clothing not fitting right after a while
Ive found nice jackets, pants, and shirts that have helped me pass. But after a few months they stretch out, usually towards the chest, collar and thighs/waist.
Its not like I dont take care of them, I try and do everything I can. But it's sad because I like a lot of my stuff, but i know they'll look like shit on me after a while.
and if when I start passing, get top surgery or even a better binder, I'll have to change out some of my wardrobe.
I think learning how to sew/stitch would help a lot.
But man I hate when this happens to the cloths I like.
Also it just the exra layer of how cloths make me feel uncomfortable. always being cautious on getting it wet, sitting down or the constant lifting my shirt because i might stretch the collar, not laying down because i might stretch the chest even if im wearing a binder, not zipping jackets becuse what if my hips stretch them out.
Though To an extent it's probably in my head ngl.
