I'm short and I want that to change.

I'm short (5' 7") and almost 18 years old.

At this point in life people don't really get much taller than whatever height they currently sustain. I exercise and weight lift on a fairly regular basis and my face ain't half bad, but everytime I look in the mirror I can't help but feel absolutely retarded because of how short I am. Girls like a boy keeps himself in shape but one of the key things that can make or break the way a girl thinks about you... is height.

Most women aren't very tall and having a towering presence, becuase most straight women like to be "swept off their feet" or have a big strong man to "take them", over them is something most find very sexy.

So, finally, to my point, would taking human growth hormones be a safe and sensible idea in order to increase my stature? What are the advantages and drawbacks to using it? 4chan, please, endow me with your knowledge!

"Women don't like it when a guy is shorter than them, even by one inch. A girl told me that... "

And you actually believed her?  Bwaahahaaa!

A) Never believe what they say when they tell you why they don't like you.  It's rarely, if ever, the *real* reason.

B) Even if it *is* the reason, your evidence is *purely* anecdotal.  And I meet your anecdotal evidence and raise you by one:  (1) My kid brother is dating an absolute *babe* who's about 6 inches taller, and they're in it for the long-haul.  (2) My *mother* married my *father* when she was about 4 inches taller than him.

The *real* reason she didn't like you is because you're a whiny, insecure little bitch.
