I'm 5'2, my bff of 1 year is 5'3. At first, I didn't mind he was so short and I even thought it was cute, but now, it's getting on my nerves. I keep wondering whether people think I'm desperate for dating such a short guy. Should I breakup with him?

You've been with him for a year, and it's just NOW starting to bother you? Sounds like it's not really the height that's the issue, but maybe you're just looking for an excuse. Couple of things...
First, he has absolutely no control over his height. Not really fair to be annoyed with him over something he has absolutely no control over, is it?
If you love him, his height wouldn't really matter in the first place. And if it did, your love for him would allow you to let it go.
Sounds to me like you're insecure. Why should you care what other people think? These are people who know nothing about your relationship. If they're judging it based on the fact that your boyfriend is short, then they are ignorant and shallow.
My boyfriend is short. He's just about the same height as me, maybe a slight bit shorter. (I'm about 5'5") People make comments about his height all the time. Guys, especially, have given me a lot of crap on occasion about dating such a short guy. These people to me are the ones who are ACTUALLY annoying- and on top of that they are completely ignorant and stupid. People who make such judgements definitely lose credibility in my eyes.
I love my boyfriend very much and we've been together for about 4 years. Do I occasionally see other couples, where the guy towers over the girl, think it's cute, and wish we were like that? Yeah, sometimes. But I would never dare to hold my boyfriend's height against him, and loving him has nothing to do with how tall he is.
Does it bother me? Only thing that bothers me is the ignorant people who harass me about it. And in those cases, I put them in their place and let them know how shallow their judgement was. I love my boyfriend for who he is and the memories we have and the commitment we have made. Height doesn't once enter into those things.
If his height really bothers you that much, and you can't get past it, then he's just not for you. And he deserves to be loved unconditionally, not to have a physical characteristic that he has absolutely no control over held against him.

If you truly loved your boyfriend for who he is, you would not be bothered by his height. It's not like he's shorter than you. Couples that are around the same height look better together, not to mention that it's easier for you to kiss him. You don't what to look like the Olsen twins and their boyfriends who are almost double their height. And for the record I'm 5'7 and my bf is 5'6. I know some people talk about us behind our backs about how the girl is taller than the guy, but we don't care because they are just shallow and ignorant.

You're just looking for an excuse to break up with him. After a year his height suddenly bothers you?? Grow the **** up. If you're not interested in him anymore let him go so he can find someone more worthy.

Sounds like you wernt really into dude romantically in the first place...personally i dont think height/age/size/anything should matter other than your feelings towards them and theirs towards you....if you're complaingin about his height which he really cant help for, think about what you're going to complain about in the future...i say stop playin with him and find somebody you're really into

If you dont like him anymore then break up with him. I dont think other people really care that you are dating a guy who is close to your height but if you want a taller guy for for it

if you break up with someone just because he's short, i pity you. i hope he gets away from you soon...you might lose a great guy because of your shallowness.
my husband is 2" taller than me. it's his heart i'm attracted to, not his height.
