partyshoes

Me .. havent done it myself but am always in awe of girls who do. In my travels, i see girls doing it all the time! Couple of years ago in Russia, mates and I were coming out of a bar. Had been snowing heavily and my mate in front seemed to have forgotten this and promptly slipped and fell flat on his arse! We all clung to support such as walls and handrails so as not to follow him whilst having a good chuckle at his expense. To add insult to injury (well at least pride) - a young lady wearing the most stunning boots I've ever seen with 4' heels - stopped to help him up. SHe took the time to make sure he was OK and steady before strutting off into the snow like it was a dry day. She was fabulous So, dont think there anything wrong with it - the traction appropriate heels give probably make them safer on snow and ice than your average shoe.

i cannot stand that hook-nosed bint, so I avoid her & BB at every opportunity. she does wear nice heels occasionally though.

I think she's ok, - she wears great heels a lot of time and these boots were really hot. Was mentioning in another post that I should probably consider boots for this weather and these are right up there but I just know that I cannot afford them

it's the programme that I cannot stand!

That reminded me of a court case my dad had to serve jury duty on. Apparently some guy was cheating on his wife and she decided to get even and put super glue in his underpants. You can guess the rest.

OUch! Thats not funny - not sure that I want to imagine the rest, Hope she got sent down

First off, welcome to the site Heels Love - you're right, it is a funny old world but who knows, hopefully through forums like this, men in heels will come to be accepted

You should come to the World Heel Meet!

Talking of that ..when is it?

Morning Buggerlugs and welcome Look forward to hearing more from you when time allows. my tip for the day from cheshire - dont wear peep toes to nip out to the garage! It wasnt the heels and the snow that were the problem - but its seriously colder than it looks. Maybe I do need a nice pair of boots?!

I Wish!! More chance of pigs flying

It says more about him than it does you.

Everybody is now going to know now not to trust him and that can only diminish him and not you.

I agree with Dr Shoe. From what I've read so far, you've not had any adverse reactions from people who he told so its safe to assume that they either dont mind or dont care. Either way I dont think you have anything to worry about - but he will be down as untrustworthy. Ignore him

PS Re visit to counsellor - go for it, its a nice outfit

Kittyinboots, its really encouraging to read how your wife has gradullay accpeted your heeling. YOur story gives the rest of us hope that our wives will eventually come around too. Look forward to hearing more in future

Leather for me!

Hi, Guess its each to their own! Personally I prefer an almond or round toe but that said .. I wont say no to pointy shoe either! Have a couple of pairs in the cupboard. Guess my preference stems from the fact that pointy shoes really make my feet look even longer than they are! They seem to stick out for miles under my trousers As to heels, I must admit I its about the height for me. If its really thin and sexy .. great. If its more blocky and high .. thats great too. As I said, each to their own. So, welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy your time amongst like minded folk and look forward to hearing more from you

Love the Dorsays .. rather jealous!!

voted for blade .. although I have nothng against a nice stiletto. some of amsterdams cobble streets can be tricky in stiletto Must admit, the Dutch girls do Heels beautifully! Some are so tall but still wear heels .. an inspiration to us all!

6'4 in bare feet .. 6'7, 6'8 in my favourites - door frames can be so cruel!

What more can you ask for? I agree with the co-operative, slightly nervous approach which you can then expand on. Anyway Advice is cheap and we arent in your shoes so to speak .. just hope they the heels you want to be in Good luck, enjoy and let us know how it goes

VERY NICE!! Come to Daddy my little red beauties

Welcome - nothing quite beats the feel of a nice pair of tights or stockings! Hope to hear more from you

Hey CPB, welcome to the site. Hope that you enjoy your time here and find the support that we all do. As already mentioned there are quite a few of us 'saffers' here already and glad to see the numbers growing. There is a group 'south african heelers' which you will find on the groups page - look forward to seeing you soon

Hey Crazyewok, First of all welcome and congrat's on your first purchase. Hope you enjoy your time here amongst like minded people. In case you dont already know, New Look not only do some cool affordable styles but they also do some of them in a 9 and have wide fit shoes too. Not so long ago that I got myself a nice pair of black suede peep toes - 4' with small platform. Barratts also do 9's though I havent come across a wide fit there. Best of luck and looking forward to hearing more about you.

Not only did she not freak out, but as we're the same size we used to borrow each other's heels and whenever one of us bought a new pair the other got to try them on.

Now thats the kind of family we all hope for

Hi, welcome. Glad that you finally got the courage to pull the trigger. Am sure that you will enjoy your time here and will find that we are an easy bunch to get on with. Why dont you tell us abit more about yourself

It would be fun if they do more in other areas - it certainly is a worth while cause

Interesting that if you scroll through the pictures on the LHS, the 3rd one is one a bloke in a suit wearing some killer red platform heels. Maybe its not just limited to the girls? PS Turns out to be Vernon Lay in a video i found on the site. Seemed quite comfortable in them too

Wood & Metal, The advice that has been given thus far is good and the only thing that I would add is to give it a few more days. Speaking from experience - it took my good wife over a week to broach the topic with me again. Admittedly I did drop the bombshell which in hindsight was very poor judgement from my part. As has been pointed out, this is a private matter and I think she just needed the time to digest this on her own as its not something she wanted to discuss with her friends. When we eventually chatted again I slowed it right down and let her steer the conversation with some coaching where necessary. We discussed that they were only shoes and had no influence over sexuality etc - ultimately her fear was that she would lose her best friend and partner which was not the case. Although she has 'accepted' it, she has said that she doesn't want to be a part of it which I have to respect although I hate hiding it from her. Fast forward a year or so on and she still wont openly accept it although she did ask me to help her out by stretching her new suede pumps cos they were a little tight and she wanted to wear them out. Anyway, I've rambled enough. Long and short of it is that its early doors yet - give her more time. And my advice - if you can look her in the eyes when you have the next chat, do it. If not in person, sign up to skype and make just one call using video, it will be worth the hassle Fingers crossed - good luck

The penny's dropped!

Big Style !

You go sept181 .. another success story to inspire the rest of still nervous about going out. . Let us know of any more adventures

Enjoy the time in heels - it will be well worth the wait. Look forward to hearing from you
