I've heard a lot about one of the partners controlling who the other person talks to and all that but what about what they wear?
My friends have been dating for a while and the guy is always telling my friend to stop wearing tanktops or saying that her top is too low. Even when she wears a tanktop underneath the V neck, he makes her pull it up to almost her collarbone. If she doesn't listen to him, he gets mad at her. :S I think it's outrageous. I mean seriously, just because they're dating how can one of them be controlling what the other person is wearing? I would understand if she was wearing extremely revealing clothes, but she's only wearing a V cut shirt WITH a tank top underneath. I don't see anything wrong with that :/

What do you guys think when the partner is controlling what the other person wears?

I'd probably also say something about it, especially if other guys are checking her out and I'm like "do you REALLY need to wear that?" but in the end that's about as much as I can do.

Unless I want to be possessive

[mszpbshiix]

plain annoying.. i mean to an extent its cute if the dudes trying to help her coverup or something but controlling what she wears?? and that v-neck with a tank underneath couldn't have been that bad.

Unless he's afraid she's going to get sexually assaulted, it's likely the actions of an insecure guy who's afraid of other guys seeing how hot his girlfriend is and wanting her for themselves. If that's the case, all you do is wish her luck, because sooner or later that sort of insecurity will ruin a relationship.

Haha, my bf only jokes that if he gets his way he'd put me in sweats everyday. xD

But he doesn't really do anything. He kinda gives me a sad look and asks, "Isn't that a little too short? Do you have shorts underneath? D:!!" when I'm wearing a short skirt, but he never forces me to do anything. :3

[cheerydumdum]

i think it's ridiculous when that happens. i remember listening to this guy jabber to his friend about how his girlfriend was wearing a skirt that day and how he didn't approve and told her she couldn't wear it. he made it sound like he owned her. made me so freakin' annoyed. i think it's okay if they just mention that they're unhappy with what their s/o is wearing, but don't actually control them. if i was a guy, i think i'd understand if my girlfriend was dressed somewhat revealing because i'd probably get a bit jealous, but i would never try to force her to change anything.

if i want to look like a hooker, dangit it's my choice. if i want to bundle myself up like it's the second coming of the Victorian Era, then dammit i'm going to do it- whether my darling bf OR ANYONE for that matter cares or not. domineering men are really just insecure BOYS.

[_ATELIER]

ridiculous. i'll wear w/e i want to wear.

[x SaRaNg HaE x]

He doesn't want any other guy to check out his girl.

My cousin's boyfriend won't let her wear anything that shows her shoulders or too much legs.

[Christinaisweird]

Worst than most dads in television. My bf always gives his opinion on what I would wear, but in the end, I'm like ," W/e I wear what I want and when I want." Then he gets mad and then it just cools off.

[xsaranghae<3]

rofl, id beat my boyfriend up if he did that
haha, but i dont think that they should be able to control what you wear
its liek controlling how you express yourself

[Regina Rae]

Guys that like are insecure. Plain and simple.

[seafood]

^^^same here. . My boyfriend don't control how i dress he state his opinion sometime but i never really care. If i can't feel comfortable in what i wear then there no use in wearing it.

[It4cH1]

pshhh girls, you can only say stuff like that...cause guys don't have any part of the body that'll attract the other sex like boobs or legs would.

if showing my man boobs would make girls all aroused and horny, im sure my gf would disapprove too.

[Humilious]

my clothes are just whatever so my boyfriend never says anything. if i do wear v-necks and skinny jeans and stuff he says i look nice but i just don't like wearing those kinds of things.

[forgottenmemories]

I don't think that's normal at all. That's just too controlling. =/

But my boyfriend doesn't say much about what I wear, unless its something he doesn't like a design or the style of it, he'll tell me he doesn't like it. And that's fine because I like his opinion. But if he ever gets pissed off at me for wearing V-necks WITH a tank top underneath, I don't know what I would do.

[CharlotteDarcy]

What we wear is personal. You take that away, you take part of my personality away.

[clee86]

It really isn't their place to control what she wears but I'd be upset if it was way to revealing.
I wouldn't control but I'd at least voice my opinion on it.
In that example though, I don't see how it is a problem.

[moot11]

Messed. Deal breaker for me.

[sake-nya]

Mine doesn't really mind 'cause he likes it when I look nice when we go out, lol. He just whines if I look like some emo. I think he'd just laugh at me if guys started checking me out :s

But if he did try controlling what I wore, I'd just break out the hooker clothes and run around the neighborhood. I don't need 'im telling me what I can/cannot wear >:\ Especially if I'm more fashion-conscious than him.
