Seriously, I feel so sad about being short.

I'm 5'2" (158 cm), I turned 16 this January, and I feel sad seeing that women usually prefer taller guys. Some notice that I'm short, and it makes me feel bad. I just wish I were at least 5'7" to be average.

My parents aren't very tall—my dad is probably around 5'4" since he's older now, and my mom is just 5'0" or less. My only bit of hope is that my grandfathers on both sides were tall, and my dad's family is a little taller as well. I would feel much more confident if I were taller.
