LOVE!, they say has no color, neither does it discriminate. Well, the story of the world's shortest couple is indeed a reference point.



The world’s shortest couple, "Paulo Gabriel da Silva Barros" and "Katyucia Hoshino", have proved that size doesn’t matter when it comes to love, these lovebirds, both from Brazil, measure less then three feet tall each, they both have forms of dwarfism and stand at 34.8in and 35.2in respectively.

The pair, who hope to enter the Guinness Book of World Records, said they met on a Social Media website a little over ten years ago and started chatting on MSN Messenger.

Paulo 30, who has a rare genetic condition called 'Diastrophic Dysplasia Dwarfism', said it was love at first sight for him.

"I found her very beautiful from the first moment I saw her,’ he said.But the attraction wasn’t mutual. Katyucia, 26, who has "Achondroplasia Dwarfism", which affects bone growth, initially blocked him on the instant messaging site. She said: ‘The first time I started talking to Paulo, he was really annoying. He had cheap-pick up lines.’
Paulo, who works as a legal secretary, said: ‘She thought I was trying to flirt but I was just being nice. According to her I was a really boring guy."

That would have been the end of the matter, if Katyucia hadn’t suddenly decided to unblock him 18 months later.Katyucia, who now owns her own beauty salon that has been specially adapted for her size, said: ‘One day something happened in my head and I went and unblocked him. By then he was already more sociable.’
Paulo said:
‘When she unblocked me, it didn’t take me more than a minute to say hello. we started speaking and she said I was more civilized.’

Two months later, Paulo travelled more than 186 miles to Katyucia’s home city of Londrina to meet her.
He said he was bowled over by Katyucia’s beauty, but she was shy and unimpressed with his dress sense.
Paulo said:
‘What most attracted me to her, besides her beauty, was how sweet she was. It was her sweet personality.’

The beautician said: ‘He was wearing an orange shirt, jeans and sunglasses – thank God it has improved since then.’
Despite Katyucia’s concerns about the long distance between them, five days later the pair started dating and after four years they moved in together.
Katyucia said: ‘I had never dated before so Paulo is my first boyfriend, my first everything.’Now they say they’re are like any other couple. Paulo has a specially-adapted car to enable him to drive, while Katyucia’s beauty salon has been specially modified for her height.Paulo has a specially-adapted car to enable him to drive. Paulo, who has ambitions to run for mayor in his home town of 'Itapeva', said:

"Basically, we are a normal couple but our height is a little smaller.The best thing about our relationship is our closeness, our companionship we have for each other.‘She supports me in everything, she’s my little warrior.’
Katyucia added: ‘We fight like every couple. A couple that doesn’t fight isn’t a normal couple.Our thoughts match, our ideas match, our feelings match and that’s really cool.His best quality is his simplicity. He is a person like any other. I think as a couple we are both different people, we aren’t the same person. We discuss our relationship, sit down and talk and get to a resolution.I have a really difficult temper; dealing with me is not easy, but Paulo is so understanding and patient – that’s what I find most attractive about him.’
Together the couple enjoy travelling, going out, and eating ice cream and Japanese food. Katyucia said: ‘The things we most like to do are eating and sleeping. Those are the things we do best.’The couple say their small stature means they struggle to use cash machines, public bathrooms and reaching for their beloved buffets.Paulo said: ‘The only difference that I see are things in public spaces. For example, an ATM was made for people with normal height. It’s a simple thing. A person with normal height has access but we, unfortunately, don’t have access."

Katyucia added: ‘One of the difficulties I encounter is with the oven, the sink, the washing machine and opening a window and opening doors.’The smitten couple who have been together for 8 years are open to the possibility of children in the future – although it may be difficult for Katyucia to carry a baby full-term because of her size.She said: ‘We’ve discussed having kids. My pregnancy would be high risk because the size of my uterus wouldn’t support a baby.
‘We’ve decided to let things happen at the right moment. In regards to the future we say: ‘never say never’.
Even" Romeo and Juliet" would grin in envy seeing this Cute couple with a Love story such as this, LOL.
