DEAR DEIDRE: AS soon as I put my flip-flops on when we’re on holiday my wife flips out.
I’m 70 and she is 65. We’re going on holiday to Greece in two weeks and I know she’s going to start moaning the moment I get my feet out.
Whenever she sees them she says “no one wants to see that” but I don’t understand what else I’m supposed to wear when I’m sitting next to a pool or on a beach.
I do have a couple of broken toes and dry skin but they’re not that bad.
I’m fed up with the same argument on every holiday we go on.
Every problem gets a personal reply from one of our trained counsellors.

DEIDRE SAYS: Some people do have a genuine fear of feet – podophobia – but your wife sounds like she just doesn’t like yours.
Have a talk to her and ask her exactly what her issue is – is the problem something you can resolve?
My support pack Standing Up For Yourself should help you to approach your wife on this issue.
You both deserve to feel comfortable so that you can enjoy a holiday.
