I Am Small For My Age

so i always knew i was really small for my age and, but today i had a bit of a rude awakening. as some you may know the weather has been really nice here, so me and a girl from school went to town to get some swim suits and use her family's hot tub. now im Japanese and shes English and im a year older than her, yet im she in the avarge clothe sizes for my age and i was in ages 9 to 10 or 10 to 11. it was both annoying and embarrassing

Don't worry about it, size is different in different parts of the world, for example I wear size Medium or Large jackets made in Europe but they're XL or even XXL if from China. Y
ou are probably just the normal size for an asian girl of your age but the clothes are labeled for the average UK children. For example at 17years old a 165cm girl is considered short where I live but average height of girls in japan is 158cm so she would be considered tall there and need larger size clothes than what they buy here.
Hope you don't feel complexed by that, it's something natural.
