Is it normal to go celibate because of unsightly "big toe calluses"?

My previous lines of work, construction and commercial fishing, have caused my big toes to develop surprisingly thick, rough, brown calluses on the tops of each toe due to years of wearing boots and thick socks plus having restless leg syndrome. My ex girlfriend once pointed them out and told me just how nasty they looked and how I'd better get em looked at before "it" spreads to her or the rest of my feet, needless to say we broke up shortly after. At the time I was unaware of the phenomena of "Big Toe Calluses" so I just assumed that it was fungal or something much more nefarious. Been alone the last 4 years partly because I've been dreading exposing my nasty toes and being found repulsive again. To make matters worse, I read on line that wart remover pads would work so I went that route, unfortunately they came back in no time and are unsightlier than ever. Hell, even my cat did a double take at them wondering what was up.

    I've seen guys with some pretty hideous burn scars with some beautiful women. I've known women with terrible Rosacea and other skin conditions in happy relationships.
    It isn't what's on the outside that counts. Your ex was a jerkette.

      I just saw your new profile image. Your hands are very feminine for a man of 69, and nice bracelet.

        It's a watch. You know those things one uses to tell time.
        Funny, several idiots couldn't read the note, but you can see my calloused old hands well enough to determine that?
        Are you a superhero with super sight?

          No. I don't have super sight.

          The note clearly reads "The Gypsy Sailor love you all".

          Also, I'll upload a picture of my smooth and beautiful hands, and yours will be nothing anymore.

          Check my pic.

            How do you like my toy boat in my bathtub that I call the Caribbean? Ain't she a beauty?

    I'd just go see a podiatrist, may be done kind of fungal infection, my wife had problems with her toes we just assumed it was heredity but seen a podiatrist found out it was a fungus

    Vick vapor rub is amazing for all sorts of foot fungal conditions: try that or see a podiatrist and in the meantime, keep your socks on

    Time to pack it in. The note was requested by a user last week, not anytime, but YouAreAFuckingIdiot and have shown your ignorance.
    I believe you have a "nice big house with a lot of assets you see" just like you believe I'm in the Caribbean, so why even bother to say it? You know no one will believe you. At least I posted the pic requested by a user. Prove you own anything beyond your big mouth.
