don't feel bad, I'm 32 and I'm 4' 10 1/2". You got me beat. ;-) I use to feel the same way in school but you will quickly get over it. Since my early 20's I have loved the fact that I'm small. Being called "cute" is a lot better than being called an "amazon" Don't sweat it, you'll soon realize there are a lot of men (and I mean a lot) who find short women very attractive.
The only time it bothers me anymore is when I'm trying to reach something on the top shelf. At which point I roll my eyes and grab a kitchen chair. Then it's no longer a problem.

Oh shut up and go read you Bible. God loves you and you can be saved. Who care about what everybody else is doing or what they say. Are you just another dumb idiot how wants to be considered cool with all the other dumb idiots? Then you can be with the whatever crowd, or be noticed. Then they can talk about you behind your back, except, this time they are supposedly your friends. You don't need anybody else. Quit being so weak and clingy to fads that fade. You are 13. What the heck do you want a boy friend for. Don't get me wrong, I am glad you are not some kind of gay freak, but really. What is a boyfriend going to do for you right now other than slow you down. You are not even sexualy developed yet, and certainly not mentally developed yet. That is not an insult, it is just true. You are 13. You need to say screw you to the idiots and do your own thing. Work to make something of yourself that the typical hollywood ****. Is every woman in America supposed to be a Paris Hilton or a Birtney Spears? Sadly, our hyper-sexual society has gotten to think so. Look. Turn off your T.V, stop caring about what the morrons at school think, and listen to me. Read a King James Bible. Go to an Independent Baptist Church. If you can't find one, go to a Bible Church. DO IT. I know what I am telling you. Don't spend your life chasing fads, cause you'll get nothing. Just trouble. Do your homework or you'll wind up a morron. And get you but in church and read the Bible. Be happy you are who you are. God made you, and he loves all of us the same. But no one goes to heaven just because they believe that they, in there own mind, are a good person. I don't see you complaining about your health. Do you have any idea how many people would love to be an elf or an oompa loompa than sick and in pain or disabled? Hear you are, healthly, have a home and plenty of food, and you are ungreatful. All you want is what someone else has. You think you have to be or be like the others. There is something different about all of us. Your short, so what. Some people are really tall. Do you have to be just average to feel comfort in yourself? Ahh, who cares? What does it really matter at the end of the day as long as you did what you are supposed to do? Most people don't go to heaven. Do you want to fallow them too? We live in such materialistic, synthetic, phoney times. What does any of that stuff matter at the end of the day?

don't worry i was one of the shortest people in my class all the way through school and my best advise it learn to love those names you will never out live them. I'm only 5'1 and i'm 21 years old my sister is 18 and is 4'11... You'll be asked out when your time comes just enjoy jr high it won't last to long. Just to let you know even now my boyfriend calls me his evil lil care bear or his pocket girlfriend. When people say it they don't mean it to be negative usually. Play up the names me and my friend who was 5 ft even did the oompa loompa dance during passing period all the way down the halls from class to class and dressed like elves before christmas break.I know how it is to be in your place but try to make the most of it you have no say in how tall you are and by high school most of the guys want to date the short chicks anyways cuz we are more fun as long as u learn to enjoy life you'll be ok

Well, kid i'm gonna tell you a secret. At your age, alot of times it looks like the world perfect for the other person. Usuakky its not.
First dont worry about being called cute, at the right time, the right guy probably will call you cute too. Cute can mean alot of things.
Enjoy being 13. Don't worry about dating so fast. Hey, i garantee you'll have your share of boy friends when the time comes, soon enough. However, rushing to have a boy friend has sometimes leads to "dating the jerk syndrome". Its better to be the girl that is "single" at 13 than the one who dates a jerk or gets pregnat, god forbid. Heck I've seen girls as old as 20 get mixed up emotionally dating the wrong guy.
In short, walk talk even tho, your short. Have fun and don't look too hard for guys. I garantee that they will be chasing you soon enough, so its better to be picky on a right. Be proud of yourself and then you'll be strong enough to date the right guy because you want to, not because your a basket case without him.
As for being cute? Well, embrace it. Guys fall badly in love with cute too, ...

first of all you need to except who you are and second you cant please other people all the time, so what if u are short get over it. jr high and high school will be ackward and weird so just try to survive. PLUS girls stop growing at 18 so take your calcium and vitamin c and ull grow some more sooner or later....you need to built some self confidence...every morning when you wake up look at ur self in the mirror and tell yourself that you like urself and that you are a smart woman and that you are important for who you are inside not what you look like outside. Physical appearances fade but ur brain will never. You will get a date sooner or later....some people dont start dating until they are 18+...relax u are just experiencing life....it doensnt get any easier unless u except the things that you cannot change and change the things that you can. Good luck.

Sweetie, I am 38 yrs and 4'11 .. Enjoy the attention. Don't let it get to you.. Chin up! You will be ask out.. Better to wait for the right guy than to get a jerk anyway. Your still young. I once dated a guy that was 6'4 and do you know even when I was on my tip toes it was still hard to hug and kiss him?! It will happen hang in there.. Hey, I would rather be shorter that taller then the guys~ Keep positive and smile. Personality counts most. Remember dynamite comes in small packages and less is more.

I'm very sorry you feel that way. I thought girls like you are really adorable but I guess by thinking that way, ended up hurting someone. I feel ashamed to think that they are cute.
People call you with these names are probably jealous(like me...I wish I was tiny) or simply teasing for some reasons. Don't take it so seriously, it will do the best for you ^ ^
About being asked out, don't worry so much. There's like 80 more years for you to live you know XD You will fine boys likes a girl like you, I can tell!
I hope you'll feel better and wish you the best luck. Take care!

Wow! I get picked on a lot at school to. What I have learned is to not feel like you are being left out. Get out there and talk to people. There is an eighth grader at my middle school that calls me "oompa loompa." I do have a girlfriend that is 5'1/2 feet tall, but it doesn't matter how tall you are. I feel left out to at times. I have took a girl to "Peer Mediation" because she was calling me "gay." I was upset. So see you are not the only one that feels left out.
