I have a "condtion" and I don't think it's normal.
I have strong memories tied to my clothes.
I remember what shirt I was wearing when I first held hands.
And what I wore on my firts date with my bff.
(I think I blocked out what I wore my very first kiss...
All I can come up with is a nasty t-shirt and bball shorts)
But that is something I'd rather not remember anyway. haha
Anyway, the point is that I can't wear half of my clothes because of this issue.
When I was in London, I think Bib thought I was a freak when I pulled out 6 shirts
and named the reason for each one being unwearable.
I wish I could erase if from my memory, but I'm such a visual person that I
replay favorite moments in my life over and over in my head... and there I am (in my mind)
having an awesome time... in THAT SHIRT.
I am getting better about it.
The more time that has passed since the event, the easier it is to wear it.
Actually I tried this new thing...
I wore a shirt that had a very bittersweet memory tied to it to my best friend's wedding,
hoping it would cancel out the sad feelings.
It half worked.
I am reminded of the wedding and it was such a great day, but I still think of the other thing, too.
Now it's my bittersweet sweater.
I wonder if I'm the only person on the planet with this weird quirk...
