Being A Tall Girl

A guy just admitted to me that guys don't like tall girls. That sucks! I've been 5'11" since jr. high. (however, I just measured myself and from my calculations, I'm only 5'10"... perhaps I have shrunk... that would be awesome!)

I have been called things such as: Big Red, Jolly Red Giant, Moose, Giraffe, Stork, Legs, String Bean, Stilts, Amazon. None have ever stuck as a nickname (I've never had a nickname) Usually they are just names that people call me to get my attention when they don't know me.

I always hear: Hows the weather?, Do you play basketball?, How tall are you?, Could you reach that for me?, Wow, you're tall!, You're too tall., Where do you buy pants?, What's your shoe size? Looks like you survived the flood.

So if guys don't like tall girls, what do I do? What happened to all the 6'1" and above guys? They are all dating short girls. :( No fair! Come on short girls, I have limited selection as it is. You can't take my only options.

It's just frustrating and annoying. I didn't get to chose how tall I was going to end up being. I always figured that guys didn't like tall girls, but to actually be told that guys don't like me becuase of my hight... well, it just sucks!

In high school. I'm the one in the light blue dress, a whole head taller then the rest (and I'm slouching)

Two years ago, and still a whole head taller.

Me with some of my current cast memebers. (slouching and still taller)

I found my tall man! (Too bad he's just a wax replica)

You are beautiful. Naturally elegant.
I'm 5'10'' and I have always preferred dating women of my height or taller. I'm attracted by them. So don't despair, if you can find your loved one...Look few inches below ;-)
