I've been wearing this toe ring for, no shit, five years without taking it off. it's basically the only piece of jewelry i wear ('less you count the beads in my dreadies). It's become such a part of me, I've literally forgotten it was there or anything. The last few days we've been moving a bunch of furniture, and working hard all the time, and on top of that my body's doing other weird things (girl problems, don't ask) that add up to me retaining a whole lot of water, and last night when I took off my shoes, my feet were super puffy and sore! my toe past the ring was purple, and I had to take the ring off with pliers and lube! Now I have this big scary indent thing on that toe, and it hurts! I just hope it heals in a few days so I can put the ring back on 0 I don't feel right w/o it!
the first time i ever had a toe ring, i wore it until the silver literally broke in two! & the same situation for me....i had the scary indention left on my toe! now my poor little toe is still deformed!!! of course i just covered it with another toe ring afterwards btw sis...sorry about your 'girl problems' do you think some dandelion would help with the water retention?
Here's how I feel about toe rings. I don't wear shoes or anything else covering my feet. So why would I want to wrap something around one of my toes? That's almost like a mini-shoe for the toe. And you and hummblebee are living proof that toe rings, just like shoes, can do damage.
awwww.....it's sorta an addiction! i've been wearing them for so long now & honestly it really doesn't feel like a 'mini shoe' they're so small
That's fine. I don't fault anyone for wearing them, in fact I think they look kinda cool in a way. But, they're just not for me. Now, ankle bracelets are a different thing. I do wear those, sometimes one on each ankle. You see, they're not actually on my feet, they're on my ankles.
sounds like you definately like your feet to be free! anklets are nice too....sometimes a little decoration is fun!
