Open Forum: Are You Unable To Get A Date Because Of Your Shoe Fetish?

QC Open Forum

There’s nothing wrong with having a very specific fetish, but what happens when it stars to interfere with your dating? 23-year-old RJ, a participant in MTV’s True Life, shared his story on the difficulties and frustrations he faced being single and the loving he has, perhaps a little too much, for men sneakers. A fetish he claims to have since a very young age. And he does not like any kind of shoe, it must be a very “straight” looking one to get the job done.

“I lean towards the straight, like, jock type of shoe.”
RJ. 23 years old on MTV’s True Life

Much like with express sex, a random hookup to temporarily ease the need of fulfillment for your fetish is not something very difficult to find. But if it’s a relationship what you want and you don’t want to hide your fetish from the beginning, like RJ experienced first hand, then things get a little more complicated. How do you disclose such important, to you, piece of information on a first date? Do you think is best to delay the reveal of your fetish until things are getting serious with your candidate or do you start right off the bat with the confession? Has your shoe fetish get in the way of your dating life? Share your thoughts in the comments!
