Could it work between a tall girl and a short guy?

Or would it look like they were holding hands with a child? As I like this guy, but he is shorter than me by about four or five inches. He is nice and confident and he has plenty of friends and everyone wants to know him. He treats everyone including me nice. How could I let him know I like him without it being weird?

To be frank, if you're taller than him by 4/5 inches, you'll be judged harshly by other people

But it shouldn't be wrong.

If you like him, just say "hey, I like you!"

As a guy, I'm sure he'd appreciate that approach haha

Some people say it's not about what others think, but sometimes I think it is. Someone's negative remarks could ruin relationships, so they should keep their nasty opinions to themselves or behind closed doors.

Thank you for your help though.
Does it matter if u both like each other?
My point is physical appearances don’t mean a thing in a relationship of love!!

Even though you said you wouldn't date someone way shorter than you? You give such mixed signals.

I'm 18, he's 21. So I don't think he'll grow any taller than 5'6.

Aren't Peter Dinklage and Warwick Davies married to people around twice their height? Of course it can work, if you are not the sort of person who lets what other people might be thinking about something that doesn't concern them get to you too much.

The guy I like though is way taller than them. He is 5'6.
