Hi, I just turned 13 and I’m 5’10.5”. I used to hate it because my height makes me look much older, cuz my legs are like really long compared to my body. Like I’m still young enough to order off the kids menu but some resteraunts won’t let me! People always say, “OMG ur soo tall!!” But now I’ve just learned to embrace it. At our last dance I wore...
To the girl who has a shorter boyfriend…I completely agree. I was obsessed with finding a guy who was taller than me until I met my fiance. He’s the same height as me at 6’ (maaaybe a tiny bit shorter) but it doesn’t bother me at all. I love him more than words can describe.
So girls, don’t get too hung up on finding a guy who is taller than you! I know it might be...
Tall Girl Prob
When you have to bend down so far to use the sink everyone can see your chest -__-
First of all, I love your blog! I thought it would be really cool to share my story with all you tall girls out there. I’m 6’0 and I’m currently 18 years old. I have always been ‘the tall girl’. Almost daily I get to hear: ‘oh wow, you are tall!’. And it’s not just strangers that point this out to me, it’s also the people that I see daily,...
I'm tall nothing I can change about it.
Growing up, like the elementary years, I thought that being tall was awesome and I loved it, and then middle school and early years of high school hit. Being tall for a girl wasn’t awesome and in fact you were a freak. This kid down the road called me a giant red headed freak, and eventually I got sick of it so one day he calls me this name I just full out run at this kid and jump on him and...
I’m 22 and 6’ since 7th grade. My entire family jokes at every family function about how my “type” of guy is at least 6” shorter than me. Other than the issues with clothes I love being tall.
msgamer1 asked: I just turned 14 and I am 6'1.5 ever since I was 5'11 I could never find any pants my length, and when I wanted a onesie I was the only one out of my friends who couldn't get one because my legs were too long it seems like I have been shunned from wearing clothes and to special order my jeans has been terrible I just want clothes that fit right!
july-love asked: I’m 20. All my school life, I was like a freak and hated my 6ft.But I accepted it. You showed me I’m not alone and people are haters cause tallness is beautiful. Contrary to what I’ve been told, I can date a guy shorter than me if I want, cause as Kid Cudi said “they gon’ judge me anyway, so -Whatever!” And yes! some short guys love tall girls. Now, I’m...
I just have to say, I love what the girl said about how she always told everyone she was 5’4” even though she’s actually 5’8”. When I was in high school, I was very adamant that I was 5’7”. In reality I’m only about an inch or two taller than that but she gave me a good laugh when I remembered that.
Also, I just want to thank the admin of this page....
Tall girl problems #287
When your date puts his arm around you at the movies, and you have to slouch down a bit so now your back hurts the whole time!
Love your height!
Hi girls!
I came across this blog while searching up “tall girl problems” on google and I just want to say love your height, cherish it!
Throughout my childhood people always noticed my height and they will always tell me I should either model or play basketball. I never took that into consideration until now.
I want to model and I’m 5’10 and growing. I never really...
Embrace your height and where I buy my pants and...
Hi Kendra! I see where you are 17. Stay strong girl!! I am now 28 and 5’10” and I wouldn’t have it any other way!! It was strange in high school because I was (and still am after going to my 10 year reunion a few weeks ago) taller than the majority of men and women in my class. BUT, once I got to college, most guys do not care that I am tall, in fact, they love it!! I also wear...
Hey! Not really a submit, not sure where else to put this. I wanted to say thanks so much for this blog, I am 5’10 and still growing and I used to hate it. I now feel incredibly confident in my height and am proudly wearing four inch heels to my school formal in a month and I love how tall I am.
I know many people will probably slap me in the face for this, but I’m 5’5 and I always feel soo tall….Is this classified as tall, short, or average?
Average. But welcome :)
Happy Mother’s Day to tall girls and their tall moms!! I’m the exact same height my mom was—5’8”. She was always proud to be tall, and so am I! :)
Tall girl, short boy.
So I’m 17, 5’10’ my boyfriend is 17 5’7’-‘8’ & we have been dating for 5 months. We get people looking at us and laughing all the time. We love each other way too much to even care what people think. It’s taught me a lot about myself, I was worried we would have problems with certain things and dealing with the height but everything worked...
boat-of-confusion asked: Wanting to wear REALLY high heels, but when you do, you feel like a tree.
vicweasley23 asked: In reply to the girl who is tall because of a long torso, so am I! I'm about half-and-half. But I love dresses that tighten a bit at my natural waist, because it makes my legs look longer (:
anonymnilpferd asked: Hey! I'm as tall as you are and hate to be tall too! I love your blog. XXX
goldenfirebolt asked: ok so I am the same height as you I'm 14
although i don’t particularly love being tall, this community seems so amazing with the way theres so much positive feedback and its soooo needed because theres soo much hate for some of these girls and they need love. Tall girls need love too!

I am 5’8” and my mom is 5’2”, and people have felt compelled to say “you’re taller than your mother” all the time, I have been taller than her for the last 10 years…we now proceed to snark about it as soon as it is just us seeing as I am nearly a head taller and it is insanely obvious that I am taller…it is much easier to deal with being one of the tallest in my family of you can laugh about...
to the girl that’s 6’0 & 14.., I’m 6’1 & 14, don’t sweat it :) — fadeddd-dreams
I’m 6’3” and last night was the first time I ever wore heels outside of the house. My heels made me 6’7”. My date was roughly 5’5”. I felt so beautiful and my date loved it. Someone told him he was a lucky guy, and he said he felt like a real man. I’ve always been afraid to wear heels, but now I can’t wait to buy my next pair. — mastercopysarah
Well, just wanted to say that my name is Kendra, I am also 17, aaanndd i’m 5’ 10” as well. Thought it was kinda weird haha

Jeans
Heya! If anyone following this lives in the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area, great places to find long jeans are Gabriel Brothers and the Gap Outlet in Hebron, KY. I know it’s always a pain to shop for jeans, and can be emotionally draining sometimes, and you might have to dig a little to find some good long jeans, but both of these places have provided me with great jeans.

Tall Girl Problem: When you grow an inch taller after high school.
Oh yes, a tall blog!!
I went through your blog, and there’s no problem that I can’t or couldn’t relate:D I’m 25 y/o and 185cm tall (and superskinny for that matter so I look even taller). And you know what, I freakin love it! When I was younger it bothered me, so much. Every guy was too short for me (because man HAS to be taller then a woman), and I almost grown a hump because of my bad posture,...
Sports
Hey y’all!!! So I’m 5’11” and I absolutely love my height! Like most of y’all I do find that it gets annoying when always asked some of the common questions and the comments about being tall. For me I especially find the question of “do you play basketball or volleyball?” annoying. I grew up with JRA which limited me physically, and I don’t like...
I’m 15 & I’m 5’10.5 & I’m still waiting to find a tall guy that actually likes tall girls. It bothers me when short girls say they like tall guys and when tall guys say they like short girls. Drives me crazy, because then what do we get? I don’t mind dating a shorter guy (just not too much shorter) but I just prefer a tall guy. Am I the only one with this...
second-handwings asked: Does anyone else have the problem that they're tall not because they have long legs but because they have a long torso? I also have big boobs. It makes finding cute shirts or long enough dresses impossible!
traditionallyunpredictable asked: So I'l like 5'11'' and while I love maxi dresses and skirts, I have yet to find one that's long enough for me without being too big on the hips. Where do you other tall girls get your maxi skirts?
boat-of-confusion asked: Until like last year, if anybody asked, I told people that I was 5'4". Note- I was 5'8" and fooling nobody. Partially, I hadn't been measured in a while, but also I was convincing myself that I wasn't this tall
nothing--without--you asked: Just letting you know that I love this blog so much! I don't have any really "tall friends" but on here I feel like I do!! Thank you!

Long Pants
I’m six foot, and I always see on here places to buy pants. I always buy my pants at Maurice’s. They have longs in store, otherwise they have extra long you can order online. That way you can try them on in store to see how they fit and special order them. I bought my skinny jeans there, just plain longs that fit great! They also have longs in dress pants, and is where I go when...

Flare denim jeans vs The Gap
Hello you tall beauties!
I’m 22 and I’m 185 cm (=6 feet) and I’ve been looking for a while for a pair of flare denim jeans (70’s style 38 inseam), found a pair at The Gap, naturally they won’t ship to Sweden, and the EU-site does not have any of the Tall clothes. (the pants) I happen to like the bohemic-retro-styled clothes but sometimes it pisses me off having...
Tall Girl Problem #1001
That moment when all of your short friends are marrying tall guys and you wonder if there will be any tall guys left
guys-iknowkungfu asked: My 11 year old cousin is the same height as me (5'9") and given the average age that females in our family stop growing at she still has four years and a major growth spurt. I can already see her falling into the same traps as I did. She slouches and avoids doing things because she is already so easily seen. It makes me so upset to know that just because some people have DNA that makes...
jerseagirll asked: Going off the whole clothing discussion as well... american eagle! they have the length x-long online for all different styles (skinny, straight, boyfriend, flare, etc.) and they tend to have the whole "all jeans $30 and under" sale every few months! Majority of my jeans are from there! (I'm 6'2" with very long legs and they're the perfect length!)
sisbee asked: To clarify my ask, I was responding to someone who was 17 and 5'11" who was saying she was uncomfortable in heels(their ask and my response are from about a month ago). I myself am in my twenties and 6'4". All my heels are 2.5-3", though I hope to very soon own a pair that is over 3"! Sorry about the confusion!
sisbee asked: 17-yo 5'11". Heels can be a challenge, and you'll catch some flak in them. My heels make me about 6'7", and sometimes I don't like the extra attention, but I can't say I ever regret wearing them. They make me feel powerful and beautiful, and that's mine to have, and yours. You're here for you, and for whatever else you choose. I hope you will embrace...
ashbash231 asked: Hey I'm 6 feet tall and can NEVER find shoes that are big enough for my feet. I'm a size 11. I hate it because my feet don't look good in the cute shoes that all my friends are wearing and I hate it! If anyone knows of a place to get good looking shoes for size 11 please help! (It would also help if they were inexpensive :) )
teanbean521 asked: 5'11" and 15 yrs old. my best friend is 4'11" everyone makes fun of our hight difference! i hate when i try on skirts or dresses theyre always too short! i always get detention for skirt length even though short girls are wearing shorter skirts than i am. ppl make faces when i say i want to wear heels. shirts are always too short and pants that fit around the waist look like...
