So im seeing this guy and the height diffrence is pretty big he's 6ft 2 im 5ft 2 (and 3/4) well we kissed for the first time a few days ago and i realized this would be a little bit of a challenge cause i was on my tippy toes and he was slouching at really almost wasnt enough anywho he keeps saying next time ill just pick you up so he is alot heavier than me he's 213 im 148 (65lbs) and he says he wont have any problem picking me up.....but im still scaried that he will have a hard time and he told me that he can lift alot more than what i weigh and it wont feel like anything but still ive been worried about this

So the question is, dudes/ladies do you think it'll be too hard for him to do it?

p.s i think this is the motivation i needed to get started again lol

    Well, theoretically I could and I'm a little 5'9" short *kitten*. It simply depends how strong he is.

    No worries. He can lift you.

    My husband is about 180, I'm 160. The other night as a joke I told him to carry my lazy self to the couch (two rooms away) and he did. There was no straining, no huffing and puffing or anything.

    I don't think your guy will have any problems.

    Don't worry about it. I can pick up my wife with ease and there's a bigger difference. I'm no bodybuilder either.

    I wouldn't think he would have a problem if he's in okay shape.

    I weigh 190, and lifting someone your size would be no sweat for me.

    The height difference won't matter as much if you're sitting down. Matters less when you're laying down, but I don't want to rush ya too much. :wink:

    When my husband could pick me up again was one of my NSV's. What he didn't expect was that I could pick him up now too (thank you deadlifts).

    Hehe, yeah, it's sexy as heck when a guy can pick you up and carry your around... Let him!

    You get used to the height difference pretty fast. When I first met my husband it was awkward to kiss him too. (He's 6'4" and I'm 5'5") After just a little while though it was no big deal. He never had to pick me up. That was 22 1/2 years ago and we'll celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary this Tuesday. Frankly, it would be weird to kiss someone who was of asimilar height (not just for the obvious "why are you making out with someone other than your husband?" factor. :laugh: )

    I know how you feel...
    I'm 5'4, 142 and my boyfriend is 6'0 190. Not much of a difference... I always feel self-conscious when he lifts me. But I got used to it, so don't worry.

    Lol even you could lift you... a strong guy could probably do it with one eyebrow and a 'the rock' expression.

  • He'll be able to pick you up no sweat! Don't worry! I can't freakin wait till I'm skinny enough to be picked up!!!!! That's one of my secret goals lol!!!!

    My husband is 5'9", 135 lbs, and I'm 5'8", 161! It's awful! I can't wait until I'm as thin as him, if ever.

    I think you'll be fine! :smile:

    I'm currently 143LBS (5'4''). Late last month in my Emt class, my instructor wanted one of us to volunteer to play 'victim', and this person was to be carried, lifted onto a stretcher, and also carried up and down the stairs. EVERYBODY looked at me! I'm like, "What the hell are you people looking at me for?!", not realizing I'm the "smallest" in class (oh boy, oh boy :happy: )
    The rest of the classmates had to pair up into group/partners of two, and had to carry me. One of the group, was two females who look like they're not capable of lifting heavier than 25 pounds :noway: . That literally made me scared for my life when they were prepping to carry me up and down the stairs, and I begged my instructor to not have my arms strapped in so that I can at least be able to grab onto something if they drop me :sad: (she said 'no' and that I had to trust 'em).

    Long story short, they didn't. They didn't wobble either (whew). I even have a couple guy friends who always love picking me up, and they are both like 5'8'' and probably in their 160's (twins), and they were able to pick me up with ease when I was in my 150's.

    Anyway, if they can carry me.......your boy most definitely can handle you! Trust him :wink:

    I'm 5'9" 165 lbs and a female. I could easily pick up someone taller than me that weighed more than me. If he can't pick you up it isn't because of your weight, it's because he's weak. Shouldn't be a problem.
  • I think he'll be fine. My ex who was 5'10" could pick me up when I was at 220. I always screamed at him for doing that because I thought he was going to break his back! :laugh:

    I'm sure he will pick you up just fine. I can pick up a lot more than that and I'm a girl

    Yes he can lift you... I can lift my 5'7" sister who is 138lbs and I'm 231lbs and 5'11" She's really light actually.

    Hiya :)

    I do not think it will be a challenge for him AT ALL!! Look at the positive side ` next time he will just pick you up ` :smile:
    I think you should not think about it and just go for it sweetie... It sounds like he does not mind so go for it xxx

    My wife is 5'2" and I am 6'2". Height is a non-issue for everything.

    I'm 5'6 and my late husband was 6'10!!! He used to pick me up all the time! He was very lean and toned but not bulky and I weighed about 140 back then, whereas he was about 200? I'd say don't worry too much, but if it provides you with motivation, take it as a positive and utilise it! ;)

    Here's a spin on it. I'm 5'8'' and less then 150 and my husband is 5'5'' (SHORTER THEN ME) and 180 and he can lift me! It's all a matter of strength I think. I don't let him though because I feel like a big doll LOL

    i weigh 15 punds more then my BF and he picks me up. It freaks me out every time but he can still do it. He is not crazy strong or anything. I think yours will be fine!
