A six-foot-two-inch woman who was bullied for her height has candidly revealed how dating is almost 'impossible.'<br /><br />Marie Temara, from Palm Beach, Florida, said she had been battling stigmas her whole life, but the biggest struggle had been finding a partner.<br /><br />The 28-year-old said that critics claimed she could not be both tall and feminine - but she was determined to prove them wrong.<br /><br />She now hopes to change the dating stigma that 'men have to be the taller ones in the relationship.' <br />Marie has said that dating has been hard as only two per cent of the population in her native Florida are taller than six-foot, three inches.<br /><br />'I will admit it is extremely difficult to find a guy taller than me. Dating at my height is almost impossible because it is so limited,' she told NeedToKnow.co.uk.<br /><br />'One guy I went on a date with said he was 6'5 on his online dating profile, but when I met up with him he was at most 5'11.<br /><br />'I've been told "no one likes tall girls," I look like a "man in heels," I'm "too heavy to be a girl" and that "the Giants are looking for a linebacker."<br /><br />'I would never wear heels and would slouch in public. I'd do anything to make myself appear shorter to fit in.<br /><br />'However, recently I have started dating shorter guys, and now that I'm open to dating at any height, it is much easier to date.<br /><br />'But sometimes it's still difficult to find a guy that is okay with me being taller than him.<br /><br />'I hope to change the dating stigma that "men have to be the taller ones in the relationship" because height shouldn't matter.
