How do I identify an 'open and free man'?
Okay, so, how do you identify one of the classic arch types which is an open and free man? Usually there's nothing constricting his foot in the shoe, and it's as open as open can be. It's either a flip flop or a slide or one of those adidas or adidas, you know after sport shoes; it's just he can slip in slip off kick them on kick them off, and they're quick they're easy and they're the best thing next to naked feet. So, with an open and free man you've got to be careful that maybe he likes his relationships open and free too. And so maybe he's all into the summer of love and then come fall things get a little cold and you know he's off you know, I don't know, following the sun. So what you can do, what women can do with an open and free arch type type of man is, as long as in the relationship they create an atmosphere of open and free, then he'll stay because he feels open and free. But, the moment he feels constricted, the moment he feels you know, being pinched a little bit, or that you're shoving his foot into an oxford, he's off to a surf trip in Baja. So with an open and free man arch type women it's very important to remember that if it's a new relationship, most likely his shoes have been along longer than you have. You know, men, open and free men usually keep their shoes long past the point of giving them a proper burial. They'll keep them alive with duct tape, whatever means possible, they'll resuscitate them. And if they have a flip flop blowout and they've had those flip flops for six years, try to be a little understanding, don't say oh honey, they're just shoes we'll get you another pair. He was very attached to that pair and he actually might experience a mild depression until he breaks in a new pair.
