My girlfriend always wears revealing clothes. How can I convince her to wear more baggy ones?

[DavidKk889]

My girlfriend always wears revealing clothes, like bodycon dresses, see-through shirts, crop-tops and etc. Whenever I argue with her to NOT wear them, she just says that 'A girl has a right to feel beautiful and you got no permission to tell me what to do' or something like that, But it's really annoying, seeing all the guys checking her out and winking and flirting and I always have to intervene and say she's my girl. She really sounds like a hoe, a bitch, but she's not, she's just really outgoing. How can I convince her to not wear those clothes?

If your girl gave a shit, she'd tone it down a notch. It isn't really a lot to compromise on. When she's with you, and out of respect for what you mean to each other... because all that matters are each other... She could easily choose to simply make a few changes.

Then you get comments like ''She should wear what she wants. If you’re insecure that’s your own issue.''

Or...

''Don’t. She’s right, she should be able to wear whatever the hell she wants. ''

...

''Hopefully she'll see sense very soon indeed and dump your sorry a**. ''

Notice anything in common with those statements? They are but a tiny sample of the female collective consciousness. They collectively don't give a fuck about anything for the most part, other than their own desires, attention, and needs. There are rare exceptions.

The way I see it is, if you are in a relationship, you make compromises if you can. Yet some how this is seen as you being controlling, insecure, or an asshole.

Your real mistake though, is trying to treat a party girl like girlfriend material. GF's are a myth. I should know, I've been hit on by enough of other mens gfs...

What you should do is as follows...

Don't force her to dress the way you want. If this is how she wants to dress, she has the right to do so.
Look at it this way: what if she constantly would tell you that you need to wear revealing clothes, would you change?

[DavidKk889]

I don't know maybe

[DavidKk889]

Cause I'm a man and she's a girl and she's in a relationship

[BlueWiZ]

If she feels like she looks beautifull when she wears revealing clothes, it would be weird to ask her to wear anything otherwise.
She thinks it would make her be less attractive, and that's not how a relationship should make you feel.
You need to accept that she gets this attention, and let her do what she wants in that aspect. Or let her go completely, because this is unfair to her.

I wear casual shirts and jackets sometimes that i take from my boyfriend and baggy pants because i hate jeans, and i feel beautiful. A girl doesn't need to be dressed like a 20 dollars whore to feel beautiful, i think its very disrespectful that she is giving other guys eye candy, even when she is hanging out with you. You should probably break up with her, sounds like she doesn't have much respect and decency for you, this a potential cheating girlfriend in progress

[JulieXO]

Don’t. She’s right, she should be able to wear whatever the hell she wants. My ex criticized my wardrobe as well and I absolutely hated it. It makes you seem overly jealous and controlling.

[EmmaMary]

You can't tell her or order her to do anything she doesn't want to.
Simple isn't it?
Hopefully she'll see sense very soon indeed and dump your sorry a**.

[DavidKk889]

My sorry ass?

[EmmaMary]

Sorry that should have read your f****** ass.

Do not try to control her. Accept her how she is, or not at all. It could cost you the relationship if you do not lay off telling her what to do.

Thank you for MHO!

You can't control her, but you can control what you will do and what you will tolerate. It sounds like she's more desperate for outside attention more than anything and you find that to be disrespectful towards you. So here's what you do, you tell her that you find it disrespectful towards yourself whenever she does that and if she still continues to do it, then you kick her to the curb and find a woman who will not disrespect you like that.

Not gonna lie mate, but a girl has the right to wear whatever clothes she pleases. It seems this is more of a trust issue than an issue with how she dresses. She is right, girls have a right to dress how they please (aside from going completely nude). You just have to trust her enough that she will say she has a boyfriend, which is something i think you cannot do.

[Cosytoasty]

Isn't it a compliment that they check her out? If they didn't check her out even wearing that it, would mean she is fugly. Also a girl who is going to be "lured away" by some random guy winking at her is not a girl you want to be with anyway.

[Rj02011982]

She should wear what she wants. If you’re insecure that’s your own issue. Unless you think she seeks sexual attention in an unhealthy manner. Then suggest herapy for her.

[snowangle]

You can't. She can dress how she likes.
