Being a tall late bloomer

Discussion

As an early teen I was as tall as my friends but they were obviously more developed. They teased me a lot which for some reason bothered me as a kid. I’m just now starting to get the real benefits from puberty and i feel like if i had always been like this I would’ve been unstoppable.

If you think this might be you do not worry at all. I remember thinking i was forever cursed with low muscle mass and a feminine face. It was genuinely a daily battle at the time Because i was comparing myself unknowingly to people who were literally years of development ahead of me.

It feels very satisfying now though and Im glad I went through it. To all the late bloomers your time will come even if it’s not for a while.
