7. Attachment Disorder

There’s that one piece of clothing that seems like it has been through all the major milestones of your life: a solo trip abroad, first date with your husband, college, high school… the first time you walked. You can’t seem to let it go even though you keep telling yourself you should.

It’s very possible that you have reached the end of your relationship with your faithful friend. Take those rose-colored glasses off and consider if it is still worth keeping around, or ask a trusted third party to weigh in. You may very well have a classic on your hand that is worth getting fixed/cleaned, but the nostalgia keeps you from being unbiased about it. If all it has going in sentimental value, consider turning into a keepsake (frame it, turn it into a quilt, etc.).
