If I don't like the way she looks in something, I'm honest but gentle and positive. So, I don't say "ew" or "no" or "you look like a fat stumpy Asian chick with floppy tits." I say something like "why don't you were ..... instead -- that'd look really good." And that's fine with her.
The part I dread is when I say she does look good. Because inevitably she thinks I'm being "nice" (i.e., lying), or maybe she only asked my opinion because she already had doubts. And this leads to endless outfit changes, would this look better, how about that....
This is as high-maintenance as she gets, which is basically nothing. But still -- don't ask me if you don't really care about the answer.

this is what I mean. Sidd is across the country, with no way to verify if I am butt, but still takes pot shots.
TM is mean.
