"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
17, and i still want to grow...

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

You're an idiot. STEROIDS INHIBIT GROWTH. They seal off the part of your bone that makes you get taller, and thus you CAN'T GET TALLER ANYMORE.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I'm an idiot? No, Fred, I'm sorry... you're an idiot. You've proven that time and time again. Damn Canucks...

A local football player that I went to school with awhile ago went to his doctor for a physical. He was about 5'4" when his doctor prescribed a version of steroids to him. By the end of the year, he was 5'10". (Watch Fred get all huffy.)

You're both idiots.
On a serious note though, not all roids are created equal. I was perscribed to a type of steroid when I was a toddler cuz I had a nasty allergic reaction to Penicillin and ended up with hives. It wasn't an anabolic roid as far as I know. Anabolic roids do stunt growth. That's a fact.

Do heavy lifts that compress the spine, like squats, deadlifts, hack squats, clean and jerk. The only growth hormone triggers are in the spine, and these excersizes are the only ones that promote GH and Test.
On a further note, you still have a spurt to go. You really do grow until you are 21. My bud went 5'10" to 6'2" between begining of college and end of sophomore year, so don't brush it off as BS, it happens.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

From what I've heard, there's not much you can do to promote growth.
Sleep more, eat more, perhaps spine-compressing lifts like Soshyopath suggested - although you have to be careful with them. But even those things won't really make you grow much more (if at all). You're height is difficult to change... like wrists, it's all bone structure.
There's not much you can do to make yourself grow more, but there are a hell of a lot of things you can do to stunt your growth!
