How to deal with the anxiety caused by my small height?

[YourFutureEx]

I'm not really short but I'm upset because I'm not equal/taller than my dad. Every friend of mine is taller than his father. (Here 'every' consists of 75+ people)
I'm the only one who is not taller than his father. :(

My friends make fun of me and even my mom says that you're short and make sympathetic face.

I used to be 5'8.5" when I was 12 but I didn't grow that much in my teens :/
Now, I'm 5'10" and my dad is 5'11".

Is there any way to increase my height just one inch? Or how do I deal with it?

Small? -Short* (I can't even type properly in tension >.<)

Yeah I'm average but the issue is, I'm short as compared to my family members.

Dude... you are 5'10 and complaining... It's average height. If you walk around in a city there will be plenty of people taller than you and plenty of people shorter than you.

A good way to deal with that issue is realizing how blessed you are to even have legs in the first place. My buddy growing up was fucking 5'0 tall lol

[YourFutureEx]

Thanks.

Well actually this is sad story but after reading that 'lol' at the end, I'm confused if I should be happy or sad.

[thealphamaleishere]

He is a little bitch so now I laugh at him

[YourFutureEx]

Oh I see :)

[irishhurler]

im kinda the same i have tall friends around 6 foot to 6"6 and im 5 "10 but one of my cousins say im taller than him when he was my age he's 6"3 now

[YourFutureEx]

I can feel it.

[irishhurler]

i want to be 6 foot to 6"3

[YourFutureEx]

Do you have any hope?

[irishhurler]

im still 17

[irishhurler]

iv tall grandparents and my parents are tall enough

[YourFutureEx]

My wishes are with you dude :)))

[BaileyisDarcy]

5'11 is not short. The tallest person I've ever met was maybe 6'10 but the closest to that is maybe 6'1 (my dad)

[Slavanna]

Oh, don't worry. You're still tall by Indian standards.

[YourFutureEx]

Hmm that's the only compensating thing.

Thanks :)

[Watermelonoma]

ugh. The most annoying thing is to see guys who are at the national average for height complain about being too short. I'm 5'5 buddy. That is real shortness.

[YourFutureEx]

Haha sorry to hear that bro. by the way the national average is 5'6-7" here.

Stretching your back helps but you would have to so it everyday.

[YourFutureEx]

Does it really 'helps' o_O?

[AshleyMD]

It does, but if you skip a day all your results will disappear.

[Takada]

Fussing over a one inch height difference is silly.

[YourFutureEx]

I know but only I can understand what circumstances I'm facing :/

[BelleGirl21]

You're not even short cutie! You're a great height. Just tell your mom "I'm not short, I'm perfect!"

[YourFutureEx]

Yeah I use to tell that, then she shuts up. But I have to tell her many times.
Anyway, thanks :))

PS: How old that pic is o_O?

[BelleGirl21]

Sorry I don't have a better solution to your problrm :/

I took that picture this morning.

[YourFutureEx]

This morning O_O?
Did you change anything? You are now looking even more younger @_@

[BelleGirl21]

I didn't change anything, just a different angle. I did filter it because the light was too bright. But thank you! 😶

[YourFutureEx]

I thought this is your old pic. 😵😮
You should write something about your lifestyle 😊

[BelleGirl21]

I'm too shy for that and I wouldn't want to sound preachy either ;)

[HollywoodGlam]

5'10 is average. Plus you're only 1 inch shorter than your dad, it's not a big difference.
There is no need to feel bad. Be happy! :)

[YourFutureEx]

Hmm... Thanks :)

[Anonymous]

you're not even that short.. u might even grow a bit since ur only 20 but dont dwell on it.. its really not that big of a deal.

[YourFutureEx]

Thanks :)

[StickStickity13]

I was expecting a guy to be 5"2, your height is average. Don't worry.

[YourFutureEx]

Ohh I see thanks :)

[Emmac89]

You are not that short

[YourFutureEx]

But still shorter than my dad :/

[Emmac89]

So? I mean who cares? 5' 10" is a great height considering that most girls are around 5' 5". its s really good height. Most girls are attracted to guys within 4-5 inches of their height.

[YourFutureEx]

I don't care about the girls in that matter, tbh. It's kind of personal satisfaction. I have a lot of things in my life than just attracting girls.

[JamielovesKU]

Wear mens shoes with a bit of a heel...

[YourFutureEx]

Hmm. I wanted to increase my own (body) height.

[JamielovesKU]

only time can determine that. I heard there's a surgery where they can make you taller. But I bet its mad expensive and it would be extremely painful. Just eat your fruits and veggies! They make you grow big and strong lol!

[godislovee]

There is nothing you can do about it.

[_Zara_]

5'9 - 5'10 is average for a guy, 1 inch isn't much

[KiaTate]

Nothing's wrong with your height.

[Anonymous]

You are average... relax

[YourFutureEx]

Yeah but I'm short in my family :/
