Right,
Basically I am 5 ft 2 so I am very short for my ages haha!
I've been bullied all the way through school for being so much shorter than everyone else but I finally felt accepted and even loved for this when I got with my bf [we've been together 14 months now].
Early on in our relationship he said that he "must have a thing for short girls"
But recently he said "I wish you could be taller"
Now, this really upset me, it has made me feel really horrible and unaccepted, I've had to restrain from saying "Well find someone who is tall enough!" but I wouldn't want to risk breaking up over this :S.

It just feels awful because I thought he loved me for how I am, not loved me but wished I was different.
Its not even llike I can do anything about iit, like if he said "I wish you were thinner" I could lose more weight etc... As stupid as it sounds i think it's almost as bad as saying "I wish you were prettier"

Am I overracting?
Please, tell me.

Yes your overreacting.
But your justified! Although its hurting you an irrational amount, your entitled to feel that way.
But i bet he doesnt think all the time oh i wish she was taller. It was most likely a passing thought, one that had to do with your imediate surroundings, like he wishes you were taller so holding hands while walking was more comfortable or something. He didnt say it meaning he loves you any less or doesnt accept you the way you are. He probably for the most part loves your shortness.
So relax:]

yeah, i wouldnt worry about a statement like that.

hell, i wish my hubby was taller too. ive even told him "your short" we were having a bit of arguement and kind of bashing eachoher a little.

hes not short, hes 1" shorter than me and im 5' 11".

i also wish he had bigger muscles - that he works on :)

but i would never end the relationship because i wished he were taller.

It sounds like he meant in a completely harmless way and didn't mean anything by it, we all 'over think' things at time, but I really don't think you've anything to worry about :) xx

Thanks for the replies everyone :)
It's so annoying I just seem to overthink everything :S

But meh, I'm over it now, it's just at the time that it seemed so huge :S
