Getting insecure about being short, how should I cope with this feeling?

I'm about 5 feet 3 inches tall. Even though my height is slightly above the average female height, I am still often the shortest one in the group. My face looks relatively fine, so people consider me to be "cute" sometimes, but seldom consider me to be "attractive as a female", and I think it's because my height make me look like a teenager rather than an attractive women. And sometimes I feel people show more respect to tall people as well, for example, I think if I am taller, I will feel safer when travelling alone.

My friends said being "cute" is good enough, but I don't want to be "cute" or "adorable". I want to have long and thin arms and legsl, and look strong and cool. And I think people will respect me more, if I am taller so I can look more like an independent adult.

Now everyday I am mad about my height. Is this any way I can cope with this feeling better? Is 5 feet 3 really a very short height when it comes to the dating market?
