How To Judge A Man By His Socks
Some people say you can judge a man by the shoes on his feet. I like to take it one step further. I believe that you can tell a lot about a person's character and what type of man he's going to be just by the style of socks he chooses to wear.
Let's take a look at a man who prefers crew socks. He is a man's man. He is passionate about maintaining his physique and playing or watching sports. While learning about art history or western civilization does not interest him, he still lends an attentive ear if that is what you're enthusiastic about. Most of the time he doesn't like to discuss emotional things, but when you're in need he'll be by your side. He has a macho way about him that makes you feel secure and protected. A romantic date planned by him is likely to consist of something catered. He might need a little help setting the mood, but once there, his mind and eyes are focused on you. Since he's not an artistic kind of guy, you can count on a Hallmark card for your anniversary.

If a man is decked out in dress socks, he is business savvy and has a knowledge of exotic things. His ideas about romance are more of the classic sort, such as dinner at a fine restaurant and waltzing by candlelight. Though he doesn't wear his emotions on his sleeve (or on his socks for that matter), he isn't too shy to recite a poem to you. His compliments come from the heart and he never fails at making you feel like a lady. When he's off on a business venture somewhere, you can expect flowers to be delivered to you. He wants you to know that you're in his thoughts.

A guy who dons thermal socks may be rough around the edges, but he's one with nature. He isn't afraid to show his softer side. He's likely to romance you by a campfire beneath the stars. He thrives on the idea of being able to take care of someone and nurture them by working diligently. His family is very important to him. The ultimate gift from him would be something he wrote or made for you.

A good way to describe a man who opts for ankle socks is carefree and loving. He appreciates the simple things in life. He likes sports but will give up the football game to spend time with you. Fancy things are not a priority with him. He'd rather have a quiet night at home with you instead of being in a crowded area. If he has a game to go play, he wants you there cheering him on. A barefoot walk on the beach while holding your hand is ideal for him.

What about mismatched socks? There's no other way to explain it: comedy is his drive! He believes that laughter is the best medicine. He is full of surprises and always searching for the perfect opportunity to pull a prank on you, or one of your friends. There's rarely a quiet moment when it comes to a romantic date. He is likely to make a joke in serious times, though it is always with good intentions. He opts for stand-up comedy tickets, an amusement park, or a weekend in Vegas. Don't be too surprised if he leaves you silly love notes around the house, or if he sends you on a wild goose chase in search of a date destination. Though it may seem like he's always trying to be the center of attention, really he cares about showing you a good time.

Be cautious of a man who dresses in holey socks. At first it will feel nice to be needed by him. However, it becomes apparent rather quickly that he relies on you to make him happy. He has a lot of issues and you'll soon learn that he's wholly devoted to his own problems.
When we search for a friend or partner we look for someone with similar interests, morals, and ethics. We know that we will have a difference of opinion from time to time, but we can choose to be accepting of one another. Instead of trying to find the perfect person, we should be looking for the person that suits us the best.
My ideal pair of socks feels soft against my feet, but will still remain sturdy if I decide to do some running. Which type of sock would you be most comfortable with even through all the washing, wearing, and tearing? Next time you're out shopping hit the sock aisle. You may just snag yourself a great pair of socks.

I like ankle socks or toe socks =) Though I'm not sure if you can really judge a guy or anyone by their socks...that's not really how it goes....but whatever you believe in.
though I'm guilty of mismatched socks from time to time..lol
men wear socks depending on the occasion. if we're going to the beach, chances are we'll be styling in our sandals, sockless. if we're working in an office, we'll most likely be required to wear dressy socks, however, not every man who works in an office is business savvy. and then there are men who don't work in an office, yet they're business savvy. just saying... :)
but yeah, if it's true that you can judge a man by his sock, then it should work the other way around. just by knowing someone's character, moral standard, etc, you should be able to determine what type of sock a man would wear. now what type of sock do you think i would wear? :P
The Joy of Socks.
Excuse me while I go check out his socks. Ha.
haha my bf wears girl socks ... /mismatched socks, i guess. lol its pretty funny.
the assessments are completely unrelated to the socks... o_0
really...:(
Sense. This blog makes none.
@Jal_Phoenix@xanga - Haha, truf. I agree.
Um...no?
My husband wears ankle socks, and I would have to pull his teeth out to get him away from a football game. And the only time he ever goes barefoot is in the shower.
@Jal_Phoenix@xanga - Agreed. First, it's shoes. Now, it's socks. WTF.
yeah my boyfriend totally fits the description of the ankle socks. lol.
Ankle socks describe me well. I wear them.
Oh my God, I LOVE this.
My last guy was thermal socks - and I don't just think it was because it was winter. haha.
all of what you said was so true about that one. :)
I don't know any men who buy their own socks. Actually.
Haha, my boyfriend wears ankle socks and it described him perfectly.
This is as bad as zodiac signs. It doesn't mean anything... I hope this wasn't serious.
amusing, but far from truth.
lol, interesting post. I guess it could be true for some, but what if someone bought him those socks for christmas? haha
you neglected to talk about guys with no socks...sandals ftw, baby.
Holy crap, this is scarily accurate.... The hole-y ankle socks? Fits my bf to a tee.
lol i don't notice socks unless his pants are too short then thats a no-no. but i do notice shoes.. it has something to do about keeping yourself up.
this blog was as bad as wet socks.
I hate all socks.
...No. Just...no. Wrong on virtually all counts. You'd get better mileage by trying to judge men by race.
I mean, honestly? If a man is wearing dress socks when he shouldn't be (e.g. not with dress clothing), he's probably...a tool. If he's wearing thermal socks when he shouldn't be, he's probably...a tool. Holey socks just means he's broke (or it'd better mean he's broke, because dammit, socks come in packs of 6-12 for ~$8 at Costco, FFS, just suck it up and buy some white socks).
By and large, what you'll find is...everyone wears white socks, except businesspeople (who have to wear black). So...socks don't mean jack.
