Cursed clothes

If you are, so am I. No idea what I wore to his funeral, either.

I have a cursed recipe, I cooked it for my then BF the night he dumped me. It was a really good lamb curry made with lamb from the butcher that cost £££.Will never cook it for another man.

Don't some sports people wear lucky pants and/or socks?

My elder daughter had a bad accident. Lots of clothes from that time associated, obviously the outfit she was wearing when it happened, but also the clothes bought to accommodate the bulky bandages etc. I felt quite sick when they all came out of storage for the younger daughter, but she's worn it all for a year and nothing terrible has happened. The reason I did not simply get rid is that I have made an immense effort to normalise what happened, and minimise the trauma for dd1. The pan involved had to go though, could never have faced cooking with it again. The chair is still in the kitchen, no idea which of the 4 it is.
And the public service announcement bit of the story is that kids should not cook using the hob unless they are tall enough to reach. Dd1 was standing on a chair and she fell off, instinctively tried to catch herself and unfortunately grabbed the pan handle.
Anyway, Op, wear the stuff or give it away/sell. Not a good idea to keep a load of cursed clothes in storage, the power is cumulative you know ;)

I get you op, definitely cursed. Burn them so you don’t pass the bad luck on.

The Goldie Hawn film ‘Private Benjamin’ is cursed for me. It’s been on twice when dreadful things have happened. Seriously wouldn’t watch it if you paid me a fortune!

Reading back - I don't know what I was wearing on the day my father died. Aibu?

No. I've never felt like this about an item of clothing. I suppose if I did I would wash it and put it in the charity bag.

YANBU the pair of knickers that I wore when I first had sex and the condom broke, never worn against, they were bad luck pants

Hmm very quirky. The closest I come to this is that I buy new dresses for funerals and then immediately donate them afterwards.

I know what you mean.
When I have been in a bad situation of some sort I feel like the clothes absorb the 'bad vibes'.

I put them in the washing machine to be 'cleansed' before I wear them again. Yes I aware this sounds crazy :-)

I have had some outfits I can't wear again. Like what I wore to my best friend's funeral, or when my cat was run over that I have just given to charity.

I fell off a kerb in the dark, had to go to A&E for stitches.
I sold the boots I was wearing, didn't trust them any more, and they were almost flat.
Have fallen at other times but never felt the hatred and distrust of the footwear, only those boots.
I will always remember the unpleasant nurse that sewed me up too, she practically told me I was lying about not drinking. I don't drink, there were no damn streetlights on the green I walked across and fell off.

Well, if they truly are cursed as you say, then they can still cause an accident from their location in your wardrobe- have you not seen any horror movies? You have to burn them, they will come back of course, unscathed, then you have to team up with a random stranger (who is also cursed by your clothes) to find an old wise woman who lives in the woods, who will give you the ancient secret of how to break the curse. The two of you should then have a race against the clock to fix it before the week is up.

In our family, we have a long tradition of taking our pets collars into an exam/driving test/interview for good luck.

YANBU I have cursed jewellery, my mum has cursed clothes which was wearing when she broke a bone badly once. It's irrational but I can absolutely sympathise!

Very strange

I have the dress I was wearing when my dad died. I don't fit in it any more but I can't part with it.

Likewise the dress I wore for his funeral. It fits me but I can't wear it nor can I see myself giving it away ☹️

I think it's time to let them go. If you believe the clothes are cursed why do you keep them around?

If I didn’t rewear any outfit that I was wearing when a minor incident happened then I don’t think I would have any clothes left! That being said, I do have a dress that I haven’t worn since my grandmothers funeral over a year ago, despite prior to the funeral it was something I regularly wore for work.

If you definitely won’t wear them again then why do you still have them?

I’d sell on Vinted or give to a charity shop. Unless the curse travels with them?!

I still have the dress I wore to my dads funeral. Can't wear it again but also can't part with it.

The outfit I wore in a bad car accident also never got worn again 'just in case'.

Deliberately wore clothes I didn't mind never wearing again when my cat was pts. Immediately changed before coming home to other cat because they were cursed.

Totally logical.

Equally I still have the clothes I wore when I gave birth and the PJ top my scbu baby would sit inside of- not a 'good' time as he was in scbu but I cherish the memory of cuddling the tiny baby.

It could be worse, she could be insulting people on the internet.

White linen trousers. Won't tell you the stories to go with the previous two pair. Suffice to say that poo, red wine, and stinging nettles featured heavily.

I think I've broken the curse. On my current pair, the elastic has given out, and the linen is getting see through.

It depends, if you have worn it before and nothing bad happened then its not cursed. First wearing, cursed so send to charity shop. This is my logic, but I'll openly admit I have lots of issues around clothing and also ridiculous rules.

I completely understand. I have a lucky dress that I happened to be wearing to my first scan. I wore it to every scan after that (with both babies) because obviously the dress made everything go well 🤷‍♀️.

Pathetic way to live really.
