Maybe you used to be the tallest in your elementary class until everyone else surpassed you, or maybe you've just always been the short girl. One thing you know for sure is your short height has put you through some rough encounters. But that's OK. We know we're not getting any taller so here's to being a shorty for life! Here's 12 #shortgirlprobs all of us short girls out there can relate to.

1. Going on your tippy toes just isn't enough

You end up having to climb on top of the counter to reach the top shelf.

2. The constant reminder

Constantly being reminded of how short you are as if you may have forgotten.

3. Heels as high as you want

You can wear heels as high as you want and you'll most likely still be shorter than the rest of your friends.

4. Short jokes

People think it's funny to use your head as an arm rest but you've been tired of that joke for years now.

5. Are you washing clothes or yourself?

You have to practically throw yourself into the washer machine to retrieve your clothes.

6. Sitting ridiculously close to your steering wheel

You have to move your seat up an unsafe amount to actually reach the gas and brake pedal.

7. Short walks get you winded

You have to put in twice the amount of effort to keep up with people while walking, thanks to your two inch long legs.

8. Shopping nightmare

Shopping for clothes is stressful enough but you've mastered the hacks: this shirt can be a dress and these capris can be jeans.

9. You notice every little pound you lose or gain *sigh*

10. Modeling was never an option

Your dreams of becoming a runway model have crushed years ago when you realized you would have to be an entire foot taller.

11. No, I'm not 12.

People mistake you for being way younger than you actually are thanks to your height.

12. You've learned to embrace and own your shortness because let’s be real, you’re not getting any taller!
