Please write down all the steps to tieing your shoe.
wear sandals and don't worry about it. hehehehe smiles
1. never mind I don't know
Slip ons are great.
Will no one take me seriously? hgrins.
You take one shelace in each hand, cross them over and then make a knot, then make a bow. Is that what you want Nem?
Yes becky that's what I want. However, that's not the way to tie a shoe.
I know there's a joke in here somewhere...
You don't tie a shoe, you tie your laces.
Good response BlackBird.
I was going to say,
1. type google "how to tie shoe laces"
2. Copy the results to your clipboard.
3. Paste the results here.

I have to say that i had difficulty to learn how to do this. I only learned when i was 16.
I don't think it would be helpfull somebody posting instruction here. I can't even describe it myself. What you will probaply need is a very patient person who can sit with you and tell you what to do and you will have to try a lot of times untill you mannage it. I had somebody at school to teach me.
Good luck.
I did try to learn how to tie laces but I cant remember how to. I cant even remember learning but my dad says I did.
lol, i was going to say the exact same thing that kev said. hehehe but arrowing down he beat me to it. hehehehe smiles. shea
I learned when I was ten. My dad found out I didn't know how to tie my shoes, and that my mom always tied my shoes for me.
He got really mad, sat down and taught me in fifteen minutes, and I don't think I'll ever forget. Boy was I scared. <lol>

I remember struggling with tying my shoes at age four, or so, but I can't actually remember when I finally got the hang of it.
Take one lace per hand, cross them over and loop the one in your left hand under the other one--- ah, screw it. Google tying shoes. I know I got the first part right. lol
Okay, assuming that google search has been done, then google can be used for absolutely everything! haha. And good one. You tie your laces, not your shoes.
Tie the laces from the left shoe and the laces from your right shoe together. There. You have your shoes tied.
Hahaha, Dolphin Spirit. I like that.
I learned to tie my shoes when I was about four or five. It was my Grandpa, (my Mom's dad), who taught me how. It's weird, I don't remember learning a lot of that basic kind of thing, but somehow I do remember learning to tie my shoelaces, even though now I just do it without giving it any thought.
Hi,
I didn't learn how to tie my shoes until I was ten or eleven. I had a lot of coordination problems as a kid and didn't even know how to zip up my jacket until I was nine or so. Buttons were hard for me too. Finally, my mom taught me how. It took me weeks and weeks of trying and I thought I'd never get it. I’d cry sometimes, because I was so frustrated. The hard part too, was that my parent’s had a hard time being patient with me. Finally, one day, it just clicked. I never have forgotten how to tie them and even though it’s a small thing, it’s something I take pride in, because I worked so hard at it.
Take Care,

I love how this board no longer really has much to do with the actual question.
I learned to tie my shoes when I was ... five or six. In kindergarten, anyway. I don't actually remember learning, but I know my aid taught me.
my mummy does it for me. cute!
i prefer slip ons anyway
Jesus christ, an adult who still has their mother tie their shoelaces.
I learnt when I first went away to school, at the age of 7. The first things I remember them teaching me in the house in the evening was to tie my shoes, and to do a tie. I had to wear a uniform and so they needed me to be able to dress myself propperly.
I'm shocked. an adult whose mom--- Never mind. It's never too late to learn to do it. I should test myself to see if I still remember how to do it. lol I've been wearing sneakers without laces for quite a while now.
Lol. Wonder if google helped we didn't and I'll not mess up now. hahaha
um, wow i learned when i was five years, and my aid taught me, we had this little little old lady who lived in a shoe toy, and it had her whole family, the toy taught u how to tie one, but it was pretty fricken pointless lol
A bit off topic and yet still having to do with shoes...
A guy I know did maintenance at a place, not all certain
what it was called...a residence where priests reside
This one priest was always requesting one thing or another
Once he wanted the soles of his shoes glued back together
and this maintenance guy was requested to do this for the
priest.. well seems this guy, btw, a neighbor of mine
Anyhow he got tired of always being requested by this one
priest to do jobs he thought this one could do for himself so....
he glued the soles of the shoes to each other
so no longer two shoes with the soles glued back on
Just one clump of a mess of the two shoes stuck to each other.
Guess this priest never requested a job to be done by this
maintenance guy ever again.

i'll actually answer the first question here since i'm a little odd and never learned the normal way to tie my shoes. this is the one and only good thing i took away from the 4 short years george was in my life.
take one lace in each hand. cross them over eachother. this forms the start of making a knot. pull one lace through the hole/circle that was created when you crossed them over eachother. pull both laces until the knot is tight. then make a bow out of each lace. then cross the 2 bows over eachother and tie them into a knot like you did with just the original laces.
hope this actually answers the question. i'm not the greatest at giving instructions, but i at least tried.
i never did learn to tie my shoes. i'm a bit weird, i guess. i did however learn to tie my shoe laces. heheheh smiles!
lol, I got that.
I actually had trouble learning how to tie as well. I could actually make the knots in scouts before I could tie my shoes.
Velcro can be the easy route to go
I thought only girls could by zelcrow shoos? I learned when I was nine. Three hours every other day per week for a few weeks, not to mention practicing on my own time...
JHRadio,
You would be one certainly desired to be had
on one of those all nighter gift wrapping sessions
{like near the holidays or a Birthday Celebration, etc}
What with all that bow tying knowledge.smile

You mean they make shoes with strings in them? How neat, but, then how would you tie the strings?
<lol>

GAH! I'm trying so. so. so very hard not to be my usual caustic self. Life Stream had such a big impact on me and I don't want to give into the temptation to make fun of some people, but... it's. so. hard. (Makes a truly horrible face, holds her hands to her face as if to contain something great and fierce rising within her self, explodes) I swear, no names here, but there is no, absolutely no reason that an intelligent blind person shouldn't be able to tie their own shoes in adulthood. Good lord. I had a bit of difficulty when people tried to show me starting at the age of four and so I insisted on velcrow sneakers. Until I was seven or eight and realized how blind it made me look. My parents were surprised when after three or four years of refusing to learn I approached my father on a camping trip and insisted that he teach me how to tie shoelaces. Thank God I finally got it that time.
I know i know, first before you tie your shoe laces, you hneed your shoes! and the laces...
yay me who learnt with her shoes on at 4.
