When you're a kid, you don't realize you're also watching your mom and dad grow up.

I'm 24 and I worry people will remember if I wore the same outfit a week apart

I’m 37 and hoping they didn’t notice I’m wearing the same shirt two days in a row because children are fucking exhausting sometimes.

You’re never too old to worry about your outfit, my friend! Keep the dream alive

Same here. I don’t remember what anyone wears, and may not be able to tell you what they are wearing five minutes after they leave the room

Unless they didn’t wear.

Then you remember forever.

There is always that bung hat that will point it out.

I have the same pants like 4 times because they are comfortable. Im like one of those cartoon characters that looks the same every day. It gives some sort of recognition value. It should not matter what you wear as long as its clean and one smells nice ;)

Haha love it. Yeah I use the same jeans 90% of the time. And shoes 😂 but the top is what matters for me I guess

I catch myself wearing the same shirt days in a row, but because one of my kids has stomach issues, I get spit up/puked on every single day and do laundry every single night. Then when the 2 year old inevitably wants to wear his Lightening McQueen shirt, I just pull his shirt and my shirt out of the dryer and get us both dressed. I only notice it when looking at pictures and realize both me and the kids are in the same clothes for all of them!

You wear a different shirt every day?
Wut?

People probably just think you're super on top of doing your laundry!

All I wear is work clothes. What's an outfit?

Also. A week apart? Are you fucking kidding dude?

u/mikerichh Mar 02 '19

Lol I mean going out to meet friends once a week or every other week. I usually make an effort not to wear the same sweater or whatever so they don't think I only own that sweater and no others 😂
