Being short is great! You can win limbo contests and never worry about hitting your head on things. I'm 5'2 (I don't think I'm short unless I'm standing right next to someone really tall.) Mike is 5'4, we are the perfect size together- we look just right in pictures!! If the worst thing someone can make fun of you for is being short, then think of it as a compliment- they can't think of anything else!
And guys, don't worry about being short. Most girls don't care (once they grow up!) I am crazy about my short man. (Besides he's tall to me)
