Face it dude, you aren’t getting that sweater back unless you marry her. And probably not even then. If you don’t marry her, she’ll either have fond memories of you when she wears it, or she’ll trash it in a fit of anger. Take it from someone with extensive experience in the matter. I did this long before hoodies, when sweaters were real sweaters. It even works with windbreakers and letter jackets. This is the latest comic from Sarah Andersen.
My then-girlfriend "borrowed" my sweaters in order to get rid of them. After we got married, she told me that she disapproved of many of my clothes and decided that the best way to make me dress better was to slowly "disappear" the ones she didn't like, and buy me better ones. :)
