Is my boyfriend too tall for me?
So, I'm kind of short, I think. I'm like 5'2" or 5'3" so and I don't think I'm going to hit any more growth spurts that will make more more average in height. I never really had a problem with being short and my boyfriend hasn't really said anything about my height in comparison to his yet.
My boyfriend is something like 6'6" though and he's a year younger than me. I was thinking that he might hit another growth period and get even taller because I heard that boys mature faster than girls.
My best friend said we look weird together because he's so much taller than me and I'm sure she wouldn't lie to me about it. Yeah, my boyfriend has to bend down a lot to give me a kiss but I think it's cute that he lifts me up a little when we hug.
I don't know though. I don't want to be made fun of, especially if people are doing it behind my back and I don't know about it. My best friend said she'd stick up for me but I don't know if it's worth it. From how she described it, it makes me nervous that I'm not going to be able to make new friends next year (because they'll be laughing at me) if I'm still with my boyfriend...and it's kind of wrong to intentionally date someone for just a few months, right?
What do you think? Is my boyfriend too tall for me?

My boyfriend is a foot and a half taller than me....he's 6'5 and im 4'11. Don't worry about what people think of you because in the end it doesn't matter. Everyone think that we a cute because we make our height distance work so well. Don't give up! you'll be fine

I don't think it's a problem at all. If he's a great guy, why should his height matter? Also, personally, I only think it looks weird when the girl is taller than the guy (I'm not saying this would be a deal-breaker, just that it looks kind of awkward).
Also, there are many advantages to being shorter (You even mentioned some in your question!).
My boyfriend is only an inch taller than me. So I can't wear heels without looking like a giant next to him! And he can't pick me up for too long (tall people tend to weigh more than short people).
Don't worry about people making fun of you. If they would laugh at someone about something like height (and it's not a SERIOUS height issue, either), they're idiots.
Don't make decisions about your life based on what other people think. If you're happy, why should you risk that happiness?

I am 6'6". My wife is 5'3". We will celebrate our 12th anniversary as a happily married couple this year.
She gets to wear heels whenever she wants, and never has to worry about being taller than me.
When she sits on my lap, we see exactly eye-to-eye.
Whenever we ride on an escalator, she stands one step above me, and we take the opportunity to kiss.
And if your boyfriend can't date girls who are a lot shorter than him, he may need to give up dating altogether. Help the poor guy out!

For some reason we all seem to obsess over the wrong things. What really matters here is whether your boyfriend treats you well; if you enjoy being with him and if the difference in your height bothers either one of you. If the answer is yes, yes, no then don’t worry about what others think say or do. Just enjoy the time you spend with your boyfriend.
Dating is all about getting to know someone. Finding out if the two of you are the perfect fit we are all looking for in a life partner. When I was in the Military one of my friends was 6’6” and he married a girl who was 5’ 1/2” and was far from pretty. Once you got to know her she was the most beautiful person you would ever want to meet. He had his short comings in other ways but the thing of it was, and this is the most important part, they were a perfect fit for each other. Their strong points made up for each other’s weak points.
The only problem they had was when people judged them on looks alone and didn’t take the time to get to know them. For the people that didn’t take the time it was their loss for these were two beautiful people.
So my advice is not to worry about what others think or say. Let you feelings be your guide and you will have a much happier life.

too tall?? ask your soul this, Do you love/like him alot? do you want to be with him? if both point to yes then height shouldnt be a problem nor is it a problem worth sacrificing a relationship over.
Its wierd how some people seem to care so much for what others think about thier choices, personally i wouldnt give a hell if some one told me the girl im seeing is wrong for me. If the loves there then the heart wants what it wants.
dont worry, if he's a nice guy and you like him >>height is not an issue ever<<
