Woman finds out how her husband really sees her - and goes crazy
New Jersey (USA) - That's what you get for marrying your childhood sweetheart! Karen (36) from New Jersey took a test last week that opened her eyes.
"When John and I started dating in high school, we were 14, 15. He wasn't much taller than me," the US-American explained in an interview with Newsweek this week.
Unfortunately, it was only then that the couple literally met almost at eye level. Because while Karen is now 1.48 meters tall, her husband John is 1.78 meters.
Last week, the 36-year-old followed a current TikTok trend. She adjusted her camera to the exact height of her partner's eyes.
When she then saw how John has been seeing her from his perspective for years, Karen went completely crazy.
Viral TikTok video makes Karen's "problem" clear
In this curious video, the TikToker can't stop laughing. Sometimes she holds her arms up to the camera like a toddler, sometimes she pretends to kiss them.
Everything Karen does only makes it funnier for her. "How can this man take me seriously? This is how he sees me, really?" she says at one point in the now viral TikTok hit.
"I saw this POV thing on TikTok and thought people were exaggerating, so I wanted to try it out. The bewilderment was a very strong reaction from me!" the woman told the US magazine.
Meanwhile, Karen's video has already reached 1.4 million clicks within a week, with more than 160,000 likes. In the comments column, people with similar size differences in their partnership report very similar situations.
That, in turn, pleases Karen. It's both hilarious and reassuring that so many people can identify with it, she explained, adding: "Who would have thought that something as simple as a size difference could generate so much conversation?"
