    Guys/girls: if someone has a sex dream about you and tells you, how does it make you feel? Remember this could be (and likely is) someone you’re not remotely attracted to

    I'd be extremely flattered and ask open ended questions in an effort to figure out whether I've accidentally been giving signals of being attracted to this person. I'd hate to lead someone on, especially accidentally.

    guys/girls-

    not so much opinion, but a question i guess

    how many pairs of shoes do you own?
    and how do you store them when you're not using them; like do you just huck em in the closet and forget about them, or do you keep them on a specific shelf in there, or do you keep them in the boxes until you wear them again?

    Oh, Can I file this under the 'confessions / don't judge me' thread?

    Let's see.
    • Dress Shoes - about eight pair
    • Running Shoes - four or five pair
    • Training Shoes - about twelve to fifteen pair
    • Casual Shoes - about eight to ten pairs
    • Cycling Shoes - five pairs (3 Spd /2 Look)
    • Boots - probably about seven pair
    • Sandals - about seven pair

    So, all told, around a total of 50 pair (or more)
    Some tucked in the closet
    Some is clear dedicated shoe storage boxes
    Some in their original cardboard boxes

    Favorites:
    Red Wing Iron Rangers / Campers / Johnston & Murphy Boots / Reebok Trainers / Vans / Ecco Dress Shoes

    The worst thing, of all the shoes I've listed above, probably five or six pairs haven't yet been worn.

    I like shoes.

    You wear sandals? 😟

    Also bonus question and I particularly want to hear from @Motorsheen on this one 😂...

    What kind of cologne do you prefer/wear? 🤷🏽‍♂️

    I'm Xmas shopping for well... Me 🤷🏽‍♂️ and with malls closed have to order online

    Warm weather is usually Versace Man, cold weather I've grown to really like Invictus. I usually go for Eau Fraische. It's supposed to be weaker or whatever, but I find it works all day and is not overpowering in close quarters.

    Ooh. Lets see

    I have winter shoes:

    Hunter quilted rain boots
    Snow boots
    Tall brown suede boots
    Mid height lace-up leather boots
    Short black booties with a heel

    The tall ones go on a peg rack upside down and the shorter ones on a shelf like this

    My summer/dress shoes are mostly sandals, peep toes, and flip flops. A pair of heels and flats, extra running shoes i’m not using.. those go in a shoe storage ottoman thing in my closet

    My adidas, chucks, and the pair I’m wearing today are on a shelf by the door

    They’ve seen better days

    Oh and my slippers 😅

    8rg22w1nr33m.jpg

    They go up where he

    Incidentally there’s half the pair I’m wearing today because it’s Dec 1th and we still have no snow, no braggin

    20-25
    Hiking boots and trail runners have a shelf in the garage.
    Sneakers and casual shoes have a shelf in my closet.
    Dress shoes get tucked under my dresser.

    to the pool, yes

    remember, it's about 1000 degrees here for over half the year.

    I see guys wearing sandals with jeans; it might be okay for them, but I reserve sandals for swimwear.

    fair enough?

    hey this is a great segue into:

    so guys/girls of MFP, what *would* make you cut someone off entirely?

    i'd say let's start with it from the perspective of a lover/former/situationship etc etc, but you can expand it to friends/acquaintances if the first doesn't apply.

    I had a long answer but I think it's easier to just say *general hand gesture * narcissists. I've only really cut off 3 of my family members.

    Everyone - not so much an opinion. How do you use chit chat? When you first enter do you click on the first thread? Go to a certain thread? Lurk to see who's in here? Do you only interact with certain people?

    Im on my phone so I go to the top of my bookmarked threads.. although there is one I say good morning in first.
    I actually can't tell whether my bookmarked threads are in Chit chat or F&G unless I go look at the original post.

    I own maybe five pairs and only really wear two. They stay in a pile by the front door if used frequently and the others are in a shoe hanging thingy on my bedroom door. I'd love to have more shoe game but nothing fits my wide hobbit feet.

    I like Giorgio Armani's Acqua Di Gio for the Summer months & John Varvatos' Vintage for the cooler months.

    Also, look at L'Occitane for some pretty great stuff - https://www.loccitane.com/en-us/

    Funny you should ask.

    Olfactory inputs trigger memories more than visual or auditory inputs.
    I haven't worn cologne all year, because 2020 has been such a *kitten*-show, I don't want any fragrance to remind me of this past year in any regard.

    This is genius.

    I have avoided new music this year for the same reason and also because I’m lazy at finding new music

    i typically just log in and post whatever song is helping me not hate life in the morning and/or see if anybody's posted anything funny anywhere. don't mind interacting with anybody really at this point but i don't go out of my way to talk to most folks either just cause im not sure how many if any are actually real people or just figments of my imagination.

    ETA: What exactly does "insightful" mean to you.

    I ignore most of chit-chat... whatever the "cool" factor is in this group, I don't have it. I prefer conversational threads and the ever so rare serious/thoughtful post. I catch up on wholesome memes a couple of times per month.

    I’ve always liked your posts and enjoy when you’re around

    I usually click on threads that blew up in my sleep. I wanna know what got everyone talking. I usually like this one, what's on your mind mostly for myself to just vent. I generally check most of them but I'm not always monitoring the selfie threads.
    I probably interact with the people I feel most comfortable with but have been trying to branch out. I think that's how others start feeling like outcasts just because they aren't as well known or have much in common with every poster.
    I'm also the person probably doing most of the insightfuls on everyone's posts. It means actually insightful, comically obvious, I think you're being pervy or murderous, 🤷🏻‍♀️. I never mean it in a mean way or picking on anybody.
