I’m 37, bald, 5’5 and don’t make a lot of money. Luckily I’m divorced but have no kids and don’t owe anything to my ex. This 27 yo girl with no kids, owns a business making over a million a year, and goes to church (I’m not religious but i know some of you like that quality) wants to marry me after the second date. She won’t stop texting me. Calls me handsome and hot.

Now, I usually don’t go for someone this young, but she initiated and I just gave it a shot.

Personally I’m not ready to marry anyone on the second date and I think it’s ridiculous, and I can’t move that fast. Especially after my marriage. But I’m just writing this to show that on paper, Reddit would tell me it’s over and call me grandpa or something. But reality is, if you’re a good person and have self worth, and are a respectful gentleman, you can find someone.

She is also slightly taller than me. So take that for what it’s worth.

I’m a short mom. 5’2”. My ex, my son’s dad is super short too. Maybe 5’3”-5’4”. My son is done growing at 16 and is around 5’4”. We saw an xray for an issue and it said his plates have closed. He’s a great kid. Easy going, attractive, smart, funny, muscular. The whole package. I asked him if it bothered him and he said it doesn’t. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t. But I’m not 100 percent sure. I came on here just to check out all you awesome people. And I’m mostly reading about thriving people living great lives. Being a short woman is no big deal. And I’ve always liked short men, obviously I married one even though we later divorced. I guess I’m not really asking anything. I feel like I shouldn’t even worry, but part of me does. There’s so much heightism in our country. It’s constant. I don’t ever want him to be negatively affected by it. Again, he seems super confident. He’s gonna be fine, right?

I was just told from someone that anyone who is attracted to me should be jailed for pedophilia… I’m 21 but admittedly I get mistaken for 12. So I cant date anyone over 18 because theyre supposedly attracted to underaged people, and I’m damn sure not attracted to underaged people. So I guess I’m supposed to be single forever cause I’m short🤷🏽‍♀️

I was in the supermarket the other day, and this girl probably in her mid-20s asked me if I could help her reach something from the upper part of the aisles. For context, I'm 5'7, and I guess she was around 5'0-5'2. For a moment, I felt how tall people must feel on a daily basis

Hi everyone,
I’m a 30 year old 5’1 petite woman.

I’ve never really felt insecure about my height until recently.

Out of no where, it all just hit me… people saying “she’s cute but not striking”… clothes never fitting properly in any store… feeling uncomfortable in fancy places full of tall people as if everyone’s looking over my head…. Feeling like people can bully or belittle me because of my stature … jokes from family members saying I should model for baby gap… comments on how I get any respect from my students as a high school teacher. It all didn’t sting until recently.

Anyway, I was thinking to gather reasons why being short is beneficial. Things I can do and wear that non short people can’t. Looking for a positive spin on it all :)

Went to the doc and was asked what my height was. Said 5'5. Measured me and said I was 5'4.96. I've been lying my entire liife... gah damn it 🤣

I've been thinking of getting new insoles and thought that might as well get a few inches of height while at it. My biggest problem is the ball of my foot hurting at around 10k steps mark, since my shoes don't offer enough cushioning.

Has anyone here found insoles that actually help with pain, but also increase height? I've heard that many insoles specifically made for giving extra height aren't very comfortable.

I googled it but its saying 165 cm.

Well mine is same as his height .

My dad is 5 11 and my mom is 5 6 everyone else is some much taller me and iam worried I will be short for ever

I’m 19F 5’1 (used to be 5’0 but got a random growth spurt this year?) and have 17-19% S shaped scoliosis. (lumbar and cervical) and have pretty bad lumbar lordosis but I’m working on it slowly. I grew up pretty poor and didn’t get enough nutrients. My mother also has scoliosis and should’ve been 5’4 but compressed to 5’2 because of severity. My father is 5’10-5’11.

Is there any hope for me?

I’m male 17 years old. So i thought my height was 173cm but it is around 171.5 - 172cm which is around 5' 7.5’’. i wanna know if I can call myself 5’ 8’’ or just be honest as I’m worried others who are my height could tell the difference and make fun of me. I measured at 8 pm.

It might be a weird question but I am really curious, I don’t know how to feel, it really affects me that I am 6’0. I am this height since 13 and back then everyone treated me as I was 6’4 and when I grew up I thought I was 6’1 or 6’2 because my height have always been one of the main topic in my appearance, also everyone were telling me that I didn’t need any more inches and that I will grow exactly 6’4 or more but currently I measured and I am just 6’0 tall and in irl I felt really tall because I thought I was 6’1 or more(because it turned out that everyone were lying about their height around me and they always added inches to their height) and on the internet 6’0 considered already average and for girls it might consider short or not enough, all the girls describe ideal male 6’1 minimum or even more. So I really don’t know, I am 6’0 but still confused and insecure about my height so what’s your thoughts? can a girl like me?
