Is OTHER wrong in the post ? POST : Bear with me please I am on mobile
    
    So I recently made a friend in university and she's really fun, but we are just that friends.. or so I thought. Lately she has been very flirty and very clingy (although I hate using this word), I never flirted back and generally replied late because I don't use my phone much during the day. 
   She would send small quirky remarks about how I reply late,  but it started as remarks and soon begun as her complaining to me about not replying fast. I confronfed her about this and told her that even if I had a girlfirend, I am simply too busy in the day to reply fast to her. 
    This started her asking me if I like her and I told her not that way...just as a friend. This started a lot of fights between us for a few days and in the end I got fed up and told her the real reason i won't  date her. She is 144 cms and I really do not like dating a girl who is that much shorter than me (180), it's just my preference and I was always sure to not flirt or lead her on.
      I confessed to her that I do not like to date girls on the shorter side, she got really offended and yelled at me for not dating her only because she is short. She won't talk to me now. 
   I feel bad for confessing to her why I do not like her but I feel like nothing else would have have stopped these arguments and I wanted to save the friendship (haha). Was I an asshole for telling her why I would not date her?
