Love: Better Call Small

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

Today, I was working as a host at a pasta diner. The hostess I was working with was very attractive and we were flirting quite a bit. A large woman walked in to be seated, and I leaned over to her and dared her to ask the woman if she wanted two chairs. She leaned back and said, "That's my mom." FML

Today, I went to a restaurant with some friends. I noticed a very cute waitress about my age, so I walked over to her and asked if she had a boyfriend. The extremely fit, attractive waiter standing next to her immediately turned, held out his hand and goes, "Yeah. Meet me." FML

Today, I asked a girl at the restaurant I work at if she'd had enough to eat. When she said yes, I said, "Are you sure?" I didn't realize how insulting it sounded until her equally overweight mom was up in my face, demanding to see my manager. FML

Today, while waiting on a customer at a restaurant, I accidentally asked a midget if she'd like a children's menu. FML

Choked

Today, I went out to eat with friends. My crush was also at the restaurant with his friends. He smiled at me as I took a mouthful of food, and I choked. The waitress had to perform the Heimlich maneuver on me, while he and his friends fell off their chairs laughing. FML

Today, I was out to dinner with a friend I had a crush on. The whole time, he was flirting with the waitress while I was trying to get him to notice me. When we got the check, he looked at her and said, "She's not my girlfriend, I only go out with pretty girls. So, can I have your number?" FML

Today, I was at lunch with my girlfriend. The waitress came up and asked for her number, then asked if she had a significant other. I laughed as my girlfriend gave the waitress her number. They're going on a date, tonight. FML

Today, my girlfriend and I went on a date. I went to the bathroom. When I came back, she was sitting at a different table flirting with a guy that looked twice as old as her. FML

Today, I invited my girlfriend to go eat out, hoping to put her in a really romantic mood. She decided to tell her friend, who then invited herself and another couple along. I ended up being made fifth wheel, and had to sit alone at an adjacent table. 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.

eff them, i'm the same height and don't like short guys and what can i say i continually date taller! Started at 6 foot and the last one was 6'5" so ha! all the tall girls are just jealous cuz all thats left are the short guys well forget them. Just cuz you're short means nothing btw i have the best comeback for when people ask how tall you are...its hilarious!

4'8" is the height to be considered technically a dwarf. (Sorry if that was already said, didn't read through the comments.) Stop being douchebags about her height. I'm 4'11" and my boyfriend is 6'. Similar things have happened to me. You are not alone, babe! Don't let the assholes get you down.

tl;dr above. Short chicks are hot. That is all. Also the appropriate response is some sort of snobbish class-joke.

this one made me laugh really hard..mostly because three of my closest friends are around that height! and i make fun of them about it all the time..i mean i do think that the waitress was a bitch about it. lol. but honestly i know a lot of tall guys like short girls because they like to feel strong and protective..lol. i see nothing wrong with it..it's cute actually! :D
