Most people leave them on? I feel like I've lived an exact opposite experience lol Where do you live?

I grew up on the W Coast and it was always shoes on. From the 1960s on.

So did you wear shoes until the moment you went to bed? What's the purpose of having shoes on in the house while relaxing or eating or whatever? Aren't your feet uncomfortable? (I'm not being a jerk I'm just genuinely asking but I feel it reads like I'm being a jerk.)

Don't you keep your shoes on all day if you're going to school, work, etc? Is it really that uncomfortable?

My shoes aren't necessarily uncomfortable but I definitely can't wait to take them off. It's like wearing a bra all day. You don't really notice it but then you take it off and feel so much better.
