I know people say you have to accept your height and be confident with it but I can't seem to feel good all the time about it, specially when I get looks or comments made at it.

I can't honestly say when it happens, but forever one, it comes to a point where you just don't care anymore and no one's words effect you. I reached that point a year ago.

I am still working on it myself, not so much with the world but with in my own family. I am with them for life so I have to get over it.

It takes work but you will reach a point where it doesn't bother you anymore. It may take meeting the right woman or landing the right job, or just waking up one day feeling great to be you.

I am still in the process myself but I must say, it has gotten easier. Since I am a commited man, I feel less pressure with women and lets be honest, that is the biggest struggle of being a shorter man.

I hope to get there myself one day. I think most women reach that point in their 30's or 40's but I am not too sure about us men haha. I have seen men have self esteem issues their whole life over height.

That has to be hard. I can't imagine dealing with teasing in my own family.

Not really. My biggest struggle has been getting things from high places, such as the top cabinet. 

haha I know right. Nothing is more embarassing than asking a taller man to reach something for you in the store.

I had to ask someone to get something down for me once. I thought nothing of it cause it was like 10 feet up on a shelf. My wife, on the other hand who is 5'4 has been known to climb shelves before she would ask for help. lmao

Show me the average every day man who has his woman carrying his bags like this.

Not saying she ever should, but clearly Mr. 5'8 and below is not getting this treatment.

Lying by omission is still a lie, but I can't help but think of all of the BBLs and Boob Jobs that get done where similar posts have women cheering each other that procedures they've done is no one's business.

Wouldn't the same apply here?
