its my height and well im starting to become self conscious of it. im 16 yrs old and am a girl. well i think i look childish because of it. is it incredibly small? do lads prefer girsl who are taller?


tbh it doesnt really matter, i'd go as far as to say that the majority of guys prefer shorter girls (makes us look taller:biggrin: ). What can somtimes be a turn off is tall girls, ie. over 5'9''. Dont worry, short is good.

I'm 18 & 5"3. Although sometimes my mates wind me up about being small, they call me 'lil angel' & im quite proud of it, hehe. One of my best mate says i have an 'innocence' about me, i have blonde hair, blue eyes & freckles so apparently im cute, or so she claims.
Be proud of your height, u cant change it, its who you are & one of the things that makes you unique! Its your personality that counts... if you act more maturely then hopefully people will realise that you are older & respect you more for it. Don't make a big deal of it, otherwise people are more likely to go on & on about it. Its not that important a factor, hopefully you have a big personality to make up for the petite height.
