Im 5foot tall and my boyfriend is like 6 foot three. and he is also black and im white. the problem is im so tiny that people are asking me why i am with someone so much older than me. but the fact is hes only a year older than me. i get horrible looks off people because of how tall he is and how small i am. despite that i am really happy with him because he is the most caring boyfriend i have had. bt it does get me down when people think ask am i 14 when im actually a LOT older.

Well sweetie then you should take it as a compliment,,,looking younger than you are is a good thing...When you are alot older you will still look young. And the fact that he is blk and you r white,,people are always going to stare...I Know because im in the same kind of relationship. But i dont care if people look and talk,,,its just thier ignorance. Being happy with someone who treats you right is all that matters. Im happy for the both of you.

just ignore them. who cares what other people think when you know your age and his age and that u guys really care for each other. that's all that matters. if someone gets in your face, explain to them that they are sooo off base and that they should stop judging people and sticking their nose where it doesn't belong. you two are a pioneering couple it's not that often that you see a 5' white woman and a 6' black man toghther. believe it or not some people are still racist and they are among the people giving you two dirty looks. what you have to realize is that you are breaking down barriers and it's not going to be easy to be accepted by a vast majority of people. all you can do is hold your head high and walking proudly by his side telling the world without saying anything "i'm a confident adult who could care less what you think of who i date, so get over it". with that as your sheild and attitude, you'll be unbreakable.

Don't let people give you sh!t about it, that's what ya do. You can't let ppl's idiocy get in the way of your love life.
All you have to do is grab his hand, keep your chin helds high, and walk through the streets like your a Queen and he is your King. Together, Small and Tall. lol
And for the older thing, you could wear a big fat sign of your age, or you can act mature(which is no fun)
But I think to look older you should just...let them know. Look the way your age dfines.
Or you could stuff your shoes with tissue, lol.

I never got he "look" because of my size, but I have gotten it because of the inter-racial dating issue.
Best thing in this case is to follow your heart, don't let bad looks or even nasty comments to consume you. Don't let them win. Stick by the good guy you found, They are to many people that miss out on some of the best things in life and just because of a look you get or a comment...brush them off.

Take no notice people need to mind their own business, but many people like to pass judgment, and look in someone Else's back yard so to speak without clearing out their own rubbish...you should be glad you look young, don't listen to others, it's just jealousy. Good Luck.

I don't think they are looking at you because you are short.
Its because your with a black guy.... Most people have not
excepted mixed relationships. Face it, this is the way it is.
Myself, i think everyone has the right to choose how they live
their life.

Have fun with this. When people ask if you're 14, tell them of course not, you're really 12 and that isn't your boyfriend, that's your cousin. Then kiss him in front of them and tell them he's your "kissing cousin."

Tell them to shut up. You'll be looking older soon enough, be happy that you look young.

Do you care for others' comments? Just ignore their comments. Live your life.......the people who comment do not find for you, a suitable match. They won't help, but make many comments.

Don't let other people stand between you and your boyfriend. Be confident about yourself and NEVER give up!
