Truly tolerant people are in short supply these days, it seems it is too tall an order to be able to see short people as equals in society these days. I think it is below the belt to mock dwarves for their vertical shortcomings, and looking down on them is why we can't all see eye to eye here, and why they have such a short-fuse. As a smaller person, I feel like I drew the short straw in my gene pool.

That must've been very embarrassing and rude at the same time.

It's a "small" world OP.

The only form of little people I fear are Oompa Loompas... Creepy motherfuckers. Wee Man is cool.

I can usually allow for irrational fears, I have enough myself, but in this case I have absolutely no sympathy for OP. Get over it and stop being so ridiculous, her fiancé is just another person.

Well, it's just like any fear. If you don't give sympathy for this you can't give it to any fear. She can't control it whatsoever. Depending on how deep this fear actually is and it's origin, it may not be as easy as "get over it and stop being so ridiculous".

What makes this irrational fear so different from others that you belittle the OP for having the fear?
