Had To Buy Shorts


Recommended Posts

Last summer I bought a few new pairs of shorts because my old ones were getting disreputable.  In typical guy fashion, I found shorts that fit my criteria (namely they fit and didn't cost too much) and bought them in several colors.  In a couple weeks my wife and I are going on a cruise, so she insisted that I had to try on my shorts to see if I needed new ones.

 

Well I put them on and insisted that they fit.  She insisted that they were too big.  I said I didn't think so.  She told me to try pulling them down without unbuttoning them.  I did.  I guess they're too big, so last weekend we bought me some new shorts and the old ones will go to Good Will or someplace.

 

Sigh.  Like many men, I HATE shopping for clothes, but I guess I'll be doing so in the near future.

I am like you. I own many belts. I wear shorts with waists as much as 4 inches too big. They won't even stay up without being cinched down. I don't care, I won't buy new ones until the holes in them get big enough that there are issues.

And one day I had to deliver parcels. Without a belt. I spent more time trying to keep myself decent then actually working.

 

Congratulations on the loss.
