I've just turned 16, im 1.6m. My boyfriends 17 and is 1.9m so there is quite a height difference between us. Im starting to get the impression my boyfriend is ashamed/embarrassed around his friends,family and even the public because of this height difference. He has told me he hates how people tell him im small, i remember he even asked me to not share a picture of us because of this height difference. The truth is i cannot grow properly, im not fully sure why but i just havent grown any in a long period of time and when i do i get these stretch marks..and i try to hide them from him :( this situation also brings me down, he cannot put his arm around me when we walk, i even have to stand on my toes to kiss him, its ruining our relationship but i dont know what to do.
I think my boyfriend has problems with our height difference, what can I do?

he shouldn't even say those things my dad was 6'4 and my mom was 5'3 and they never split up over that and never once told my mom he had a problem with it he shouldn't care what the friends say about it because they aren't with you he is so i'm really not sure why he would say that to you thats not supportive at all i would want to know why hes doing this myself
I think you haven't grown in a while because your probablly done growing my daughter is almost 16 and hasent grown in almost 2 years I think if. You feel he's ashamed in your height you should talk to him about about you can't change who you are and I think you height diffrence is ok I'm 5ft2 and my husband is almost 6ft1 I don't think height should mater in a relationship
if your boyfriend has a problem with someone about you that you can't change, then that is his problem. why would you want to be with someone who is "embarrassed" of your height? that's slightly disgusting! and to let yourself feel bad for this... that is not your problem. hold your head high, girl!
and by the way, my mother is 4 FOOT 8... my father is 6'3"... they've been together for 27 years so far!
