    Oh yeah I just remembered my next door neighbour is going out with a guy who is alot more than 4 inches smaller than her. She really towers after him. They have been together forever. Suppose at end of day is it something you could get over?

    'well i've seen him since and he says he didnt text me cos he had no credit- he's really shy but just in general i am getting the impression he doesn't like me anymore... great, i've been used....'

    How old are you both? Is he earning money because he has no credit?
    You say he shy, so text him and ask him what kind of relationship does he wants, it best to be sure, without jumping to assumptions.

    am i being ridiculous? que stereotypical predictable answers! no your are not being ridiculous, im 6 foot, im not sure how id feel about going out with a 6foot 4 inches girl. If you were saying he was overweight or underweight etc it would go down much easier. Im not saying its a massive issue but i am saying that i wouldnt exactly just dismiss it off hand. The thing is when and if you went out, would it constantly get to you? i dont know but id imagine it would always be there. Anyway all im saying is no your not being rediculous, its your decision and we arent the ones who will have to go out with the guy one way or another, so its easy for us to voice an opinion, good luck whatever your decision :)

    I've seen him since (sober) and he doesn't seem interested- now he didn't seem interested (sober) before i was with him but surely even though he's shy, after being with me he won't feel shy? i mean he knows now i like him.

    No credit??... fair enough for 1 or 2 days.. you'd forgive him.. but it's been like 4 or 5.... respect yourself+ make him put more effort into seeing you etc...
    free internet texts etc... tut tut to him

    Personally I wouldn't let height be a big issue. Remember the old saying "little jockey big whip".

    '
    I know a lovely guy, we are not going out or anything but he has told my friends he likes me and asks me if I am heading out on a certain night etc. He is brilliant in every way except he's smaller than me, this is the only thing that's putting me off. I'm being ridiculous amn't I? I'm 5'8" and he's about 5'4".

    I'm sure he's mirrorning your exact feeling no. I'm a friend to you and I'll advise you, if you go to timbucktoo and back and go to an irish dancefloor, I'd get stares too but I'm not taller than my girl. And Golden called me lucky Mikey. Don't ever mess ur life up for a girl. They can't help you like family not there. Read my post and save it for life. I'm your mate and please listen to me, don't ever feel that low about you only a golden strike of luck for you I promise, if you change your views tell him if he's down not to feel bad if they slag him. So if you're down, tell her to say to him you're not short. I know mi key don't be low over your height because that's what they told me and now I'm a successful person. And the girlfriend will not be ashamed. Just remember not everyone goes for height. So remember I feel your pain so don't go to clowns tunes, you're not to be ashamed. Tell him that from me.Being blonde and being small is what monday blues call u goes to nothing but never feel down tell him. Height means nothing and love his eyes not his height.'

    Yeah, he's probably got a little jockey, if you know what I mean. Avoid him at all costs.
