Are yoga pants ok?

[Anonymous]

My boyfriend is upset because I wore yoga pants around him. We went to a bookstore and to grab a cup of coffee. He says yoga pants are for doing yoga, and that if he puts in real clothes to see me I should do the same.

You're asking the wrong question.

Frankly it's low-effort of you, the message you're sending is "I'm treating your visit on the same level as errands on the way home from a gym." Maybe to you that's great because you think it's saying you're so comfortable around BF, you don't feel you need to "dress up." But to him it might instead signal that you take him for granted as just part of the routine. Ask him.

Either write a post that says something or don't bother. Cut the cryptic crap.

Is it that cryptic? Fine. “Are you dating an a33hole?

Is that better?

It's not that cryptic. It doesn't really matter if yoga pants are fine. OP's boyfriend doesn’t like them. She can either stop wearing them on dates or decide she doesn't care and keep wearing them. Even if they are "okay" in some general sense, he doesn't like them. The question is, "how much weight will I give my boyfriend's feelings on this issue?"

OP here. I think to me it’s a compliment that I’m saying I’m comfortable around him. We go on formal dates frequently and I get super dolled up for him and enjoy doing so. On low key days I want to just dress relaxed.

That sounds over the top, OP. Is he controlling in other ways?

I’d dump him. High maintenance.

Bye boy.

Yoga pants are awesome. He's a dork.

Huge red flag. I’d absolutely dump him.

What man doesn’t enjoy seeing his girlfriend/wife in yoga pants?

My husband would love it if I wore them more often! 😄

Creepy guy. If you were to marry him, you would wear yoga pants. Does he care about you or your clothes? Very controlling.
