My girlfriend lives with me. I counted this weekend, and she has 108 different pairs of shoes. I'm CONSTANTLY tripping on them because they're laying all over the fuckin' place. We get in arguments about this, but I feel she won't listen to reason. I also think she buys shoes in secret and doesn't tell me because she knows it irritates me..
I own exactly FOUR pairs of shoes. Sneakers, slippers, boots, and dress shoes..
@soundsighted,
Whose money does she spend on the shoes?
@chai2,
Hers. I'm not saying she can't spend her own money, but I've also seen the TV show hoarders, and I think if she didn't have a problem she wouldn't be hiding it. Sometimes there are so many shoes laying around that people have fallen over, or the door has gotten jammed in them. The least she could do is keep them tidy. I bought her a huge fuckin' rack for them, but she just leaves them all over the floor instead, and it's MY house.

Do you share a home or does she live in a home you own?
Who pays for her shoes?
@ehBeth,
^ answered this above. Thanks
@soundsighted,
Well, it's pretty obvious you want to hear from people telling you she owns too many shoes and this is a problem, etc. etc.
So, you've answered you own question.
Next case.
@soundsighted,
Sounds like the problem isn't the shoes.
Best of luck to you.
@chai2,
It's obvious I think she has a problem, but what I'd like to know is is this in the normal range for women? Is 108 pairs (that I know of) normal?
@soundsighted,
Yes, this is a normal range.
I would think seven pairs would be sufficient; one for each day of the week.
@cicerone imposter,
Oh c'mon CI, your sucking all the fun out of this.
@chai2,
How many bras does she own?
Does she leave those laying around too?

I have a friend who took more than that on a three day trip to Vegas. I thought that was a lot, but different things make sense to different people. She doesn't understand why I have several cameras <shrug>
@soundsighted,
Why is this question somehow funny for all?

that's definitely the one Set would start a thread about if he was going to start a thread about any part of my wardrobe.

Ah, I see. My pain is your amusement. Touche.
I realize this sounds funny, but it's causing a lot of problems and I'm worried about her.
