Would you change the way you dress for someone?

Question

Let's say you like wearing a certain outfit after you get serious. You're going out into public, Would you change the outfit because they thought you looked too sexy and they wanted you to wear something less sexy? Or would you tell them to go f**k yourself, I'm wearing this?

I’ve never been asked to change because I looked too sexy, or not sexy enough. However, if I was going to meet someone in my fiancé’s family and he asked me not to wear something because it’s too short, or too revealing and might be offensive, then yeah, I probably would. It’s just common sense. I would never wear anything inappropriate to a funeral, but if we were going to my fiancé’s grandmother’s funeral and I decided to wear a red sundress, and Lee asked me to please not wear it, I wouldn't!

It’s not about “I’ll wear what I want” it’s about give and take, cooperation, and respect for your partner. I’ve seen women wearing completely inappropriate clothing for the venue in which they are present. I wonder if he politely asked her to not wear that to church, and she yelled back that she would wear what she wants!

So I suppose the short answer is yes, with a qualified maybe. I guess their motivation is everything!

I hope this helps.

I've been dressing the same way for years. Never been told I dress too sexy, so maybe this doesn't really apply to me. But I won't change anything about me to satisfy someone else, never again. I live for myself.

Yes, I would and have.

I have always been very minimalistic and as a result of that I had very VERY few clothes when I began dating Raine. I dressed purely as was practical for maximal comfort and utility (I know, boring right?). For reference, when I moved (before dating her) I packed all my clothes into a single carry-on.

Since I began dating Raine, my wardrobe has grown and seen significant change. I knew when I started dating her that I wanted to dress in a way that would pair well with her style and be more attractive to her.

Anyine who enters a relationship hoping to change the person is a masochistic fool.

DizzyDesii · Answer

I’d say “let me wear this and you can take it off of me in any location you want” (public sexcapades) haha 😋

RebelinSteel · Answer

I will invariably dress how I want, however I will also dress suitably for the venue, occasion, and to not look like some clown who has this ‘I will wear what I want no matter what’

for example day to day would be jeans, however if we were going out to a higher end restaurant then would be more smart casual.
also I live rural and tend to wear clothes more fitting to the countryside and it would likely be her that would need to change what she’s wearing, heels and the countryside are not a great match.

It depends on what they want to change, how much and their reasoning. For example, if we’re going somewhere and they don’t like what I’m wearing coz it doesn’t fit the setting of where we’re going then yea sure. If a have a dress/top I wear all the time that they don’t like and want it gone then sure is be willing to let go and get rid of it.
If it’s just out of nowhere you want me to stay dressing a certain way and wearing things I’m not comfortable with then no. If this change isn’t going to have any benefits or positive impact. Then no.

Wallythewalrus2 · Answer

It's always been a part of life for me. They don't "make" me dress a certain way but will buy me clothes for birthdays/holidays and put the pressure on to wear what they bought me. It's the same as cologne, I don't think I've ever bought a bottle of what I like. I honestly don't care.

dustybiker2 · Answer

They won't ask. But there has been times when I will have to ask them because of their behaviors. My shoes are thought to be inappropriate for the day or something. It's always been thoughtful so yes I will consider it.

Alli112 · Answer

Pretty sure I can make a decent decision on what's socially acceptable for a given location/event. "Too sexy" honestly isn't a good reason and probably just indicates jealousy/insecurity to a degree that results in controlling behaviors, which is not a trait I look for in a partner.

mstbooblover · Answer

Generally I don't give much attention to what I wear, but in the frame of going out with someone I appreciate, sure I would listen to their wish in that field if any. I feel this as a form of respect in order to be confortable with each other in public.

molonski2 · Answer

I personally would not change , but in the situation presented I would certainly expect my partner to change , its just the nature of respect , and you need to portray the message that you are in a relationship , this I always find just naturally happens so I'd never have to present it as a request , its just common respect for the other party.

So my answer is " None of the above " .

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

If my wife sees what I'm wearing and says you can't go there wearing that it is inappropriate, then yes I will change.. she has way more idea about clothing that I do!

Although, to be fair she will change too if I say the same, or usually I just laugh then she playfully wallops me and THEN changes.

Anonymous · Answer

I prefer to not give any input on how a girl I'm dating dresses because I get to see her organic nature. If she likes to dress in revealing clothes for other dudes, I know exactly what's in her mind and I get to cross her off the LTR list. But if my girlfriend asked me not to wear clothes that show off my bulge, I'll do it for her out of respect.

xavid9 · Answer

If she's my loved one I'll change my style but not permanently because I want to match my comfort and if a person whom I don't love randomly says me to change my style then I'll not if she's a girl or a boy

alice55 · Answer

Finchie40 · Answer

NathanDavis · Answer

nope, not happening... what you see, is what you get... lol

SamanthaSamantha99 · Answer

It depends. I understand if I were to be showing some skin I would change just like I wouldn't want my partner going out in something that outligns his package. But if I'm wearing something comfortable and he wants me to dress sexy what do I do? I wear what I am comfortable wearing

Nikki1989 · Answer

Not a chance. I have been dressing the same way for 20 years or more. I am not changing my habits now.

sage2021 · Answer

Yes, I would change it for him and put on something less provocative. Why make your guy uncomfortable all night when you don't have to?

thatshydork · Answer

No, but then again my wardrobe isn’t all one style. I’ve got flirty pieces, emo pieces, hippie pieces, sporty pieces, etc. so my style varies from day to day.

exitseven · Answer

Yes, I started wearing underwear for my wife.

OhLongJohnsoning · Answer

No, probably not. I'm going to a thing here in a couple weeks, to cosplay, and i invited this girl, because i KNEW she might enjoy it. That's not "changing her", that's just inviting her to something that she would enjoy, based on what she does already

IslaTheWitch · Answer

if his suggestions match my style... I can consider them, but I wouldn't change my style for someone...

Ms_Facesitter · Answer

If I'm comfortable in it, I might wear it every now and then. But he liked me for who I was before, I'm not really going to change. And I hope he doesn't either.

DishLady · Answer

Not really. If they have a favorite color -- or if they took the trouble to buy me something -- I'll try to wear it when I know I'm going to see them. But generally I wear what I like (what suits my personality and figure).

Phoenix98 · Answer

I might add some things that they'd like if I liked them to and wear those now and then but ultimately my style would stay the same.

4ngelic · Answer
