Better Call Small

By not-so-young-shortie - 18/02/2009 22:57 - United States

Today, I was eating at a restaurant with my boyfriend. He's 6'2 and I'm 4'11. Out of nowhere, the hostess started openly flirting with him, and asked him if he needed a booster chair for his daughter. FML

He loves you. Ask yourself this. He is handsome enough for people to randomly flirt with. He is with you. This means you are very worth his time and his love. Be proud. Height is irrelevant.

It's happened to me too, hon. ETA: and the above replies are assholes.

# 2 - That is just plain ignorant # 18 - That is just plain...well, no, that is even more ignorant. My sister is 4'3". She is sixteen and never growing past that height. She weighs just under fifty pounds. There's absolutely nothing wrong with her, and we don't consider her to be a 'midget/little person'. She is completely in proportion. There is nothing you can do to help what height you are, barring surgery and possibly exercise. I myself am just over six feet and I prefer much shorter girls. Referring back to # 18, perhaps the reason you really couldn't get a girl in high school had more to do with your personality than your height, eh? Grow up. *Slight grin*

i dont know whether to cry or laugh, but being tall around short people is a problem. i one time took a girl shorter than you out to the mall. She said she was going to go to the bathroom and so i waited. i sat there for thirty minutes and didnt realize that she had come back and was standing by me the whole time.

I'm a 6'4" man -- and I completely agree with other posters that short girls are extremely beautiful. There's something very different and lovely in the looks of shorter women -- nobody looks more vixen-y than a short girl. I would love to date a short woman at some point -- and I also adore tall women -- but I've never had a serious relationship with either. No matter what, it should be about who you are; I hope you love yourself, even if you are short! Even though our society hates short people, there are lots of advantages to being short: try flying, driving in too-short cars, sitting in normal-sized chairs, or finding decent-sized clothes that don't make you look like lurch -- it's not as easy as it seems! I can also tell you that our bodies aren't built to be this tall, with problems like growing pains, back pains, injury-proneness, and much more. Even though I enjoy benefits of being tall, I'd rather be a couple inches shorter; 6'2" is a good, normal-looking height.

#121 - One begs to ask, why did she not say something if she was standing there for 30 minutes? Haha. I hope you two had a good laugh about that.

i am 4'11" and if i didnt have DD boobs then people would think i was 5 or something... my younger sister is taller so people assume i am the youngest...i get so pist Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 5'0" or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that

I CALL BS. What kind of waitress asks if a 4'11 child needs a booster seat?! Kids stop getting booster seats by the time they're at most 8!

Shakira is 4'11 and super hot.. I would pick her over any tall model type chick.. Short girls are the best. I never date a girl taller than 5'4 and i'm 6'2.. Tall chicks look like men.

Is that why the tall girls are models for Victoria Secret and such?? Because they look like men???

That sucks...I would have left her a penny tip. I'm 4'11 too, but my boyfriend isn't quite 6'.

I feel your pain, though I'm a couple inches taller (5'). My boyfriend's a bit taller than 6'2, also. But it happens constantly, only those girls think I'm his sister. We're only 16.
