warning: you may hate me for this entry
this is going to sound ridiculous, but i can pretty much guarantee you cannot relate.
i wear a size 5 shoe. this is a REAL women's size 5, which corresponds to a kids' size 2.5 and supposedly a men's size 3. you have no fucking idea how insanely impossible it is for me to find shoes. especially now that Payless shoes no longer fit me. don't ask how this happened, because i haven't a fucking clue. i guess there are some solutions to my dilemma:
1. wear cushions/stuff your shoes.
i do this, but it is sooo uncomfortable & i don't want to ruin my feet.
2. wear kids' shoes
have you seen kids' shoes? they're fucking horrible! it's like the designers hate kids! not to mention they are far from age-appropriate in 90% of cases.
3. buy your shoes online
i can't try them on if i buy them online. there's no fucking way i'm buying shoes without trying them on. maybe a shirt, skirt, pants, or dress, but not shoes b/c sizes vary like crazy between brands, and as of now, i know of no brand that carries shoes that fit me.
4. amputate your feet.
this is the most painful solution, but it is increasingly appearing to be the most effective one to me. my feet are not going to grow, i cannot go barefoot in most places, and foot enlargement surgery does not exist to date. if i lose the feet, i lose the problem. if my prosthetic feet are size 6, i will be in the clear.
