Does it bother you to wear odd socks?

It is extremely rare that I wear odd socks. The ONLY time I would wear odd socks is if I couldn't find a matching pair and had no time to find a pair. Otherwise they MUST be the same. Even bothers me when other people have odd socks on. Do you have an annoying quirk like I do when it comes to odd socks?

If I'm wearing boots, there could be just about anything underneath on my feet.

haha yeah. Boots are friggen awesome. But even then, if I know they aren't matching then it will bother me. Doesn't matter what other people see on my feet. I don't care what they see but it is me that gets bothered.

@VivaLaDani13 Normal what is considered normal to one person would not be considered normal to another person.

your discussion made me laugh. I just cannot think of wearing odd pair of sox. I need the right one and if I'm unable to find the right pair, I will pull out new pair from the stock.

Tell ya what I do. I wear the odd socks around the house. I don't wear the out the door. In the winter I have a collection of socks I wear to keep warmer so I can keep the heat down.

I love those really nice thick fluffy socks to keep feet warm in the winter! So nice. But either I am out the house or in the house, it is just me personally not wanting to wear odd socks. I really need them to be matching. It would bother me.

I buy several pairs exactly the same and pair them up as they get washed but it doesn't really bother me. I wouldn't wear odd socks though.

@VivaLaDani13 It is my firm belief that washing machines take socks and turn them into wire coat-hangers!

I have all sorts. Whites, pinks, greys, I think some with dots. And because I am not exactly organised....which is weird for my OCD, I often lose the matching sock and have to ruin my room even more just to try and find it lol.

I generally buy the same type of socks in white but even if I didn't I don't think it would bother me to wear odd socks as long as my feet were warm.

@Marcyaz The only time I really hate wearing socks in general is when I am in bed. My feet get too hot then.

i don't wear socks every day. i'm sure i'll notice them, but shrug them off. i guess the only way to ensure they always match is to buy several pairs of the same color and design.

Not particularly, but it can happen, especially in bad light when colours are similar. Usually I dry clothes on the line if possible. That's the best time to pair off socks in bright sunlight and stick them together.

@VivaLaDani13 Shame on you complaining about that nice hot Australian sunshine! You could always use an umbrella to keep the sun off you.

I have actually noticed some of my socks are changing colours. Don't like that either really lol I have a load of washing to do and it would be a hell of a lot quicker to dry if I put it out in the sun but it is boiling hot today. I am not going out there.

That drives me NUTS when I can't find the matching sock. I leave them out of my drawer that way I'll find the matching one with the next round of laundry. If I don't find it I throw the sock that I have out. I guess they actually sell sock packs now that don't have a matching sock, it's like a new fad or something.

@VivaLaDani13 Girl we are totally on the same wave lol! I'm actually a babysitter and I do their laundry and I didn't know the whole thing about the unmatching socks fad, so I always put them aside to try and match them up, and then never found the matches lol

(Snort) How about I hate socks? Odd or not. LOL I feel claustrophobic kind of feeling when my feet are covered.

lol I inhaled very deeply when I read that because I know what you mean. I only wear socks when I am wearing my shoes or boots but I am never seen wearing socks around the house and ESPECIALLY to bed. I can not stand socks in bed. I remember when I was little, I wore them to bed and then started to freak out a little and pulled them off quickly. Never known anyone else to feel similar about socks.
