I'm curious about this. I have a favorite 1 of everything in my closet, including a favorite pair of boxers. I don't care how old they get. You never leave a soldier behind. My favorite pair of boxers have been loyal, so in their twilight years they still want to rock.but every girlfriend that I have ever had, always wants to replace my favorite old shirt, and socks and the boxers. You ladies are sneaky when you make your move too!. Like a bunch of damn laundry ninjas sent to kill old man boxer.why? please explain why me and the rest of the boyfriends in the world can't keep our old stuff we love?
I've seen all of the questions you have submitted., you are really insecure. I know a lot of women that don't replace their boyfriends or husbands favorite things, but it sounds like you are picking some weird women. I find that you are bashing women, did you and your mom have a rocky relationship, is that why you have trouble with relationships and women in general. You gave me advice on getting counseling, maybe you need to take your own advice.
Actually no. I've had a great relationship with a woman for quite a long time. My questions are based on various factors. Aside from this website I also run an advice column in a newspaper and I do a weekly spot on a radio program. My responses are a mixture of experience and humor. So nice try! I think you hate me because I live the life you only dream of. My secret is Honesty and hard work! Give it a try and maybe you can join my fanclub! - thank you for the response! - j - 2 months ago
I wouldn't replace anything without permission, but I've definitely made suggestions. Guys will wear boxers until they can't, and there's a point well before that when they become kind of gross to look at. Sometimes it's a bit of a problem.
That's the thing here. We don't see them as gross. The washing machine takes the gross off them everytime. Guys just don't do that. It's just weird. I know we should, but we just don't. So I guess women were just given the job of "Sock and Boxer Grim Reaper"-lol just let us say goodbye to them first. They were good people and they will be missed. - j - 3 months ago
With old clothes, throwing out the old ratty stuff and getting you something new is a way of taking care of you. It's a gesture to show that she noticed that you might need more of whatever it was or you needed a new one. I don't do it to be mean or anything, I do it simply because I'm trying to do something nice.
Damn...you got me there! Great!, now I feel like a total dick! lol I'm joking. I understand what your saying, My big thing here is that every time they have been replaced...it was so unexpected. I didn't even get to say goodbye...my last girlfriend laughed her ass off at me when I told her that. She said I was crazy when I wanted to have a little funeral for the old socks and boxers. They were good people and I wanted to honor them like the true soldiers they were. lmao I'm an odd boyfriend I know - 3 months ago

Haha, I can understand that though! I don't like it when my old stuff gets thrown out without me knowing either, so I probably wouldn't completely do away with someone else's old things without a warning. lol, a funeral might be a proper compromise since you get to say your goodbyes and still replace them. Poor fellas... hehe. - 3 months ago
if it's old and it has holes then it's got to go. however if I find that my guy has some sentimental reason for not being able to part with said garment then I'd lay my hands off it and just pretend that I didn't see it. it's kinda cute. actually, my ex had this stuffed bunny that was always by his night stand and I always put it away whenever we were doing stuff. *ahem* anyway he'd get mad if I'd even move it and I later found out that it was his first stuffed animal given to him by his grandpa. I know it's not a boxer but I guess some guys get attached or used to certain things and they find it difficult to part with.
personally, I don't really like old things. what I mean is, if something has lost its use then I just replace it with something useful. it just seems logical to me.
Lol, so what's going to happen to me? eh? In the future when I'm old and useless am I going to be thrown away....? probably so, but I hear they have great arts and crafts in retirement homes- j - 3 months ago

Well if you're nice to the girl you end up with and have nice kids then maybe you won't end up in a retirement home. ;) lol instead you might enjoy a quiet afternoon reading and waiting to get served by one of your grandkids. :p lol - 3 months ago
I have a thought on this. Now, I've never actually gone through my exes stuff and decided what needed to be retired and what didn't, but I might have a theory for you.
A lot of girls don't like the fact that some ex-girlfriend had seen you in said boxers, t-shirt, whatever. It's a bit of an insecurity issue. Like they don't want to think that you've been with someone else, and they figure that if they throw out the old stuff, it'll make whatever ex-girlfriends you have disappear. If that makes sense?
Now, bear in mind, this is just a theory, but it wouldn't surprise me if that is the case. Hope this helps!
Are you serious! man I never knew girls thought on that level. That's some like trans psycho mind erasing stuff going on. That's a really good theory. but scary for sure. I feel sorry for my old boxers now, because they are going to be marked for death! :( - j - 3 months ago

Yeah, some girls think very strangely. It's one of those things that some people would think you would want to get rid of, especially if they are years old. On the flip side, if you don't wear them anymore, maybe girls just think that they're taking up space, and it's time to retire them. Similar to an old holy pair of socks. I'm just full of theories today. - 3 months ago
