How does it feel to be short...? Many researches have shown that tall people have more self confidence than the short people..they also say that short people are less attracted to their opposite sex...iam not criticizing short people because iam also short..I know how it feels to be short..when you are with your friends they make comments and make fun of your height...but we (short people) just take it as a joke but not really...we do get hurt..when people make fun of our height..iam 19 and my height is just 166cm..all the boys and girls of my age are above 170cm so it makes me feel like iam a kinder garden kid attending college..so far I've done all the stretching and exercises shown on the internet...but everything is just scam nothing is real..but I do hope that I'll grow taller and there's nothing wrong in having hope atleast..

Hi @kuttu_007 How U doing man ? :) You are 19 years old and the maximum height you will reach is perhaps 168 cm Many people think of height as a major issue for them just like ME. I am not saying that I come from a high family, exactly the opposite, my mother is 149 cm and my father is 170 cm tall like me. But I do not let my height affect me, and you should too. If your height makes you feel insecure, that is another problem. First thing you need to do is stop doing all of the stretching and exercises shown on the internet, and start working on your self confidence. For instance, start talking to random people on the street. I just want to let you know that all my friends are taller than me :P I hope your height will not affect you. :D

I know lots of short people and tall ones too. My husband is short compared to his friends (he is 5 feet 8 inches) My brother was 6 feet 6 inches. I'm just happy to be 5 feet 6 inches. If you are an adult you will probably be 166cm forever, so stop wishing and get used to being short and be proud of yourself!! One of my son's is your height at almost 40 and does not consider himself short. He feel comfortable in his skin and I hope you get there soon! Life is too short to worry about what you can't change.
