The sight or the smell?

By Anonymous - 08/11/2022 18:00

Today, my girlfriend said she hates my feet and it’s a real turn off. It’s got to the point where if she sees my feet in bed she won’t sleep in the same bed as me. I hate wearing socks in bed, so not sure how we can resolve this. FML

she ain't the one. find a person who enjoys you for you and isn't worried so much about feet. also, clean your feet. oh, you already do? do it more sucka, they're dirty.

I once had a girlfriend say something similar, but not carry it out so far. It turns out, as I discovered years later, that I had toenail fungus. I had had it my whole life, so I didn't know my feet weren't supposed to look and smell that way. I assume (in retrospect) that she was too embarrassed to just tell me what the real problem is. If there's any chance something similar might be going on, and she doesn't want to talk about it, and you have decent insurance, you might see if your regular doctor will refer you to a podiatrist for a checkup. But hopefully if you just asked her point blank if she suspects you might have a foot condition (athlete's foot, whatever), she could find the moxy to tell you, even though it's awkward.

Ask her for specifics and maybe try getting a pedicure? And keep your feet under the covers. Sorry you guys are going through this. If you do get the pedicure, maybe she’ll be happy with your effort and help foot the bill.

Maybe clip your toenails and take a shower or bath?

How crazy are your feet? Also this seems like a made up reason to create distance because she's already sleeping with your best friend...if I know this site at all.

Amputation. You can get those cool Oscar Pistorius blades -- just don't murder your girlfriend.
