As a 6"5' man, I'm frequently asked if I played basketball or football.

@FrostBorne Oh, you're lucky. I dated a man who was 6'5" and the question he got most was, How's the weather up there?

@Serenitree I've actually never ran into that question before, lol.

@FrostBorne When my dad first met my 6'5" boyfriend, my friend was slouching on the couch in our living room, with his legs stretched out in front of him. Our living room wasn't small, but once the furniture was in it, it didn't have much floor space for sprawling. Jack, the boyfriend, was beginning to gather himself to get up and shake hands with my dad, but he was a bit shy, because my dad was looking at him from his head to his feet and back again, and dad said
"Well" and that's when Jack finally got to his feet, and dad smiled and said "You do end, but you take a long time doing it". Jack thought he meant that it took too long to get to his feet to show proper courtesy and he apologized. Dad said "Why be sorry? It's not your fault your body goes on and on, forever!"

Then he sat down and so did Jack and Jack still looked kind of disconcerted. Eventually they became good friends, when Jack finally learned to understand dad's quirkiness.
@Serenitree Love this story! :)

@PoetryNEmotion My dad was weird, but people really enjoyed his company. I think no one could ever feel uncomfortable around him for long. He was just so affable. Loved to gab, which is where I get it, I guess.
