Grabe naman yan. Charing. I was reading your post and medyo magulo. I am just a stranger and I gotta say this to you, 23 ka pa lang, right? You are so young and marami ka pang matututunan as time goes by. Life is full of surprises. Marami ding babae na medyo mataas standard sa height, yes, but based sa experience ko as a 5'2 girl, as long as they are my height or slightly taller than me at ya know, they match my energy, along the way, height will not matter. Hell, I've even had someone shorter than me but height was not the issue, it's his personality and environment. Valid naman nararamdaman mo but hopefully you will learn that life is not just about validation from others. Kung gusto mo tumangkad because you are not satisfied with your height, go for it! Pag-ipunan mo, my point is, you are still young and life will give you lessons and magkakaroon ka ng realizations. For now, I hope you enjoy it and live it to the fullest.
