9 Reasons Why Having Big Feet Sucks, But At Least I Save Money

I've had huge feet all my life and have been told all of my life "girl, you got big feet." I am finally at the point where I can embrace my Bigfoot life, even with all the challenges it brings.

1. Almost every store has just a few options in my size of anything.

Any time I'm looking for a pair of new shoes, I go straight to my size and am usually disappointed by the amount of granny shoes leftover and the lack thereof of anything else. It's such a shame.

2. Some stores don’t even have my size.

Sometimes I really like a certain pair of shoes, and they don't have any left in my size or never even ordered them in my size.

3. If they do, it’s a struggle to find anything I even like.

I feel like the level of cuteness when it comes to shoes goes by shoe size. The larger the shoe gets, the less appealing to the eyes.

4. I can’t borrow shoes for formal events because none of my friends wear the same size as me.

If I don't have anything to wear to a formal event, I almost always have a super hard time finding anything and usually end up slumming some of my old pumps that don't even really match. I can't just call a girl up and ask to borrow any. Not that I go to many formal events, but a girl would like to have options.

5. I can’t lend out shoes for anything because, again, none of my friends wear the same size as me.

Being in a huge Greek life school, a lot of my friends are in sororities and are constantly going out to date parties and asking me to borrow shoes, and I literally can't help them out ever.

6. Sitting in the back seat of small cars is hard because sometimes my feet get stuck.

I hate sitting in back seats because I literally have to dig my feet out from under the seats in front of me to get out of the car and sometimes trip on the way out.

7. In college classrooms, I always hope to get a front row seat because legroom is a must.

It honestly breaks my heart every time I get to class late and have no other option but to sit on some row that isn't the front row. Between my bag and my feet, I just get so cramped.

8. My feet are always getting stepped on when I go to concerts.

I never wear sandals to concerts anymore because my feet get stepped on so much. Like really?

9. I hate getting pedicures because I feel like they’re judging my feet.

I know they probably don't care, but I always feel like everyone who does my pedicures is just repulsed at how huge my feet are, so I hardly ever get them.

10. I will say though that I save a lot of money not buying shoes.

While all of you with cute, little feet have an endless assortment of shoe temptation, me being limited might actually be a good thing because I never have to talk myself out of buying the really cute Steve Maddens or whatever they are.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
