So I'm only 5'2 and most of the guys are shorter than me. Will they ever grow? I feel like I'm tall, even though I'm not. the girls who are 4'8 and shorter, look right with them. The real problem is that I'm built the same way as them. no curvs. HELP!

don't worry, dear, in a couple of years they will be much taller than you. a girl reaches puberty around 11 - 13 yrs old and then gives a big spurt of growth. but by 15 or 16, a girl basically stops and has reached her maximum growth.
a boy reaches his puberty about 13-15 so then they have a growth spurt but they continue to grow till they are almost 20. so just give it time and when you go back to school after summer vacation you will be surprised to see the boys taller than you.
so please don't worry your head about this as those boys will outgrow you.

You didn't say how old you are but by the sound of it you just grew a little quicker than everyone else. The other girls will catch up to you soon enough then you'll all have to wait around for the guys to get taller. ;)
I wouldn't worry much about it if I were you. It'll all work out in a couple of years at most.

Yes, guys have their growth spurts AFTER the girls. I guess someone felt like since we're going to be shorter for the rest of our lives we'd get a taste of being tall.

i don't think of i've got ever been improper for enormously, yet i'm 6'3"so i think that qualifies me to answer! look, the element is, adult men like it while women are shorter than they are. It makes them experience retaining, needed in case you will. We adult men tend to affiliate our very own self-worth by our egos and our self esteem feeds straight away from the attention we get from women. That being reported, i think of it might help in case you purely unfold out slightly and a minimum of enable him be responsive to which you exist. remember what I reported approximately interest? provide it to him in a fashion that makes you susceptible, ask for his help with some thing. some thing purely a guy can do, and if his mum and dad raised him appropriate he would be a sucker for a damsel in misery. i exchange right into a protection rigidity brat so i be responsive to what that's to circulate all of the time turning out to be up, its stressful yet you at the instant are not questioning of the advantages you have over people who're born and raised in one spot. we tend to be greater open minded than them, greater considerate of others, greater advantageous manners, and we glance to ward off drama while small city human beings thrive off of it, they have not something to do! in any case, merely shop your chin up and stop doubting your self, doubt them!

What grade are you in? ALL of the guys are shorter? Wow. I was 5'8 in jr. high and half of the guys were shorter. You know, being taller means your leggs are probably longer and theres a bennie. Dwell on the positive, gf!

i do have the same problem. i am 5'4 but thankfully some of the girls r even taller than me but i can understand how u must be felling becoz in my family i am the only one who is even taller than her parents. everybody says "oh you r so tall" but as i do u also ignore it becoz u can't help in everybodys growth n neither r u responsible for ur height so just ignore n see what positive things u have due to our height.

They will outgrow you in a few years. I don' tknow how old you are, but at the ages of 11-13 girls are taller than boys.

Girls are usually taller right around 12-13, I think. I remember the first girl I ever liked was taller than me, and it was right around that age. Don't worry about it.
