You have 14 years of growing still to go. I believe it was Kareem Abdul-Jabbar who was short until after he left high school and join the military. In less than a year, he had to be released because he had grown beyond their upper limit in height. You will be what you will be, whatever the height. It is not your height which makes you successful but your brain and the choices you make in life.

Do remember, all of your growing takes place at night, when you're sleeping, not out partying, or anything else. It is also the time when the immune system regenerates, your muscles re-oxidize, and your brain sorts and stores everything you learned during the day. You still need ten hours of sleep a night. If want to be shorter, less healthy in your adult years, and remember less of what you have learned just stay up late as a habit. Day time naps don't count, as the only thing that happens is the muscle re-oxidize. The brain has to believe it is night, through the lack of any light, for the other functions to engage.

National average is 5 foot 8 inches, most women like tall men.

5'10' is not short. There are plenty of girls who are shorter than that, so you are OK! At 16, you will probably continue to grow a little until 18.
