Is is possible to cuddle someone badly?

( girlinthehole, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:00, 2 replies, latest was 15 years ago)

Not sure. Previous girlfriends have either cuddled well or not cuddled at all.
Having said that, they've always been a fraction of the size of me, so they probably didn't have much choice in the matter.

What is it with tall guys that always go out with very short women?
I see it all the time.
( girlinthehole, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:05, Reply)

I don't know.
I think it might just be bum luck with statistics, given that tall women are a comparative rarity, and all the medium-height people seem to cop off with one another before we've had a chance to look down and spot them.

In hindsight, I feel a bit sorry for them; it must have been a bit frightening to have some enormous crow bearing down on them demanding affection...

Think about it for a while

( Kroney, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:09, Reply)

Believe me,
they don't normally find it that one as funny as we do.
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:11, Reply)

The only negative is that we don't get to say
"whilst you're down there, love", as they're ALWAYS down there. Wasted opportunity.
( Kroney, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:14, Reply)

On the other hand
more opportunities for helicoptering. It's a dilemma and no mistake.

I think there was a study published a while ago
saying that there are genetic reasons (Dawkins!) behind this. They're also very cute (as opposed to scary) when they're angry.

Cute v Scary when angry
See Kroney's reply above and reconsider the risks.

Well quite
There's always the occasion when you feel her teeth brush against your throbbing helmet and think, "my god, pleasant though this is, I'm being very trusting right now..."

I like tall girls.
My first romance was with a lady only 2 inches shorter than me. That made her 6'1".

I'm sure my mrs pretended to be taller than she is to lure me in.

High heels: adding shape to your calf muscles, and deceiving your boyfriend into thinking that kissing you won't give him back pains in the long-term

(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:15, Reply)

that's the weird thing
she rarely wore heels.

I think I used to slouch a lot more. so really it was my own fault, but let's face it, my ex was about 5'3, my mrs is 5'8. That's quite an upgrade
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:16, Reply)

I've only been with one guy who was the same height as me.
The rest were slightly shorter. I would have liked to go out with a guy who was taller than me.

They can try and fight back
But we'll just pick them up by the ankles and hold them upside down 'til they learn better.

Yeah and hold them at arms length while they try to throw a punch.

It's not that much of a height difference!

Have you seen how tall Crow is?

( girlinthehole, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:24, Reply)

no
But I was talking more about you. Are you over six foot?
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:25, Reply)

I might as well be.
5'10"

But I am built like a brick shithouse.
( girlinthehole, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:26, Reply)

5'6" but nearly always in heels

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:27, Reply)

Steady, I'm only 6'2"
I'm still left looking up to Enzyme, both metaphorically and literally.
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:26, Reply)

I remember you taller than that.

( girlinthehole, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:27, Reply)

I think it's just because I'm quite broad at the shoulders.
Although if you check the bash photos, I look really tall in all of them except the ones where I'm standing around Enzyme and Pookie.
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:29, Reply)

is Enzyme really tall?

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:29, Reply)

He must be around 6'5", 6'6"

good job he is a scrawny looking bugger

quietly though, and not to his face

Oh man
they really hate it when you do that!
(Zoz prayed for twink on, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:23, Reply)

wrong
I have been every height from short, through medium until I reached the height I am now, and can categorically state that this height is better than all the others.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:19, Reply)

I discovered recently
that I have a 44" chest. Means little in practice as I still don't look all that wide and it's probably mostly moob even if I did, but it sounds a damn sight more impressive than 38.

Edit: This sounds like self-indulgence upon second read-through. I was supposed to be backing up the taller is better thing.
( Kroney, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:22, Reply)

is that across?

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:24, Reply)

Around under the armpits
I'd be the size of the average MPV if it was across.
( Kroney, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:24, Reply)

mine was 44"
but is now something like 41 or 42. Inconvenient as it means none of my old suits and jackets fit me.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:25, Reply)

Agreed.
Short people can't do smug and get away with it. If Stephen fry was 5'1" he would be punched in the face a lot. being a tallish chap, he gets away with it. Quite rightly so.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:24, Reply)

He's about six foot 4 isn't he?

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:25, Reply)

and a bit I believe.
But he does slouch sometimes.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:26, Reply)

He's been punched in the face at least once
quite possibly for excessive smugness.
( Kroney, Wed 22 Sep 2010, 11:27, Reply)

He's not infallible.
