whatever you call it.

Marriage involves more than 2 persons

This post is a textbook example of ""girls don't know what they want""....you have a good man n u wondering about his height! You find a tall man and you will say he may be a cheat!! At d end of the day, God will deliver that baby to you, whether short or tall.

I am responding late,@op your fears are real. Most of the people commenting are not married. I am and I know it will matter later in life. Do not give your kids a disadvantage position,your love for each other will fade with time and reality will set in,you will attend church,birthday,vacation etc together in 10 to 15 years time then you will know what you have done, i speak frankly because I know,you may now know how you became short? It was the decision two lovely lovers made years ago,do not make the same mistake rather pray with faith for a better and taller man. May God grant you the grace to carry on.

Thanks Dear, God bless you

You don't need to worry except the gene of shortness run in your family as well. My dad is 5 ft 5 and I am 6 ft 0 (the shortest in my family grin), the rest are 6 ft 2, 6 feet 5.

Don't be scared, height shouldn't be an issue. Make sure your kids take enough milk.
Ok Dear, milk go hear ram naaaa! Lols
Re: Marrying A Guy That Is Short.. by benni(m): 5:27pm On Mar 25, 2015
It does not simply work like that your kids would be short.Look around his relations to ascertain if the gene is dorminant in their race.

You are 5feet and he is less than that...is your fiancé Iyanya

Anyways, I do not see height as any issue for you, just make sure you give your children plenty protein in the formative years, I'm sure you would be able to have one or two Kobe Bryants.

Pray too. God hears prayer smiley

Re: Marrying A Guy That Is Short.. by tintingz(m): 5:30pm On Mar 25, 2015
@mooncares. If there are tall people in your family and his family, you can marry him and your children might not be short because it runs in the genes.

The real problem is not what she thinks about his height or how it would affect the height of their children. The major worry is HOW PEOPLE WILL SEE HER WALKING SIDE BY SIDE WITH HER SHORT HUSBAND . The way people will STARE at her and whispers '' look how short he is''. or ''chai ! love is indeed blind''


Tell me i'm wrong OP.

You better do what your heart tells you and stop thinking about what people will say.
You are so wrong, and don't say want you don't know. You must not comment.

ok, you needed to how rude and insulting these ladies were, moost of the posts have been hidden though.

I don't even know how the op's post should warrant insults. And those people hurling the insults have such dented lives. lipsrsealed
That should be the only reason to display such animalistic tendencies.

If you check, they are not really members of family section. Only the guys on this section are rude. cheesy yet they demand respect from women. I'm sure they dont get any from the women in their lives. lipsrsealed

Re: Marrying A Guy That Is Short.. by nagoma(m): 5:37pm On Mar 25, 2015
I have not read all the responses , so pardon me if I repeat someone's views. The first question you asked is whether your height and your husbands height will affect the height of your children. The answer to this is yes, genetics is a strong determinant of the height of the offspring . But genetics also extend to grand parents and possibly even further up in the family tree. It would be interesting to know if your parents and your suitors parents are short or tall.
The second point is that height of the child is not entirely determined by genetics. Health and nutrition, standard of living and quality of life affect children's hight very much.
Another independent factor is of course mothers health during pregnancy affects the baby's growth in the womb and small babies tend to be small adults ( taking into account that catch-up growth occurs in infancy ).
It really depends on how desperate you are for tall children. But with the given heights some of your children will almost without a doubt be short. But remember there have been more famous short people in the world than famous tall persons.
Napoleon Bonaparte, Lord Lugard, Sani Abacha, Nasiru El-Rufai and of Prof Osinbajo ( my VP) are some of the most remarkable great human beings who were not tall.
Don't forget that Jesus had Zacchaeus of Jericho who was short and Muhammad (SAW) had Abdullahi bin Mas'ood. Both short but great men in history of religion.
