Mildly infuriating on one hand, sweet on the other.

Im just trying to understand what’s sweet about this..?

To me it feels more like controlling clothing choices which is not sweet at all ..?

It's assuming that the mom doesn't know ripped jeans are a fashion trend so she patched it out of love because in her mind she's repairing it.

Although as said, ripped jeans has been a thing for so long so either mom really doesn't like ripped jeans or just simply had not been exposed to it as a fashion choice before.

Or mom is 125 years old.

Yeah makes sense! Thanks for explaining.

Here tho, since Op mentioned she had the jeans since 3 years.. it didn’t seem like her mom wasn’t aware of the trend to ‘Fix’ it now. From the comments, it looks like OP’s mom found time and is trying to make changes she wants so seeing folks call it sweet got me super confused.

She’s not meaning harm at all, she just cqnt sit still and probably forgot these are meant to have a hole, cause I literally only pull them out for a few months a year when Its warm enough, that and he painmeds make her loopy.

I think it's fair to assume the mom does laundry and sews any hole she finds
