10 Things Tall Girls Are Sick of Hearing
Dramasian.com

As a woman who considers herself to be tall I have collected a few quips that I am sure all tall ladies are sick of hearing. Some things you may be surprised people have actually said, so here is a list of 10 things tall girls are sick of hearing.

1. " Wow! you're so tall!"

Thanks captain obvious. Odds are I've looked in the mirror a few times and understand that I am in fact tall. So congrats on making that acute observation.

2. "Good luck finding a man that's taller than you."

I actually don't need your luck but thanks anyways Sharon. If I was really that superficial, I would have a lot more things to worry about other than "if he's taller than me."

3. "I can't believe you're wearing high heels"

All I can say to that is seriously? You can't believe I'm wearing heels? I wasn't aware you had so much input in the matter of my shoe choice! I don't care if I'm 9 feet tall I'm going to wear heels if I feel like it.

4. "Can you move over please, I can't see"

Dude I'm sorry that my height is affecting your view but there's not much I can do about it, besides I ain't apologizing for the natural gift of height the Lord blessed me with.

5. "All tall people stand in the back. That means you too _________."

Great. Another picture where you only see half of my face and I end up looking like this guy did.

6. "You're dress is kinda short"

Okay, but have you tried shopping for dresses in this day and age? Because you look and look for a good one that actually fits your waist and bust and it ends up looking like a shirt on you because the dresses they make these days are as short as they come. So yes Becky I'm aware my dress is kinda short.

7. "Well I'm sure you would be great at Basketball and Volleyball since you're so tall."

Lol at this one because your height actually has nothing to do with your athletic ability. Speaking from experience I can honestly tell you being tall doesn't put you in more games over your shorter teammates.

8. "Well all tall girls are so thin, I'm sure you don't have to watch what you eat."

Not only is this inaccurate, it's also crossing the line. It's pretty unfair to assume that all tall girls are happy with their body image or can eat whatever they want. And body image is different for every girl no matter her height, weight or age.

9. "Are you sure you don't need more leg room back there?"

This one actually isn't that annoying it's just a reminder that you do in fact have long awkward legs that seem to prohibit you from fitting anywhere comfortably.

10. "So... how tall are you?

Ah, yes the question. It's not that you are ashamed of your height it's that they are asking you like they have never seen someone so tall before. And this of course makes you feel like some freak/giant.


So that's that! You can jump and jump but you are never gonna reach our level. Literally.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
