Putting on a pair of wet jeans that are too tight and wearing them until they dry so that they stretch out enough to fit properly It’s an intensely uncomfortable experience but worth it when you put the jeans on next time

Buying a bigger size

I made an error in purchasing my perfect pair of jeans. My friend who used to work at Levi’s recommends buying a size too small and I was cursed constantly with too baggy jeans because of not doing this. But I sized down too much with a very sturdy denim and they were just so uncomfortable. I persevered for a while, hoping they’d stretch more and refusing to take the loss. But last week I just fucking bought the size up and now I can wear them and love them and not feel sad and annoyed at myself every time! The moral of this story is to buy clothes that fit you, and to not continue to wear something that makes your crotch feel like it’s about to split in half. Take the loss, it will feel better.

Discomfort

Jeans give me a sense of firmness. Sometimes when I’m “too” comfortable, jeans give me a sense of structure where I feel less like a slob. Discomfort in general. Pushing yourself. Expanding your threshold, stamina, skills.
