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.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
