To the girl in the topic teased for being taller than boyfriend, don't sweat it! I am 5'11", my husband-to-be is 5'4"! We love each other, so we don't care what other people think of us, and yeah, I am a bit older than him, too. But, you're still young, he will grow, and even if he doesn't catch up to you, who cares? Guys like tall leggy women! (Or so I've been told by numerous men consoling me for feeling bad for being so tall.) I have NEVER dated a man taller than me, because I was 5'9" in the 6th grade! There wasn't much left if I was only going to date taller guys!

Hey Alice,

That's comforting to read. My boyfriend is 5'6" and I'm 5'10". I've always been self-conscious about my height, but he loves me for who I am and I certainly love him! So yeah, at least your bf still has some growing to do, and even if he doesn't catch up, like it's been said already, who cares! People are ignorant as a whole and it only matters how you and your guy feel about each other.
