I am 4"9-10 and i just turned 17 it is just really horrible. when i wear heels and see people who are shorter than me i just get grossed out, just that's my initial reaction but I call myself out and feel bad about it and i've been thinking that's how people react to me . thing is, I don't like wearing heels so don't suggest that. and i used to be comfortable with my height but now its making me miserable. people call me 'midget' all the time and i know some tall girls dont like being tall but honestly i would just at least like to be average height.
oh, and don't say "men prefer women who are smaller" because even if that were true i don't really care what men want. i'd much rather be seen as intelligent and be listened to than "sexy". it creeps me out when people say that too cause it reminds me of pedophilia or something
i have read studies that say taller people are happier, more likely to be successful, seen as smarter/more attractive/better in general. from what i've seen it is true. i'm not saying i am not going to be any of those since most people think i'm pretty smart and i'm sure i'll be fine financially, but its just how others perceive me is what bothers me. ex) like people act all surprised when they 'find out' i'm smart and when i'm in a group i try to take leadership and throw out ideas but i'm not taken seriously--when someone else says the same things everyone will listen to them. this has happened soooooo many times i cannot even begin.
