Does anyone else have a dp / dh who assesses new clothes purely by their level of tightness?

If I ask dp "does this look nice?" he either says

"Mmm" which I think means he doesn't actually like it (still trying to work this one out)

or

"Yes, very nice. Very tight."

which of course gives you paranioa. Is it too tight?

"No, no. Very nice and tight."

There is the occasional deviation:

"Very nice. Very short" (not so often these days sadly :()

or even once

"Very nice. Looks like underwear."

Shock

Are they all like this or does anyone have a dh who actually makes intelligent and helpful assessments of new clothes?

Ooh thanks anniemac, I was starting to feel like a tart at a vicar's tea party Blush

Can I just point out that I do not actually wear tarty clothes (not IMO anyway) - dp's definition of 'tight' is a well-fitting t-shirt or a pair of trousers that fit round the bum or something. However I now know to slap him one if he looks a bit Sid James at me.

I think we do have to make allowances for the fact that he is from the North East, you know?
