Indochino jacket - Can these shoulders be tailored or should I just tell them to remake it? by boxofjackin malefashionadvice

[–]boxofjack[S] 1 point2 points ago

I didn't intend to do any more shopping at Indochino but they sent me a 30% off voucher so I decided to their essential light grey blazer. So far, I've noticed the shoulders seams are all bunched up around the shoulder pads and the hips are a little too wide.

I've heard that shoulders are the one thing you really can't change about a jacket so I'm wondering if I should just send this back and tell them to remake it.

I dig that Vampire Weekend album cover.

I'd add a photo that shows more of your body, you seem like a pretty handsome dude.

If the people you're messaging aren't knowledgable about non-monogamous relationships, I'd add a little more just so they understand the arrangement you're in and what you're looking for. Not too much detail, just enough to reassure them.

I suggest some varied photos. Maybe one of you outdoors and smiling more. A full body shot would be cool too but not necessary.

Your profile text is pretty interesting. It's a little dry in places and could use some more personality but overall I like it.

Ha, I think you don't get a email notification if a person you're not interested in (e.g. another straight dude) rates you highly.

That's very nice of you to say! I would be flattered if you rated me 5 stars. :)

Yeah, I worry about the length but I really like what I've written.

I typically keep it really short and comment about something they written in their profile, like if we both like the same book or I might ask a question about something quirky that they wrote.

Thanks, all great advice. I do feel like I play it a little too safe in my profile.

And yes, the fried rice is amazing.

Removed. I'm new to this subreddit but I'm definitely gonna spend more time here and pick up more tips.

Typically messaging white girls because that's 95% of what shows up on my matches. I've gotten a pretty decent response rate from Asian girls but we didn't click well enough to warrant setting up a meet.

Good point. Thanks! I'll dig up a happier one.

EDIT: It is now a photo of me smiling. Sadly, I don't have a good outdoors photo of me smiling.

I've had a little experience with M-Audio and I like em. :)

Any responses so far? It is quite noble and brave of you to play Craigslist gatekeeper.

The servers would most definitely crash because there is no one there to reboot it once that leak bug that we never had time to fix has exhausted all available memory and the system is paging itself to death.

I don't know about that, what is the motive?

  1. He submits it to the girl as his own so he can cheat on his wife
  2. He submits it to a coding competition and wins a free iPod
  3. He prints it out and makes an amusing Halloween costume out of code snippets

Even if #1 were the truth, I think we'd want to help the guy. Sure, he's dishonest but if a man has a chance to score with a hot Asian programmer girl, you gotta help him out.
