19 Things Any Girl Dating a Tall Guy Understands

While each relationship is different and no two can truly be compared, relationships where a short girl is dating a tall boy have quite a few similarities. And although specific details of the relationship can't be compared to another relationship, there are a few truths that will make any short girl with a tall boyfriend say, "yeah that's accurate."

1. When going out in public people often mistake you as his younger sister.

"No we're actually dating, but thank you for making this awkward."

2. You still get carded for everything when you're with him.

Just because of your height difference people will often mistake you as being much younger than you truly are.

3. His shirts and sweatshirts become dresses on you.

Wearing his clothes is a cute idea until his comfy shirt falls at your knees.

4. And don't even get me started on trying on his pants.

It will appear as if your feet have magically disappeared from your body never to return.

5. You often find you have a sore neck and feet.

This is because you're constantly having to stand on your tip-toes and tilt your head up just to kiss him.

6. You have used your boyfriend as a mode of transportation.

His height makes for a great piggyback ride.

7. And while receiving a piggyback ride you resemble a backpack or a baby monkey on him.

Hey you can't help that you're that much smaller than him.

8. People often question how such a tall guy can date such a short girl.

And you remind them you don't choose who you love.

9. You're both the perfect height for each other for spooning purposes.

It's like a fun puzzle that you found the missing piece for.

10. And despite your short stature you still take up 80% of the bed.

It's something your tall significant other just has to live with.

11. You're constantly asking him to slow down while walking together.

You can't help it that you have to take twice as many strides to match his one.

12. Showering together can be a little...tricky.

One of you is not going to be under the water and thus cold, just something you'll have to accept.

13. Receiving hugs from him is the absolute best.

It's like a giant bear hug filled with warmth and love.

14. He has used you as an arm rest before.

Which is most likely not your fondest joke.

15. He's the first person you contact if you need something around the house.

"Hey can you grab that dish from the top shelf? Oh and while you're up there do you want to change the lightbulb that's been out for a few weeks?"

16. Taking pictures together is a learned skill.

Either your torso will be cut off or he won't have a forehead.

17. You'll never lose him in a crowd.

"Now where did he go...oh there's the back of his head, right this way."

18. You never have to worry about being taller than him while wearing heels.

Bring on those 5 inch heels.

19. And when you're sad he's always there to literally pick you up.

Physically and emotionally.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
