5 Questions For Tall Girls That Will Always Fall Short

As someone who is 5'11 I have had my share of annoying questions and as I got older I thought it would get better, but no till this day I still deal with them. I decided to make a list of the most common ones I have dealt so hopefully next time you run into a tall person you won't make the mistake of asking them these questions:

Do you play basketball/volleyball?

Giphy

Tall girls have more to offer the world than just sports, while some of us do play sports, it should not automatically be assumed that we do. We were not gifted with our height solely for entertainment.

How is the weather up there?

Giphy

I am sure people mean no harm when they ask this question. For the most part they think it's a funny joke, but it begins to become repetitive.

When are you going to stop growing?

Giphy

The average age for a female to stop growing is around 18 years old, but in all honesty we have no idea when we'll stop growing. If you are like me you've just always been tall and kinda just go with whatever your body does.

Why do you still wear heels?

Giphy

Tall girls want to look cute just like every other girl and it is annoying when our fashion choices are criticized.

How hard is it finding someone to date?

Giphy

We already get that the pool of males we can date is limited because of our height, so there is no need to be constantly reminded.

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.

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.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
