AIBU to actually be giving this (foot worship) more consideration than I should....

[NotQuiteThatDesperateYet]

NC for this for obvious reasons...
I heard a rumour that some people will pay cash for old really smelly and grim shoes so I thought I'd list some on eBay, just to see what happened and we're pretty skint right now...
I've received a message offering me £200-£400 to meet a guy and let him "worship" my feet. I was intrigued but politely declined (but by responding I appear to have given him reason to persist).
He said if the reason I declined was because I was concerned for my own safety I could bring someone and he'd bring formal id & hand it over to my friend.
I replied saying no, it's because I'm married & it'd be like cheating on my husband. He then suggested I bring my husband and that foot worship involves nothing sexual on my part, that I'd be fully clothed bar my feet!

AIBU to actually be giving this serious thought?! I mean in reality I won't do it although £400 would come in handy right now but I can't get it out of my head.

I've discussed it with my husband and he just can't believe anyone would even want to go near my smelly, horrible feet. So yeah thanks for that DH.

Any less sordid money making suggestions are gratefully welcomed.

I automatically assumed that for £400 he would be expecting to wank on your feet. Is that wrong? What the hell else would "foot worship" mean for that price? I may have met too many unsavoury types in my chequered past

So, I have actually done this.
Yes, sexual for him (obviously), but not for me. He'll probably want to finish on your feet, if he's able to with nerves. Or take pictures to do it later.

Easy money though! And if he's a decent guy, it could be a repeat thing., both sales and visits.

Yanbu.
If he's committed to ensuring your comfort and safety, then I see no red flags.

I'm not seeing anything really on eBay.

Is there some sort of 'code word'?

I wanted to see how much they were going for

The code words on EBay are "well worn" and it is definitely a thing.
When I was younger I had an ex DP who used to foot-worship me. He was literally happy for me to sit in the corner of the lounge pissing about on the computer whilst he lay under the desk and played with my feet.

Foot worshippers tend to like to lick and suck the toes, lick the soles, have the other person smother their face with their feet etc.

I honestly can't remember where I learnt this from - perhaps nosing on Fetlife years back.

I'm going to try well worn shoe selling.im flat footed so shoes rarely last long.

foot worship involves nothing sexual on my part

It's not sexual for on your part ... but it is very sexual for him. For that reason, if it were me I would massively uncomfortable with it. Even if you're fully clothed and never touch him, you are still essentially providing a sexual service to him as you are there for the sole (no pun intended) purpose of sexually exciting him.

However, it's a completely personal choice, isn't it? I've absolutely no problem with women who do provide that sort of service if they're OK with it ... but I do think some of them are a little bit in denial about what it is they're doing.

However, I agree with SleepFreeZone - I think he's just sitting there messaging you and getting a boner over it without any intention of meeting you and giving you money. There are plenty of women who advertise that type of service and who would fulfil his exact specifications of what he wants, would have every type of footwear, would let him take it as far (or not) as he wants etc.

I have literally just listed a pair of my honking one year old stinking falling apart slippers. If they sell at all I will be amazed!!!

Just had a nose on Ebay with 'well worn' in my search. You can tell the ones where the pictures are aimed at that market!

A whole sub-internet thing I've never heard of. goes to check hall cupboard for old shoes

Hmm. Lots of well worn shoes, very few with any bids...
Is it an imaginary thing?

Someone has bid already!!! Madness!

Well worn stockings seem to be a thing too. £9.50 for a pair! One seller wrote "additional photos if required", so clearly knows her market! Who knew?!

I've got footless tights !! Bet that would turn into a frenzy !!!

Do it Empress! As a social experiment of course

Having someone wank over your feet is not worth £400 in my opinion, as I'm pretty sure that's what he will want to do for £400 not just admire them from affair.

Afar not affair obviously :)

How the hell do you get into this business?
