Is it normal i hate being short

I am a guy who is 5'7" (or 170 cms for Europeans). I know this is really short but I have no control over my height. I have a good body (I used to run a lot and play soccer so I am not really muscular but not skinny either, I am athletic at 160 pounds). I meet plenty of girls who think I am a nice guy and they think I am a friend not a boyfriend material. And I know they only think that because of my height, they think it is "cute". My parents are not very tall, my dad was 5'8" and my mom is 5'2". But both of my grandfathers were over 6 feet tall. I think I stopped growing after 13, lots of people in my family said I would have a late growth spurt but it never happened.

    I've never really considered 5'7" to be short. If you were 5'5" or under, then I'd say you are short.

            Most men brag but they end up having bay carrots. I hope you can deliver.

    I doubt very much that girls are turning you down because of your height. You're taller than the 'average' height of most females anyway. Although, it could be they are picking up on your low-confidence about your height and that's what's putting them off.
    Men your height can be very attractive. I've had several crushes on guys who were my own height or just slightly taller. Actually, I prefer men who are of a similar height to me. Some women like tall men, but not all women do. I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit.

    5'7 is short, but only by a couple inches. My ex of five years was 5'7 (I'm 5'5). At times I did wish he was taller as I do prefer very tall men, but I really didn't think about it except when I was wearing heels, and even then it didn't really bother me. At the risk of being crude, if you've got a big dick as you claim above, that's what really matters - feel blessed instead of worrying about your height! I would also advise building up your muscles - girls like a guy to be bigger than them in some sense so it really helps. My ex was deeeeenccchhhhh.
