It's nice that he'd like to improve, though.

Mine has been looking to do the same lately, which is sweet.The other day he had a shoe shopping adventure.
I was going to straight up just buy him a pair of grown-up casual shoes (all he owns are running shoes, sandals, and toe shoes), because his current options have been restricting us in terms of where we can go on dates.
On his way home from work one day, he texts me that he'll go buy them himself.
I had my doubts, so I sent pictures of the types of shoes he should look for; standard fare like desert boots and casual oxfords.
I also explicitly told him not to buy square-toed shoes or loafers (which can be really hit-or-miss, and I was skeptical of his judgment).
He starts sending me photos of shoes he's trying on, and I give him feedback. I was out with friends at the time, so I couldn't be on my phone non-stop. I leave it for 10min, check my phone, and see about 5 photos of shoes like pic related. Exactly what I told him to avoid. All the nicer shoes only got the honour of 1 photo each...Guess which he bought?
He had to go back to the store to exchange them. Pretty cute, since it's exactly what I was expecting would happen.
At least he tried!
