I don't even really like to call my obsession an obsession, I just can't think of a better word.
Here's an example...
I was at a Seafood Festival this weekend, me and my little man were standing on line for a dreaded port-a-potty. I noticed a man walk up behind me with his son, I looked back and noticed that he was fucking HAWWT!!! Damn!. Yes, I have a boyfriend of 12 years, but I can admire the opposite sex.
After, I examined his beautiful, flawless face, my eyes follow the length of his body to his feet. Lucky for me he was wearing flip flops. I was freaking flabbergasted by what I saw. His toes were funkified, one of his toes was curled up like a cobra, I thought that sucker was about to attack me. A damn shame, I had to stop looking at the hot guy, his feet ruined it for me.
Okay, they didn't look like this. But, they could have. |
So there you have it, whenever I meet anyone new, I have to see what their feet look like. I obviously don't ask them to remove their shoes so I can take a peek, but if they are out in plain view, I will look.
Chris and I had been dating a week or so, one day he asked me to come over to his house after he got off work.
I personally, thought he was handsome enough, but I had yet to see his feet.
I showed up at his house and rang the doorbell, he answered the door still in his work uniform and I looked down and saw bare feet. Oh my, take me now! He has the most beautiful feet. His toes are perfectly placed and asymmetrical. His toenails were clean and well groomed. I do believe that was the moment I fell in love with him and I wanted him to be the father of my future children.
I've always hated my feet, my Mom had the ugliest feet I've ever seen. My feet don't look exactly like her's, but I do see some similarity. I don't like my feet they are somehow long and wide. My toes are skinny. ICK!
So, this maybe the reason why I check out everyone else's feet. Who knows.. I'm not a shrink.
Anyway, I was in ICU after giving birth to my daughter (I had major problems with my C-section) I woke up and saw Chris sitting beside me. After dry heaving for 5 minutes, I asked Chris.
"Who's feet does she have?"
Chris smiled knowing why I asked this question, "She has your feet."
"NO!! What the Fuck." I screamed, getting the attention of all the nurses.
I immediately started to cry.
"I'm just kidding babe, she has my feet." Chris confessed.
"Oh Thank God, and this is not the time to joke about important stuff." I sniffed.
C'mon on you guys, I did get to see her after she was born for an second, I knew she had all of her fingers, but yeah, I wasn't sure about the toes.
FYI.. both my kids have Chris' feet! YAY!!
Feet can tell a lot about a person, if they are well groomed and cleaned. That's all I usually look for but, come to find out there is more to it. My friend Tasha @ New English Mum in America sent me this article.
Check it out and see what your feet say about you.

Argh!! My eyes! Those pics are so nasty!!! This post is great though! You really are quite hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking back to me!! xo
xoxo
DeleteOh, this was too funny. I actually used to look at a guy's SHOES! Not quite the same thing, but I wanted to know that the guy cared enough about those details.
ReplyDeleteWhere in the world did you find that nasty picture? YIKES!! I may have to skip breakfast now. LOL
Thanks for the laugh!

you can find anything on google. LOL.. thanks for reading.
DeleteTHANK YOU!! Mrs. C claims my feet are funny looking because they are so asymetrical. She has that pointy toe bigger than her thumb toe thing...I can hardly look! I claim the symetry is desirable and now I have your esteemed opinion to back me up.
ReplyDeleteYou are quite welcome! :)
DeleteHaha I loved this post! I think it's true that you can tell a lot about someone by their feet! Now I have an obsession with small children's and baby feet. I LOVE them....all of them! Doesn't matter whose child it is! But I cannot stand adult feet. They are all gross LOL.
ReplyDeleteA fun post, even though I'll probably never understand the fascination some people have for feet. Not up there with my favorite body parts at all. But to each his or her own, I always say. What's important in life is that everyone admire chubby people!
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend is a a chubby person.. more to love and of course bigger boobies for me to squeeze when I need his full attention. LOL j/k
DeleteHi there! I have ventured over from the Nice to Meet You blog hop. I'm enjoying this little peak into your world! Mandi @ All My Happy Endings
ReplyDeleteHahaha! I quite enjoy asymmetry myself. I can't stand when the second toe is longer than the first. I actually look at teeth first. I don't know why but I have a fascination with teeth, similar to your feet thing. Thanks for the great post!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI hate my feet too! and my Princess has a problem where her toenails grow up instead of out. If I cut them they look cute, but they also give her ingrown toenails... So we HAVE to let them grow out(up) :/ when she is older she will have to have the side of her nails on her big toes cut so she can trim her nails without pain but unit then she has ugly toes... her feet are cute though other than the pesky nails
ReplyDeleteOh, those photos are just wrong!!! EWWWWW! Feet do show how well groomed someone is in a way, but sometimes, you just get what you are dealt! I have boxy feet, not pretty, but I take good care of them! Don't hate me because of my feet :)!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat post. I have a thing about women's feet. As you said, nothing weird, but I like to see nice clean, properly manicured women's feet in summer sandals, for example. And that article about the meaning of different toes and their shapes...fascinating! I think my feet/toes are pretty much normal, nicely symetrical, nothing odd. And certainly nothing unclean/unkept.

Aww your babies have such cute toes, unlike my Spawn's whose toes are more like fingers. (I'm just glad he wasn't born with hooves)
ReplyDeleteI'm was buried deep beneath my covers suffering from flu but then I clicked on the article and just had to whip my feet out and analyze them.
Great post, though now my throat is sore from laughing. :)
Lily, laughter is the best medicine!! Hope you feel better soon
Deletexoxo
Omg those photos were hilarious! Is it just me, or does the girl licking her own feet look a little like Kristen Stewart?! Awesome post!

Holy Crap.. it does like Kristen Stewart!! HAHA!!!
DeleteI have a thing about feet, too. Do you remember that movie "Boomerang" with Eddie Murphy? He had a thing about feet in that movie and it was HILARIOUS.
ReplyDeleteMy man has pretty feet (mine aren't too shabby, either). So with you on this - can't have funked up feet.
ReplyDeleteI just saw that I'm listed under "Blogs I Love" - bring it in...let's hug it out. Thank you!
Deleteomg i think i just gagged and puked a little! Baby feet are the best...when there's hair on the knuckles, that's over!
ReplyDeleteNote to self: Do not read Bad Word Mama's posts while eating lunch. I have a strong urge for a pedicure tho...
ReplyDeleteThis is so funny! Makes complete sense for being relationship criteria. And your pictures are perfect--still cringing a bit at the second...
ReplyDeleteChildren have such perfect little feet and what a cute picture of your babies. Things just take a dive the older you get. Hairs pop up, nails darken and get thick, cracks appear everywhere plus no amount of scrubbing will change anything and all you can do is hide them away. I guess I'm picturing my own feet right now. I never thought I'd say this, but maybe it's a good idea I live in such a cold country because we wear full shoes and boots most of the time. Thanks Great Britain, ha ha ha ha.
ReplyDeleteI've got a thing about feet too. There's nothing sexier than a man who'll take the time to keep his nails neat and clean. Nothing.
ReplyDeleteThat foot-reading article was disturbingly accurate for my feet lol
ReplyDeleteA man with heinous, gnarly feet is definitely not someone I want to date...the feet from that pic,I'd gag if he came near me with those atrocities
very interesting. I've always found feet interesting, too. My MIL thinks I'm weird because I say my daughter's feet look like hers. But, they do. I am just happy not to have the horrible pointed callus on my pinky toes that my mother has. ICK!
ReplyDeleteI HATE yucky toenails!! I'm scarred for life after seeing my Grandpa's thick, yellow, funkified toenails once!
ReplyDeleteI can certainly understand your obsession. While I don't obsess over feet I DO have my own battles with hands.
ReplyDeleteIt's basically the same thing but with hands. Whenever I meet someone new, I have to look at their hands. Are their fingernails trimmed, neat, and clean? Nothing turns me off more than a dude with gunk under his nails. Grosssss...
I look for rough hands, which means a person works hard.
Hands are important and tell a lot about a person.
Long fingers typically mean an artistic type, while shorter fingers aren't as attractive.
Um... I just realized how crazy *I* sound so I'll stop here. But I get it. I do.
I look at fingers too, dirty fingernails are fucking disgusting!! I didn't know that the size of them meant anything. Learn something new every day.
DeleteThanks for stopping by :)
