Shoe myth... Or is it?

I was 19 when my first boyfriend bought me my first pair of Loxion Kulca sneakers, you can imagine my excitement. Phela this was the in-brand of that era. Only to have my mom burst my bubble and tell me I should kiss the relationship goodbye. Why? I ask. You never buy your loved one shoes EVER! That is a sing that they are not going to stay long with you and the shoes have just paved the way for the grand escape. I'm torn.... Do I give them back cause I don't want to part with him or do I keep them and hope for the best? Mhhh... What's a girl (who loves shoes nogal) to do?

I give myself two days before wearing them to see what would happen. He is still the same adoring boyfriend who can't take his eyes off me. If I wear them is he going to stop loving me? Have I lost him forever? These sneakers are to-die-for. For the love of shoes this pair just could not stare at me any longer. It had to be worn. I could sense it vying for my attention whenever I got stuck and not sure what shoe to pick. These babies were a perfect match for my blue track suit. I wore the shoe, a year later the man walked, was it because of the shoe? Ah! What the hell it fit and yes I went and got it in two other colours.......
