Question

Hey there!

My friend can't afford back to school clothes, and she is the same size as me.(In pants, shirts, tank tops, shoes, and everything). Should i give her half of my clothes?

Thanks!

The reason im asking this is because ive asked her before and he ciould take them. What should i do diffrently this time? Also, the clothes i have are expensive!(from abercrombie, hollister, american eagle, pacsun, aeropstale, sass&bide...ect). What do i do?! I want to help my friend!

Answer 1

Answer 2

Say they don't fit you anymore and you want to get rid of them and since she was your size she was the first person you went too.

thats what i would do[:

Answer 3

Some people find it insulting or downgrading if they're offered freebies...this is probably the case sure. I know you mean well, and so does your friend, but she probably feels uncomfortable because you're more well off than her. Maybe at her birthday or the holidays, give her a gift, or take her shopping and pay for her! Or, ask her over to your place to try stuff on, and if she likes something, say in an offhand way, "Why don't you keep it?"

Hope this helped!

Answer 4

Take her the clothes you want to give her. And work out a deal or a trade of some kind. Like if she can help tutor you in some class. Just some way she can work off the clothes. Then it's not charity and both of you will be getting something out of it all.

Answer 5

you could always say they didnt fit you like cutebabe said, but only one problem, she'd say then they wouldnt fit me either, so i think you should be like "girl your clothes are ugly i NEED to take you shopping for new clothes, my treat, and im not taking no as an answer :]"

or something along those lines haha

i hope i helped!

Answer 6

i say you should tell her she can borrow any of your clothes whenever she needs to.  If it's not a big deal to you i guess you could give her yours clothes.

Answer 7

Tell her that your mom bought you new clothes but you think you have too many so you want to give them away, oh and if she won't take your kind gesture then maybe she doesn't deserve to have new clothes and do her old clothes from last year fit her?

Answer 8

well...i think u should take her shopping and if she thinks somthing is cute u should distract her then buy it for her.... then when u get home give it 2 her... SURPRISE!!.... u could also give her some $ if her bday or somthing is coming up...... umm or u could just give her some of ur clothes but not half

i hope this helped
