I am meeting someone I have never met and need to describe myself and I was thinking about how I do that. Do I write short, petite, small,or compact? It is hard to know what to say to sound physically small but also cute. (Or sexy)

I suddenly have a memory of being much younger, perhaps in my teens, when all my girlfriends were much taller than me and I felt more attractive to boys. I was short and had freckles more of the "best friend" scenario than object of desire.

I remember being really upset and talking to my dad. He told me not to worry because I was a 'pocket Venus'. The words didn't really comfort me at the time but every once in a while I think about that and it makes me feel better.

I am a pocket Venus.
