I've always worn glasses, and I always needed a tissue to clean my glasses with, but I had runny noses and remember being caught without a tissue once, and it was embarrasing. So when I was a teenager I went to having a box of tissues in my room, and every morning I would fold two mansize tissues into a small square and put them in my pocket. I soon realised though, that these became crumpled and ripped as they say in my pocket, and those days when I didn't need to clean my glasses or blow my nose, I would have wasted two tissues. I already knew I had this fetish, and didn't want to waste my tissues, so I started using some hankies that my Gran had bought me, but never used. I knew then, that I wouldn't go back to carrying tissues in my trouser pockets.
