Are You Happy with Your Height?
« on: March 15, 2017, 01:57:07 pm »
I have heard of and read about people who weren't or aren't satisfied with their heights. Short people wish they were taller, and tall people hate being tall. I used to think I was huge because I was taller than all of my classmates in elementary and middle school. I guess nobody likes all of his or her genes.

I am ok with my height. Yeah a  lot of people are taller then me,  but i learned a long time ago that there a  lot of people shorter then me. so if i can help someone shorter then i can also ask for help from those who are taller. One of my main peeves is in the grocery store and i need something off the top shelf. But you know there are so many others who are willing to help. so with Please can you, i always get what i am after.

I'm considered short at 5'.  I've always been okay with it.  There are times I wish I were a bit taller, sitting on some couches can be uncomfortable, same for some chairs, my feet don't reach the ground.  Now that I've gotten older it seems any weight gain shows up on me more than on some of my taller friends but overall, it is what it is and I'm okay with it.    :)  Not much I can do about it.

I want to be taller not wider. I do want to gain a couple of inches but I am O.K. with my height. I am learning to live with it. It can be a disadvantage being short at the grocery stores when they place objects really high up on the shelves.   :-\

I have always been average height, i was 5'5 but as i get older i am shrinking, i'm down to 5'3, so I like the height i am., not to tall and not to short.

I use to be 5'6.5" for a long time. Now that I am older I have shrunk over the years and I am now 5'4.5". I am 2 inches shorter and I am ok with it. Just have to stretch farther to get in my cabinets now.

I am happy with my height. Being 5'9' makes it easy to reach things.

I am 5'5 and quite happy with my height. Maybe I would like to be 5'6-5'7 like my mother but I don't mind that much.  :)

I'm happy with my height. I'm about 5' 4". Since I'm a female, it seems like a good height to be. 

Most men are taller than I am and that makes them feel good. I consider that a win, win.
