I think that we can all agree that sleeping is good for more than just the body. It’s also good for the soul to not feel like you’ve had an anvil dropped on you in the most comedic Tom and Jerry fashion.
What is even better is if we actually get a chance to improve upon the quality of our sleep. You know, like wearing comfortable attire. Like pajamas? Something that is specifically (more or less) designed to make sleeping good?
Not everyone thinks that way, unfortunately. In fact, they don’t agree with that so much that they decide to throw a fit about it.
Because the body can rate our sleep with how much it aches, it’s within anyone’s interest to make sure we do it right

So, when we try to slip into pajamas, but our partner says to wear something uncomfortable, it spurs a conflict really quickly

This particular conflict, however, did not end as the guy got dumped for his tantrums, insecurity, and lust for control
A woman turned to Reddit to figure out if she was wrong to prefer her pajamas over what her boyfriend gifted her to wear for their sleepover.
For context, it was a boyfriend of two months, stuff was serious, and they agreed on a sleepover. The boyfriend got OP some lingerie, which she liked, but it was simply uncomfy. Most lingerie is.
After some time, when both were falling asleep, she slipped into her pajamas—boxers and a t-shirt—and the guy started demanding she sleeps with the lingerie. After explaining herself, the guy showed his true color as a hot mess.
Apparently, while they were together, she was to not dress like a man. He also blurted out that “all I want is for my woman to look like a woman because I’m not gay”. This alone signaled his insecurity, homophobia and general control-freakishness. Needless to say, they’re no longer together.
The post was originally taken down but preserved in another subreddit where folks thought the woman was in the clear
The original post did not stick around long enough for it to receive an official verdict. As per rule #8 of the Am I The A-Hole community, low quality posts were not allowed. However, judging from the relevant comments that remained preserved in the repost, folks went with NTA on this one.
Commenters called the boyfriend controlling and manipulative, suggesting he tried the lingerie himself. Maybe that would change his opinion? Though, nobody really cared about it after the stunt he pulled.
It’s in the comments that we also find out he also fat-shamed her, despite her just being tall and him quite likely not understanding that he simply bought the wrong size. So, commenters quickly added misogynistic to the list of adjectives to describe the guy.
There’s more than one reason to ditch clothes that don’t fit, and it’s not just discomfort
The most obvious reason not to wear clothes that don’t fit is that they are simply uncomfortable. Clothes should not pinch, pucker, cut or otherwise hurt you. Besides the pain, there’s also the physical exertion required to shove something that is undersized onto your body—don’t put yourself through that kind of torture.
Besides that, clothes that don’t fit you might also take a toll on you mentally. They might make you feel sub-par, less confident and uncomfortable with your own body. This has potential to perpetuate a false notion that your body needs to change to fit the clothes. But if you’re a physically healthy human being, then it’s the clothes that should go.
If anything, only having clothes that fit you might just help you maximize your closet space. That, in turn, also means that you’re decluttering and that is a good thing in and of itself. Less clutter means less stress and anxiety, increased productivity and concentration, positively impacting your sleep and even resolving risks of asthma and allergies.
So, the moral of the story: nothing good happens from clothes that don’t fit.
What are your thoughts on any of this? What are some of your clothes that don’t fit stories, or mayhaps this comes as a reminder to declutter your closet, in which case, share your tactics! Or not, it’s a free comment section!
