Dear Abby advises a woman who wants more romance in her relationship and a wife who is sick of hearing comments about her husband and son’s height.
My man and I have been together for two years. He has his own place, and I have mine. We really enjoy each other’s company. I have a 13-year-old daughter. The issue is, we haven’t been out on asince we’ve been together. I feel, at some point, something’s got to give. I have mentioned it to him a few times already. What’s a woman like me to do? —If you want a mate who is a self-starter, this person isn’t it.
They have had it with these insensitive, intrusive comments. While I, someone of average height, think a commenter may just be trying to make conversation — and height is a respected attribute — it’s nonetheless offensive. My son or husband would never ask anyone in retort, “How short are you?” or “How much do you weigh?”
A social group called Tall Clubs International was formed many years ago so they could socialize without feeling self-conscious.
