Attraction is feet is very common and nothing to be ashamed of. According to a 2006 study that examined 381 fetish groups online, “Among those people preferring body parts, feet and toes were preferred by the greatest number, with 47% of those sampled preferring them. Among those people preferring objects related to body parts, 32% were in groups related to footwear (shoes, boots, etc.).”¹
It isn’t hard to see that the foot fetish is common, all it takes is a simple web search and a lot of websites and forums come up (maybe that’s even why you’re here right now!).
There are many possible reason why people are attracted to feet, which can include: biology, humiliation, domination, etc. ²

Foot fetishism (Wikipedia)
“Foot fetishism, also known as foot partialism or podophilia, is a pronounced sexual interest in feet.[1][2] It is the most common form of sexual fetishism for otherwise non-sexual objects or body parts.[3]“
What’s a Foot Fetish? (WebMD)
“People with a foot fetish, or podophilia, are sexually excited by feet. They get sexual pleasure from feet and may consider them a necessary part of sexual gratification.”
A brief overview of foot fetishism. (Psychology Today)
“Foot fetishes can be very specific, and the individual dimensions and features are critical to the podophile. They are usually interested in the size (of the foot, the toes, the heel), the shape (e.g., flat-footed, high arches), the adornments (e.g., footwear, jewelry, toe ring, ankle bracelets, etc.), embellishments (nail varnish, tattoos, pedicure, etc.), non-visual sensory features (e.g., the touch, smell), and—perhaps most importantly—the type of interaction (massaging, touching, kissing, tickling, licking, sucking). There are also sub-dimensions of the fetish, including those who are really into footwear rather than the feet (i.e., retifism, from the French novelist Nicolas Edme Rétif, who wrote extensively about his own footwear fetish), or those that like naked feet as apposed to footwear adornments (i.e., aretifism).”
