The car doors locking thing made me laugh... anyway, guys by default aren't usually fashion buffs. Some dudes just REALLY don't get it at all, don't care, don't think it matters, etc.
I think what you are doing for your boyfriend is great, and it shows very good self awareness on your part that you don't want to seem like you are changing him. So does he like the items you bought him so far? I know his mom does lol.

Please do. I had no sense of style or care until my girlfriend helped me. Now I'm confident in my wardrobe.
What guy would be offended by this,?
If anything he should be ecstatic because i have amazing taste👏

A lot of guys are well aware that the have no style sense and/or that they wear old clothes a little too long, but clothes are just not a big priority. And so most guys would appreciate some help in this area. I wouldn't worry about it - if he asks, just tell him that you enjoy shopping for him.
Hell no. I know I have 0 fashion sense, Im usually wearing black carhartt shirt, hoodie and black jeans for when im working. Once Im off of work you'll always find me in sweat pants and a old hoodie. Its not that I can't afford new stuff its just that either I dont care enough go out and buy stuff and or that Im not always sure whats best for me. Hell I went to the north American auto show in sweat pants and a hoodie. I go to all my social gatherings with my carhartt blacked out outfit. My girlfriend has bought me a few things and even tho I didn't like the idea at first I notice how much better I can dress. I dislike her spending her own money on me tho tbh. I usually try and basically give her money back but she will
tell me its fine, and not worry about it, in that situation I just sneak a couple dollars into wallet or jacket every chance I get... not enough for her to notice a wad of money and notice im doing it. If I can't find a chance to sneak some money in, I just make sure to take her somewhere nice or to get her something nice. I know she hates going to the gas station to refill her car so whenever she is over I'll grab her keys and go fill up her tank.Guys can get complacent about clothes. They tend to get only what they need, and wear it until it falls apart. Once they find a āstyleā that suits them, thatās all they wear.
For him to actually buy things, itās going to take some gentle nudging. He will need to break into the new looks and see that he actually looks good.
Really he only needs a couple base outfits to get him started. Then a little knowledge on how to create more of the same. Buying him more is just going to cause problems down the road. He will start to feel obligated to wearing the clothes when around you, feel like he owes you, or (even worse) that he is stupid.
When I say gentle nudging, I mean gentle. This canāt be an everyday thing. He needs to believe itās in his own best interest to buy clothes that fit, and look good on him.Sweet. I had the same a few days back. I am sort of sloppy with my clothing as well. When I received a few things, these were not what I perhaps would have bought for myself - but it's nothing to exotic. My sweetheart would like to see me dressed like this; if I can make her happier, there is no problem for me to 'oblige'.
The gift also showed me that she cares for not only what I'm wearing, but for me in general. That is a very nice compliment.
The only item I could NEVER tolerate would be a necktie. But she knows that.If she has decent taste then I'd be grateful to her for buying me clothes. In all fairness my wardrobe needs a bit of an overhaul anyway, bought my first house at the start of the year so I've had very little money since to be able to buy clothes or much else outside of house expenses...
No its not offensive, in fact I as a guy greatly appreciate it! To me its a show of affection and that they are thinking of me. Not to mention I like the idea that I'm wearing somthing that reminds me of her and that she likes seeing it on me. I say go ahead, might leave a cute little note for him in the jean pocket! I think he will appreciate it!
Unless heās a pretty boy or your taste in clothes is god awful most men would wear your gift with pride i would think. Though my clothing standards are typcial jeans and t shirt im hardly the gucci or armani type
Iāll admit my fashion sense is lacking and I DO appreciate help. But Iām picky about what Iāll wear and she would have to be an extraordinarily good guesser to be successful. I wouldnāt be offended by her thoughtfulnessāin fact, Iād be afraid of offending her back if I didnāt like something. In my case, it would be best if we went shopping together. Her taste with my veto power would be ideal.
It's fine, but you've missed the entire point.
Guys get with girls hoping they'll never change.
Girls get with guys thinking they can fix them. FAIL
You're clueless about men. Period.I have no problem with that, the only risk is, if you buy something without his knowledge you could end up buying something he finds ugly (or not, it depends on luck).
I helped my girlfriend choose clothes but never happened the other way around and as we are not together anymore it ain't gonnaMy wife buys almost all my clothes and it's great. I love that she does that because I hate shopping for myself. Just ask him. I'm guessing he would love it.
Go crazy with clothe gifts at Christmas or birthday otherwise it feels like you are trying to change who he is any other time. Have you tried plucking his eye brows yet , I bet you have lol. I meant that harmlessly light hearted
I think it sweet, but it can send the message that you're trying to change him. That's easy to fix though. Take him clothes shopping.
As long as it's comfortable, I wouldn't mind either way.
WTF, who is so fragile to be offended about getting new clothes as a gift? I'd be very appreciative of it depending on the clothing I was given.
Why would it be? Plus side, since they have good fashion sense it it usually looks great
no but i won't wear what i don't like so don't be offended if i don't like it either xD
As long as he likes it it's okay.
Me personally is a different story.No, I'd prefer that becasue I want to dress the way she wants me to
I hate being bought stuff. I far prefer choosing my own clothes in general
