when you engage in relations with your boyfriend use water based lubes, not oil based ones next time.

Try using hairspray.

Ive gotten ink on clothing before, and used hairspray on the fabric stain and worked well.

or keep them and be happy you have a nice new pair of junky pants to where when you work on your car or do other things.

Its what I do, I got a sweet new pair of polo cargo shorts. for working on my car, and painting and crap.

They are comfortable too...

I think that once they've been washed with the stain, it's basically pemanent. You have to treat the stain as it happens, or else it'll soak in and destroy the clothing.
Looks as though you have a new set of pants to work on the car with...

It may be too late, but I've always gotten oil out of my clothes by rubbing in some orange hand-cleaner & then throwing them in the washer.

It's usually the dryer that sets the stain in.

I have yet to find a way to get oil stains out.

Yeah, once you throw something in the dryer it pretty much makes all of the stains set

try some gojo hand cleaner... the clothes i wear to Autozone always end up getting nasty stuff all over them... i use gojo and rub it in for a while.. maybe use some sort of nail brush to scrub it too... gets most of the stains out.. id say give it a shot and if it doesnt work, at least you still have some work pants and a container or hand cleaner for cleanin up afterwards...
