    If you're short you just have to own it. I've never heard of a man turning a woman down because she was too short much less people refusing to be friends with someone due to their height. And a bonus is that you must be a master at hide and seek.

    It is certainly much easier in Western culture, to be a short woman than it is to be a short man. Your bones shouldn't have completely closed by now. Growing doesn't end until the early twenties. There are stretching exercises you could do. (They've certainly helped me a lot). Cutting out foods that produce phytic acid. Phytates prevent proper nutrient absorption. (This has also helped me a lot).

        You're welcome. I don't think I had any growth until I started this regime. Now, most of my clothes don't fit and I am almost as tall as my refrigerator. :)

            I think I started when I was 18. I'm 19 now.

            You need to get enough sleep. A teenager needs about 12 hours.
            When a person sleeps, their growth hormones become activated causing you to grow. However, when you wake up, the gravity causes the gaps to close. In the morning, I get up and stretch. Stretching allows you to keep the inches you gained during sleep. You are also supposed to exercise because it keeps the muscles from being rigid. I don't exercise often. My muscles have always been rather loose. You need to eat a healthy diet. I eat organic foods, but you can probably do it without eating organics. Try not to eat foods that are high in Phytic acid.

              Loool that explains MY problem!
              I stand exactly at 5 feet, and haven't grown in 6 years, since I graduated elementary school! My lack of sleep is most likely what contributes to my shortness... I only get 2-3 hours of sleep per day; I think I have insomnia or something. ):

    There is nothing wrong with being shorter, it's awesome, you can do anything. Imagine all the sneaky things you can do. A big plus for stealth, witch is very important to an assassin.

    Unless you have a chipmunk voice I wouldn't worry about it.

    Yeah, it's normal. I know a bunch of people who are even shorter than you (4'3, 4'4)
