I myself am pretty similar to yourself. I'm 22 and around the same weight but the diffrence is I eat A LOT but cant seem to maneage to keep on the weight. I have come to realize that i have a very high metabolism. Maybe that is the case with you. You burn the food you eat quickly. First things first...don't push yourself to eat even if your feeling full. It's important that you stay healthy and not damage your body. I've been trying to drink some weight gaining shakes like boost and ensure. Maybe drink one with a meal. See if that helps any. I myself am hesitant to try any pills but if you do make sure they are FDA approved!!! Good luck!

Unless your bones are really sticking out and your face is skeletal then I think you are a good weight for your height and age. I am 5'3" and 115 now at 40 but at 22 I was 103lbs. A human stomach can't hold any more food than the size of your fist without stretching beyond normal. That is why the obese need to have that thing sewn shut. You are in just the right range. If you feel that maybe you aren't getting enough nutrients then try 5-6 small healthy meals (no more than the size of your fist) throughout the day rather than 3 huge ones. North America is notorious for over feeding itself bad food.

Try to work out atleast every alternate day. Start with cardio and gradually move over to weights. That way you will gain muscle (which is heavier than fat) and not appear big (when you put on weight). You will also be much healthier and will be able to eat more. Just my 2 cents.

You are perfect. Don't change anything. You are like the ideal size and weight and I have many guy friends that would agree.

I think that unless you are having health issues you shouldn't be worried... It does sound like you are little, but you sound cute. Don't worry, you're still yound and it will all catch up as you get older.

Try drinking Boost or Ensure. You can also ask your doctor what you should do.
