Girls: Dating taller guys?

Ok so I had a girlfriend for a little over a year and we broke up a few months ago. I have just been having fun, but there is this girl I am really into. All our friends kind of laugh at us, I am over a foot taller than her (She is 5'3 and I am 6'4)... I do not really care but it seems to bother her. Is it that I am so much taller or that her friends are laughing? I just want her to be comfortable around me I am really starting to like her.

Any advice would be appreciated.

    I am 5' 7 and my boyfriend is 6' 6. I used to have a lot of issues trying to kiss him, until we finally found the right way.

    1 We are both sitting/laying down.

    2 I stand on chair/couch/etc.

    3 He kneels on the ground.

    4 He picks me up.

    5 I sit on his lap.

    6 And there's way too many more!

    Im guessing its because her friends are laughing, I like taller guys( but im 5'9 so its kinda a given) but i think most girls would find it comforting to have a taller guy,but it really depends on the girl, since all girls are different, just ask her if the height difference bothers her, thats how you'll find the real answer.:]

    the problem is that there is nothing you can do about the reaction of others when it comes to this. I used to get a lot of crap from my friends about my ex, he was over a foot taller than me as well, lol, which didnt bother me until it got annoying listening to my friends snicker about it. The best you can do is talk to her about it because realistically, that sort of thing shouldnt bother either of you. Give it time and dont let them get to her and things will cool down with them. Best of Luck!

  • LISTEN TO ME. I once dated a guy over a foot taller than me and I absolutely LOVED it. When a guy is way taller than a girl it just looks adorable. Don't listen to anyone else, if she on the other hand starts to react to the criticism then you either have to talk to her about it or move on because the fact that you're tall won't escape her mind. Good luck!

    It seems to be a mixture of both. She probably feels awkward about the high difference and is more aware of it because of her friends. My advice would be to tell her you don't care about what her friends think and try to think of a way to be romantic about it or joke around about it. Either way, don't take it as seriously as everyone else and if she really does like you, she'll catch on and not take it as seriously as well. Good luck man.

    I think either she or her friends are really stuck up and stupid. Most girls like taller guys anyway, so I'm confused on why people are laughing. Are you positive it's about your height compared to her's, or something else?

    My friend was 4'9 and her boyfriend was 6'3 and all the other girls were laughing at the height difference. Tell her gently not to give a lot of importance to what other people say.

    i can totally help you here!!!! my boyfriend is also a foot taller than me and i am a little bothered by it.....and sometimes my friends do laugh but i laugh with them...but my bf doesnt mind at all!!! in fact he trys hard to make me feel comfortable by complimenting me like saying i dont care about your size, you are still beautiful to me. he always picks me up alot and it's sweet! so jsut try to help her feel comfortable. tell her that her size doesnt matter that shes beautiful anyways. u=im not sure if it will help but it sure did for e. and it wont help to maybe kiss ;)
