      I very seldom wore one growing up. My dad had showed me when I was 10-12, but I never learned how. About 15 years ago (i'm 39 now), I was asleep and had a dream about how to tie one. When I woke up that morning I grabbed one that was hanging in my closet and gave it a try and got it on the first try, just like in my dream. CRAZY!!!

        I wear one about twice a year. The Pratt is my knot of choice but I can tie all of them. I had semi wealthy grandparents and they insisted that I learn from an early age.

          Nope

          I cannot tie one, never cared to learn. I own two, for special occasions. One was my great grandfathers tie (he only owned one) and the other I got in high school.

          I do not trust anyone that wears a tie to work: nothing good ever comes from dealing with them. Lawyer, salesman, banker, etc.

                exactly, i've worn them the better part of my life . . . did pave the way for me to be sitting in my office in a pull over and flip flops.


                All my employees are in suit and ties

                  I learned early in my AF career.

                  I wear a clip-on now.

Wearing a tie has become so uncommon, people look at me weird when I walk in a convenience store or whatever while wearing one...

                    It is weird that folks think ties are odd to me.

                    I knew before I got out of high school..........just common stuff for me and my brother!

                      This is me as well. Have known how since I was a boy. Told my wife she better not bury me in one either.

                        Have about 30 more in the closet...I actually enjoy wearing mine most days.
                        That is good information.

                        Now I know where to go to get someone to tie mine for me if the occasion ever arises to wear one.

                              I was probably around 30-32 when I started wearing/learning how to tie a tie. I do not have to wear a tie, however I began to realize that most of the men that I respect, admire, and consider to be my mentors/roll models wear them. So I started?
