The compromise I've made is that if the guy and I can literally see eye to eye when standing, he's okay, which typically means he's no shorter than 5'9". I lucked up once, with a guy who's 6' 7", but he was kinda extra short someplace else, if you know what I'm saying ( and I think you do!), but the two fellas I'm seeing now are both 6 feet.

Oh man, this post made my crappy day a little better. I am still laughing as I type this. So thank you. =]
I'm on the taller side as well (5'8'', the tallest of the family besides my dad, who is just barely 6'0''), and all the guys I have dated have been around 5'9'' up to 6'3''. My "ideal" height is 6'3'' for a guy, so he's always several inches taller than me even in my highest heels. I guess I've always felt like the giant of the family, so a big tall man would make me feel smaller in that respect. Of course this is just something in my mind, I know what really counts. =]
And I agree with you, it does seem like all the tall ones prefer petite girls. And I'm not really attracted to men shorter than me...call me seduced by traditional images, but I really do prefer dating someone taller than myself.
