Recently, I have taken to wearing nicer clothing because I like the way they look on me. It feels good to be able to dress the way you like.
@ButtWorldsMan Absolutely, yes.
@DoubleD A benefit of being a free man.
@DoubleD i tried that in the past. i love nice clothes but it was everything but relaxing. you need to combine colors properly. you need to iron everything. you need to wear different things every day. the care required for the clothes and to ensure nothing was dirty, sweaty, creased.. was just not worth it. i said fuck that and now i only wear sportwear. I don't iron shit, don't care about looks, only comfort. i would wear flipflops and shorts to a meeting to sign $1B deal instead of a suit.
@DoubleD also, if you dress well, you stand out, people will notice. i do not like attention. i prefer to be invisible and just blend in with the crowd. so you also need to be that type of person to dress well.
@Justicar I used to care only about comfort and practicality as well. I used to wear cargo pants and cotton t-shirts essentially everywhere.
I can't explain my desire for nice clothes over sports wear any more than I can explain my taste for figs over melons, despite the fact that such taste does require more attention like occasional dry cleaning and regular ironing. Good clothing feels amazingly comfortable as well.
When I go grocery shopping in a suit, if I do standout, no one comments.
@DoubleD like working out, you do it to be satisfied with yourself.
