I think your feet just become used to it. In my final year at school it was a uniform requirement to wear shoes with a heel. Mine were about 5-6 inches high and I had no more pain after a few weeks. Now I can put on any heels and I'm fine. Try practising when you are at home watching T.V or when you wash the dishes or clean your room or something like that. Before you know it you will be gracefully gliding along.
Good luck and don't over do it...remember baby-steps (",)

Try nice gel pads for your shoes. They make them slightly more comfortable (all drugstores have them).
Also, if you work at an office or something bring a pair of comfortable shoes w/ you. Then, when you're just at your desk, slip on the comfy shoes. When you have to run an errand or something, wear the heels.
When you walk around your house, walk on your tiptoes. That will get you more used to wearing heels.
Indulge and pamper your feet with a pedicure (scrub, lotion, etc.) every night. The better condition they're in, the better they'll feel in the shoes.
You could also try kitten heels. They're just as cute, but lower (sometimes only 1/2 inch or less).
Good luck! Remember: flats can be cute too. Ballet flats, etc. can be stylish.

I think the best method is to ditch the idea that wearing stalks on the back of your feet to distort your centre of gravity, make it impossible to move quickly, cause your hips to sway unnaturally, and thereby make you literally at a physical disadvantage, is anything other than metaphorical Chinese foot-binding designed to create the appearance in women of vulnerability and sexually-provocative movement. Wearing high heels doesn't make anyone a real woman. It does make some chiropractors and some podiatrists and some chiropodists and some other guys somewhere very happy indeed with the size of their wallets, and stuff. Resist! :) (I offer this as friendly advice - listen to your protesting feet! :)) Having said ALL that, I saw an advert in the press somewhere yesterday, that they are bringing out a high heel allegedly as comfy as a trainer, so if you want to go in that direction, then I think you call has been answered.

Some women get so used to it they can't walk in shoes unless they're heels. I suggest that you practice starting with some low heels and then go up from there. I never really had a problem with heels. There was one time that I had to run with them on but it wasn't too bad. Dancing all night with heels on during prom was something tho. By the time we were at my friend's after party at around 2-3, all the girls threw off their heels to the side. Suddenly the men grew taller.

Used to wear six inch platforms when I was 17 and still wonder to this day how I never broke my neck doing so, the pain in my back and the weak ankles let me know it was stupid to wear such high heels, they have those gel filled pads in boots chemist that you can slip inside your high heels for comfort, but been a lady isn't about the size of the heel you wear its how you wear it that matters and whether its an inch or a 4 inch high heel it still don't make you a lady, wear what you feel comfy in and beggar the stress on the legs.

Well, I wear high heels sometimes now and im 13. I would suggest starting small, liek start with a kitten heel (about half an inch) and work your way up gradually. Thats will probably make it easier and stop some of the pain.

buy a foot spa so that when you do take them off you relax your feet. sorry hun but i've never found a way to wear high heels comfortably. perhaps try building up the height and stability of heels eg try 3 inch wedges then 4 inch wide heels ect...just don't buy ill fitting shoes my mum has a little toe that is so scrunched up over the next toe it actually sticks up and out of most sandals now, from wearing pointed toes.

I feel your pain, I know exactly what you're talking about.
Most high heels have a pointy toe, our feet aren't shaped that way. So, they start to hurt.
I found that taking a little bit of toilet paper, and wadding it into the pointy part of the shoe, helps tremendously!
I went from barely being able to tolerate wearing them after half an hour, to being able to wear them comfortably, for hours.

If you watch a dancer you will see that they move primarily on the ball of their foot. You have to have good balance to do this. Use the "heel" as the guide or stabalizer but only touch the floor lightly with the heel. BTW: This takes a lot of practice for some.

You have to invest $$$ for a high heal that you can stand for more then an hour. Not all expensive shoes are comfortable, but I you can't expect to spend $50 on a high quality heal. Try different brands until you find one that works well with your foot...
And no matter what, keep in mind it will never feel like flip flops.
