I feel that I can't accept my height?

Question

How could my parents didn't make sure that I always ate good food and slept sufficiently? Or they expected me to plan everything as a child/teenager? But they made sure that I always woke up at 6AM to go to school? Now if I am stupid, I can be smart. Now I am short, I can't get any taller? Even if one day I become a millionaire, I still can't buy an inch of height. I really can't take this. I had the potential to be tall. :(

For what it's worth, I don't give a crap about a guys's height. I'm 5'3 and dated a guy who was shorter than me. He was handsome, athletic, funny, inteligent and made me feel really good about myself too. I'm not going to tell you that any girl will go for a shorter guy, many of them won't and you can't change that. But many will, because height isn't a crucial factor when it comes to attraction. You're short? that's fine, as long as you focus on your other attributes and somehow find a way to learn to accept that this is the way you are and there's no way of changing it. There are plenty of other men like you and, believe it or not, there are girls out there who actually prefer a shorter guy than them.
On a side note, there's nothing your parents or anyone else could do about your height, that's in your genes. I hope you find a way to overcome this insecurity. Short guys can be extremely hot.

I'm sure height is mostly to do with genetics. I think instead of blaming your parenta and feeling sorry for yourself, you need to accept the person that you are. What is so bad about being short? Please dont tell me that it makes you unattractive - I've know some short guys who are really attractive because they had confidence, good looking, and had great personalities. I have alsi known pwople who didn't study at school and it is very difficult to go back and learn what you missed and it really limits their career options. So I think instead you should thank your parents for caring about you enough to support your schooling

A decent career will bring you more happiness then being tall, or do you thing tall guys have a great life working at McDonalds? You probably never had the potention to be tall. Google "recessive genes".

Aww don't be so harsh on yourself. If you're a good person that's all that should matter. You are who you're and you're special don't let anyone tell you different. You're just unique and that's a good thing everyone has something unique about them. If we were all the same this world would be boring. <3 Don't be sad.

It's mostly predetermined through genetics, although I know a certain idiot who will trawl google and select the information that backs up his argument that one's height is more heavily influenced through environmental factors than genetics.

shadowlegend · Answer

No, your height is determined by genetics when you are concieved, your parents have no influence on your height.

basically i believe you're 6' tall and you're making fun of us by claiming you're 5'6"

Are you good looking? If not, do you think just being tall, but not good-looking makes you automatically attractive?
