Tall and short of it

[Bruizedapple]

Hi all,

quick question, my new boyf is 6"5. I'm not (5"9, little short man).

It's kinda wigging me out a little but he thinks Im being ridiculous as he doesn't see it as an issue. Anyone got a tall/short thing going on and does it work? Am I setting myself up for lots of little and large jokes? Am I gonna as be seen as his wife?

Should I just chill out and wind my neck in :)

It's not an issue, plenty of couples have a height difference. I imagine your new boyf will have this problem with most people he meets so give him a break!

I'm sure some people will crack the jokes but this will wear off and anyway, take no notice of them!

my bloke is taller I love it, makes me feel looked after and I think its cute when he calls me shorty. :-) But I guess its different for a bloke to be shortest.

Can't quite get over a guy being shorter than myself, somehow, I think 4get has said it - I like a guy to be taller than me as it makes me feel secure and looked after and i like a guy to be in control if you see what i mean.....

My ex was taller than me. Im 5ft 1! And hes like 5ft10!
Like 4getme I liked it. And he liked it. :D

[4getmenot]

spose a bit different you being two males, but someone has to be the shortest.

[Bruizedapple]

Hmm, maybe its differant for men and women!

When he said it made him feel all protective towards me it made me want to smack him :) Although it did also make me go a little giddy, but shush!!

Im sure I'll get over it, its just odd seeing people's reactions

My ex was 6'4" and I am 5'4". We were together for 5 years and the height thing was never an issue.

[~posy~]

my ex was 6'1 and i'm only 5'1! lol! was never a problem, apart from slight crick in neck when we kissed lol! xXx

An ex of mine was 6' 7" and I am 5'3"! I like taller men, but maybe that was a bit much...

If you like him, try not to let it bother you - the height difference isn't that huge. As CheekyChops says, take no notice of comments. People will soon find something else to talk about.

Speaking as a tall woman (5ft 11ins), I only ever went out with one man who was smaller than me, I didnt like it and we got lots of comments which were quite hurtful so needless to say the relationship didnt last long and I have always been out with taller men since!

[Bruizedapple]

BOO!

See, it's doomed, doomed I tell you :)

I can't respond to the comments, cos then I look like I've got short man syndrome. Maybe I should get some built up shoes, with goldfish in the heels

[Pippa68]

Nothing wrong with your height! Mr Pippa is only an inch taller than you and he is perfect for me..I am 5'2" :o)

[IzzieQ]

It's not doomed - especially if you get those shoes!

[tiggertan]

I'm 5'4 and my man is 6'5. We don't care! He's very handy to have around too!
Love the sound of the shoes, but how would you feed them?! Lol. X.

[Bruizedapple]

Thanks for all the love guys!

Sound advice from all, and think I'm gonna forget about the shoes, I.m not sure I have an outfit that would go
