Today, I was eating at a restaurant with my boyfriend. He's 6'2 and I'm 4'11. Out of nowhere, the hostess started openly flirting with him, and asked him if he needed a booster chair for his daughter. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was working as a host at a pasta diner. The hostess I was working with was very attractive and we were flirting quite a bit. A large woman walked in to be seated, and I leaned over to her and dared her to ask the woman if she wanted two chairs. She leaned back and said, "That's my mom." FML
Today, someone thought I was my boyfriend's daughter, instead of his girlfriend. I'm 4'11", he's 6'2", and this has happened four times already. FML
Today, I was on a first date. I asked her what she brought to the table since I’m a pretty well established guy. A voice in the booth behind me yelled out, “How bout a booster seat, Smurf!” Everyone laughed so hard I got up and left. I’m 5ft3 and bitches always make it about my height. FML
Today, someone asked me if I was my boyfriend's little sister, just because of our height difference. He's 6'2", I'm 4'11", and this is the fifth time it has happened. FML
Today, I went to a restaurant with some friends. I noticed a very cute waitress about my age, so I walked over to her and asked if she had a boyfriend. The extremely fit, attractive waiter standing next to her immediately turned, held out his hand and goes, "Yeah. Meet me." FML
Today, I asked a girl at the restaurant I work at if she'd had enough to eat. When she said yes, I said, "Are you sure?" I didn't realize how insulting it sounded until her equally overweight mom was up in my face, demanding to see my manager. FML
Today, while waiting on a customer at a restaurant, I accidentally asked a midget if she'd like a children's menu. FML
Today, I went out to eat with friends. My crush was also at the restaurant with his friends. He smiled at me as I took a mouthful of food, and I choked. The waitress had to perform the Heimlich maneuver on me, while he and his friends fell off their chairs laughing. FML
Today, I went out to eat with my girlfriend. The waiter came up and was being nice. He said, "What can I get you two gentlemen?" FML
Today, I was out to dinner with a friend I had a crush on. The whole time, he was flirting with the waitress while I was trying to get him to notice me. When we got the check, he looked at her and said, "She's not my girlfriend, I only go out with pretty girls. So, can I have your number?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

He loves you. Ask yourself this. He is handsome enough for people to randomly flirt with. He is with you. This means you are very worth his time and his love. Be proud. Height is irrelevant.

4' 9" is a midget. not 4' 11"
weepingangel_fml 7
Actually, 4'11" is the maximum height to be considered a legal dwarf. I should know. I, too, am 4'11". I'm proud of it, too!
weepingangel_fml 7
I meant by the age you are 18 and are 4'11" you are considered a legal dwarf.

It's okay. My boyfriend of 1 year is 6'5 and I am 5'1. It's a huge difference, but who cares what others think :) it was unfortunate that she flirted with your boyfriend though. I would have stood up to her and kicked her in the shins.

Same. My bf is 6' 2'' and I'm 5' 2''. Was weird in the beginning for me too, but I'm used to it now. The waitress was an obvious b*tch though. Although I'm very shy, so I'd ask my bf to shoo her away instead xD

Actually, 184, 4'11" is legally a midget. I would know...

That's when you stand up, smile sweetly at the waitress, sit on your boyfriend's lap in public, and start making out with him.

I'm a little less that 4'10. 0.o my boyfriends around 6'-something. it's not all that uncommon to be short, and many guys prefer short girls..

Way to make fun of someone's height, people above me. But damn, that was cold of her. Get her fired. =/
AninOnin 24
That's a tad harsh.
AliSama 17
#9 she made a mistake, some people do look very young. People have thought i am much younger then my rl age. It happens. It is a double thing. She looks younger then her age, this is a plus in my book_^- getting someone fired over a misunderstanding which she didn't' even insult or do anything intentionally is meaner then anything that happened above. Her loosing her job may put her in the streets etc. that is evil.

But...even five years olds are out of high-chairs. They, my friend, are puny. Although I suppose the average infant is around 4' 11". Oh yes.
JuggaletteKlown 0
I'm pretty sure it was clear she didn't need a highchair therefor the waitress was just being a bitch, even if she did genuinely believe she was his child. now, when people go on dates, it's normally pretty obvious they are on a date/together. I doubt she missed that. for being a bitch, it's only fair karma f*cks her over and causes her to loose her job, preventing her to further flirt with men on dates with their girlfriends.d: poor OP.

no im pretty sure its under 5'
Alphonsuuuu 0
No, it's way less than five, and they are additional parameters as well, such as proportion.

I've looked this up before because I wanted to see if I qualified as a midget. The legal midget height is below 4' 10".

It also matters how old the girlfriend is

I'm 4'11" too! Well, rounded up. And my boyfriend is 6'1", and he's only 5 months older than me. 4'9" is the legal height for being a little person, I think. There are taller little people but I personally am not, I just am short, but in proportion. One of my best friends is 5'1" and her fiance is 6'5".
