Answer 1

You are not wrong, and you should wear what you want. Maybe he is feeling insecure because you look really nice and thinks that guys are looking at you and that you might find another bf or something. Reassure him, and make sure that your actions aren't sketchy (like that you are really flirty or flaunt your body) that type of thing. Because that will only reinforce what he probably already thinks and feels about the way you look. Also, take it as a compliment in a way that you look really sexy.

Answer 2

Don't try to change him. Just because he's the kind of guy who gives you advice about clothing, doesn't mean you have to follow the advice. You can calmly tell him, thank you for your suggestion. And make a decision that you feel good about. Just ease up, let him watch out for you, and you can make decisions about your clothes without reading him the riot act. It's not necessary to get what you want.

Answer 3

He has no right to tell you what to wear or what to do. Sounds like he has a bit of a controlling nature, make sure you don't put up with this now or it will just get worse over time. Set him straight that while you may be in a relationship you are still your own person.

Answer 4

As long as you are dressing tastefully I don't know why this dude would be telling you what to wear. Do you tell him what to wear? Probably not. If you are wearing clothes that are too revealing such as what would draw alot of attention to people, guys in general, then maybe you should value your guys word. Work it out by communication girl.

Answer 5

You're not old enough (or mature enough) to handle a relationship with one just man. If you were serious about this guy you would stop being a whore. But hey I'm only 19, what do I know right? GROW UP!!!!!!

Answer 6

He has no right to tell you how to dress. It is a control issue, it starts with what you can and cant wear and moves on to other aspects of your life. Thank him for the fashion tips, but tell him you will continue to dress as you please. btw..women don't get raped because of what they are wearing...if he thinks that he is really messed up!

Answer 7

There is nothing wrong with expressing yourself with your clothes.
Maybe he dosen't want other guys to look at you like perverts.. hehehe.. well whatever the reason i hope you can talk it out safely.


good luck

Answer 8

More power to you for being an individual. 22 is old enough to make your own fashion statement.If he doesn't like it perhaps you should think about there being more fish in the sea.

Answer 9

I think your old enough to protect yourself. You should do whatever you want! your old enough to make your own decisions and he needs to lay off. regardless of weather or not he is "looking out for you". Tell him to calm down and to not be so pushy. it's your life and your body and you are in charge of it noone else.
good luck to you.

Answer 10

have you told him how you feel? well, if you have, than thats a start. i deffinitly dont agree with the way your boyfriend is treating you, but dont expect him to take your critizism of him, if he stops telling you what to do.

good luck.
