gareth.t - boyfriend material (official video)
to be honest, dating has always been a struggle for me. for one, i'm short and for two, i have subpar fashion sense, so my options are limited. i wrote this song after a few failed attempts at finding love. i was really sad. fortunately i met my gf @moonstyles_ not that long ago. but even she, who even though is way shorter than me, kept saying that it'd be ideal if i was a lil taller. hmmm.......i guess even she don't think i'm boyfriend material (・〜・)

I KNOW RIGHT! It's even better when they're hidden gems. On the one hand, it sucks that they don't have more popularity. On the other hand, it's kinda cool finding slappers that haven't blown up yet.
As a fellow 5’7 guy who has very bad fashion I can relate. Even though 5’7 isn’t really short it seems like it especially with people roasting me about my height. It also didn’t help that the one girlfriend I did get would roast me about my height in front of my friends, she said that she didn’t care that I was shorter than her, but that shit still kind of hurt. Good luck my fellow short brethren!
