Do you own clothing that you don't want to wear, not because it fits funny but because it has some kind of bad memory attached to it?
I have a shirt in my drawer that I've been skipping because I happened to be wearing it a recent few times when I got sick/injured and now it reminds me of that. I'm not thinking there is some kind of "bad luck" attached to a piece of fabric but it just reminds me of bad stuff and I finally decided to just get rid of it lol. Am I the only one who does this?
-
No ..... I can't say I ever even thought of this.
-
No but I have had clothes that I attached a certain memory to because of something that happened when I was wearing it.
-
I don't have any clothes like that - why don't you give it away to someone who needs clothing? ???
-
I don't have any bad memories to my clothes and I have gotten where if I buy any clothes, then I will take a like amount down and donate them, Just like anything else I buy. If I have something that is working good I will donate it after I get the newer one which is not often any more, because I just about replaced every thing with something new.
-
I don't attach memories to clothes. I do have a few items that I can't bear to give up because I love them so much, even though they don't fit me anymore.
-
Mine is the opposite. I have two pieces that I wore during high school, many, many years ago. (I'm now retired), They are pieces that bring me great memories. I don't think there is anything wrong with keeping a couple of pieces. I donate most of the clothes I no longer wear but these two pieces hang in an extra closet. I also have a couple of my dad's shirts, he passed in 1985. If I had something that related to a bad memory I believe I would get rid of it quickly.

I don't have any bad memory clothes, or clothes that I think are jinxed.... if I did, I would add them to the Salvation Army pile & move them on.
I do have clothes that have good memories associated with them, many from my youth. I just can across an old Mammoth MTN shirt that I got one of my friends to give me off his back. Funny. It's a nice shirt.
-
I do get fond memories flooding back whenever I pull my 45 year old leather jacket out of the closet (yes I still wear it often), but the bad memory clothes went to Goodwill years ago.

I actually have clothes that have good memories attached to them.
-
No and it would be bothersome, why hold onto something that will bring you sadness. like the loss of a family member, oh I remember, I had this when I was younger, and the point to that is??????
-
I still have my undershirt that I wore when I played football in high school. Way too small to wear now, but it brings back good memories.
-
No I do not have any clothes like that
-
I was in an accident a while back where someone in another car was killed, I had just got a really nice pantsuit, but I donated it immediately.
-
Ironically I never did until recently. I bought an outfit to wear to a Christmas party and later that night I got the most devastating news of my life. When going through my clothes recently I saw that outfit and can no longer wear it because it reminds me of that horrible memory.
-
I have a few clothing items that have memories attached to them, like two dresses that I wore to my graduation and a shirt I purchased to wear to a concert. That shirt is over a decade old, but I also still like it.
-
I just have a few things my mother wore that bring back good memories.
-
I bought this shirt that has diamond colored beads all over it and the last real conversation I had with my grandma before she died was to ask her if I should reinforce the stitching on them. She said yes, which I did then showed it to her. Her eyes were failing her so she ran her hand over it and said she did like what I had done. Now that she has passed on, every time I wear the shirt it makes me think of her. It's one of the few things I can attach to her and not cry about.
-
I don't have any clothes I attach bad memories to. I have some old clothes that I have memories of that time period. Some old clothes I regret giving away though. I'm not buying as many clothes as I used to. I have way too many clothes.
-
No, I don't recall any of my clothing reminding me of a memory. I am glad of that because I would not want to be reminded of some of the memories I have. Majority are good memories but I do have a few bad ones.
-
I have a few shirts I've refused to get rid of because they were given to me by someone or I wore them to a special event.
-
I don't attach memories to clothes. I have some favorite pieces of clothing.
-
I can't wear the dress I wore to my Mom's funeral anymore.
-
I kept the last piece of clothing along with a pair of earring that my mom purchased me for my birthday before she past away. Cannot seem to let go of them even though I no longer use either one. Not sure the clothing would fit anymore.
-
No, I do not; they are just clothes that serve a purpose; when they no longer serve my purpose if they are in fairly good shape; i just donate so someone else can enjoy or benefit from.
