Miss Manners: Is it rude to offer my old ‘fat clothes’ to a friend after losing weight?
A reader who recently lost a lot of weight wonders whether it’s impolite to offer her former larger-sized clothes to a financially strapped friend.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I recently lost a significant amount of weight — enough that I had to go buy all new clothes. I know a young lady who doesn’t have any money, and she is about the size I was before. I think she could probably use my old clothes, but I can’t bring myself to ask her.
