Tall Girl Problems


1. Jeans, pants, leggings...just forget about it, you're essentially wearing capris.

2. "Wow, you're tall!"

3. "Do you play basketball? Or volleyball? You're telling me you let all that height go to waste?"

4. Need a date for an event? They will probably be shorter than you or the same height so don't plan on wearing heels unless you want to look like a giant.

5. "How tall are your parents?"

6. "How tall are you?"

7. Shoes, boots, any footwear...it's proportionate to your height.

8. Walking under a tree involves bending down so your hair doesn't get caught.

9. Longer limbs = awkward body movements.

10. Group photos consist of everyone looking cute in the first couple of rows and the top of your head in the back row.

11. Airplane rides mean sitting with your knees pressed against a strangers back.

12. Disneyland is fun, but your legs are not meant for those rides either.

13. Dresses, skirts, and shorts always look slutier.." it's because my legs are long."

14. You probably got dress code in high school.

15. You can never pass for younger...this means no kiddie meals and no discounts...even when you were actually 10.

16. People refer to you as giant...(the proper terminology is tall).

17. Falls are more intense because you're further from the ground than an average person.

18. Hide and go seek is not easy.

19. Desks are always a struggle because your legs don't fit.

20. Basically every day tasks are just that much more awkward.


If you're a tall girl, you know the struggle, but don't forget that there are positives to being tall as well. We have advantages when it comes to sports, people take us seriously, we can reach things on high shelves, we have amazingly long legs, and best of all...we have a higher chance of becoming models. From one tall girl to another, embrace your height and know that you're beautiful.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
