    I can have my boyfriend on my back, and literally run up a hill with him hanging on. He didn't believe me when I told him my bighorn sheep thighs could carry his butt up the hill while running. He should know better than to argue with me and my crazy thigh strength by now.

    He's 6'2" about 180, and I'm 5'6" and around 145, so that's about an extra 35lbs and 8 inches he's got on me, and I don't have an issue with it. Of course, I wouldn't carry him up while holding him on the front, because that's just awkward. I guess if your boyfriend is into it, he could do it, though I can't imagine he's be able to do it for long, unless he's got some impressive shoulder muscles.

    Girl you should not worry one bit. I am 5'6 154 and was recently picked up by a 6'0 195lb man ...and that was from a sitting position on the sofa (I still have no idea how he did that! lol). So stop worrying...just enjoy it!

    My husband was able to pick my up when I weighed 170...I really don't think you have anything to worry about!

    Don't fret about it Just enjoy his sweetness at saying "Next time I'll pick you up".
    What a sweetheart :)

    If he tries to pick you up, it sounds like he should have no trouble. I get upset sometimes because I weigh more than my boyfriend, but he picks me up without a problem. It's easy to underestimate what people can lift, but don't worry about it and enjoy kissing this lovely guy :heart:
