i go to a catholic school. and i wear a school skirt. i have a boyfriend who hates that i wear my skirt short, and is always ragging on me about it. he says he doesn't want other guys looking at me. does he not trust me or something? my skirt isn't shorter than any other normal girl wears theirs. all of us wear them like that. SO NOW WHAT?

A lot of that kind of nonsense comes from a territorial feeling over a female. Surely he liked the skirt and thought nothing wrong before you were together - now you are His and you need to do better? Nonsense. If you allow someone to decide how you dress today, where will be the limit tomorrow (what you say, who you say it too?). I would say cya!
Peace!

I think you should be seriously looking into just being friends with this guy. It's kinda scary that he is letting you know how he wants you to dress. If, in all actuality, your skirts are no shorter than any of the other girls then he has NO right to rag on you. If he is this way now, and this turns into a more serious relationship, what else will he be trying to control. Pretty soon he will be telling you who you can see, when you can see them, where you will go, what times to go, etc. Give a lot of thought into your situation and relationship. Do you want to continue this way? Good Luck!

A jealous boyfriend may just be insecure, too young and unsure of himself. On the other hand, if he is sixteen or older, watch out. Jealousy is the one behavioral characteristic in men and women that cannot "change" or "go away." Now if he is "ragging" on you because it is too short, that is, in bad taste, he's making a statement, an opinion. But if he tells you he is jealous then his statement is an order and an order will be followed if he is a jealous, controlling person. You ask "so now what?" Tell him the skirt is the same as the other girls, in good taste and that's the end of the discussion on that subject. If he doesn't let it go, you go. And fast.

It sounds like your guy is very insecure about himself, not you. Anyone with common sense would realize that your uniform simply makes you conform like everyone else, and a skirt that every girl wears wouldn't attract more attention. If he still is uncomfortable with the fact that you are required to wear a skirt at school, you should consider finding someone else. Someone who is possessive like that only gets worse...

He sounds like the jealous possessive type... Just tell him he doesn't pick your wardrobe... Jealousy is usually a self confidence problem... After you wear longer skirts, it will just be something else, like talking to any guy other than him, etc... He should just get over it... You probably wore it before you met him, so what is all the sudden harm? Why do you have to change for him?
These things just get worse... If the guy is controlling or jealous, it will just snowball...

the place the hell became your mom once you needed her to guard you?!?! I admire the reality you have forgiven her - you're a enhanced individual than i'm, i might by no ability forgive my discern in that kind of undertaking! My very own opinion aside, try calling her, or emails. locate some way of communique the place your 'Dad' won't be able to hover over her. Take it sooner or later at a time. yet in addition, supply your self with protection from sadness, and understand interior the back of your ideas you could lose her back. yet ya understand what? You have been positive for 12 years with out her, you would be positive for 12 extra if want be :-)

First, the skirt. Next, he's telling you not to go to the gym. Then no evenings out with the girls. Finally, he's jealous when you spend time with your family.....sorry, but that's a warning sign that I've seen (and experienced) with controlling men. Set it straight. It's your skirt, your body, and your decision. Period. If he doesn't like it, he's got 2 choices: deal with it, or find someone else. Plenty of fish in the sea -don't get stuck with a shark!!!!

No... Jealousy does not mean that your boyfriend loves you, it means that he is insecure.
Personally, I would tell him to deal with it or leave. If you give in to him about this now, sooner or later, you will be wearing ankle length skirts and your boyfriend will be beating you with a stick everytime the wind catches the fabric and your leg shows...
Your body- Dress like you want!

Ask him if it's the skirt that makes him nervous or the fact that he doesn't think you could restrain yourself from another guy? Make it VERY clear to him that you don't want anyone but him. That's the only way you can clear this up. I mean it's not like you can change the dress code or anything. I wish you luck.

Your boyfriend is not your parent. He cannot and should not tell you what to wear. If he doesn't like the UNIFORM that you are REQUIRED to wear, tell him to get a different girlfriend. The only reason he acts like that is because he's insecure. If he's worth keeping around, make sure you tell him how cute/manly/hott you think he is every once in awhile. The male ego needs stroking, apparently.
