My mom tried on my jacket. Now it feels weird. (OCD?)
OK, this is maybe weird. Maybe not at all. I’m just wondering about you guys’ opinion.
Last weekend I went over to my parents’ house. I was wearing a new leather jacket I bought somewhere last week. My mom told me she loved my new jacket and told me it looked really good on me. She asked me if she could try it on to see how it looked on her. I didn’t really know what to say. I didn’t want it, but I couldn’t say “no” for some reason. Anyway, she tried it on for the mirror and gave it back.
But I dunno. Ever since she wore it, even though it was only for about a minute, it now doesn’t feel mine anymore. I feel really weird and kind of dirty when I’m wearing it now. Like it’s her jacket I’m wearing now, and I don’t like that feeling. It’s hard to explain. I also feel like it rubs off to other clothes. For example a sweater I’m wearing under the jacket.
I also had this when I was about 9 or 10 years old. When my mom and dad were both working my grandma came over to baby-sit my younger brother and me and made lunch and dinner for us. After a while I found out my grandma sometimes took a nap in the afternoon in me or my brothers bed. I was freaked out for some reason and found it very disgusting to sleep in that same bed.
What I have now is pretty much the same. I have this urge to wash my leather jacket, but you cannot wash leather!
I know most people don’t like to wear second hand clothes, but it feels like my version is a bit extreme. For some reason I only have this with older women. For example: I don’t mind it when my brother or friends of mine need to borrow some of my clothes.
I’m just curious how other guys feel about this. I cannot really discuss it with my friends, because it’s maybe kind of “weird”.
So how do you guys feel about this? Would you have a problem with things like your mom wearing your jacket? Or none at all? What would you do? Just curious.
