The worst thing about being short is having to look up at people when you talk to them, of course it doesnt matter when you are sitting down . Im only 5'2 and i would have loved to have been just a few inches taller . |

At 18, you've pretty much finished growing. You could try eating healtier to become leaner, slimmer and in better shape which will prob give you more confidence and make you feel better.
theres no reason why height should stop you from doing anything, and its pretty clear that you wont grow anymore.
i understand that it can get you down, i know the feeling, but there are other things that make you attractive. focus on what you do like, and you'll be more confident. |
people grow into their 20s.... |

Just be happy with what you've got. I'm 18 and 5'1 and ya know what? guys like shorter girls anyway. Why do you think you need to be taller? Is it because the media portrays pretty girls as being tall and model like? If that's the case please just wipe that out of your mind.
Look at it this way...We're short so we can wear cute heels. Tall girls look ridiculous in heels.
Yes long legs are attractive, but so are short ones. Especially if you take care of yourself and work out. You can get some killer looking legs.  |

| Height is basically genetically determined. Most people reach that predestined height eventually - sooner or later, according to the conditions of their upbringing. |

| Short and tall can be attractive, why do you have to put down tall girls to feel good about yourself ? I think that's disgusting. |

Tried to ignore this thread.... can't.
If your height is seriously that much of an issue to you, then i'm sorry, you really don't have much going on in your life. I can think of few more issues to lay awake at night for.
Tall.....short. Accept your height and what you can't change, and change what you can to make yourself fell good. |

Yeah I'm 5'00.
i was looking on the internet for height remedies when i ran into this forum thing!!
i guess it wouldnt bother me as much if my boyfriend wasent 6'1 and i wasent sooo short compared to him. ive always been teased about my height. whats worst about it is that i have big boobs to go along with it!!! its very annoying, not fitting your boobs. who cares about having small boobs, at least you can jump around =D
but yeah im 16 and everyone says ill grow in time, but my mom is 5'1 and my dad is 5'7'!!! and i really want to be at least a couple inches taller so my body would thin out and my boobs wouldnt look so big on me...
^ ^;;
so being small is cool when your also thin and dont have big boobs. but theres nothing wrong with short peopel. its just how my body is put together with it =[[/i] |

Midget midget very small,
How you want to be so tall.
But you'll never be because its too late,
You've been made but cant get laid.
It does'nt matter anyway never the twain,
Big brain little body bow legged freak,
Mild & Meek talk like mice "eek !"
Le freak say chic.
"Ahhhh Geek out". |

wow, for you idiots that say its rediculous for us to be so worried about our height and need to use tall girls to help us feel better..if you only knew what kind of s h i t we go through! if you tall people didnt make fun of us then we wouldnt use you as a scapegoat for our feelings! glad i got that out!- but yeah i am 16 going on 17...im only 4'9 1/2 and i can really say that the only thing that makes me truely hate my height is the all the getting made fun of. kids can just be so down right mean sometimes. i am a straight A student and would love to pursue my hobbies and talents in alot of things but feel that my height holds me back but my mom tells me to not let that get in the way because people will accept you for who you are. i would love to have those long skinny legs and be able to find dresses that are short that are actually DRESSES and not long shirts! but hey god gave us all a challenge in life and mine just happens to be my height it comes with alot of ups and downs and alot of anxiety and buildup-which is why im really glad i found this site to know that there are any ppl out there like me! but i try to make the best of it and hope all my other shorties out there will too  |
