You're not short. Your height is perfectly normal for Asian women.
I'm 5'3 and an Indian so that makes me one inch taller than an average Indian/Bangladeshi/Pakistani/Korean woman. My boyfriend is Caucasian and is 6 feet tall. He often jokes about it but I respond by telling him that I'm just right and that he's a beanstalk! You could try that! I'm sure your boyfriend's just pulling your leg, that's all. Chinta koro naa! (Yes, I know your language!) :-)

I had to translate that into English! 5'4" as against 5'11" - just perfect, so you have nothing to worry about at all.

I'm close to you in height. You're not too short.
It doesn't sound as though your boyfriend means any harm. The short jokes are probably along the lines of 'cute' and someone he feels protective of.

Not at all, and being short's amazing! I'm 5'3, and I get called short all the time, xD.. It doesn't matter what your height is, and I'm sure he's joking, but if it hurts your feelings, tell him please. :)
Remember: We're not short, we're fun size.
Lots of love, Val. ~

According to my own experiences, when your boyfriend teases you about something (being short in your case, being flat chest in mine), he doesn't really think about it seriously. It's just some jokes he makes and won't be thinking about it at all, let alone thinking about how it might make you feel. I'm pretty sure he still loves you the way he always does. However, if he does it too often or make you embarrassed in public, I think you should really let him know how he might make you feel bad about yourself.
considering you're from Bangladesh, 163 is not too short at all. I'm 166 and never been called short in my life, not even when I moved to the UK. If your boyfriend teases you again, next time hit back with something like "you know, my height is normal. It's you who's abnormal" ;)
