What should I wear on this hopeful first date in cool Aussie weather?

[MissSunshine2]

I was meeting all losers on dating apps, so I closed them all. Then I tried a Christian dating app. As I am an Anglican Christian, but not very strict. I got hit on by a Catholic Christian. He seems like me, not too religious, but he believes in the same stuff that I do. He’s sort of cute and he flirts in a respectful way. For the first time in a while, I felt hope about the possibility that the right man is out there.

My mum’s birthday is on Anzac Day, then the next weekend is the gala night; and I’m having my girl friends over. We’ve agreed to go out in a few weeks, after all of this is done. So, the question is, what should I wear?

it’s getting cooler now in Australia, as we move towards winter. Should I wear a multicoloured sweater and nice trousers, or a layering sweater with a trench coat and pants?

I just told him, because I’d rather be abandoned early than late, if it’s going to happen, that I’m a mild schizophrenic. He claimed to be fine with it, then he started treating me like I wasn’t human, something to be feared and disappeared. I’d gone from being an attractive, intelligent, interesting woman to being damaged goods, ‘handicapped.’

I love winter fashion. I think the winter is better to look elegant than summer. I suggest wearing layering sweater with a trench coat and pants and prefer colours like brown, dark blue, grey, claret red e. t. c. instead of very colourful tones. They are more suitable for winter look.

I have actually no idea what you should wear, but I'm really happy for you.

[MissSunshine2]

Thanks, it might come to nothing, but it’s definitely worth a try and I don’t think trying can hurt me in the very least.

[Grond21]

Well said. I hope you feel happy with your outfit choice

Yeah, sure he is a Catholic Christian. Prepare to be disappointed.

[MissSunshine2]

Well, it was a Christian dating app, but I see your point, regarding the number of losers and anonymous trolls online these days.

[sage2021]

Multi-colored sweater and pants.

[sage2021]

At least he showed his true colors now and decided he would be better off not getting involved with you.
I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. 😔

[MissSunshine2]

Oh well, that’s what I always figure. There’s a fifty percent chance of meeting another ‘expert;’ who’s got their degree off Doctor Google and Social Media. But I haven’t given up hope. Half the world are ok with it. If it wasn’t my schizophrenia, something else would’ve scared him off.

[sage2021]

Some guys are kinda weird that way. It doesn't take much to scare them off

[MissSunshine2]

That’s true.

[sage2021]

Thank you for the MHO 🙂🧡

Well it depends on a few factors... like where are you going for example. But I would wear something that shows respect for him but makes you feel happy and comfortable. You can do the full dress up thing on later dates right?

[David__951]

I’m really curious/surprised why did he treat you like that based on your update to the question

[MissSunshine2]

I guess he acted really interested but at the first sign of giving anyone different a shot, he balked. He’s probably not strong enough to cope with my mental illness. Even though it’s mild, I’ve been told that I’m very bright iq wise and I can work part time.

[MissSunshine2]

I present as pretty, outgoing and articulate. Still, that’s not enough for some people and I just have to accept that.

[David__951]

Mind sharing what you are going through as a mental illness? You can send it in a DM if you don’t wanna share that in public ofc

[MissSunshine2]

Okay.

[Jerre]

I’d wear whatever you are most comfortable wearing.
