ok I need some advice, I've been dating this guy for a while and tonight we decided to make love for the first time, the problem is I'm 5'1 and he is 6'5, I love tall men and have been intimate with them in the past, however, tonight we found it difficult to find a position that was comfortable for us, I mean I love to be on top and that worked ok, but we tried other things and he either found it uncomfortable, or it was uncomfortable for me, if anyone has any suggestions they will be greatly appreciated.

I'm 5'2", he's 6'4" and the only position we've tried unsuccesfully is doggie (his height is all in his legs; I'm determined it's gonna take a stool to conquer it). We've tried doggie several times and only once was successful - me over the armrest of couch (hard on my stomach though). Despite our height difference, missionary works wonders, specially with my feet on his shoulders. He likes us laying on our sides face to face, yet I"ll eventually move us into a "T" position (kinda like WOT but laying on side) - he gets so deep that way!! His other fav is kneeling on floor with me on couch (great view for him 'watching in/out').

IMO, laying down allieviates our height difference. And I'm still wondering how to get a stool into our action because I would love to experience him taking me from behind while I'm standing.

thanks so much, it is so great and relieving to know that someone else had the same issue and continues to work it out, he is so hot and I just want to explore everything with him, he definitely rocks my socks...Anyway, it is so true about doggy style, I tried so hard, raising my butt higher standing on my toes which was very uncomfortable, but he also has long legs and no matter how hard we tried it just would not work...the stool seems like a good idea, maybe eventually we will try it, but in the end we gave up and just settled for me laying on my stomach and him humping away, it was from behind, but definitely not the doggy style that I am used to.

Where there's a will, there's a way. My DH is alot taller than I am as well, and a tall bed definitely helps for us. I realize that's not an option in the beginnings of a new relationship but it can help make up the difference with the doggy position. But a stool or ladder might be your best temporary option. Or one of those sex swings.

Have you thought about doggy lying down though? More like spooning?

Glad to see you are getting some help on this from people who can relate.


I'll just chime in that it's very early in the relationship, so try not to come to any premature conclusions about this.


In college, one of my friends was 6'7" and his GF was 4'10"--yes--a
