In today's Miss Manners column, advice columnist Judith Martin responds to person with foot pain whose friend has little compassion for. You can send your questions to Miss Manners through her email, dearmissmanners@gmail.com.DEAR MISS MANNERS: I have a foot condition that requires me to wear orthopedic shoes. If I don’t, it’s very painful. My husband and I have a no-shoes rule in our house, and some of our friends do as well. I have had slippers made so I can be comfortable in my own home.
GENTLE READER: That is some friend you have. She doesn’t trust your word when you say that your slippers are clean, and she would rather you be in pain all evening than risk dirt on her floor. Miss Manners has heard from other people with their own reasons for not removing their shoes indoors. She hopes you are as tolerant of them as one would expect others -- especially friends -- to be of you.
