ZAKIA and Rob met on Facebook five years ago. Rob reached out to Zakia but he didn't have a profile picture and the couple would FaceTime each other initially. Zakia was shocked when they eventually met in person and she learned he is 4 foot 5, and she is 5 foot 6 "Rob didn't tell me his height before we met," Zakia said. "He did have a lot of money at the time, he gave me $1000 when he first met me and we've been together ever since." Despite their love for each other, many people on the outside do not believe their relationship is real. "Clowns and trolls judge me because we are in a height-difference relationship," Rob explained. People on the couple's social media pages leave comments such as: 'He must get a disability check', "Is he your son?", "Why are you with him?" Rob said there are also questions about Zakia's intentions for being with him, saying that: "She must be a gold digger," and "She wants to be famous". In this Love Don't Judge episode, the pair hit back at their trolls...

00:00This is Zakiya. She fell in love with Rob.
00:05Clowns and trolls judge me because we're in a height different relationship.
00:09Rob didn't tell me his height before we met.
00:12Commenters on their TikTok question Zakiya's intentions.
00:15I think he gave me like $1,000 when he first met me.
00:18People don't believe their love for each other is real.
00:21Comments like, he must get a disability check.
00:25That he's my son. Why am I with him?
00:29She's a gold digger. She wants to be famous.
00:32To people that judge our relationships, y'all can f*** straight up.
00:36What?
00:37Did you want some coffee?
00:39Yeah, I had a long day in the club. I'm tired.
00:43My name is Kia, but I go by Kissy Face.
00:46And my name is Rob, a.k.a. Short Arm.
00:49I have never dated anyone shorter than me before.
00:52I'm 4'5". Every girl I've dated always been taller than me and always been beautiful.
00:58You don't have to do all that.
01:02Clowns and trolls judge me because we're in a height different relationship.
01:06My height is 5'6".
01:08And my height is 4'5".
01:10So, we met on Facebook.
01:12I was in the trenches. I seen her. She was beautiful.
01:15Rob was in my DMs and tried to shoot his shot.
01:18I slid in there and I striked.
01:20He was in my inbox, right?
01:22He didn't have a profile picture and he kept like pushing the narrative.
01:27Rob didn't tell me his height before we met.
01:30Later, I gave him a chance.
01:33He asked me a question like, what did I like?
01:35I was like, I like money.
01:3715-30 minutes later, he had pulled up on me.
01:40My friend went outside to see him before I actually went outside.
01:45So, I sent her outside. I'm like, girl, go see what he look like.
01:48She came back and she was like, girl, go outside and see him.
01:50I'm like, what is it?
01:52Like, is it this guy in this big suburban truck?
01:55So, he did have a lot of money in the past.
01:57I think he gave me like a thousand dollars when he first met me.
02:01And we've been together ever since then.
02:03I mean, nah, it wasn't love at first sight.
02:05It wasn't love at first sight.
02:07Because he didn't tell me his height still.
02:09Like, the height still was like a shocker.
02:15For me, about a year later, because I had stuff going on.
02:19I did have a kid and stuff.
02:21So, I had to, you know, make sure I stayed home with my daughter.
02:25I always knew I was attracted to her.
02:27She was beautiful. You know I'm short, man.
02:29Go ahead, give me some water. Can I get some water? I'm thirsty.
02:33So, we've been together for six years.
02:35Six long years.
02:37We've had our ups and downs.
02:39Our relationships are not perfect.
02:41But we definitely had like some rough days.
02:45She loved me. I love her.
02:47And to all y'all haters out there,
02:49stop hating on us.
02:51We love each other.
02:53I was born with a disability called arthrogryposis.
02:56Basically, it's like a leg and joint disability.
02:59It caused me to wear braces on my legs.
03:02Let's go get changed into our outfits.
03:04I was thinking that with this black dress.
03:07Yeah, I know that's gonna look good on you, boo.
03:10One day since I'm wearing black, you should wear black.
03:13Wear regular clothes.
03:15Like, I don't have to get nothing altered or anything.
03:17I go to the store and I shop till I drop.
03:19And I ball till I fall.
03:21I go in the store and I tear that **** down.
03:23Straight up.
03:25I do everything that the next man could.
03:27Probably battle.
03:29I be seeing a lot of different couples on social media
03:31with a disability or a different height and relationship.
03:34So, one day I'm like, let me just record or whatever.
03:38And when I put it on there, he didn't like it at first or whatever.
03:41But I'm like, oh, they really feeling us on here.
03:44Let me just make a couple more.
03:46So that's basically how TikTok came about.
03:48I'm tall. Okay, I'm 5'6".
03:51**** knew that when you met me.
03:53That's cool. That's cool. You know what I'm saying?
03:56We experience a lot of judgment, comments like,
04:00I want him for his money.
04:02He must get a disability check.
04:05I don't really love him.
04:07They don't believe that we're even really together.
04:10It doesn't make me feel no way.
04:12Because at the end of the day, I know it's fake and this is real life.
04:15We just be trying to look for basically to be a brand.
04:18You know, everybody, we just want to be a brand.
04:20And just to show people we be having fun.
04:22Like this is what we be doing in our life.
04:24It might look like I'm clowning him or, you know,
04:28like this just be really us, our everyday life.
04:32Us having fun, us arguing, us playing.
04:35It's just our, you know, our life.
04:37Just because he's shorter than me,
04:39it looks like something that it's not.
04:43If he was taller, maybe it wouldn't look like that.
04:45Some of the comments we've heard is that he's my son.
04:49Why am I with him?
04:51What can he do for me?
04:54Comments that stuck out to me the most is saying that basically, like,
04:57she's just using me and we're not a real couple.
05:00We don't worry about that.
05:02We'll get money and she got a limit.
05:04We're not worried about that.
05:05People would just basically like, oh, she's a gold digger.
05:08She just want me for my money.
05:10I didn't look at her like that.
05:12We'll compel that relationship online.
05:14It's basically like she want a platform.
05:17She wants to be famous.
05:19So I respect that.
05:20Let's get some money.
05:22He doesn't want to be on there and I do.
05:25And so that's where the conflict come in.
05:29Why is all this conflict?
05:31I just want some money.
05:32I agree.
05:33All y'all bad comments, all y'all criticism,
05:36I ain't worried about it because I know for a fact we really love each other.
05:40So it is what it is.
05:42But really, we really rock.
05:45They just want to break us up.
05:47Some of our family judges, some of our family don't want to see us together.
05:52But we're going to be together regardless and y'all going to hate that.
05:55Yeah.
05:56I mean, my grandmother, before she passed, she was against it.
06:00She didn't want me to be with a short person.
06:04You don't got to say all that on the camera.
06:06I'm not a short person.
06:09Same thing.
06:10People don't like that for the use of that word.
06:13A short guy.
06:14A grandma.
06:15Somebody's short.
06:16We don't worry about it right now.
06:17Say something different.
06:18But yeah.
06:19But that's what it was.
06:20My mama didn't want me to be with you.
06:22That's what I'm saying.
06:23She didn't want me to be with a slow person.
06:26Some people say like, oh, she's just using me.
06:29Some people say, oh, you shouldn't be with her.
06:32You should go and do your own thing.
06:34But at the end of the day, I love her.
06:37My family, they were shocked.
06:39My friends, they were like, oh, my God, he's short.
06:41Like, did I know he was short?
06:43Like, and I was like, no.
06:46It was something I had to get used to.
06:48But after a while, I started to love him.
06:51He's just a lot of knowledge with him.
06:53Things I didn't know before that he taught me over the years.
06:57I would say the dudes before Rob, yes.
07:00What?
07:01They was clowns, right?
07:02They was clowns.
07:03Yeah.
07:04It was different, yeah.
07:06Kid, you know, like, I ain't gonna lie, like,
07:08she there for me when I need her.
07:10You know, if I ain't had her right now,
07:11a lot of things that I went through,
07:13I don't know what I would have did.
07:15We gonna be together regardless.
07:17And to all y'all haters, go get some money.
07:20Worry about y'all 95.
07:24We really do love each other.

07:30He always have my back.
07:31He a great stepdaddy.
