It make perfect sense to me when I first read it.
I really liked it. It was very witty, and you seem to have a knack for realistic yet stylish discourse.
That sentence you didn't like, I think it would be tighter if it went like
We’re close enough for me to tell her I’ve stopped wearing underwear, but not quite close enough for me to tell her it’s because the new budget-detergent I’d used last week gave me a rash.
And actually, although someone complained that the initial situation was confusing, I personally thought it was a fantastic opening. The first sentence is abrupt and amusing, and the second sentence perfectly displays the concise and implicit nature of your prose. It was very refreshing.
