Girl don’t apologize for your preference in men. Men do it all the time! Lol I’m 5’10 so I completely get it! I’m married now but prior to I wouldn’t date anyone under 6’ either. 🤷🏼♀️
I'm 5'11, my husband is 6'6. He's the tallest man I've ever seen lol prior to him, I dated guys either the same height or shorter. I always felt huge next to them lol. I get the height preference!
My boyfriend got into his grandfather lifestyle of sleeping early and waking up early and no partying etc and dragged me with him and it has been the best thing thts ever happened to me hehe love this update ❤ so happy for you!!
I'm so happy you mentioned genetics as being a huge factor in how your body looks. It's such a sensitive topic and I appreciate you using your platform responsibly and with kindness in this area as well as the beauty arena ❤
As another 5’10 girl I SOOO GET IT. very valid reasoning for you to be hesitant imo because it is hard out here for us!!! But I’m so happy everything worked out, you guys seem so happy ❤
I have never dated but I got the same advice from a past co-worker if I ever decide to start using the apps. He said to go out with them right away instead of messaging back and forth. At first I thought that was crazy but he justified it the same way you did. It’s so much easier to get a feel for someone face to face (which is so obvious but in this day and age we’re all so stuck online) instead of through messages. Once he explained it to me it made a lot more sense just like how you said it.
I hate when men ask perfect first date questions over the app. My fiancee and I met on Hinge, and he asked me out straight away, we met the next day, and the rest is history
I 100% agree. As with any texting, you can read the message completely different than what was intended and it just starts a plethora of misunderstanding.
Hmm I did both and to be honest it's a big effort to get dressed up and set aside a few hours to meet someone and not to mention not knowing their energy if you actually think you're going to want to meet. So I think give it a week at least to chat before meeting and also make sure they arnt pressuring to meet or there are safety concerns
I am 5'11" and my fiancee is 5'9". I always thought I needed to date someone taller than me and man was I SO wrong about that. If I hadn't let go of that I would have missed out on the love of my life.
Bad men want to get us on a discount and pick-mes are trying to get picked so they try to seem like a better option than you because they have less standards. Not our problem tho, i just feel bad for both parties and move on, u don’t have to deal with someone that doesn’t appreciate you and 🤷♀️accepts your values
I don’t normally comment on your videos but have been a viewer and a fan of yours for years! It warmed my heart so much listening to you talk about your beau, and I just wanted to say how happy I am for you❤
He really is SO cute and it didn’t surprise me at all to see your insta pic because I just thought, “well she is drop dead gorgeous so that totally makes sense!” Stunning couple 💯💯💯
As a 5'4 women, who isn't tall herself, you have every right to care about height. Men date us specifically for our physical beauty, no woman needs to be shamed for her physical preferences in a mate. Honestly since you're 5'10, wanting a guy to only be 6 feet is rather generous of you:) 😉 The girls I know who are your exact height want 6'2 and above.
If the main reason you're not ready to get a second dog right now is the puppy stage, consider adopting an adult dog 😊 There are so many dogs waiting for a loving home and adult dogs are a lot less likely to ever find one, so it's definitely something to think about if you're able and willing to expand the family this way!
i rescued mine at 10 & 5 & while they still needed some work they have been such blessings - i can literally see how grateful for life they are. love love love this!!
Here’s a loose powder product pointer. Instead of completely removing the sifter seal off the product, just punch a few holes. Much easier to control. No spilling on yourself.
As a licensed veterinary technician for 30+ years and a caretaker of an adult rescue pitbull mix. Adopting an older dog is wonderful. My Katie was 5 yrs old and a breeder at a puppy mill in GA. She is the best 70# heated blanket I've ever had!! Many blessings!!💖💖💖
I met my husband on myspace when i was 19😂 we've been together ever since, about 20 years now. We get weird looks because he's 6'5" and I'm 5'2". It's amazing when you find your other half. I'm so happy for you!
@@GabbyRn hahaha so you know what I mean! Wow 4 kids! Bless you. Lol No kids for us. I turned him into a cat dad and now he goes on rescues with me, and keeps a stash of cat food in his truck, y'know just in case. 😆 I gotta admit, I miss the Myspace days. Ah to be young again
I am so happy that Quincy is doing well and his medication is agreeing with him. We need more Elsie content. I’m happy that we know who “that mans” is.
Fun video! So glad you are enjoying life. 😃 Ryan is super cute! The hubby and I met via online dating 20+ years ago before it was a thing. My friends/family thought I was nuts. Our first date (lunch date for his birthday) turned into a dinner date, I met his family a week later at Thanksgiving and he moved in a month later. 20+ years later, we're married and still going strong. We've had ups and downs, health issues, job loss, but hardship is temporary. Happiness is out there for everyone. Enjoy Abbey, you deserve every happiness that comes your way!
I am so happy for you. See in time everything works out, and you deserve this happiness. You have been working so hard and now you get to share your time with someone that puts that beautiful smile on your face. I live in Florida and Naples is beautiful!!!
You give me such hope with the apps. I hate them but knowing you disliked them and when you least expected met your love really gives me hope. Not that being single is awful I would like to meet a good one to share life with.
Ugh I'm so happy for you! When I first found your channel was back when you had moved to Chicago and you were doing lots of pretty big life updates at that time. When you first posted him on Instagram I was so excited to see how happy you both looked together. It's great to see you thriving and thanks for sharing this update with us. As always love your videos❤💌
So so happy for you that you get to work w your sis and get some relief, and get to have a companion for your pup, both might not seem major but huge huge life improvers. And the BF. Love seeing you come out of a hard time to more enjoyable life 💜
That's what happened with me and my husband . It was weird in our first day on match and few years later we decided to date again and never looked back
Hi Abbey, I’ve been following you for a few years, I’m 70 and it just warmed my heart hearing you talk about your dating experience and finding your beau. Love will happen when you least expect, it happened to me, I had given up then one day he just fell into my life, met him at the beach, after our first date we just knew we were soulmates, we got married 3 months later and just celebrated 38 years of marriage. I thank the Lord everyday for bringing me the gift of this wonderful man into my life. ❤️❤️
Completely agree with meeting up earlier with dating online (or talking on phone)... avoids the pedestal effect and you get a better feel about someone than email and text. With email and text communication, there is too much room for proofing and editing and someone could really end up different in person.
I met my husband through hinge! I felt the same way as you when I downloaded it and I was about to delete it like 2 hours into downloading it.. then all of a sudden my husband liked a photo and the rest is history 😁 so happy for you!
Hi Abbey, I’m so glad you found someone that you really like. I imagine it’s not easy to find someone that you really connect with. Have a good time in Naples..
So happy for you Abbey!! I remember the last life update in your dating life and you were just so focused on work, I’m so happy you found someone and have a better balance on everything. You were smiling this whole video!😊
Naples is stunning!!!! My husband works there in the winter. I hope you have a great time. It's super hot and humid there right now though. Don't forget your hairspray :)
Abbey!!!😍😍😍 Congrats!! So happy for you and your new man!!!! Everything happens for a reason. He seems adorable- glad he is awesome - you deserve that and I know you wouldn’t settle for anything less!!☺️❤️🙏🏻
You're right it can definitely take more than one date and I hate small talk! I think we hear about the first date love bc people are so happy to share and have such fond memory of that feeling
You are the little sister I never had and have always wanted!! So very happy for you Abbey!! Thank you so much for sharing the beginning stages of your beautiful love story. It’s only going to get better ❤️ Keep shining ⭐️
Careful with the medication for the incontinence issue. Our dog was also on hormonal meds and she got toxicity from it. She survived but it was so scary. I’m sure they probably already mentioned the possible side effects but we were not aware of this.
❤ What great news and I'm so happy for you. You really deserve every happiness after all your trials and tribulations. Love the Merit mascara, looks really pretty and I'm very picky about mascara. All the best!
The height thing wouldn't bother me if the MEN didn't have a complex about it! Almost every guy I've dated/been on a date with has been around my height or shorter, and it was always fine until they made ME feel weird about my height.... Like, neither of us can control our genetics, and if you're insecure about your height or stuck in gender stereotypes, don't project that on me... 🤔 NOW I have a preference for men who are taller than me. (And they act shocked every time they see me in person like they expected me to be lying about my height or something 😂😭 what in tarnation)
Abbey!!!! Whoo hooo!! This is the first video I didn’t pause for snapshots of products!! So happy about the awkward date that led to a great match!! I hope you had a fabulous time in Naples!
riding with a man in a car is a great way to get to know someone’s true personality. Are they a thoughtful driver? Do they get frustrated easily? Do they drive erratic, have a hard time making a decision on a lane or are they a granny driver who is super cautious?
I am *so* with you on the height thing. Im 5'9 and have dated men shorter than me, it's never a problem *for me* but I swear, they get so insecure and like they get little man syndrome. My boyfriend had told me he's 6'4 and I was a bit skeptical and it turns out he's 6'6 so it went the opposite way it typically does lol
I'm so happy for you Abbey ❤ For all of you who are searching for love, don't give up! I've met my husband 15 years ago on Facebook, quite before Tinder and other platforms. As I was living in Hungary and he was living in Italy, it took us 2 years of online friendship, until he came to Budapest to meet me. And now, we are married for 9 years, have an 8 years old son and living together for 11 years in Italy. It was my childhood dream to live in Italy 🇮🇹 Just be open for anything ❤
Abby as someone much older than you let me just say that you are such an inspiration. I find myself laughing that I’m following you, but I really enjoy your videos. My husband and I had the most awkward first and second dates. I was so confused by him. But this September we will have been married for 29 years. The chemistry was there the comfort level needed sometime to settle in. And, you and your sister got two Libra dogs-by the way, my birthday is October 14! I know I’m a little biased, but I think Libras are pretty fantastic. 🤣
I smiled SO big watching this! So happy for you after everything you’ve been through you deserve happiness! Also the height thing.. I’m totally with you on that, personal experience also. The dynamics are important! So much love to you and yours! 💛🌻❤️
No shade on the height requirement. One of my sisters (5'9"ish) married a guy who is about 2" shorter and the amount of shit she gets from coworkers, his family, and randos on the street and in stores is insane.
I am 5'10 and my partner is 5'11. I 100% get where you are coming from. Zero against shorter people but I've felt that weird dynamic. It's just a preference.
I super hope you did not pick this past week (6/10-6/14) to be here in Naples. Torrential rains that broke all records, flooding and many stalled cars. We never left the house!
My first date with my now husband was awkward. Ha! We both joke about it now. We were actually friends before our date, but somehow our date was sooo awkward. I'm so glad we gave it a second chance because we have been married for 18 years this June.
Naples is awesome but the humidity is killer. We’re actually going to Marco Island for a week the beginning of June. You should definitely go down to the Naples pier and take some pictures.
Wow, the hurricane was Sept 2022. Did you get to Marco Island? We like the beaches more than in Naples, however, we come to Naples for frozen custard as my wife is from Milwaukee and we don't have Culver's in SoCal.
Wow Abbey I feel so happy for you! Thank you for sharing this whole story with us. I am currently struggling because single in my late twenties and your story really was inspiring ❤
I'm only 5'1 so I've never had a problem with a guy being too short but you like what you like and there's nothing wrong with that. Also all the dating talk i hear about these days makes me glad I've been married almost 18 years lol. Happy you met someone
I feel like there's a big difference between men having purely physical preferences and Abbey preferring tall guys because the shorter ones get their backs up about *her* height. That's not a physical preference, that's a "avoiding common red flags" preference... Idk why people are equating the two
Born and raised in SW FL and Naples is absolutely beautiful. Hope you two have an amazing time together and I'm so happy for you. Finding that person is the best thing in the world especially if it is effortless and yall seem to have that immediate connection ❤ going on 16yrs with my hubby and I had to ask him out bc he thought he was too short & old for me. He is literally my best friend and I hope you two have that relationship too 💓
Girl don’t apologize for your preference in men. Men do it all the time! Lol I’m 5’10 so I completely get it! I’m married now but prior to I wouldn’t date anyone under 6’ either. 🤷🏼♀️

Same here! I'm 5'10" and my hubby of 24 years is 6'
I’m 5’9 and my husband is 5’10”. Barely squeaked by lol. And my daughter is 5’4”, took after her dad’s side.
i LOVE hearing dating success stories!! it gives me so much hope
❤❤❤
My husband literally flew in like an angel out of my friend zone after almost 10 years lmao there is hope, you can find love so unexpectedly ❤🎉
My boyfriend got into his grandfather lifestyle of sleeping early and waking up early and no partying etc and dragged me with him and it has been the best thing thts ever happened to me hehe love this update ❤ so happy for you!!
Ok RIGHT I love the grandma lifestyle
No doubt. Grandparents have life all figured out. Who knew? 🤷🏼♀️
So happy for you!!
I'm so happy you mentioned genetics as being a huge factor in how your body looks. It's such a sensitive topic and I appreciate you using your platform responsibly and with kindness in this area as well as the beauty arena ❤

I do that but then they never want to meet. I feel like I am wasting my time on the apps so I deleted them and haven't used one in 4 years.
I hate when men ask perfect first date questions over the app. My fiancee and I met on Hinge, and he asked me out straight away, we met the next day, and the rest is history

I’m 5’10 and my husband is 5’9. Only a REAL man can be confident and secure enough in himself to date a taller woman and hype her up like a Queen!
Hah so dumb. Not true. It’s about personal preferences and what they find attractive. Not about being A REAL MAN
Same height difference with me and my husband
I am 5'11" and my fiancee is 5'9". I always thought I needed to date someone taller than me and man was I SO wrong about that. If I hadn't let go of that I would have missed out on the love of my life.
@@yanelisoto1This, and also men are statistically more open to women of all shapes, heights, and variances. Few men are very picky.
Idk why people are always harsh with women's standards and always tell us to lower it when the same doesn't apply to men.
right? like every guy wants a gorgeous girl that's pretty fit... but what are they giving in return? shm
Bad men want to get us on a discount and pick-mes are trying to get picked so they try to seem like a better option than you because they have less standards.

The chemistry was there the comfort level needed sometime to settle in. And, you and your sister got two Libra dogs-by the way, my birthday is October 14! I know I’m a little biased, but I think Libras are pretty fantastic. 🤣
Good morning! I love that Peach & Lily spray ❤ I'm off to the rest of the video
Isn't it so nice!!
I smiled SO big watching this! So happy for you after everything you’ve been through you deserve happiness!
Also the height thing.. I’m totally with you on that, personal experience also. The dynamics are important! So much love to you and yours! 💛🌻❤️
Use tweezers to peel off that protective plastic on that powder… works every time.😊
I’m SOOO happy for you!🥰
best update ever! Beyond happy for you.
No shade on the height requirement. One of my sisters (5'9"ish) married a guy who is about 2" shorter and the amount of shit she gets from coworkers, his family, and randos on the street and in stores is insane.
Abbey please be really careful revealing your location and the name of their business etc. There are a lot of youtubers dealing with stalkers etc
I am 5'10 and my partner is 5'11. I 100% get where you are coming from. Zero against shorter people but I've felt that weird dynamic. It's just a preference.
Giiiiirl I know you, I‘m 6'0" 🙈 The struggle is real! Sooo happy for u ❤
you get me!!!
love that for you!!! i wish i had the motivation too… 23, never even dated and tired seriously.
I super hope you did not pick this past week (6/10-6/14) to be here in Naples. Torrential rains that broke all records, flooding and many stalled cars. We never left the house!
Ayo shoutout Naples Florida! I live 45 minutes away and was super surprised to hear that you were just here haha
My first date with my now husband was awkward. Ha! We both joke about it now. We were actually friends before our date, but somehow our date was sooo awkward. I'm so glad we gave it a second chance because we have been married for 18 years this June.
I am so happy for you!
Naples is awesome but the humidity is killer. We’re actually going to Marco Island for a week the beginning of June. You should definitely go down to the Naples pier and take some pictures.
the pier was closed because of hurricane damage!!
Wow, the hurricane was Sept 2022. Did you get to Marco Island? We like the beaches more than in Naples, however, we come to Naples for frozen custard as my wife is from Milwaukee and we don't have Culver's in SoCal.
Aw, your laugh at the ami cole spill was adorable and vivacious
My birthday is October 12 and my sisters is the 13th 😂 never met anyone who shared a birthday with us but now we know some dogs out there do ❤
i’m so happy for you with your relationship! ❤️ yay!!
Wow Abbey I feel so happy for you! Thank you for sharing this whole story with us. I am currently struggling because single in my late twenties and your story really was inspiring ❤
Ahh, Ryan is a fellow subject switcher!
I'm only 5'1 so I've never had a problem with a guy being too short but you like what you like and there's nothing wrong with that. Also all the dating talk i hear about these days makes me glad I've been married almost 18 years lol. Happy you met someone
I feel like there's a big difference between men having purely physical preferences and Abbey preferring tall guys because the shorter ones get their backs up about *her* height. That's not a physical preference, that's a "avoiding common red flags" preference... Idk why people are equating the two
You look so happy when you talk about your new guy. I’m so happy for you! ❤
Love the spring-y background!
Born and raised in SW FL and Naples is absolutely beautiful. Hope you two have an amazing time together and I'm so happy for you. Finding that person is the best thing in the world especially if it is effortless and yall seem to have that immediate connection ❤ going on 16yrs with my hubby and I had to ask him out bc he thought he was too short & old for me. He is literally my best friend and I hope you two have that relationship too 💓
