In full seriousness, one of my green lights for a relationship is someone who values functional pockets in clothing and other practicalities.

other practicalities.

I mean....purses are those other practicalities lol. What human doesn't value being able to carry their items in more efficient manners?

I’m sure you can find exceptions, but most purses, especially the more expensive ones, are just big voids with a shoulder strap (if even that). They’re designed to be fashion accessories.

You can replicate the entire function of most purses with a plastic grocery bag.

Practicality is something like a backpack or shoulder pack. Many pocket and compartments, designed for weather resistance, rugged and durable. And honestly, more fashionable than a lot of people realize. So many colors and designs to choose from.

My point was that most humans value functional pockets of all varieties. I'm not even sure the type of person who would not value pockets or bags or purses?

Also you clearly have never shopped for purses before hahah

Ah, then I wasn’t clear enough.

I meant that something like that would get mentioned without prompting in normal conversation. That such things are constantly on their mind.

“You look really nice.”

“Thanks, it’s hard to find good jeans in my size with actual pockets.

I'm never going to yuck someone's yum. I hope you find your pocket-appreciating prince or princess soon <3

Sadly, that’s one of the sweetest things anyone has ever said to me.
