If so, do you just not wear them or do you put up with them?

Not itchy but they do become uncomfortable if I have them in for any length of time.

YES. And it sucks. Because it always happens when I’m working out. So. I have to stop everything, and wrestle with them…

Only when they start whispering.

No. My big problem is that I seem to have a nonstandard sized ear hole in my left ear because regardless of which size adapter I use, the left ear bud is always slipping out. By the way “Nonstandard Ear Hole” would be a great band name.

What I can get after enough time though is a sort of discomfort if I’ve worn them for a long time. I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s almost like the ear hole just decides “Okay, this has been here long enough. Take it out! Now!” It’s not like it hurting anything, but it’s just uncomfortable.
