I always thought I'd end up with someone significantly taller than me because isn't that the "ideal" guy? Girls are always taught (maybe not explicitly, but it's true) that guys should be much taller than them. I think it has something to do with the whole idea that men need to protect women 24/7 and all that jazz. I'm 5'5", and I ended up marrying a guy who just barely hits 5'8". And you know what? I love it. So next time you think about turning down a date just because the guy is too short for you to wear heels, think about these things:

One word: kissing.

Sure kissing a tall guy can be fun. Standing on your tiptoes and being all cute. Aww. But let's be real; that gets old real fast. And it hurts your neck. So just think logically for a second and do the right thing! Save necks: date shorties.

Borrowing his clothes is much more practical.

I cannot tell you how many times I've borrowed Jake's sweatpants (I'm wearing some as I write this article, actually) or a t-shirt. And sure that's possible with tall guys, but it looks much less ridiculous going out in public.

They can't hide food from you on top of the fridge.

I mean they could, but that would require a stool. Which means that you would also have access to said stool. So really, you win here. No hiding those delicious Cocoa Puffs or popcorn from me, bro!
