A friend asks you how they look in their new dress/suit that they paid a LOT of money for. You think it looks alright but not the best.
What do you say?
Edit: Yes! I know, I messed up a little. This is my first shot at this kind of thing so please be patient. NIL suggested that I do one without the poll so that will probably be how I do the next one

My fashion sense can be wildly different from other people's. So who am I to judge?
-
Perfectly balanced...
-
tell them it looks awful to watch them squirm and regret the decision
-
If they seem to like it, I tell em it’s nice. How much they like the suit is what matters most.

Edited by TheArtist: 5/1/2019 3:12:55 PMI'd tell them that it looks nice. At this point the clothing has been bought....and the person asking you for your opinion isn't really looking for an honest assesement, but instead want a boost to their confidence. They dont' want the truth. The truth would make them feel bad...and nothing (in this situation) will really be gained from making them feel bad. If they were in the process of BUYING the clothing.....I'd give my honest opinion. But I'd couch it in terms of being critical of the piece of clothing, and not of the person wearing it. Once again, the goal being to try to steer them away from a purchase they'll likely regret later, but without making them feel bad. If its a girlfriend or spouse....the stakes are even higher. So my first reaction would be to dodge the question (pretend you didn't hear it).....then tell the white lie if she's already bought it, and dodging the question isn' an option. [b] Do not tell her the truth. [/b]She doesn't want to hear it, no matter how much she claims she does. The truth will strike at her body image and sense of attractiveness (she'll blame herself for making the clothing look bad)....and she'll become angry at you for making her feel that way. Its not rational (since she asked for the opinion)...its not fair....but that's how it works.

First, i would check the price of the suit and if it fits me. if its expensive, and it does - i will tell them they look like shit and they should give it to me, or i will take it off their hands. they should go buy a new suit. if it looks nice, i will tell them it looks shit, and they should wear Chinos to court, because i am the only allowed to wear a suit to my funeral!

where's the "i don't care how you look" option. 🤷🏽♂️
-
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be

[quote]beauty is in the eye of the beholder[/quote] Tell'em it sucks😖

Depends how close I was to them. A really close friend I would tell them honestly what I thought. If it was just some random acquaintance I would just do the polite thing and say it looked nice. You never know how people will react.
-
Tell her that the dress may not be the best, but she is still beautiful nonetheless.
-
Tell them the truth.
-
If it's my significant other, I'm going to be honest but still reassure them they're gorgeous. Anyone else, I'll tell the truth without sugar coating it
-
I was going to vote honestly and say I'd probably say it looks nice, but it looks like the rule of three was already in effect. Must say that's one proud pp poll.
-
tell them the truth

[quote]You think it looks alright but not the best.[/quote] ^^^^That Why lie?
-
I like the way the poll looks... no homo. [spoiler]I’ll be nice and tell them it looks nice[/spoiler]
-
I'd just be honest and tell them it looks nice, but don't tell them it's the best. Also, at least you achieved a proper pee-pee poll.

What would Yesus do?

Edited by RollTide2235: 4/30/2019 10:39:55 PMTell them it looks like crap. Friends are supposed to be honest and try and save you from embarrassment. Edit: also didnt vote on poll as to not mess up said pp poll
-
I would do what I always do, which is ask them how they feel in it. If they say they feel great, then I tell them they look great because confidence can make a meh outfit look good.

Edited by man_of_war_r2: 4/30/2019 10:19:56 PMdepends on how close i am to the person. "Bro looks great, but the old one is better." will be my usual answer. but if its one of my real friends. "Bro that looks repulsing." cause endless i think it looks dope then my friends would think i am lying.

balanced the poll

As truthful as can be, I don't like to overhype, so I keep things as real as I can.
