hes shorter...


Question Posted Sunday July 17 2005, 6:11 pm

17/f
Alright, i feel silly asking this question but sometimes i feel weird that my boyfriend is a bit shorter then me. I love him very much and he loves me back even more and a feel like this could last for a long time. Should i talk to him about this (but i guess its not like this is going to change it) or what should i do? Am i stupid for feeling like this?

Hmmmm, Just look at Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman, every picture you saw them in she never looked taller than him. ( I think he had shoes with a big sole on them and she wore flat shoes all the time)

dude no dont feel silly

i like guys that are taller too... but uhh to it easy and just go with it
or maybe you could tell him you want to break up up.. or maybe he will grow more...

most guys that are in high school grow more during there high school yrs and possibly a little in college

so maybe he will get taller..

height shouldnt really matter if you really love him. if it really bothers you, say something and maybe he will stand up straighter or something. but it shouldn't matter.

Its not stupid to feel a little uncomfortable at times but it isn't a big deal. If you're in love just enjoy it and don't worry about the superficial stuff. Don't mention it to him, might make him feel awkward or something. :)

salemwolf answered Monday July 18 2005, 3:48 pm:
your not stupid. i've felt that way when i dated shorter guys. well i can only get shorter guys because they always seem to be the kindest to me and im so tall that almost everyone is shorter than me. just be open with him and tell him how you feel. if he truly loves you he'll understand.

no you are not stupid for feeling this way my boyfriend is a bit shorter than i too and i am used to guys that r taller than me but if you love you gotta accept for who he is or how short or tall he is trust you'll find some way to get used to it

VixenDark answered Monday July 18 2005, 7:53 am:
Nope. It is a stereotype that the guy is taller, so you feel awkward.

Don't bug him about it. He'll probably feel self-concious or, god forbid, wear platform shoes.

If it makes you feel better though, wear flat shoes, so the height difference isn't so great.

But other than that, it will just take time to get used to. DOn't let it ruin a good thing. ^^

ShannonxKellyAdvice answered Monday July 18 2005, 2:40 am:
You're not stupid for asking that. I had a boyfriend wayyy shorter than me, and I still loved him, but we broke up. But not cause of that reason. Well, don't say anything, cause he might get shy around you now. So, you shouldn't care what people think. Just go with your own opinions. I hope I helped you out. =)

xGAWSHNESSx answered Sunday July 17 2005, 10:58 pm:
No, your not stupid for geeling like you do. It's actually completely normal and there's usually always something about who you're with that you wish you could change. But, it's not important enough to talk to him about, like you said, it's not like he can change it. Just remember that you love him and he loves you. Look at what you have and think about how stupid it would be to lose any of it over a height difference.
Hope I was able to help

yea it might feel a little oqward but you get used to it. And in a way it should really get in the way of your love. I have a major crush on this guy thats like 4 inches shorter than me but im starting not to care cuz hes a great person. But yea it does feel alittle strange sometimes. but just think. they have to live with it but then again they get used to it.
hope this wasnt too confusing lol

i*m tall and i pretty much always have bfs shorter than me but idk.. if you feel like his height is interfering with the relationship and you feel like you can*t love him b/c of it i guess look elsewhere. But if you feel like you realy like him this shouldn*t matter.. just try getting to know him because sooner or later you*ll see more than just his appearance but prolly a really great guy that loves you more than you know! good luck and i hope you do the rite thing. xoxo <3 chelsea

koshii answered Sunday July 17 2005, 8:32 pm:
It's all right to admit that it weirds you out a little. It just shows that you've been influenced heavily by your culture, which tells us women should be submissive in size and strength to their men.

If you talk to him about it, you should lead up to it jokingly, I think. Something casual like, "I love you, my hobbit!". Then hope he doesn't take offense to that.

But really, you could say that sometimes it feels weird that you're so tall, but remember that models and actresses are encouraged to be tall for a reason. You can gain weight and it will spread itself around much easier than if you were short! Believe me. I'm 5'3", and every pound shows.
I have to get rid of this ten. It's making me insane.

Anyway, maybe it's a sign you should take a more dominant role in the relationship? ;)
It can work out, no problem. Try kisses while sitting down if it really feels bizarre. And remember that odd couples usually make it.

HyperactiveMiss answered Sunday July 17 2005, 8:16 pm:
It's okay to be a little embarrassed your boyfriend is a little shorter than you. It's natural because most guys are talling than girls. But don't let that ruin a wonderful relationship! I don't suggest you tell him because it's not like there's a magical pill that will make him grow 5 inches in a week. Just remember to only talk to your boyfriend about things that you guys can actually work out. Otherwise it would just make the matter worse.

Me_Help_You answered Sunday July 17 2005, 7:54 pm:
Don't think you're stupid or weird that you feel this way. Your absoultly right that the problem is never going to change. You should really not tell him, becasue that won't do to good on the relationship!

Hope I helped!

dancinqueen08 answered Sunday July 17 2005, 7:40 pm:
You're not stupid for feeling that way, but I don't think you should tell him. Guys' egos are damaged pretty easily and that wouldn't help the relationship much. I agree with what you said also about it not going to change. Unless you want him to start wearing platforms, the situation is going to remain the same. If you love him like you say you do, in time you won't even notice it. Hope I helped.

hey yeah it's not good that you feel that way. if you really love him, it shouldn't matter! i wouldn't talk to him about it because it will probably hurt his feelings. you really just need to get over it and love him for the way he is! it may not be what you want to hear, but it's the truth.

hope this helps- :)
