Height does not matter. There's always someone out there for you. Don't chase after people that treat you like you're too short or too tall. Be yourself, someone will love you for who you are.

Well first off, there is no qualification for you to be datable. Even if the guys around you right now consider you to be too short, you will find guys, who will like you for the person you are and not because of some abstract height qualification.

Realize that regardless of your height, weight, hair color, gender, or race, you can enter the dating world. If you think that being too short, or too fat, or too thin, or too tall, will prevent you from ever having a boyfriend; the problem lies within you. Learn to accept you, and your wonderful, beautiful, unique body, becuase no one else on the planet has it. You are special, and please don't ever wish to change for a guy. Someone who wants to date you should appreciate you for who you already are. :P

Oh lovely, you aren't too short for a guy to date. You haven't crossed paths with the right ones yet! Someone will love every single thing about you, but when you meet The One, you'll have a connection which makes all of the physical things fade into irrelevance. We only have the bodies we're born with, and while there are some things we can adjust with lifestyle, there are some things which are just us; that's how we're going to live in the world.
I'm short, and my soul guy is 6'. We have a giggle about it, but the honest truth, and I know it's hard to imagine if someone has said, or implied, something like "You're too [anything]....." in the past, but when you do meet someone who is right for you - none of that matters.
Pick out some things you like about yourself, emphasize your wonderful qualities, and wear clothes that make you feel confident, and comfortable. Keep your head up, and focus on the times you felt so proud of yourself that you walked tall and it. felt. GREAT. If you find you can't bring them to mind, imagine the ideal you - confident in your height, and confident to be the very best version of yourself.
You are more than enough.

Wait... You're too short for a guy to date you??
Or a guy won't date you because he thinks you're "too short"?
If someone thinks that you're "too" much of anything (besides positive things like you're too beautiful/handsome etc) then I don't think you should even want to date him. He should accept you for something you are. You can't just have a growth spurt all of a sudden. And unless you want to wear highheels all the time, I would step away from him and be like, "Okay man, you're missing out on a lot of this *gestures at self* just because of my height tho."

Do you love him? Does he love you? Do you genuinely respect each other? Are you happy together? If the answer to these questions is yes, then height should not matter. Nothing else should matter actually. Just be together like there is no limit at all. And simply enjoy it.

It's common to be self conscious about physical characteristics that you cannot change. But, there's nothing wrong with being short. Try and embrace it. There are some guys that prefer shorter heights and find it incredibly attractive.

The best thing you can ever do to yourself is self acceptance. You are your best enemy but also best cheerleader. You are worthy of anyone.

If anyone thinks you are too short then you shouldn't date them anyways. Find someone who likes you for you.

Ask yourself what positive attributes you have as to why a guy would want to date you. You need to question why are you looking at your shortcomings instead of your virtues.
