I am 5"0. My parents were born in Cuba and I'm 14. I am just short. I am still growing, but I'll stop growing under the average height most likely. So don't say I'll grow to 10 ft tall when I am still just 5 ft now.

14 Years old is the age where boys and girls usually get in to relationships. Sometimes even sex, although that may be against the law under 16. Well, it is very hard for me to get girls because I am short. There is one girl that I think likes me but she has a boyfriend. I can tell cause she hugs me and stuff. Maybe she just likes me, who knows? Anyways, people often make fun of my height. They say "Haha no one loves [insert my nickname in real life here]" or even lock me in the box because they think that's funny that I fit in one. What is worse is that I have a big butt, and that's horrible. Another thing is that I'm a little chubby or something. Which is worse. Short+skinny+nobigbutt+guy=cute and will get someone. Short+chubby+bigbugg=Hot face. ;looks down; he's short and his is big and I wouldn't like hugging that crap!

I'm quite depressed. I know I will struggle in life. If I do find someone for me, (I'm not sure that I want a woman more than 2 or 3 inches taller than me.) when I'm older I probably won't have grandchildren. Who knows? Because if I will struggle as hell in life, they will. And that's horrible to see them bullied.

Help.

Good grief, Charlie Brown!! Why don't you knock yourself out and make trouble for yourself?

I'm your height--have been this way since 12 and will be this way until I die (unless I shrink from osteoporosis). I liked to date guys who were a good kissing height. You would have been the perfect height for that for me. In fact, my boyfriend for six years was only slightly taller than I was. He was a darned good kisser too!

Your body will change as you age. You can control some of that, like your weight and how toned you are. The one most important thing you CAN control totally is your personality. If you are a good listener, empathetic, enjoy having fun, complimentary, etc. and all those other great things that make a person interesting and enjoyable to be with, you will have gfs and dates.

If you are truly being bullied by others, that's a different question. I have answers for that too.

People generally stop being so shallow after high school. At least with my experience. You want to find a girl who likes you for who you are and not because you look like everyone else. As the person above said, as long as you have a good personality you will find a nice lady. Hint don't be insecure because that is not hot, and when you get into a relationship insecurities can cause BIG problems. Just look at my posts and see what my insecure boyfriend does to me. I actually like guys that aren't pretty boys. The pretty boys are usually jerks. High Shool is hard, just focus on your studies and good things will come.

I'm 5ft too. otherkat is right, when you get to high school it will be a lot easier. I think that from what you are saying, you are a great guy, and girls like that too (it is cute) and it is always great to have a friend who's not a prepy jok/jerk...

when I was 13 (3 years ago) I had stopped growing already and at 5 ft tall I was taller that my boyfriend! Yeah he was 13 too... then we turned 14 and he was just slightly taller than me... then we broke up and last month I saw him again after 2 years! Guess what? He was a head taller than me!! Maybe even more... he is now 5'8'' tall... his mom told me one day when they woke up he had grown... and it happens. You are still 14 and males usually grow until their mid 20s.

If you want to do something about your height now you should talk to your parents and tell them to take you to your doctor... there he will give you some advise and derive you to a specialist that can will take an x-ray to see I think the density of your bones and if the edge (or something like that) of your bones has already closed completely (which means you will NOT grow anymore) but if they haven't he will give you some hormone shots... you will grow and if your face still looks childish then it will turn into that of a man.
Remember that this treatments are VERY VERY expensive!! But with insurance it should not be a problem... just tell your parents and you'll see.

Still if you can't afford a treatment like work on your fitness and eat healthy (one of the reasons my doc says I didn't grow much is because I do NOT eat veggies - geeez!) Oh and eat lots of meat, don't eat lentils/rice/noodles and flourish foods for dinner, for breakfast always some kind of meat, you will need their protein, and if you are a vegetarian, there are many other kinds of replacements for meat protein. And don't forget milk any kind of milk helps... and do some stretching too. Try to be consistent...
good luck (which I didn't have!)
