Last week, I gave you guys a list of 10 of the worst things about being short. But even though all of those things are super annoying to deal with, the truth is, I actually love being short. Once I got over the fact that I would never grow past 5’0 tall, I learned to embrace and accept my height. And I’m totally happy with being petite!
So, are there good things about being the shortest girl in every class? Of course there are! I’ve put together a list of the 10 best things about being short… and honestly, I wouldn’t have my body be any other way.
You can shop in the kids section for clothes, which is MUCH cheaper.
Yeah, people’s bodies are smushed in your face, but it’s also waaaay easier to squeeze through crowds when you’re tiny, so, worth it.
Wait, people have trouble finding leg room on buses and airplanes and trains? Never had that issue. #sorrynotsorry
Because of my height, people always assume I’m super innocent, so I can basically get away with anything. *evil laugh*
Also, I’ll always look younger than I am. That may be annoying now, but it won’t be when I’m 40.
I can fall asleep on any couch anywhere and be comfortable because I’ll always fit.
I generally don’t have to worry about hitting my head on anything, which is nice.
Skirts and dresses are never too short on me. And I can always get them hemmed if I need to. Score one for the short girl.
Short dudes automatically love me and it’s obviously super easy to date them. We make for a pretty adorable couple.
Oh, and if I ever want to be taller? All I need to do is put on a pair of good heels. Werk.
Are you short also? Which of these things do you agree with the most? What did I miss? What’s your favorite thing about being short? Tell me in the comments!

Meh. The kids clothes are so lame and childish though…
I am 18 and (almost) 5’0, and just had to say SO TRUE!!!
Ugh! Guys do NOT have to be taller than you in order for you to have a successful and happy relationship. My boyfriend was 4 inches shorter than me when we first started dating. Now it’s 14 months later and he’s my height. I still love him!

The whole we get through easier is a lie! I’ve actually sat in front of two people trying to be polite saying excuse me(I also yelled move twice) and I had to poke them for them to see me or even realize I was there! No headphone or music was involved! I’ve also been stepped on…literally
I’m 14 and 4ft 11, I hate being small but this has actually made me feel alot better! If I’m ever having and argument with my boyfriend all I do is flash the puppy dog eyes and its all good *muh haha*. Unfortunatly I can never find clothes that fit; so far there isn’t a shop that offers clothes to fit a short, 32DD girl with a little waist, no clue why…;).
This is so true, almost all guys are taller than me so my options are increased :3
I’m very short but I can not automatically fit into kids cloths. Just because you’re short doe not make you “tiny” (I am quiet the opposite of tiny)
My favorite thing is that I’m FANTASTIC at Hide and Seek. I’ll be hinding in the most random places like a laundy basket, bathroom cabinets, in bushes, etc…
“Wait, people have trouble finding leg room on buses and airplanes and trains? Never had that issue.”
Unfortunately, when I sit on buses/trains/airplanes, only half my head touches the cushion attached to the top of the seat. The other half has nothing supporting it, and it simply feels awkward. But I have loads and loads of leg room
