I told my girlfriend I liked the way she looked when I met her. She had a nice hairstyle and makeup and wore red lipstick and lipgloss. But she stopped wearing this when she was with me. When I asked her why, she told me because I told her I like her look. She told me she can look pretty for other guys because they dont tell her they like her look. Should I not have told her?

Well I'm sorry... Sounds to me like she's either not that into you or she's lazy (not that you have to be lazy not to want to get all dolled up all of the time, that’s normal). The whole not doing it because you told her you "like her look" is a cop out. You are obviously telling her you liked when she dressed up and if she still won't do it... I don't know what to tell you. Never think you shouldn't have complemented a woman, that's just faulty logic. It also bothers me that she said she "can look pretty for other guys"???... What? Uhh... If she's not doing it for you when you are asking and you two are a couple, but she would do it for another guy... There is something fishy going on here. Good Luck.

Well, i think that she should still look good sometimes..I mean you dont want her to look like a slob all the time, right? But it shouldnt matter if she always doesn't look the way YOU want her to. I mean if you really love her than looks shouldnt always matter. If she looks really bad one day, you should still tell her she looks gorgeous. If it bothers you, than I think you should go talk to her and not keep things bottled up inside..they will only build up emotions and one day there will be a million things that you dont like about her and then its all over. you should just tell her how you really feel and just do it in a nice manner. Maybe you could say something like, "I always think you are gorgeous, but I want you to dress up more around me...you look she pretty and It really makes me happy and I love it when you put on your makeup and look so cute...." I dont know, but YOU should come up with something, really just let it all out...tell her how you really feel. If she really loves you, then you should be able to talk about this to her no problem and she shold have no trouble talking about her feelings with yout oo. Then maybe you can understand where you are coming from and her-you. I think couples should be able to say whatever they really feel and still be able to love each other just as much. I know it seems like you have to work up a lot of courage just to go this, otherwise why would you be asking for advice? but you should really and you need to go have a nice conversation with her..good luck- im sure it'll all be ok an you will be happy in the end with whatever you choose to say.

I'm not sure why women in general just stop looking their best once they have someone. I guess they feel that they don't have to doll up anymore or think it's pointless.
You'll either have to live with it or ask her if she could look her best when you go out together (the other times shouldn't really matter). There's not much you can do if she is not willing to look her best when your out together (sorry). She may agree or she may be insulted and angry by your request but if it bothers you now ,it won't get any better.
Remember, looks mean nothing if you truly love this person, make sure your doing this for the right reasons (not your own ego boost). Good luck

why don't you buy her a red lipstick and say "hey babe i saw this at the drug store and thought you'd look hot in this color". or maybe next time shes looking through a magazine look at it with her and when you see someone with their make up all done up tell her she should try that. Good Luck.

We girls spend a lot of energy looking good for guys. But I don't think it's wrong to tell her what you think. Just don't make her feel bad about herself.
If you want her to doll up for you again. Maybe you can offer her something in return. Does she nag you about not getting something done? Maybe she would like you to get a haircut?

In all honesty, you shouldnt even project. seems have no longer something to do with women individuals liking men. Your sturdy finding, yet while your ex unquestionably left you for that idiotic reason, she is a piecce of crap. the 1st few days (or weeks) of a destroy up are problematic, esp. if she left you for somebody else. yet dont lose your character.

I think you should tell her in an alluring, suggestive, teasing way that you miss seeing her old look. Say something like, "That red lipstick really got me going..."

it was right that you told her but she might have felt that u liked her completely based on her physical appearance so she took it off showin herself naturally and and might have wanted you to like her based on personality aswel if you tell her that also say i how u like her personality too so it balances it out
