A WOMAN who is 6 ft 4 has told how her height made dating a nightmare until she found a fella who liked her figure.
Roslyn Grady, 28, struggled to find her Mr Right for a long time because it wasn’t easy to find a partner who was taller than her.
Now in a happy relationship with partner Gary, who is 6 ft 3, she’s learned to embrace her stature and realises she used to overthink her situation.
Roslyn, from Edinburgh, says: “I was never short of attention, it never really stopped me in any relationships.
“I just always wanted the person to be taller. It made a massive difference in dating.
“Height was one of the first questions I had to ask. On my online dating bio I had ‘I’m 6 ft 4 and I’m not lying.’
“Gary said it drew him in, he was I intrigued to see how tall I was.”
She adds: “I’ve been with people who were 6 ft, I’d never date anyone under 6 ft, it would just look weird.
“People would be looking and the guy might feel degraded.
“Most of Gary’s ex-girlfriends were 5 ft 5 or under, he loves me because I’m taller.”

Roslyn jokes: “It used to annoy me when I was single that girls were 5 ft 5 and had the 6 ft 5 boyfriends.”
She previously told how strangers always stare at her when she’s out in public.
She said: “I’ve seen people on the street and we look at each other because it’s so uncommon.
“I hated it when I was younger. Sometimes I have anxiety even now about people looking at me because it’s different.
“You don’t really see tall women and I know people don’t mean anything bad – but it makes you wonder what they’re thinking about you.
“If I could, I’d be happy at 6 ft. But I can’t change it.
“People make wee sly comments and it makes it hard you feel quite self conscious.
“Now it’s part of my personality. I’ve always been the tall one.”
