I'm sure it doesn't help that my best friend of 15 years is a good 4 inches shorter than I am, so it's kind of been a complex I have about all the people I'm close to I suppose! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2625079 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 21:07:35 +0000 snarkybiochemist 2625079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are about an inch apart I'm 5'10 and I do wear 2-3 inch heals to dress up. The only time I didn't was for our wedding and that was more due to the hem of my dress then my husband's ego. My mom is 3 inches taller then my step dad and she wears heals when they ballroom dance, it's adorable watching my dad lead. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2625063 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 20:25:13 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2625063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSCB: love those!

Haha. We are just about the same height; she's a wee bit taller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2625050 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 19:51:30 +0000 yin 2625050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both pretty short. I'm 5'3 and DH is 5'5 - 5'6. I still wear heels, and he just deals with it. Hehe. I was nice and only wore kitten heels on our wedding day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2625045 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 19:37:38 +0000 Periwinkle 2625045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is maybe an inch taller than I am but I am not a regular heels wearer. If we are getting dressed up, though, I don't hesitate. Height difference has never bothered either of us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2625021 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 18:27:45 +0000 nana87 2625021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but more because of comfort than anything else! I have a few heels I'll wear for special events but by and large I wear flats or very low heels. I have some low heel booties </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2625018 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 18:08:53 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2625018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: bahahaha exactly 😂😂😂 that's hilarious </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624797 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 11:02:16 +0000 MrsSCB 2624797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: 🙌🏼🙌🏼 of course I went to target for food and wipes and left with shoes... 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624752 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 09:48:00 +0000 lawbee11 2624752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSCB: I bought those same ones this past weekend!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624751 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 09:47:19 +0000 avivoca 2624751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 5'5, my husband is 5'6, and I do wear heels occasionally that make me taller. We're both okay with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624750 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 09:42:06 +0000 MrsSCB 2624750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not totally on topic, but if you're looking for booties, I just bought some super cute ones at Target. I say wear the heels and rock your height :-) </p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/women-s-dv-jameson-double-side-zip-booties-cognac-7-5/-/A-50730628" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/women-s-dv-jameson-double-side-zip-booties-cognac-7-5/-/A-50730628</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624688 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 08:08:37 +0000 erinbaderin 2624688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm already slightly taller than my husband, and I'm not much of a heels person anyway. I have some heeled boots that I wear to work, but when I'm out with him and wear heels (usually just to a wedding) I feel a little uncomfortable about being so much taller than him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624686 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 08:04:24 +0000 LuLu Mom 2624686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH is the same height as me and in the beginning it bothered me to wear heels but now I don't care! I bought the cute booties with a lower heel (really all I wear anymore anyway) i just don't' wear super tall shoes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624684 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 08:02:47 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2624684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dahlia: thanks! I'll check them out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624683 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 08:02:26 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2624683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarac: hahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624682 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 08:02:14 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2624682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ShootingStar: That's what I'm afraid of. I have no doubt I could find a comfortable, cute, low-ish heel but still feel weird in them all day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624664 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 07:28:10 +0000 ShootingStar 2624664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are about 2-2.5 inches apart and I don't wear heels. It makes me uncomfortable and I feel like a giant. But then, I feel like that anyways in heels. I'm only 5'7.5 and I still feel like I'm taller than most women I come across. And with heels I'm taller than many men too. I have one pair of wedges that I love the look of, but I feel self conscious all day when I wear them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624621 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 03:40:31 +0000 MrsKoala 2624621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are 2" apart and I definitely wear heels still! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624614 Wed, 21 Sep 2016 01:02:11 +0000 FannyMae 2624614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If the shoe looks good and fits, I'll wear it. Im 6 foot, hubby is a few inches taller than me, and I will happily wear heels that bring us to an even height/me a tad taller. nice shoes trump husband egos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624611 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 23:56:52 +0000 sarac 2624611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 5 feet even, so this is a fascinating look at tall women problems. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624608 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 23:29:24 +0000 Mrs.Panda 2624608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband is about 2 inches taller than me (I'm 5'9") and I avoid wearing heels because 1. They're uncomfortable and 2. Since I am bigger than him so I feel even more giant! I have recently lost a significant amount of weight though, so I may try some booties this winter. Because, so cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624605 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 23:04:13 +0000 Dahlia 2624605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the same dilemma, but the other thread about favorite clothing items just inspired me to go out and buy some booties for the first time ever. There were tons on Zappos/DSW with only a 1-2" heel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624595 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 22:27:47 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2624595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: haha! When I was pregnant with my first, people kept commenting on how small I was, so at some point I asked my doc about it and he said "well you're tall so the fat just spreads out". I'm sure he could have chosen his wording better but I still found it funny! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624590 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 22:13:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2624590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: I used to be more self conscious of my height. My height peaked in fifth grade, so I towered over everyone.</p> <p>Now I embrace it and love being tall! An upside to being tall is I carry weight better ;) hahaha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624584 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 21:48:53 +0000 Alba4 2624584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a 1/2 inch taller (I'm 5'9") than my DH and I'll occasionally wear heels. Due to comfort, I usually never buy shoes with a heel that's bigger than 2". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624583 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 21:45:58 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2624583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: well I'm 5'11" and I totally get the insecurity about height. I was pretty conscious of my height compared to the guys I dated until I married DH. Now I've realized that it's more important for me to dress how I want and be confident in it than to care if the height difference is 3 inches or 5. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624580 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 21:34:17 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2624580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: @mrs.shinerbock: I've always been slightly insecure about my height. I've never really worn shoes with much of a heel because I already felt that I was much taller than everyone else. But as an adult I'm seeing how limiting that is! I just wanted to know how other taller ladies felt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624569 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 21:22:26 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2624569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm 3 inches taller and wear heels for most dress up social occasions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-and-your-so-are-about-the-same-height#post-2624566 Tue, 20 Sep 2016 21:18:41 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2624566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're still about 3" apart, but when I do wear heels we're either just the same height or I'm slightly taller. Ha! He doesn't mind too much and mostly just laughs if I tease him. I don't typically wear super tall heels anyway.</p> <p>I did buy booties last year that are probably 1.5"? I mean I mostly wear them for me and most people don't really notice, so it doesn't matter if I'm the same height or taller! </p>
