I'm 5'8", and so through most of junior high I was taller than the majority of the boys. They caught up eventually, and my SO is 6'2".
My dad is 6'5" and my mother is 5'3". I never really worried about height difference; in fact, the guy I had a crush on all through high school was shorter than I was, and the guy I had my first time LTR with was 5'7".
I've always liked to wear high heels; I guess I just never let being taller than boys bother me. There are still parts of this country I can go to where I, even at 5'8" (which is only a little less than the average height of a male in the United States), am taller than everyone else. And that's okay with me.
