I’m shorter than my girlfriend & always avoid her when she wears heels – she’s realised and is furious
A LOT of men can be insecure about their height, especially if they’re shorter than their significant other.
This Reddit user took it to the extreme when he admitted that he goes as far as completely avoiding his girlfriend when she wears heels because of how small it makes him look.
The couple, who are both five foot and seven inches, had been together for six months when he admitted the lengths he goes to.
“I know it’s not right to ask my girlfriend to take her heels off,” he said.
Adding that he instead uses “other tactics” to avoid being seen with his leggy girlfriend.

The user confessed that when he can’t avoid seeing his girlfriend but she has heels on, like when they’re walking from his car to a restaurant, he’ll lie to make her walk in on her own.
“I would tell my girlfriend that I left something in my car or that I didn’t lock my car or even that I didn’t like the way I parked.”
He said he’d tell his girlfriend to go into the restaurant without him and he’d catch up.

After months of excuses, his girlfriend finally caught on to what he was doing and was utterly shocked.
Telling him how stupid the whole thing was, the user said she seemed to be pretty annoyed about the whole thing.
Other Reddit users couldn’t believe how petty the whole thing was: “Pretty sure she has always known how tall he is. She doesn’t care. He’s making an issue out of something that isn’t an issue.”

Another added: “You risked her safety (since it sounds like y’all weren’t always in the best of places to walk alone. Especially as a woman) because you couldn’t man up.”
A third quipped: “Get over your insecurities and stop playing games.”
