Just look at pop culture.
Contestants onTheBachelorfall in love withkinda boringleads aftershopping spree episodes.
Enter: the shoe theory.
The theory,which populated FYPs in December, posits that if you gift your S.O.
footwear, you will eventually split up.
Apparently, its a curse that befalls a shoe-gifter/giftee partnership.
One user even linked the theory to a Taylor Swift song.
Taylor swift confirmed the shoe theory is real with this line, userkksparkleprincess captioned a TikTokfeaturing Swifts song Bejeweled.
In fact, its been passed down throughout generations.
The TikToker further explained the superstitions origin.
If youre also in a shoe predicament, having gifted or received a pair, not to worry.
The theory isnt just common in Chinese cultures, but in others as well,including Filipino culture.
Growing up, my own Filipino mom taught me a similar version.
TikTok is a hotbed ofrelationship theoriesand superstitions, so take the theory with a grain of salt.
If you want to play it safe though, maybebuy your partner a bagto make it even.
Thatsalwaysa welcome gift in my book.
