First of all, I want you to please not ever say "a lot of people think we should go out" ever again. You're probably in the age range of 13-17, so I know what other people think seems important to you now but I'm telling you DON'T let other people get involved with you and a guy. Not your friends, your best friend, his best friend, no one. Especially if there's real potential there. I'm not saying keep it top secret, I just mean its no one's business, and believe me the second they know something's going on, they'll try to make it their business. They might even change their minds and say that you shouldn't go out with him. What then? Would you not? Maybe this is a little heavy for this situation, but I just think the sooner you understand this concept, the MUCH better.
With all that said, lets get to your actual question. What about his height makes you think it would be weird? Do you feel like if you go out, because you're taller, this means you should drive, pay for dinner and walk him to the door? You don't have to be the girl in "Sixteen Candles" that gets with Long Duc Dong. Going out with him will not be any different than going out with any taller guy. So don't sweat this. I think, from what you've said, that he likes you. Once you get to know him more and if he's wonderful, you won't worry about how tall he is.
I had the longest on-again, off-again relationship with a guy who is shorter than me. I thought about his height when he took me to prom and I wore high shoes; other than then, it never crossed my mind.
Think about Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, or every tall model who got with a short, old and/or ugly rock star...
If it still bugs you, hey, its not wrong that it turns you off. You can't help it. I don't like men with hairy backs. Sorry, can't get past it. I don't care how perfect for me he is.

that was the most honest answer i think i've ever gotten. thanks!

Hi, I'm Shade. I'm an artist, living in sin in a small town, hopping from job to job, and recieving no support from my family. I was diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder when I was 18. I've suffered through many, many, many bouts of depression, panic attacks and just plain fun ole' anxiety. Since I left my Mom's house years ago, I've lived a lot of places and met a lot of strange, horrible, and beautiful individuals. I've learned a lot about people in general and I'd have to say I'm a good judge of character.
As mentioned earlier, I'm "the artist currently known as starving". I do some oil and watercolor, but mostly acrylic painting, also some clay and metal sculpture. I appreciate all kinds of art and love to talk about it. I like to read, mostly twisted, weird fiction or memoirs about drugs and the fellow insane. I love all types of music, mostly rock, and doing anything outdoors, all my animals, horror movies, and mexican food...I drive an old, crappy, loud car that embarasses me and I just left my job at the art gallery, so as of right now, I am unemployed, livin' off my man.
