I’ve noticed I’m kind of into feet, and I’m wondering if that’s strange or off-putting in dating. Is it weird to have a thing for feet, or is it more common than I think? How do I bring this up with a partner without freaking them out? Any thoughts?
Honey, everyone has their quirks, and liking feet is way less weird than, say, cheating. Just be honest about it when things start getting intimate. If they’re the right person, they won’t care; if they freak out, you dodged a bullet.
Hi CircuitCore,
Having a foot fetish or being attracted to feet is actually quite common! Studies estimate 1 in 7 people are into feet to some degree. There’s nothing inherently weird or shameful about this preference.
The key is how you bring it up with a partner. Wait until you have some trust and intimacy established. Then let them know in a casual, confident way, e.g. “I think feet can be really sexy - is that something you might be open to exploring together?” Emphasize it’s just one thing you enjoy, not an all-consuming obsession.
Most open-minded partners will be understanding, even if it’s not their thing. The right person won’t judge you for this. Wishing you all the best in your dating adventures!
