I’ve been seeing him for a long time, but when I first received his offer, he always dressed stylishly. Recently, he wears almost the same outfits every time, and they can hardly be called fashionable.

He used to say, “There’s a great restaurant—let’s go there next time!” These days, we just rotate through the same few places. We’re still on good terms. But things were more exciting and fun when we first met, and I liked him when he was stylish enough to even pull off hats… Men around my age seem to become more stylish the longer they’re together, so why do men in the older generation seem to go in the opposite direction…? I’m not saying he has to spend a lot of money, but it makes me sad to wonder whether he sees me as someone he doesn’t need to make an effort for. I’m worried that I won’t be able to keep liking a man who wears clothes and shoes covered in pilling, frayed, or stained, and carries worn-out bags forever. I do like him, though… Is there any way to get him to go back to how he used to be?
