I have needed a new purse for quite some time now. (We're talking 5, maybe 10 years now)
I go looking at purses but don't seem to find anything that I like.
Yesterday, I went purse shopping (once again) with the intent of buying a purse. (this purse buying excursion happens regularly, resulting in no purse purchases). You see, RT told me that I needed to get a new purse. I think the words, "I'm going to throw that one out" were mixed in with, "that one looks bad" and "it's time." He has a way with the few words that flow out of his mouth.
I went to a couple of stores that had a large selection of purses. I walked through, looked at and maybe tried a couple out. I walked out of both stores without a purse.
After leaving the second store, I realized that I have commitment issues with purse buying. I'm thinking of starting a support group. Let me know if you are interested.
RT said I need to just take the plunge and buy a purse.
It's hard. I have to imagine myself in all situations with the purse. Most don't measure up.
Can I wear this purse everywhere on every occaision? Does it look good? Will everything (including the kitchen sink) fit in there? (I'm not a huge purse person) Do I like that color? Does it match anything and everything in my wardrobe?
It's really a marriage for me, not purse buying.
I am trying to work through my purse issues. The purse that I have now I don't like and has holes in it. Yea, I know. Somehow I let myself get away with wearing that one and I dismiss all the normal ones they have at the store.
Like I said, I have to work through these issues. I am hoping, in time, I will be able to take the plunge and buy a purse.
Until then, I have to hide my current purse so RT doesn't throw it out.
