To get to the crux of these questions, leaf through this blog post and tune in.

Possible reasons why a guy lets you wear his clothes 

It always feels nice to slip into the clothes your special one wears. But when a guy who still doesn't share an official relationship with you wants you to wear his clothes, it brings a different feeling altogether. Not to worry dear. It's all good.

Read up to explore more on the mystery behind it.

#1 He wants to create the scent-connection

Oh, the story of scents! The moment you put on his button-up shirt or favorite hoodie you are immediately taken in by the magic scent of his body. It feels to be hugged up by his presence in a sensuous way. It tickles your senses and wraps you up with his cozy warmth. 

The scented connection is undeniable and all so powerful. You seem to carry him with you wearing this scent on you that feels so like him, so like love you never experienced. You feel reassured, you feel warm. In a passionate way, he lets you take a piece of him and share it with you.

And believe it or not, he craves to see you enjoying the emotion. You feel so intensely connected to him and that's what gives him a sense of unshakable joy.

The other way around, it drives him crazy to take a whiff of your perfume when you return them. He wants to keep it safe for himself in your absence. This is why you feel him so very eager to let you wear his clothes, simply to have your scent on them long after you are gone. 

#2 He wants to own you in a positive way

Sharing clothes isn't about wearing them, it's about expressing a desire to see you sharing a future with him. His clothes are a part of his private world and are one of those few things he is likely to feel selective about. Clothes bear a personal touch that he allows no one to get access to. 

You must be the exclusive lucky charm he gladly feels possessive of. Yes, you heard me right. He wants to cherish a sense of owning by seeing you with his clothes. It reinforces his urge to say to himself that you belong to him.

Offering his clothes indicates that he is drawing a mark of boundary with you. It implies that he wants you to get a secret right on his stuff that is priceless to him. This is an amazing means to communicate the taste of triumph over you to the world. Guys who are less communicative must be desperate to take help of these subtle means to remind you of them.

#3 He tries to stay close 

You are cozying on a sofa while you find him taking out his favorite tee and asking you to put it on. You are suddenly at a loss for words and struggling to react. Cool it dear. This time he is hitting on you in an intimate fashion.

This is a common exchange of sentiments that we love to make with our close ones. If a guy does the same thing it must be no different. He wants to redefine the closeness and familiarity with you in a much more mawkish way. In a relationship, this could mean a longing to get closer by swapping clothes and other valuables. Just like siblings, partners are used to sharing their thread of intimacy by using their common items.

To put a very fine line on it, his shirts and t-shirts stand as a tender bridge of physical nearness to you. He finds it fulfilling to take you as a part of his world.

#4 He has a romantic self

Guys have a plethora of romantic emotions that lead them doing things beyond the obvious. They will move heaven and earth for their women. And his romantic self will let him act cutest to his lady by taking small gestures to a point of lasting importance.

You may be surprised and put in a state of wonderful confusion to notice him making efforts that are seemingly ordinary in themselves, yet filled with romantic essence. The way he feels happy to see you wearing his clothes is one of those tiny expressions of romance he might be fostering within. His heart beats faster, his eyes light up and his smile gets broader as you treat his dresses like your own. 

This is the time when you should catch the signal from his blushing eyes that he has a romantic boy in him who melts before his girl. Mark the fact that he is actually touching you without making physical contact, which is almost tangible. 

#5 It arouses his senses

It can be a real turn-on for a guy to fantasize about his woman dressed in his shirts. This time he wants to see things in a different light that arouses his senses. The wildest imagination sweeps him over when he wants to see you wearing his clothes that are oddly fitting with their half-open buttons.

The excitement intensifies with him weaving thoughts and situations. Being attracted to you, he feels an invisible connection through exchanging those pieces of personal wear that bear the marks of physical ecstasy. It's highly sensual and irresistible for the guy to hold back the urge to unbutton those shirts and plant some passionate kisses on your shirtless body.

Wearing his things serve as a psychological trigger that stimulates his impulses to a height of profound intimacy. And who doesn't want to get intimate with his girl? In fact, he wants to welcome the forces to strengthen his sensation. He loves them. He awaits as many occasions as possible to have you all by himself dressed in his wardrobe hits.

#6 He finds you adorable in them

It is a possibility that his baggy clothes make you look too adorable to ignore. He simply loves how you are turned into a sweet little munchkin wearing those weirdly loose pullovers of his.

There are examples of men who feel extremely affectionate to girls when they see them in his clothes. It is a flow of pure emotions that let him behave dotingly with you and insist you on donning his clothes.

Guys don't want to miss out on a single chance to see their ladies in their best forms. Be it a funny sweatshirt or a long-length collared shirt, if she appears dainty and delicate, it becomes a memory to cling to and an unmatched style statement tailor-made for his girl.

#7 He wants to be playful

It opens the numerous floodgates of his mind when a guy feels playful and flirty in his own magic ways towards his gal. His oversized clothes fit uniquely with your body language, and did you just see him shifting his gaze to avoid eye contact?

Here are these fun moments that make way for a stronger bond he looks forward to. It may be one of his pleasing tricks to turn you around. He wants you to steal his clothes and rock them in an amusing game of fashion where your identities will blend. 

You are in great luck to have a guy who is being friendly and ready to share his happiness with you through his innocent pleasantries. Exchanging clothes is a safe and guileless word of humor to convey his attraction to you in a light and laughable tone. 

Let him unmask his jovial side and be a part of it when he teasingly offers his clothes. You can add to the humor by saying,

"Hey you, look how well I fit into them. Never mind, you too are not so bad."

#8 He wants to make memories with you 

Emotional moments and shared experiences breed innumerable memories. The fun hours, the involvement of both of you, the laughter, and the happiness associated with them leave visions that stay with us.

Relationships do not follow the grammar of do's and don'ts. So, if there is a time when he wants to lend his personal usables to you it might mean his heightened urge to create fond memories out of his loving gestures.

Has it ever crossed your mind that clothing items have sentimental values attached to them? Sharing them may suggest an attempt to have you as a part of his personal anecdotes he would gladly feel nostalgic for in the days to come.

His efforts are unrehearsed and welcoming. Have it, grab it. These are the rarest symbols that would bloom into cherished and vivid recollections of things shared together. 

So, pick up his polos, crawl into them, and look different. You are in for a treat of romance

#9 He wants to see your reaction

A guy offering you the stuff from his wardrobe is as vulnerable as a lover can be. His flimsy soul is dying to trace the nod of acceptance from you. If he finds you happy and fine with using his favorites, his heart would be flooded with a fountain of joy.

Knowing that you feel equally glad would be the kind of sign he must have been waiting for. You might catch him asking you,

 "Penny for your thoughts? How do you see yourself in them? Do you love it? " 

All this while you would possibly see him trying to figure out what is running into your mind. 

Go for it if that pleases you. You might say, 

"It's interesting. I never tried looking this way before. I would love to try them more often." 

He thought it was a one-shot venture, but with your approval, he would be ready to venture for more.

Your relationship is hinged on the clarity of the communication you choose to make with him. Keep it simple but direct. Don't make ripples on things you are not yet comfortable with. Say it out loud and make no room for misunderstanding. If you sense the prospect of a relationship you don't want from him, avoid any roundabout ways. Stop him right there saying, 

"I don't think I would feel quite great with your personal wear. I hope you won't get me wrong."

#10 He takes pride in showing you off

On several occasions, it didn't skip your notice how he feels proud among his group of friends to show off the mutual connection you share. His face brightens up with each of your pampering acts. By allowing you to wear his fashionable attires he may want to make a public display of having a faithful relationship with you.

Each time you creep into his belongings it fills him with a kind of contentment and self-assertion which he loves to flaunt. Basking in the glory of your caring attention, he boasts of being a special part of your life. It might be one of those moments of victory over people who are craving for your company but eventually, fall short.

Don't stop him from grinning from ear to ear as he lets you jump into his trendy outfits. It might be an unsaid declaration of the fact that you are having a bond that goes beyond friendship. Maybe he wants the rest of the world to know that you care for each other and you've created your own world of exploring common preferences.

He must be a smart man to let his accessories do the talking and a proud man too to communicate his pride in an enviable way to people. 

How to respond if a guy wants you to wear his clothes?

Your reactions can be two-fold in a situation when a familiar guy wants you to pick up his clothes and wrap yourself up with them. Don't get muddled up with too many vague ideas. Let us run you through the possible ways you could deal with them.

Save a few minutes to study some essential aspects.

#1 Compliment to complement 

Your fashion guy is letting you peek into his stylish valuables. It's a different milestone you have come along in the journey of your relationship. Take a moment to compliment his taste. Tell him that you feel warm and comfortable with them. Appreciate his sense of fashion with sincere and honest recognition.

Try out by saying

  • "Wow, I must say you have a great eye for choosing fashionable clothes."
  • "I'm really grateful for letting me wear those fancy pairs of jeans. They are super cool."
  • " I appreciate you lending me your pullover. It was soft and stylish and felt so comfy."
  • "Your clothes look great on me and fit me so well. You have a real aesthetic collection. I feel jealous."

All your appreciation would ensure a stronger connection between the two of you. So keep the flame burning and deepen your friendship.

#2 Capture the moment

Freeze the wonderful moments into some Insta-clicked frames and post them on social media. Celebrate each act of affection with tenderness and sharing validation. Never let go of the small pieces of memories that make up the entire canvas of your camaraderie.

Preserve those times when you felt special and received extra care from a guy who is ready to give you the freedom to use his personal possessions. Goof around with him, do some crazy stuff together, and be his best buddy. Click selfies of your dorky look with his floppy shirts hanging loose at the shoulder.

Let him know that you are happy to hold on to these memories and enjoy being in his private space.

#3 Show your excitement 

You are in a nascent stage of a relationship when he is making small endearing efforts to impress you. It's comforting. Live in the moment and relish everything you feel good about. Take his latest tees or extra-large round necks and be a perfect knockout. 

Show him you are excited. Show him you feel coddled. Don't refuse to voice your feelings. Wear a big smile to communicate that you are flattered. Tell him you are literally breathless to have shared his second skin. You can put it like this:

"This is so sweet of you, dear. I must tell you that I feel safest in your shirts and cozy sweatshirts. I fell in love with each of them. Let me call it mine, won't you?"

#4 Play fun and laugh it off

Spice up the dynamic of your bonding by adding the element of laughter and fun. Tease him with humor and banter just to ease off the ambiance. Play it light with funny faces showing your new teddy bear look into his bulging t-shirts. 

Appreciate his gentle and sensitive approach with light-hearted raillery. That would cheer him up and redouble his free spirits. He might promptly participate in the fun-play and laugh his bones out at your hilarious expression with his fluffy clothes.

To keep it easy you may say,

"This tee is best paired with my shorts. It is meant to be mine rather than yours, buddy. Let me keep it to myself, you can't have it back."

Your bright-eyed interest would keep the ball rolling once he gets sure of the fun part of this fashion game being enjoyed by you.

#5 Set boundaries if you are not comfortable 

Put a stop as soon as you start feeling uneasy about his insistence on sharing his clothing items. But do it decently avoiding any harsh feeling towards his gentleman-like offer. There is no nasty intent behind his desire to see you dressed up with his favorite stuff. It is rather kind, generous, and loving to consider you among those who he feels at home with.

Approach him with equal respect and share your uneasiness saying,

"I am really touched by your warmth. But, I am sorry I can't be my usual self in those outfits." 

Or you might find a softer way by adding,

"I can't believe you are sharing your favorite dress with me! But I think I can't take it, because I usually don't feel comfortable in others' clothes. We can plan something else instead. How about having brunch together and sharing our favorite dish?"

If you are disinterested in the kind of relationship he wants, make a clear statement of your lack of readiness, or displeasure in terms of romantic commitment. Set boundaries to convey that you don't need anything more than friendship, and you won't feel at ease sharing private spaces with each other.

#6 Return his favor

This is in case you are enjoying this act of sharing affability, you should try reversing the roles. Offer him your own belongings to use and reciprocate his geniality. Square with his choice of expressing love and affection and come up with returning his favor with heartfelt appreciation.

Time and again you can exchange your unisex items and explore the true meaning of a relationship. Plan for a 'passing the tees' thing and communicate your indulgence to his signs of intimacy.

Initiate the role reversal by saying, 

"Why don't you come over and try out my new pullover?"

A little twist of frivolity won't come amiss if that reaches him in the form of exchanging attires. Let him know that he is sweet and you are loving it.

#7 Make a surprise plan

You have got enough hints from the guy who makes excuses on showing you around the latest addition in his closet. Later he lets you choose the best among them and takes a look at how they match your coolness. 

His over-the-top attempts to make you feel good about yourself are worth being reverted now. It's time to surprise him with tokens of gratitude and unspoiled fondness. 

Reward him by cooking his favorite meals or baking his long-craved cookies. Serve a platter of hand-made delicacies to melt his heart. Plan for a surprise dinner with Mr. Nice Guy. Seize the moment and enjoy the vibe.

Tips

Act like a pro and follow some quick tips to deal with a situation when a guy wants you to wear his clothes.

  • Communication is the key to any confusion you might be feeling about wearing the clothes of a guy. Have an honest and open conversation to talk about your lack of comfort or uncertainty.
  • Establish boundaries if you feel out of place and refuse his offer with a no-nonsense directness.
  • Take the relevant factors and conditions into account. You should give it a second thought if the request comes from a stranger or a person of mere acquaintance. But you should take it in a good light if one of your friends or your partner wants you to wear his clothings.
  • Get a clear insight into your own emotions. If wearing his clothes brings romantic implications you are not sure of, take time to have a talk with yourself.
  • Consider his intentions behind letting you take his clothes. Follow his reactions to come to a fair conclusion. 
  • Stop overthinking and focus on your individual well-being. Keep sharing and keep caring.
