You will have tall children. My Dad is 5.6 and mum about 5.4 but I am 6.04.

So I'll just go straight to the point.
I met this guy in my Church and days later, he started showing interest in me. In less than a month of meeting me, he started making marriage proposals, telling me he would want to meet with my people for introduction. I told him it was too early and besides, I would want to complete my studies before settling down. But he suggested we went for the introduction first and then waited till after my graduation for the marriage. Again, I told him it was too early for him to start making marriage proposals, as he had not known me for long, and that I wouldn't want to rush into marriage, cos I would Want to know who I would be getting married to. His reply was that he doesn't like dating before marriage, so I told him to look elsewhere, that I can't marry someone I haven't taken my time to study. On the long run, he said he would want us to court and that he would wait for me to finish my schooling, because he doesn't want to lose me.




Now, this guy is very caring, supportive and hardworking. Though he didn't go to a university, and the doesn't know how to speak well, I'm not bothered about that, cause I like him for who he is and not what he has achieved. But the problem is, I'm not tall, I'm just 5.4ft and I'm a bit taller than this guy. When I think of the kind of children we would have in future if I marry him, it gives me a lot of concern. I don't want my children to be called names such as dwarf, short devil, akakpor, etc. I'm confused here. Apart from his height, the guy is ok. Pls will our heights affect our children? Your kind advice are needed. Thanks in anticipation.

Your excuses are superficial. I know its good to have criteria and taste,but sister-girl,being married happily ever after to someone who is not too physically appealing is far better than marrying someone who meets all your criteria,but will make you miserable all through the marriage. Besides,who told you that height(amongst other things) is determined based of the parents' heights alone? Other factors come into play: Are your heights dominant or recessive gene? Your height might be a recessive gene,which means that it may affect 1 out of 4 of your kids. Worry not your heart!

What if you go lookin for that "tall Jordan" and he ends up not giving you the marriage of your dreams. Ur guy pans out well from the description you gave, just the hight issue, which to me, is not that all bad. I know of a couple who are similar to you guys in height, but ended up having very tall children, it just genetics. Stick to ur guy, d devil u know is...

Exactly! Genetics defies all these things most times. I have seen dark parents give birth to fair kids....

Slap yourself OP.

You are worried about his not too fluent English but you keep telling yourself, it doesn't really matter. Slap yourself again.

You are worried about his height but you want people that have never seen this guy before to give you a false reassurance that it's OK to go ahead. Slap yourself!

My dear, wake up from your slumber and ask yourself what you really want in a relationship. If this dude doesn't fit, then tell him nicely and walk away abeg.

If the only thing you are attracted to bout him is money then your priorities are misplaced and you might end up regretting later. Let the dude go.

If you really love him, then height shouldn't be a deciding factor.

Slap yourself!


Sorry,I mean clap!

it's 2017 darling, and you're still worried about the wrong things . wawu

Personally I don't care about height, but I don't think it's right for me to dismiss your concerns.
but don't be too worried cos genetics play a part in the height of your kids, but it's not limited to you and your hubby's. You probably have tall parents or grandparents, so your kids can be tall too.

Nutrition plays a vital role as well.

Finally, as much as I'm trying not to judge you, I don't think you're ready for marriage if things like height is what bothers you. you just said how much of an amazing man he is.
I would expect that you'd be more worried if he isn't smart or intelligent or if there's some kind of mental retardation in his family, cos this things are what you wouldn't want to pass unto your kids.
