8 pairs?
I have one for the summer and boots for the winter, but now I think I have two extra somewhere. My parents always buy that. Really girls from the office gave me clothes that didn't fit anymore because they thought I was so poor. I just don't care.

Let me clarify:

I wear three of the eight on a regular basis. The others are just there for when I need something fancy. I have two pairs of flip-flops and my ankle boots that I typically wear during the week. Lol.

Lol oh I love flip flops. I had to buy shoes lately when I had a wedding, maybe I also have 8 but they're all lost somewhere.

Yeah. Flip-flops in Florida is standard, so...:D

Nah, I just wear mine until they fall apart. Literally. That's the only reason I got a second pair, because my other pair fell apart on me...while I was walking down a sidewalk, in a neighborhood, for all to see... But then I had a legit reason to just go barefoot, which I prefer above all.

Ugh, flip flops. :|

I dont mind a woman Im dating wearing them, as long as she doesnt mind me playing with her toes.

For me though, never try to make a bull wear them. I hate thems. I like slip on shoes better. I are tender footed.... stab me, shoot me, burn me. I don't care..... just dont make me walk shoeless or with sandles over gravel or similar. (Sandles don't block gravel or whatever from getting under foot.)

Hmm
Well ive never had really looong hair, like girly girls do. And i dont care for make up or high heels although I can walk in them, i choose not to. And jewellery and earrings? Forget that. A guy gives me a necklace and I go, what am I suppose to do with it? Thanks for the ball and chain?!

Manly things.
Sometimes I burp really loud and dont apologise. Its a chinese thing though. It means you appreciate your food.
I think i might have asked a guy out at one stage, im sure it wasnt his idea. Thats not a girly thing to do, you suppose do wait to be asked.

Also I have driven on a date cos the guy I was going out with had no car, but did find out he was a criminal, so that dont count. Any car he would have had would have been stolen anyway.

That's weird. I see men wear all sorts of necklaces, bracelets, and rings all the time and I never get the impression that they're gay.

I loathe Valentine's Day. Not that all man necessarily hate V-Day, but I believe most men at least don't put nearly as much stock into that day as women do. ...Seriously...that day is so dumb. Even as a kid I thought it was stupid.

That's really the only big thing that comes to mind. Besides that, I am very tomboy-ish, which I've always been, and I wear
very little makeup and generally couldn't care less about any makeup/perfume products at all. I don't fuss over babies, I rarely get pedicures, I only shop for clothes when I actually 'need' new stuff (although I buy finer things when I do shop - hehehe), and I have...like...8 pairs of shoes. How many women only have 8 pairs of shoes? Lol.

I also loathe crafts and sewing. I can't even sew a stupid button back on, so when that happens I pull a "Hey, Mom. Can you fix this for me?"

Hmmm...only 8 pairs? Why so moderate? lol. Actually, I think most guys would love that about you. Most guys I've talked to can't fathom why anyone needs more than one or two pairs of dress shoes, haha.

I never bother with manicures/pedicures either.

I can completely turn off my emotions when I job needs to be done and I almost never cry for an audience. Great trait in a crisis but since nobody actually knows how weak I feel inside, not so great for a support system afterwards when I finally allow myself to fall apart. I actually got criticized after my husband died for not being a better support system for my brother-in-law because he was hurting too and I was doing so well.

Shoes...I don't "get" shoes. They should be comfortable...that is the only requirement I have. I have my nursing shoes for work and a pair of tennis shoes for the rest of the time. I have a brown suede and a block brush pair of shoes identical to my nursing shoes if there is a reason to wear something nicer (like a work event that doesn't require scrubs). If I were to wear a dress...something I have done less than 3 times since my husband died, I'd probably have to borrow a pair from my daughter.
