I don’t like feet! I just don’t like feet!
I tend to avoid looking at them. I am very easily ‘squicked’ out by feet. I avoid letting people touch my feet. I even went for years avoiding wearing footwear that showed my toes.
When my man discovered my feelings about my feet and the strength of my reactions to them being touched, he made them a target of his attention. I have also lavished more attention on his feet than I thought was possible. I have kissed, licked, sucked and adored his feet. It not only didn’t hurt me to do it, I loved doing it because I didn’t see them as a pair of feet. I saw them as a part of the man that I totally adore.
That was an important part of my learning process and a change in me. Feet are a part of the person that they belong to. I believe that I am good enough to give myself completely to my man. If that is true, I can’t keep my feet as a disassociated part of me. I need to learn to love all of me. I have come such a long way in doing this with his help. I still react strongly to touch on my feet but I don’t recoil. I have even started noticing that other people have nice feet. This is such a huge change in me.
Today’s picture is a reminder to me and a thank you to him.

“I need to learn to love all of me.”
It’s good when we learn this… One day I hope I can learn to love my feet as well… :-/
Liked the picture.

I think sometimes it takes the force of will of a determined lover to even make us start seeing them.
I agree…and it’s grand when they do… 🙂

It took us a while to learn to love every part.
Loving every part of him is easy.
If I touch wifey’s feet she freaks out. I am not allowed to kiss them, any more than I am allowed to kiss her bum 🙁
Loving every part of her is easy; letting me do it isn’t possible,
Aaw, John. That is a shame. I understand how she feels about feet though.
Such a beautiful picture for a very good cause! I really love the simplicity in the photo, which makes it stand out a lot!

This is beautiful. I love the way you write about learning to love all of you and how your partner has helped you with that. I can completely identify with that sentiment

Thank you.
That is awesome. I am glad you got over not liking feet. What a cute pic.
Reblogged this on MaríMar.
I love everything about this post, so well done! And thank you for the reminder!

I’m still a little squicked out about feet, too. The only real exceptions are my children’s feet – I’ve never hesitated to tickle them or kiss their little toes…well, until they get bigger and begin to have stinky feet…lol…
But yes, when I love someone, their feet don’t make me squeamish at all…
And you have cute feet. 🙂
I know that feeling and yes – they do get less cute as your kids grow through teenage.
The oldest is 8, and they’re already not so cute…and much stinkier than ever before…lol
I detest feet, I hate people touching mine, and don;t like touching anyone elses lol, but I understand the sentiment behind the image here 🙂

It’s funny how things change when they’re attached to or desired by someone you have strong feelings for.
That is so true and I definitely desire him.
I love how your feet are nestled together. The words on your body ring true. I love it!
Thank you. 🙂
Feet can be a touchy issue and can go either way. I’m glad you got over your dislike of feet, but most importantly, of your own feet. I know what it’s like not to love something about yourself; hell, I’m still trying to love all of me! Thanks for sharing this intimate part of yourself. xxx
Thank you. I did have to think carefully about posting this.
That’s lovely. I know I am not a fan of my feet but my fiancé is so while I see in grown toe nails and my bone spur he’s always kissing them and rubbing them. My brain still says he’s a head case but oh well. Kudos for owning your feet!
That is such a fantastic saying. I don’t like feet much either, I find a pedicure helps though!
I love feet! You have nice feet. They actually look a lot like mine.
