I said every 2-3 wears, but I only wear each pair maybe 1 time per week, if that. So it evens out to about 1-2 washings per month. That sounds gross. I am gross. They don't smell (usually).
I don't think that's gross. Jeans don't need to be washed every time they're worn.
Usually after each wear because after that they're too loose. But if I'm just running to the store or somewhere that I'm not worried about my appearance, I'll throw them on another time or two before laundry day.

It depends on the jeans and what I did in them. I have a pair that needs to be washed after 1 or 2 wears because they stretch too much and look sloppy. If I'm hiking or sweating or they start to smell, I'll wash them sooner. But generally, I have 2 pairs and I'll wash them each 1 - 2 times a week.
I picked every 2 or 3 wears BUT it does depend on some things. Like some pants I can only wear once before I get the dreaded saggy butt @missyishere already mentioned. Or if we go out to the casino then they have to be washed because cigarette smoke. Or if I do something to get them dirty or my kid spills something on them.
Once a week and then if they get loose or saggy I will pop them in the dryer and "fluff". This is the only time they go in the dryer. When I wash them, I hang them to dry.
I am honestly shocked to be so far in the minority in the wash after every wear group. I dont wear anything twice, not even pajamas. I thought that was normal.
So you would wash jeans after wearing them for an hour to run errands? Or just after a full day's wear? Last week I only wore one pair of jeans for probably 8 hours over 4 different days. It doesn't make sense to wash them in between.
I wear everything at least a couple times before tossing in the laundry except for underpants and socks (unless I wore them super briefly, then I might wear them one more time). I have a pretty small wardrobe, though.

i used to, then i wondered why the hell am i washing them? if they're not dirty or smelly then why add extra wear and tear to them?
only exception would be saggy butt. saggy butt is always a legit reason to wash.

Do you use a new bath towel every day?
My ILs are like this. I think it's kind of excessive, but they think I have bad heigene.
I so badly want to have a job where I can wear jeans everyday.
I wash every 2-3 wears unless they are really dirty or something got spilled. I only have two pair of jeans I actually wear. The rest of them can DIAF for making my ass look terrible.

Not at all. Lol, sorry.
Seriously, I have enough laundry without washing stuff when it isn't dirty.

I feel like that should count for something even though it doesn't, at all.
