Recently, I measured myself and found that I am now 5'6. I was 5'5 when i measured myself last year. I'm 23 years old and I have been diagnosed for very mild scoliosis.

I feel like my very mild scoliosis has been getting worse and if corrected I could get maybe 2 cm. Anyways, i'm just posting because i feel so much better finding out that I am 5'6 and not 5'5.

Anyone else go through something similar?

Any follow ups on this Eleyelevel? By the way, how did you come up with your username? Just curious.

Hello everyone!
So, I was informed about this site and thought I'd check it out. Interesting, I must admit. I am a 5'4 female, who was previously married to a man who claimed he was 5'8, but in actuality was approximately 5'3. Never called him out on it because I loved him and didn't want to make him feel bad about his insecurities. However, based of that one traumatic experience, I highly doubt I will EVER date a short man again, hence my username NEVERAGAIN. His height issues had an effect of many aspects of his life, which is why I call it "traumatic". I've only dated taller men (5'11 and up) since and even they have had height insecurities (believe it or not).
Anyhow, one of the main reasons I could never see myself with another short man again is because of them being so insecure, which is an EXTREME turn off to me. I understand everyone has their insecurities, but I feel that height is one of those issues that you cant do much about, so get the hell over it and focus on something else.

Welcome to the site. Pretty much disregarding everything I read here because I'm pretty sure that you'd never say "I will never date a man 5'11 and up again because they are all insecure". Even if all short men "got over" their insecurities (which height might not be one of), society will continue to go on with the "short for a guy = bad" narrative and it will be something he will have to deal with. You are clearly blaming short men for their issues and not blaming the root cause of it which is external, not internal.

Go and tell black women to get over their dark skin insecurities and to "get over it" since they can't do anything about their situation either or disabled people or homosexuals for that matter.

Co-Sign. You will never hear a woman say "never again will I date a guy taller than me because he was insecure" or behaved like yadda yadda.
