I'm 5'7, I'm pretty sure all that bullying and trauma I got during childhood stunted my growth. Robbed of my potential.

[WhenTheyCry]

I'm very insecure about my height.

Are you a guy or a girl?

male, pretty sure height for women doesn't matter. If you're short as a women people will call you cute, if you're tall thirsty men will call you mommy and want you to dominate them

Body height isn't very important except you intended to become a basketball player. I wouldn't be too worried about it.

If you're short you get picked on more. Taller people are also more likely to get hired and promoted.

The cope and solution? Train in martial arts.

Is this really true? My dad is 5'3" and has never had any issues finding jobs, and I don't recall him getting picked on after he became an adult.

What a first world problem. Because you have these preconceived notions in your head that cause you to be insecure = they will become real via your behavior and you will be even more insecure. Most likely you are just using height as an excuse, picking something which you cannot change because you can use it to remain helpless instead of facing your true flaws because its painful. Something everyone who has not detached from their ego does.
Also you are not even short. You are the world average.

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

I think 5'7 is a decent height. I see dudes in public with your height or shorter with attractive wives or girlfriends.
Now if you are ugly like me, then you are fucked.
