I am 13 years old and 4 foot 11. Its realy annoying because im so tiny! It seems like i havnt been growing!! Even though i know i realy am growing because every says 'how much i have grown'! My docter says that i am fine. But i dont want to look like this 8 year old with boobs forever!! It also bothers me when people say how young i look!!
Do i look young to you?? -My pic is in my profile page thing. I am on the right.
Should I worry?? Is anyone else the same as me??

You look fine for your age to me.
Having said that, don't rely on what I or anyone else thinks...looks aren't everything and even those who are physically "perfect" (which is very subjective) need to have more than that to back it up.
Worry about becoming a person of substance with a good education who treats other people as well as she would like to be treated. Be kind, generous and compassionate. Be independant and strong. Have opinions, but respect those of others as well. Be your own unique, special, wonderful self and don't take what anybody else says at face value. Question everything and always search for your own truth.

don't worry, its a bit of a problem in the first half of your life, but it will really rock in the second half! you are just going through the "i want to hurry up & grow" stage of early adulthood. you can always dress a little classier, this usually makes you look older because most people dress that way only when they've gotten older. speaking correctly & avoiding slang also make you seem more evolved. if it helps, go out with a guy that really likes young -looking women. that way, you'll be with someone who is attracted to the real you. and enjoy your looks while you still have them. remember, its about the quality of the experience. c-ya!

Just a little, but I wouldn't worry. Some people don't grow as fast as others and to tell u the truth I wish I was 4ft 11 cause all my boyfriends are shorter than me and I'm 13 too.

Oh sweety, dont worry.
I didnt grow until i was like 16 and i tower above most men. I was only 5 ft tall when i was your age. I am now 19 and 5 ft 10 inches.

no i think that you actually look your age. dont worry one bit. people are all different and being shorter is sometimes better. im not so sure what yet seeings how im only 5 foot and im 17. its not all that bad. you dont look like a mountain and you can have the option to wear heels if you want to be taller. it has its upsides. once youve accepted your height its all good. dont worry what other people have to say. it took me awhile to realize this but its alright once you realize just that.

No you look good to me. There are plenty of girls your size. I've seen some even smaller than you in high school. It just takes a little longer for some people to grow. Just give it some more time.

No, don't worry. Females naturally grow slower than males. I think at about age 15 or 16, females will start growing faster.

You do look young and probably because you are young. The girl beside you looks wayyyy younger.
I am young, I'm 26 and people tell me I look 16. I know how you feel. It can be annoying.

I'm 20. (Almost)
I'm 5'0"
I pass for "11 and under" at amusement parks and get in for free.
When you're older, you'll be itchin' to look younger. Savor it. Many women spend THOUSANDS of dollars to look younger. You have it naturally. You'll be thanking your lucky stars when you're a bit older.
