If someone new befriended you and immediately started dressing exactly like you, would that be jealousy 🤔 or flattery?

This is happening to me with my new caregiver who is 20 years younger than me - but of course I do dress pretty cool still. 😎
I don't want her to copy me. We used to do that kind of thing during our school days and it was okay 👍 back then.
It's creeping me out. She said when I first met her that she usually wears black leggings and a tight fitting T-shirt which is not very becoming on her because her tight T-shirts show her rolls of fat. I told her I have never bought or wore leggings and that I wear dresses 👗 more than anything. Now she's wearing dresses just like the one's that I wear.🙄

I think it's a bit strange, why would she do that? Unless of course you have an innate good taste and an aura around you, so she wants to be just like you.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think men are more relaxed about such things. I remember a couple of months ago, we went to a restaurant and the waiter wore the same t-shirt as I was wearing. We looked at each other and started laughing. On other occasions where I met someone who wore the same t-shirt or jacket, I just nod and say he has good taste.

Thanks for the MHO.

Sounds like "competition" what for?🤔 we don't know🤷‍♂️, we cannot know what's in her head, either is Jealousy, or some sort of "argument", or simply she just doesn't know what to wear, so Seeing you kinda gives her a sense of knowledge with sounds "slightly" creepy, or copycat...🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@sage2021 Its only ok if you both are same age, but

20yr younger, hmmm

Did she say why she's doing it?

[sage2021]

@kelly 6

Nope. I'm 71 and she's 53.

@sage2021
For that age, I'm sure she likes your fashion style better then her’s.
