so sorry shoes
I love to buy shoes but every time I get a new pair of shoes that I find myself wearing a lot I start to feel like my old shoes become depressed and I’ll end up wearing them out of sheer guilt.

I too am a shoe person. My earliest shoe memories are of me putting my new shoes away with the old ones. I would introduce the new to the old. I still have pride putting ht enew shoes away with the old.
Now I apologize when I have to throw them out.
I do this with clothes. Once I buy new things that I REALLY love, I suddenly start not loving anything else I own, even though I loved it the day before. Then I stop wearing them, and think that I look bad in them, just because I suddenly have something better.
I tend to do the same – I usually use one pair of shoes for months, and when I buy new ones I send the old ones to a pile of never again used shoes… And yet I can’t make up my mind to throw them away…
I do this, too. I also feel guilty for neglecting my old shoes. I also feel bad for throwing them away, which is why I have an awful lot of old, worn shoes. I bought a new pair of running shoes that I found myself wearing a lot and recently, I decided to start wearing the old ones again, to let them know I haven’t forgotten about them. They have holes, there’s harly any tread left and they’re covered in scuffs and grass stains. But I’m sure they feel better now, because I’ve shown them that they’re still useful.
I don’t feel sorry for them but I hate throwing them away as there is usually a tiny, tiny bit of wearability left in them. What I do now is take them to the clothes bank that way they can decided if they’re useless or not and I don’t feel guilty about disposing of them.
