Stop complaining! I'm around 165cm and I'm a 17 year old guy! Even I don't complain because there's a couple boys in my grade who are shorter than me, and fyi, i'm not Asian! (I'm still shorter than my dad)
176cm is NOT SHORT. It's average height. I'd say anything from 5'8'' (1.73m) to 5'10.5'' (1.79m) is average, for a guy.
For a girl, average height is probably between 5'3'' (1.60m) to 5'6'' (1.68m).
Males grow till 21, so don't give up hope. Don't go on human growth hormone, because that will have side affects for your future and no sane doctor will prescribe it for you because your average height! How tall are your parents? Height is based on genetics, lifestyle and nutrition. You can't change genetics, but you can alter lifestyle and nutrition. Try to eat foods that stimulate natural HGH. Also, do exercise that elongates the spinal cord, such as swimming.
I'm a midget and i'll be the first one to tell you, there is a lot more to life than height! Confidence > height in the eyes of any girl! You lack confidence because you think your short. And if you feel that your height is putting you at a serious disadvantage (which it is NOT), then why don't you get a pair of elevator shoes, like everyone in Hollywood does. That can elevate your height by 3 inches, which means you'll be probably around the 183cm range.
