HELP!
Okay so there's this boy:). blah blah blah. He's so cute & all. He sits behind me in 7th period and I have 1st & 8th with him as well. We flirt ALOT & alot of people think we should go out. We're always together except outside of school. I signed his yearbook & he got mad because I didn't write my number! He can't stand me to be mad at him & will give me this pity sort of thing. I'm 5'2 5'3ish so I'm not exactly Shaq. The thing is, he's a little shorter than me! It really bothers me with a guy being shorter. I like him and all but I'm afraid that if I went out with him it would be wierd. I don't know what to do please help! I'll rate for GOOD answers.

OK...I know we all tend to get hung up on the physical appearance or age of a person. Trust me I wasn't allowing myself to like this guy because he was three years younger then me I'm 22 and he is 19. Then i looked past the age thing because he is the sweetest guy I have ever known. Anyways my point is don't get concerned over this height thing or what other people think. Buy him a nice pair of high heels...hehe. Take him as he his or if you don't some other girl might. I know you don't want that. :-)

First of all, I want you to please not ever say "a lot of people think we should go out" ever again. You're probably in the age range of 13-17, so I know what other people think seems important to you now but I'm telling you DON'T let other people get involved with you and a guy. Not your friends, your best friend, his best friend, no one. Especially if there's real potential there. I'm not saying keep it top secret, I just mean its no one's business, and believe me the second they know something's going on, they'll try to make it their business. They might even change their minds and say that you shouldn't go out with him. What then? Would you not? Maybe this is a little heavy for this situation, but I just think the sooner you understand this concept, the MUCH better.
With all that said, lets get to your actual question. What about his height makes you think it would be weird? Do you feel like if you go out, because you're taller, this means you should drive, pay for dinner and walk him to the door? You don't have to be the girl in "Sixteen Candles" that gets with Long Duc Dong. Going out with him will not be any different than going out with any taller guy. So don't sweat this. I think, from what you've said, that he likes you. Once you get to know him more and if he's wonderful, you won't worry about how tall he is.
I had the longest on-again, off-again relationship with a guy who is shorter than me. I thought about his height when he took me to prom and I wore high shoes; other than then, it never crossed my mind.
Think about Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, or every tall model who got with a short, old and/or ugly rock star...
If it still bugs you, hey, its not wrong that it turns you off. You can't help it. I don't like men with hairy backs. Sorry, can't get past it. I don't care how perfect for me he is.

He'll grow. Just go out with him.

Give him a chance. If he's a little shorter..it shouldn't really matter.
GIVE HIM YOUR NUMBER IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.
:P

hahah! hey thats so funny! im like that too... the guy has to be older and taller than me! but no seriously, if he is just a tiny bit shorter than you i think you should get over it and give the kid a chance! i mean guys grow a lot slower than girls, so before you know it he will be taller than you. one of my guy friends grew like a foot in one summer! if you guys have a meaningful long term relationship, chances are he will grow taller than you! and even if he doesn't, you will eventually get over it because of all his other great qualities! don't let that get in the way of your happiness, after all it really isn't that big of a deal... and i'm sure he hates it too! guys feel insecure when they are shorter than a girl! but it's summer now anyway, so just wear flip flops and stay away from heels when you are around him! it will be fine don't worry about it, no one will even notice or care about the height difference and neither will you eventually! :)
