Hi all,
I will appreciate helpful replies. Please do not just slander me if you think I have no leg to stand on, please slander me and then give some justification & advice.
I am definitely feeling like I may very well have ****ed up last night. Me and my girlfriend of 6 months went to a formal event with a lot of our friends and then after that we both went to the club strip (she went with her friends, I went with mine, different clubs). At the end of the night I told her I was leaving, she can come with me now or she can stay with her friends. She chose to come with me and we met up. As soon as I saw her and what she was wearing, I thought one thing... trashy. She was wearing a mesh see through top with just a bra underneath. It looked like she was nude to be honest. This is where I may have begun my stupidity. The first thing I said to her was: "you look trashy". To which she replied, "hey that's not nice etc". I told her that it was the truth, and that's all that was said from that point until we got home. Which brings me to the next part.
When we got home, whilst she was in the shower I was writing down my thoughts on what I was going to say. I like doing this because it usually helps
me saying something dumb. After the shower, I told her I wanted to talk. I then said something to the effect of the following:
"When you wear stuff like that I can't help but think it's trashy. If anyone was wearing that I would be thinking trashy. My girlfriend is not someone who I wanna think is trashy. When you dress like that I find it disrespectful to me. I like when you dress sexy, but I want you to dress sexy for me me and not anyone else. I'm the one who has to deal with the comments and staring and all that ****. You can dress that way or you can have me as a boyfriend, but you can't have both"
What followed then was a discussion & my "justification" which eventually lead to "making up" and now everything is "all good".
I know I am going to receive conflicting opinions on this but I want to get a general idea. I put my stuff up in the "maybe" basket because I am unsure whether I am allowed to feel this way. My justification to her and my justification to myself is that; "as a man, I am naturally going to feel protective of women, especially my woman. It would be nice if we lived in a society where everyone could wear whatever they wanted with no social repercussions but that isn't the reality. There are creeps and predators out there that are going to see what you're wearing as a target and I don't like the thought of you being placed in a potentially confronting/ uncomfortable situation because of the extra attention you are drawing. It didn't happen tonight but I'm sure that if we were together and you were wearing that, there would be staring and wolf whistles and other sh*t from other guys and that is, as a man, going to make me feel stand-offish."
I know some people will think that "they love when their girlfriend dresses sexy and gets a lot of attention etc." But to be honest I don't, and I don't think I ever will. Yes attention because she has a pretty face and a good body okay I have accepted that, but attention because she is dressing like a slvt? Probably not.
I don't know if I have completely f**ked things up yet. She is still very loving and high IL today but I don't know if I have planted a seed in her mind that I am an insecure afc. If things fvck up, so be it and I find a new girl.
Is there a reality where I just tell her that this is the way I am, accept it or you don't have to be my girlfiend? Should a good woman be dressing to please only her man? Or is everything that I have just written just the most insecure, AFC bulls**t that you have ever read and in saying these things and thinking this way I have fvcked up beyond repair?
