Hey everyone. I dont normally post here. I just want opinions from you all on my boyfriend's jacket. He always wears it everytime we go out, but I hate it. I think it looks more like a women's jacket that I'd wear!

What do you all think?
i made him take these lol

Unfortunatly you can't just throw it away and say you must have misplaced it. If he likes it, it's there to stay. HOWEVER, I suggest buying him another jacket that you like, and something he would wear, to cut down on the...white...thing.

At least he could alternate days with the two, and down the road maybe a third, and so on. It's a slow process, but sooner or later cherry Kool-Aid is bound to spill on it.

i dont mind the colour, JUST LOOK HOW SHORT IT IS?

i dont know, my friends say it looks alright, but i need some broader opinions. what do you all think of the length?

LOL!!!I'm sorry, but I feel that if he didn't have that shirt or sweatshirt on, we'd be seeing his belly button. Reminds me of a jacket I saw in Michael Jackson's "Beat It" video. But if he likes it, not much you can do. As suggested previously, maybe you could get him a new jacket that fits better.

Definitely get him something new. The first time I looked at it, it looked okay, but after a second time ... it looks a size too small! Even the sleeves are a little short.
Make sure the new jacket is the right size ... I think it could even be the same style, but fitted correctly and *a different fabric,* oh gosh. Good luck

That's what I was thinking! Wow, very 80's. I haven't seen a jacket that small on a guy since Quiet Riot asked me to "feel the noize."

What to do about it? That's a good question. I'd say that the advice you've gotten so far is good, but I feel I should point out that over the years there have been literally hundreds of sitcom episodes done about this very same frustrating situation. Perhaps you could research some on TBS, Nickelodeon, or TVLand.
Just be careful about which wacky plot you decide to duplicate, and be equally careful in how it's carried out...or hilarity WILL ensue.

got him a new jacket

he loves it.

That jacket would have been a great jacket once upon a time but now .... yer it was time for it to retire. Good job on keeping your BF happy while making yourself happy at the same time. Just one question, is there any chance we might get a look at this new jacket you got for him?

Um, I think its cute.

I think its cute. If he is comfortable in it, and likes it, and you love him then- just deal. Guys with their own sense of style are attractive. Hey it could be a lot worse!
