20 Truths Shorter Girls Who Date Tall Guys Know Too Well
Maeghan Siliezar

Honestly, we don't even mean to intentionally only date tall guys. Okay maybe a handful of shorter girls intentionally do... but not all of us! Granted, there are a lot of guys that are tall compared to shorter girls. (For example, I am only 5'3, so the majority of the guys out there are tall compared to me.) But when the girls that are 5'4 and shorter unintentionally tend to date taller guys more often, we come to hear, learn, and live many of the same things as each other.

1. The ongoing joke our guy makes about how nothing on the top shelf is unreachable anymore



2. And we hate to admit it, but when our guy isn't around, we realize how true that joke is and feel helpless when the thing we need at the store or at our apartment is too high to reach

3. We always get crap from our taller girl friends for dating tall guys because it "leaves guys shorter than them" as the only guys available for them to date



4. People always make fun of how far our boyfriend has to lean or bend down to kiss us

5. Your calves get stronger from all the tippy toe kisses



6. Most of our boyfriends make sure to spray their cologne down their torso so we can smell it

7. It's easy to spot your boyfriend in a crowd...



8. ...And because of that, when at a concert, we have to be the ones to go get any drinks or merch, because finding our boyfriend in the crowd is MUCH easier than him trying to find you.

9. You can stand directly in front of him at a concert without blocking his view.



10. But with that, we have to deal with the people behind him complaining about his height. Sorry not sorry my boyfriend wanted to make sure to get us a spot close to the front so I can actually see

11. He's basically a Forehead Kissing Factory.



12. Hugging them is the best because you can hear his heart beating.

13. Their sweaters and shirts are the most comfortable things you wear to lounge around in.



14. Sometimes they are so tall that holding his hand is awkward so you hold any other part of his arm.

15. When your tall guy is a little thin, trying to surprise him with a new long sleeve or pants is nearly impossible



16. If he is standing, selfies are the hardest thing to accomplish.

17. You have to always ask him to bend a little or you have to stand on your toes because selfies don’t come that easy!



18. Talking to him while you are walking next to him requires a stronger tone because if not, he probably didn't hear you, and then you have to repeat yourself.

19. Having short legs means double timing your steps when you're walking next to him.



20. While we may be given crap for only dating tall guys or may even be accused of being shallow for it... we love our tall guy more than the haters can ever imagine.


Disclaimer: There is absolutely nothing wrong with being a short guy or an average height guy. I have had many friend's that are guys in my life that have ranged from all sorts of heights. & every single guy on this planet has plenty of wonderful qualities and are just as eligible as any other guy.

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.
