Today, after about a year of keeping it a secret from my girlfriend, I told her about my foot fetish. She said "EWWWWWWWW!" and left. She's ignoring my calls and has changed her relationship status to single on Facebook. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend of two years asked me why I would never tie her shoes for her. I confessed to her my deep hatred of feet. Later, I woke up from a nap next to my girlfriend. With her feet in my mouth. FML
Today, I witnessed my girlfriend eat the dead skin from the soles of her feet. FML
Today, my girlfriend got into my Facebook account and changed our relationship status to single, just to see which of my friends would "like" it. After revealing to me what she did, she now says I can no longer be friends with anyone who liked it. FML
Today, after finally breaking up with my controlling girlfriend, she took a shit in my socks. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she is breaking up with me for my friend, because she likes people with diaper fetishes. I had no clue either of them liked that stuff. FML
Today, I was at my girlfriend's house having dinner with her and her parents. I was casually playing footsie with my girlfriend under the table, until her mom stopped eating and said, "You know that's my foot, right?" FML
Today, I told my girlfriend that I'm breaking up with her because she's very abusive. After a couple of seconds of awkward silence, she kicked me in the nuts and ran away. FML
Today, I told my boyfriend about my foot phobia. To help me "get over it", he took his socks off, pinned me down, and rubbed his foot against my face until I started sobbing. FML
Today, I was talking to this guy I liked at work. He was flirting with me, and everything was going great, I was so happy, until he started talking non-stop about the extent of his foot fetish. FML
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

From someone who hates feet with a passion and will chop it off if it comes near me, I wouldn't leave someone because of that fetish. Sorry she wasn't mature enough to accept you, hopefully you will find someone that does.

There are plenty more feet in the sea!

I may not understand that whole foot fetish business, but I do see that she wasn't mature about it. Maybe you're better off without her after all

Personally, despite it being "normal" in some people's eyes, I couldn't bring myself to understand how feet turns people on. Being truly honest, we have been brought up knowing feet carry an array of germs, and that in itself repulses the idea of having feet anywhere near my face. In saying that, kissing and rubbing feet with your significant other can be very stimulating without it being a kink; no more than biting a neck. Feet touching feet? I can live with that. Feet and face? If its a fetish I'm sorry babe, but if my adamant opposition to it turns you off, we aren't right for each other. It's not immaturity; it's called being a realist. Sorry, not sorry.

Thank you, the idea persisting Idea the partner should continue if it's something they aren't comfortable with. Most women I've known find feet in general gross. That's it, someone isn't required to understand or close-minded because it isn't their thing. They don't like it move on. What kind of mentality is it if someone isn't into something you are and they know that's not for them? I"d say that's being realistic. Not everything works if you keep trying. Sometimes just cause you tried isn't enough and there is no gold at the end of the rainbow.

You don't have to participate in a fetish you are uncomfortable with, though I'd say you should talk about it and try to find a compromise before you just end things, but this was a ridiculous reaction. Screaming 'ew', ignoring op, and basically letting him know the relationship was over by Facebook status?

What's so bad about a foot fetish? There's so much worse out there...

There are worse fetishes than foot fetishes.. My ex has a pee fetish.

I do to, and I was up front with my fiance, 3 years. And while it does nothing for her, she was able to live with, partly because she knows I love it, she has nothing massive against it, and mostly because I didn't wait a year, letting her form one opinion of me, just to change something major.

Exactly! A foot fetish is pretty tame compared to some of the stuff people like...

Unsure what all entails a foot fetish & I'm sure it's different from person to person...but heck, if it involves me getting a great foot rub - I'm ALL in. Sounds like a total win-win.

While OP by no means deserves this treatment, I can't agree with others that she should have gotten over it. Did she react immaturely? Hell yes. That being said, some things that are turn-ons for some people are deal breakers for others. If my SO told me they had a fetish for ballooning (It's a thing. Look it up.) I wouldn't judge them for it, but I'd let them know that it'd be something for their alone time. That being said, there are lots of other things that we have tried. It is all about working with what you are comfortable with. It's fine to experiment and push the boundaries, but if someone genuinely dislikes something sexually, they shouldn't participate solely out of the desire to please their partner. Partners should respect each other's boundaries. It really is unfortunate that the OP's girlfriend wasn't open-minded to this particular fetish, but that doesn't mean she is a close minded person in general. The way she handled this, however, was completely childish. TL;DR: Girlfriend was immature, but each person's comfort zone is different and should be respected.

I get that fetishes are personal to the individual and you aren't necessarily going to enjoy or understand them, but that was incredibly immature of her to do that to you (I'm going to assume that you did just inform her and didn't try to force her into anything). I'm sorry OP, I hope you're alright and that you can find someone a lot more mature.

- Seriously, what kind of reaction is that for her to have? You were brave to tell her like that. Some FML's make me feel so mad for the OP.

I think you waited to long to tell her
megs925 16
Wow. That's awfully childish.

Oh, buddy, I'm so sorry. It must really hurt since you waited so long and trusted her. Don't take it too hard though, if she was that shallow and inconsiderate, she certainly wasn't worth it. Don't feel ashamed about what you like man.
