What if my bf likes me dressing casual, but I like dressing nice- like heels?

My bf and I have been together for a while now and before when i used to work i loved dressing nice. Not Slu*y. (nice shirt, jeans, heels) or if you want to call it classy then ok…. so my bf and I are very very different. He loves dressing casual and it looks nice (jeans, t-shirt, and nice (shoes) jordans. He dresses nice for casual. BUT now if feel that i cant wear nice heals because he thinks im going somewhere or I feel weird because he is just dressed casual. And he tells me “I like when your not dressed FLASHY” and i hate when he tells me that because i like dressing nice for me and not for others to look at me. AND ANYTHING THAT IS NOT CASUAL IS FLASHY TO HIM LOL ..But before anyone goes ‘he doesnt trust you-he is trying to control you,ect’ MY BF IS THE SWEETEST PERSON ALIVE. He lets me dress how i want, never tells me what to do, and treats me right. but i just dont want him to feel weird if i dress FLASHY and him Casual..

Do you think it matters if i dress like that or should i make him happy and keep it casual like him :(

Answer #1

My boyfriend and I have a similar thing. I suggest speaking to him about it. Maybe when you’re not going some place special you can go casual but when you’re going out for the evening he has to dress up. That way both of you gets what you want. Oh and if he persist with irritating you with this, tell him that it is your body and you’ll dress however you feel like because it makes you feel good. (sometimes you have to stand your ground as well).

Answer #2

Dress how you like. Its your body. I don’t think its a big deal if hes casual and you dress a bit more fancier. Just do what makes you happy. :)

Answer #3

Maybe he’s jealous if other people look at you. Maybe he thinks he can’t match your style and wants you to adapt to his? Talk to him about his feelings. Just ask him why he doesm’t like this shirt or that dress. I’m sure you can get over this if you understand why he wants you to be the gray-mouse.

Answer #4

i can only say, sometimes……women must also meet the expectation for their men as well as the men meeting the expectation for their women…….

yes, dont matter guy or girl…..its your body you dress what ever you like but when you commit yourself into a relationship, it is almost like an invisible contract - that tells you what you can do or not do….. In a relationship its not only about one its about “us” as “one”.

you can work it out

Answer #5

dress however you feel like, what kind of dude tells his girl what to wear

Answer #6

he doesnt tell me how to dress.. he just likes me to be “comfortable”

Answer #7

uhm that’s just another way of saying, he tells me how to dress, but i dont want to admit it… he’s making you uncomfortable by doing what he’s doing, you’ve just said it… so why dont you just tell him that…

Answer #8

because he tells me to wear what i whatever i want.. but in my mind still feel weird

Answer #9

he loves the heels. no doubt. heels help define curves in the girls body and are just hot. maybe hes just trying to compliment you saying that u dont need to dress up nice to be pretty

Answer #10

he might just be trying to tell you that you dont need to “dress up” for him…the important thing is that you are happy with your appearance.

Answer #11

dose it realy matter wat he wears it wats under that counts stop being silly

Answer #12

I think it is just what attracts him just kinda switch back in forth or meet at a middle grounds.
