Hey softball6, I'm a tall girl too so I can understand where you're coming from. As you get older, boys will start to grow and get taller, so a few will probably be your height or taller. But if you really like someone don't let something as small as height stop you from dating them. The only reason people get embarassed about things like this is because they are worried about what other people are thinking of them. People will always have something to say about you no matter what you do, so you can't focus on them. And think about all the gorgeous women whose boyfriends and husbands are shorter than them. Victoria Secret model, Alessandra Ambrosio's husband is smaller than her. Top fashion model Coco Rocha, has a short husband too. Katie Holmes towers slightly over Tom Cruise and Usher has dated a few tall women. So just own that height and guys will like you. Hope this helps! xoxo

Hey! So I took your advice that you gave me before and went to this boy I like's basketball game. He did very well and I'd love to tell him that I think he's a really good player. Problem is, I have his number but he doesnt have mine. Would it be weird if I randomly texted him without him knowing that I have his number? Would that make me come across as kinda creepy? Or should I go ahead and make the first move? Thanks so much!!

Not creepy at all! Just be sure you text him ONCE, not a bunch of times. Start off with something like, "Hey, it's _(your name)_!" Then tell him you were at the basketball game the other day and he played amazing, you were so impressed, etc. Whatever you like

You can talk about all kinds of things! Sometimes it helps to jump in with a question first - homework and his hobbies are great go-to subjects. Ask him questions about himself and you'll get him talking! Keep your ears open for ways to further the convo by adding your own opinions/experiences, asking more questions, swapping stories, etc. And this article has some GREAT flirting tips to keep in mind while you're chatting it up!
