to worry about my date being too short?

I've been speaking to a guy who contacted me through a dating site. We've seen photos of each other and had quite a few long conversations and I really like him, he seems to really like me. Obviously, the real test is when we meet.

BUT I can't stop thinking about the fact that he is only 1" taller than me! Which means I don't want to tower over him in heels (which is 90% of my footwear) and it's making me really nervous about meeting him! It's not that I have anything against short guys as such, more that I presume he would prefer me to be shorter (and petite?) so that he doesn't feel less 'manly', and vice versa, I think I might feel less feminine.

Am I unreasonable for making a big deal about this? I'm just turning it into a big issue in my head and is the only reason I am feeling a bit hesitant about meeting him, even though I am actually really looking forward to it!

so glad is going well,that he is lovely/caring etc

hopefully height wont mean a thing to you or him

so either wear your heels with pride or always wear flat/low heels(much better for your feet/posture anyway)
