Bought Dh, myself and Dd matching Christmas pjs (I know, I know)
All went to get dressed in them and get all cosy after work. DD’s age 5, mine a large and Dh XL-he’s an average sized guy, but quite tall and I thought baggy. I’m size 16 now and need to get some weight off.
Mine fitted ok, Dh came downstairs and says his top was a bit small (it wasn’t really) and could he swap with mine? I said why mine as mines a large and his is extra large? He said mine looked bigger and the womens tops are usually larger.
Aibu to feel a weird kind of offended by this or just being super sensitive because I hate mr weight and I’m tired of being fat?

I reckon you’ve hit the nail on the head here. My husband has been walking around in my Oodie this week, it looks like a normal size/ largeish dressing gown on him, and he still looks relatively human shaped. I look like I’ve been swallowed by a very soft, comfy church bell when I wear it, I look as broad as I am tall. I reckon if we stood side by side in one people would assume they were different sizes.

@Furleasenavidad id take it that yours looked loose so he thought it was bigger. Men can be quite simple 😂
