Am I the only one who struggles with online shopping? Like with measurements for example, I don't know what there talking about or if the clothes will be the right size. How does everyone else get around this?

But that's the problem it's hard to know what your getting. For me all those measurements mean nothing to me.

It sounds like you're trying to argue with someone who agrees with you instead of asking someone who doesn't.

How? I literally just agreed with him

If I don't know what I'm getting, I wouldn't order it online.

I only order items that I have purchased previously and liked. Jeans are the main item I order online. I don't need to have a wide variety of pants and I'm ok getting the same thing repeatedly. Shirts vary too much for me. Even the same brand and size label can have drastically differing fits so those are in-person only.
