The ups and downs of a tall-short duo.
By: Claire Hannum
Super tall meets super short, and we've got quite a few obstacles and benefits to the situation.
1. Kissing takes effort
You have to stand on your toes to kiss them.
14. Everywhere is convenient
Curling up next to them is the easiest thing in the world, whether you’re on the couch, on a subway seat, or in the car together.
13. Sharing is easy
And you never have to worry about them hogging the whole throw blanket when you’re sitting on the couch, because your legs are always short enough to fit underneath it.
12. Spooning
Being the little spoon is the best bear hug of your life.
11. The clothes
Borrowing their hoodies means you’ll be totally swimming in them. So much for that chic “post-one-night-stand-in-his-flannel” look taller ladies pull off.
10. Helping hands
To you, the most romantic thing on earth is them grabbing your favorite mug for you from the kitchen cabinet that’s too high for them to reach.
9. Travel sized
And they can pick you up and carry you around super easily.
8. Piggyback Rides!
They give you the best piggyback rides in the world.
7. Sitting = Equality
When you’re both sitting down is the only time you get a really good look at their face.
6. They're oblivious to it
They always forget you’re short too, because to them you’re just normal (And that’s a welcome change since you hear “hey, you’re short!” from everyone else 24/7).
5. Same old, same old
Which is weird because you always forget how tall they are since just about everyone looks tall to your petite self, even if they’re just a totally average height.
4. The comments
People always comment about how cute your height difference makes you look together.
3. Selfies, though
Couple selfies are a daily struggle, and you have yet to perfect the art.
2. Forehead Kisses
Their forehead kisses are unmatched in awesomeness because they have the perfect angle.
15. It's a match made in heaven
In fact, sometimes you think your height difference the most perfect thing in the world. How else could you get such great hugs?
