i wish i was taller too. but you just gotta shrug it off there's nothing you can do about it. anybody worth your time should notice the other qualities about you - not just your height, or even your physique should factor into the love equation.
it does to blue what blue does to you

You say in your post that you don't feel like a man coz you feel short. What makes a man a man is not his height, or his muscle but his balls thats what makes you different to a girl mate stop the insecure talk and man up

Don't be self-conscious about your height. I'd prefer to date a guy taller than me, but if he had a great personality then it wouldn't matter how tall or short he was. Some women are just mega bitches when it comes to insignificant characteristics like height.



Its not insignificant if you actually admit that you would prefer to date a guy taller than you.

Sure I'll admit it, but did you read the part right after? Height isn't significant enough to get in the way of wanting to get to know someone. Sure I'd prefer it, but does it really matter? No.

Women like to feel safe. Women like to show off their accessories.

A taller man can provide that safe feeling, especially if she is a short girl. My ex would always say how much she liked how tall I was - probably only thing going for me though lol!

Plus, whether you like it or not, women love competing against each other, whether it's their own looks, or material possessions. A tall man is more attractive, so they like to show you off.

What is a tall man though? Some say above average height. Sure that's the definition of it, but for this argument I think, if you are taller than your girlfriend, she will feel safe and want to show you off.
So? My dad can beat up your dad. - Jesus

Dude, I am 15 and im 5'1"
And I don't think I will be growing anytime soon. My friends make fun of my height (just for jokes) and all and yeah, life is miserable being short. I just hope I get a growth spurt soon :T
I feel your pain.

I'm 17 and 5'9" and I feel so short most places I go, at worst, I'm equal height or maybe an inch above my friends. I really hate that confidence blow from being around people taller than you, it sounds obvious and difficult, but you just need to get past your insecurities and be confident. Protip: don't talk about height if you don't want people to bring it up.

P.S. If I could just reach at least 6 foot I would be soooooooooooooooooooo happy :D (however I'm not sure of the likelihood of any further growth).

You're 17 and you don't think you'll grow anymore? Jeez.. -.- I hope you have your will sorted just in case, and insurance for your aching arthritis, your best days are behind you, old man.

No one's perfect. You sure as hell aren't, despite contrary claims.

I'm glad you're short and it makes you feel bad.
God Bless

Hahaha this is funny. TRUST ME, you still have plenty of time to grow. Just eat healthy, drink milk and sleep well. I grew from 5'4 to 5'9 when I was 15 and had another growth spurt at 20 (quite rare yes) to 5'11.

As for the OP, you just have to find the positives in what you are especially since there's nothing that can be done to change it. My father started pumping iron at the age of 15 and destroyed his growth pattern. He always told me though that being short meant being more agile and having a lower center of gravity for better balance (he was a football player in school). I'm sure he's had his share of bad experiences but as long as you find the positives in being what you are, you'll be just fine.

Oh and I suggest maybe breaking from this 'I would've been perfect had it not been for my height' line of thought. It only creates more tension in your mind and will strengthen your insecurities. Just think of yourself as a work-in-progress human being and ask yourself, what can I change and how can I develop further? Things you can't, just let it go and accept and focus on the things you do have control over.

For the europeans, he's 1m60. Just looked it up.
To OP, while that is fairly small compared to most people, some of the funniest most awesome guys I know are around your height. It's all about mentality I think.
Even though I'm 5'11~6 I'd still like to be a couple of centimeters bigger just because :p I think everyone wants to be that tiny bit bigger. Don't worry about it.

Also you keep growing untill around 18-20 years. You can also wear shoes with heels or something I dunno.

Oh and smaller guys look buff faster when they go to the gym :p

They are funny, because humor is the way to get girls. When they don't have the necessary height, they have to learn how to compensate.

Oh, and you actually can grow till like 22-23. I grew more when 21-23 than 16-21 (well, 4 cm vs 3, but still).

And there's also this guy Leonid Stadnyk that's 30 and still growing (supposedly, and that's due to brain damage).
