Damn in 15, almost 16 and 5,4. I hate being short so much. All of my friends are like a fucking foot taller than me and its starting to really piss me off. Do you kids think that im going to be a freak and be this small for my wholelife or maybe im a late bloomer or something? Does anyone else have this problem because im like one of the smallest kids in my grade and its really starting to get to me.

Seriously wtf?
 
Ima junior and theres a girl in my class thats like 5' 2" . neways your prolly jus a late bloomer my dad was really small untill his freshmen year of college he grew like 7 inches
 
you can date gymnasts now without towering over them

they are usually short, and usually hot

 
dont worry about it. my friend is in grade 12 and is like 5'1", i wouldnt call him very developed either. nobody even really realizes hes short anymore, now that everyone is used to seeing him. i should also mention that he has like a second degree black belt in karate.
 
I was relatively small until i was 15. Im now 5'10'', which is somewhat OK...

but dont worry boys grow up until they're 20 or so i think
 
id kill to be 5'10".

im 18 and only 5'6". ive been this height since like 8th grade. maybe ill grow a little more, but i really doubt it. and i kinda hope not cuz i just bought custom footbeds thinking im deff done growing...
 
dude, you're 15. you'll grow.

for now use it to your advantage for skiing...short people are more agile, you can spin faster and get grabs easier if you don't have disproportionately long legs like me.
 
if you got a big dick then who care (no homo) but if you don't (not to be negative or anything) then id probable go shoot myself
 
I'm only 5'8 going on 18, im pumped though i dont wanna grow an inch over 5'10 i just like this height getting baggy clothes is so much easier
 
I'm exactly the same as you I'm like 5'4 and 15 turning 16 in march
thing is, my parents are like 5'2 and I'm taller than both of them already so unless I get genes from my uncle (which I'm hoping) I'm done growing

I'm wishing for around 5'7, 8 I guess? not too tall but just tall enough so I don't have to get 160-ish skis haha

but ya all my friends are so tall it sometimes can get a little annoying
 
not sure about skiing, but I spent a lot of time with the pro wakeboard tour past few summers, all those guys are short as fuck, cept for like eric ruck and kieth lyman. small = easier arobatics = good for skiing, embrace it man! sometimes I wish I wasn't six feet
 
i was like 5'3" ish til i was 16, then i started working out a little adn grew like 3 inches in the summer, and now at 18 im about 5'10" i would like to be 6' at most, but not more, but 5 10 in nice casue its easy as someone else said to find your length in skis, and baggy clothes, and for me, i dont need longer golf clubs.
but mabye try wrking out a bit, it helps some people grow, but as long as your comfortable with your height it dosent matter to anybody else.
 
I've been 5'9 since 7th or 8th grade, haven't grown since. And I'm 19 and a freshman in college now. Saved me hella money though.
 
fuck all you kids im 6'2" and i hate it being a tall ass mother fucker. short kids have the best style you guys take your height for granted. i mean sure, anything out of the world of skiing is waay better if your tall but if you ski your stlye is wack, and skiing is the only thing thats important. so what if i can reach the top shelf for the ramen noodles i want dumont steeze dammit!
 
same. but i know so many chicks that are 5'-5'2 its like the average for girls. i even know a chick thats four eleven. shes sexxxxy as fuck tho!
 
i have the opposite problem im a gigantor. almost 6 4. everyone is smaller than me. everything is to small for me. and i hurt and break everyone and everything all the time
 
i'm on 170's and i'm five feet tallll.

yeah i know its different cause i'm a female and whatnot but still. the whole 'wow your short' every single day from the same people i see everyday just gets really old.
 
my dad grew 8 inches after highschool and he is 5 11 now.

Look at your parents, you will probably end up about as tall as them. See if they were late bloomers.

Even as a girl, I grew an inch and a half after highschool.

There are things that can stunt your growth though. If neither of your parents were late bloomers and both are taller, go see a nutritionist. My cousin was having the same problem, turned out that he was just allergic enough to peanuts that it was causing him to be sick a lot but he never had the rashes or anything to go along with it.

 
dude im fuckin 6'4 and 180 and my parents bitch about how skiing is for short people!!!

i want some of your shortness!!!!

ill trade you a level 3 short card for my level 23 tall and lanky card!!!
 
Just look at the correlations between being tall and success. How many short presidents have their been in modern times? 0.

5'6 people will always make me laugh. Yea Candide, you might be throw down on the hill, but you are fucking munchin at City Market.
 
6-2....feel like its the perfect height. son your 15, quit bitchen, date a midget til you grow, you have a few more years
 
don't worry about it man. your probably steezy as fuck when you ski. try being steezy at 6' 2", its much harder. you can also have a WAAAY easier time looking jacked, so i suggest going to the gym and doing just that. And the third stereotype is that girls like taller guys which is not true at all, one of my friends is 5' 6" and is my master wingman. You probably havent stopped growing anyways you' have like 2 more years.
 
a lot of girls simply are not attracted to short guys. then again, theres girls who are, but just not as many.

style-wise it does help. I'm a lanky motherfucker, basically tall people have the same coordination system as normal or short people, but extra length throws you off and makes you ungraceful. well thats my theory, cause I felt a lot more agile before I went through a growth spurt. I thought it was just puberty but it was years ago.
 
Yo man im the same age and height as you... what year in high school are you and yes it does suck especially when you play football
 
im like 5'1 and im on 170s too.

i know exactly how you feel. i love it when people think they are being really clever by saying some smartass short joke but youve heard it like a million times.

but all in all, i like being short. its fun.
 
when i was 16 i was 5'2". My drivers liscence says im 5' 3" still cause i gave myself an inch. between 16 and 18 i grew 6 inches then freshman year of college i grew another inch and tomorrow ill be 21 and im pretty sure im at my adult height of 5' 9"
 
just learn to work with it. who knows it could benefit you actually. (agreeing with the dumont statement)

 
yeah now you are an Asian giant!

But for real i am 5'4 and 23 now. I dont wish i was taller i am totally fine with who i am.

 
But you're a girl. Totally different than being short and being a dude. I have had girls not date me or stop dating me strictly because I wasn't tall enough for them.
 
girls arent as attracted to appearance as you may think. The main things a woman is attracted to is: Health, Social Intuition, Humor, then Status and Wealth (doesnt mean you have to drive a nice car and be super rich, you just have to have that appearance). We just think women are attracted to appearance mainly because thats what us shallow hals are mainly attracted to. If your using "I'm too short" as an excuse i suggest you drop it, cause once you do you will have no more excuses but your approach was off.
