Tall and well-built has become my type. How can I give short men a chance? | Leading questions

Attraction can reveal unflattering truths, writes advice columnist Eleanor Gordon-Smith – perhaps reflect on what your preference says about your values

He can be described as an alpha male that anybody would want to date. He broke my heart so bad. The problem is now, “tall and well-built” has become my type.

I connected with some guy online. He seemed OK. He’s funny and genuinely interested in me. Then he threw me a question about how tall I was. I figured he isn’t so tall and he wanted to make sure he was taller than me.
