Is 4'8 too short?

Hi guys. So basically I'm a 4'8 1i year old girl. Obviously I'm tiny compared to everyone else and I'm really skinny. My friends make fun of me quite a bit as theyre ll around 5'6.
So basically, what I wanted to ask is if I'm too short? Like guys see me as a kid as im the average height of a 10 year old and people always confuse me for a year 7 in school. Is there anyway to change this and will things be weird when I go to uni next year?

Don't worry about your height. The only advantage of being taller is reaching something on the top shelf in a shop.

No, you aren't too short to date. I would date someone who is 4'8 (is that because I'm desperate? no, although I am, lol).
Haha it's fine trust me I'm 4'10 and guys love it
Yes it is. I am really short too (5'6) female.

Average is 5'4 or 5'5 but I still think 5'6 is really short.

Lol no i'm not. I think a good height for a female is 5'8. I really dislike my height and I have wished I was taller.
You're tiny.

So you say average is 5'4, but call 5'6 short? Am I missing something here?
I get it's short compared to some, but what does it make me if someone nearly a foot taller than me is 'short'lol
It's not too short. It depends on who the by is. You dating someone who is 6ft 4 would be difficult and impractical (think of trying to kiss him at the altar). For a guy who is 5ft 5 it's fine.
I think I'm a bit below armrest height
So my one benefit is to act as a elf to others 😂 great. That makes the hours of neck pain worth it!
