Dry off in the shower dammit! I'm tired of getting my socks wet when I go to the bathroom!

this is what I am afraid of, I'll try and see if there's some sort of shower mat like destrekor suggests
You can get a mat or sand the surface down to give you grip.

Floor tiles should be at least a matte finish for grip, but preferably a textured finish.

Many homeowner make the mistake of having glossy glass surface because they think it is easier to clean, thus create a dangerously hard & slippery surface.

IMHO, it is best to lift the tiles and resurface it with the appropriate tiles.

Tip for others before getting into this problem: before installing floor tile in a bathroom, take a sample of it, get it wet, and attempt to walk on it barefoot.
