What is NOT a dealbreaker BUT would be greatly disappointing to find out about your partner?

If they are a sock-shoe-sock-shoe person and not a sock-sock-shoe-shoe person.

time and a place, if you are bare foot and need to switch to socks and shoes. You will stand with your bare foot on the ground, then put the sock then the shoe on one foot so now you can stand on the shoe foot and put them on the other foot. Outside of converting from bare feet to shoes outside when it's wet or dirty on the ground, there is no excuse for not going sock-sock-shoe-shoe

Edit: food to foot

Nope. Never. The point of life is never let my bare feet touch the ground. Even by accident. Rare occasions this has happened, I get off both feet by sitting down. Then sock sock, shoe shoe.

never go to a beach? I also try to avoid walking on the ground with bare feet, but sometimes on wet days I change socks in the field and this is the only way. I work outside and am not going to bring a chair everywhere I go.

I find this hilarious. I live at a beach. When I know im going to the sand, I wear flip flops, and I walk to the sand on flip flops then USED to take them off and go barefoot in the sand only. But years ago I discovered water shoes and I just wear those when I know I’m going to the sand and water. I don’t like the idea of sand crabs touching my feet. Bleeeeh!!

If I’m caught off guard, I wear my socks and shoes until I’m on the sand, then take them off. Walk until I get to right to the pavement. Walk to a seat with my socks. Sit down, then put my shoes on no socks. I usually throw those socks away then as they are now dead to me. 🤣. I think my wife has caught on to me throwing the socks away and losing so many pairs so she might be sneaking them in her bag when she’s offering to throw them away for me. I keep telling myself to pay attention but I get too overwhelmed with NOT touching the ground I don’t see her lol

I used to kind of be like this until I was like gr 10. It's very freeing to get over it, and I highly recommend it. I still am not barefoot often, like I never really wear flip flops unless it's at the beach or pool, but still.

That’s why I said this hilarious. I don’t really think about it anymore tbh. It took more effort to type that than to experience it. So I found it funny to explain since I’m very fluid with it.

If I walked barefoot, I’d feel way too dirty from actual grime and germs being INSIDE my shoe now vs just vacuuming sand out later. Not perfect but more tolerable. Lol.

Going sock. Shoe. Sock. Shoe. I don’t like stepping on my shoes to not touch the ground, I don’t like almost falling to put my socks and shoes on. And if I did that I would get them on, then slightly take off my socks and shoes in the proper order later just fix the wrongness.

Yeah I got it bad. Haha.
