asdf174 Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Hello. Well yesterday was kidn of exciting for me. It was my birthday and I woke up around 4:00 a.m. and decided well since its my bday I want to wear my heels outside, so I put on some cloths and a pair of jeans that had legs that covered my foot so I could hide the shoe, then I grabged my fav. pair of heels, and I went out for a walk. I was real nervous because this was the first time I did this in a while. (I live in a really rough neighborhood and could get jumped if I got "caught" sigh people have nothing better to do around here then to miss with other people who are different.) But since my foot was covered and no one could see the shoe I was able to walk about two blocks and back. I did it again this moarning only I was wearing a pair of shorts so the heel was compley exposed. I wore them outside for about 20 min. I was really nervous everytime a car would come I would step to decide and kind of hide in the tall grass just acting like I was stoping for a rest or something. Then I saw a guy come and walked back but then I made my self walk about two blocks in them without hideing and walked back. It was a really cool experience and now I want to wear them more. Go for longer walks etc.... . My ultimate goal is to walk/drive about 10 blocks to this store walk into the stoe by somethign and walk back home. While wearing pants that complety exposes the heel. Oh well I just thought I would share my experince with everyone. It's all good. ~Arron.
loveheel Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Have you considered trying to go out in some less extravagant shoes ? it may help to lower your anxiety level. Women walking around at 4.00am in those shoes would also get stares. But in any case, congratulations on your first steps outside. May there by many more to come.
Nicole Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 It seems to me that you may be better off to go out in the daylight- especially if you live in a rough neighbourhood. Although it does require more courage, (and believe me, I don't always find that courage), one does feel safer and less exposed. the truth shall make you fret
asdf174 Posted July 28, 2004 Author Posted July 28, 2004 Thanx. I have a few pairs of less extravagant shoes. prehaps I should try wearing those. Yeah it took me a while to build up the guts to do it. But I was glad to have done it. It's all good. ~Arron.
hiheellover23 Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 True it would be wiser to wear less extravagant heels but my philosophy is why where them if you can show them off. Cuz you know just wearing them inside your home can only be fun for so long. So what I say to asdf is that you are doing great progressing doing your walks but again just be careful because as we all know people are not as open minded to new desires so keep up the good work. Hit me up some time my friend. Ramon What ya see is what ya get no more or less!!
genebujold Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 Thanx. I have a few pairs of less extravagant shoes. prehaps I should try wearing those. Yeah it took me a while to build up the guts to do it. But I was glad to have done it. I concur. I don't live in a rough neighborhood at all, and the strip (Vegas) is about the safest place one could be - there's not a single square inch that's not covered by at least two security cameras. Many areas, such as those directly in front of casino entrances, are covered by several cameras! And police. And bouncers... So I feel quite safe walking the strip in heels. But anywhere else in town, it's a different matter, often quite different. It's still a low-crime town compared to most cities of the same size, but we have our fair share of crimes against people. Therefore, I always keep things discreete when off the strip! It's just the smart thing to do.
shyguy Posted July 29, 2004 Posted July 29, 2004 Yeah those shoes are great, but it takes some guts to wear those anywhere, and more than most to wear them in a bad neighbourhood. Kudos to you ASDF He was so narrow minded he could see through a keyhole with both eyes. Brown's Law: If the shoe fits, it's ugly
asdf174 Posted July 30, 2004 Author Posted July 30, 2004 Thank you for the nice comments. It took a while to build up the curage to wear them out again. But I'm gald I did. It's all good. ~Arron.
genebujold Posted July 31, 2004 Posted July 31, 2004 Be careful. I was clobbered four years ago and I wasn't even wearing heels. Wrong place, wrong time = lights out It took me months to recover from the mild brain injury. Be smart - don't be a target. Most aren't nearly as fortunate as I was, and there are elements out there who could care less about your brain, much less your life. Be careful, be safe. It's not worth pushing the envelope.
new_look Posted July 31, 2004 Posted July 31, 2004 i agree with wrong place wron time. some people you cant predict, usually those who are drunk. In our nightclubs, it gets to a stage where if you so much as glance in the direction of someone (whos had a few) then they think youre after a brawl, and often turns into one. Ive seen people jumped by lads or gangs of, just because they are gay etc. When such simple things can trigger a big fight, one can only wonder how many would attack you for wearing heels in the wrong place such as this. On the other hand, theres a busy main road close to where we live, and even in the dark, because of the volume of traffic and the lit up area, me and jade have enjoyed many an evening walk in the comfort of noone around and noone bothering us. so yes there is places to be and not to be daz
