- Chronic:
- I'm 4'11.
I'm constantly being called a midget, or elf.
Not enjoying it.
Ha, yeah same here.
But if they weren't calling you that, they'd be calling you something else, I guess. Like before I was noticeably short, people used to call me ugly, constantly. I'm pretty sure that being short is waaaaaaaay better than being ugly.
No one is ever nasty about it though. Well except for the odd moron, but really there's nothing wrong with being short. It doesn't affect my life (except in
basketball, or when I'm reaching for things on high shelves), and it shouldn't affect yours. The only thing I dislike about my own height is that I'm not
just short, I'm
tiny and therefore I look short even when I'm next to short people. I'm self conscious about how it makes me look in that respect, but that's all.
