| I'm a very open minded person and I love it when my wife shows off her beauty. That being said I’ve come to the conclusion that she dresses inappropriately for events. It's one thing dress rather skimpily on a normal day, but we've been to a couple of events and I've heard jokes from the guys and feel the glare from the women. This is a touchy subject and I don't want my wife to swing completely the other way and start dressing like a Big Love sister-wife but do I owe her the conversation about it? |
"start dressing like a Big Love sister-wife" Hilarious.
Can you give us an idea of what she wears? Any Google images that show comparable outfits? |
OP, assuming you are not trolling, be proud. When women hate what I am wearing, I take it as a compliment, seriously! Women can be insecure and go off about just about anything, to their own detriment. MY DH loves when I show off my body. It makes for part of a happy marriage
|
| In "ugly hollywood"? Seriously OP? Take it as a compliment. |
| OP. Not trolling here at all. I'm all for beauty but at a wedding or a child's birthday party I feel a bit uncomfortable when my wife's boobs are falling out of her blouse. Think the Latin wife from Modern Family. None of her friends dress like her. She dresses like it's Miami they dress like its Connecticut. |
|
Let her know that you love her breasts and would like them to remain a secret. Between the two of you.
Is you wife Latin and everyone else in your circle is a WASP? |
| Have you tried buying her clothes that you would like to see her wear? That may work. |
|
Connecticut needs more Miami. Your wife sounds like a character, and I'd like to know her.
(This coming from a pretty crunchy gal who is far from the VaVoom type) Its a sign of strength that she maintains her personal style even when she's with others who dress differently. A good example for your kids - if you have any... |
The breasts in question are hers, and she can show them around as she wishes. |
This seems like bad advice to me. A gift that is meant to suggest a style change is not a gift at all. Its insulting. You could, possibly, try complimenting her more when she is wearing something more conservative. Like "Oh Baby, I love it when you're dressed up all proper. So hot." Or, just let it go and enjoy having a bold and beautiful wife. |
|
She dressed this way when you met her, right?
If it doesn't bother her, let her dress how she wants. She's an adult. If she asks for your advice, then give it to her. |
If she's dressing more sexy than skanky, I say be proud. I consider my outfit a success when women turn green with envy and their husband pant. I dress to please my husband and myself, but if others think I'm hot, then great.
OP, be proud of your wife. Don't let the criticism of others color your view of her. Are YOU happy with what she's wearing? Would you feel uncomfortable if others weren't judging her? If so, you need to examine why the approval of others matters more than your wife's happiness. |
| What kind of jokes have you heard? |
| OP, she dressed this way before you married her and now, because some women are jealous and their husbands are envious, you want to tell her what to wear. I hope she bops you over the head. Also, you are either turning into or always have been a control freak. Leave her alone. |
| OP, i wish i had your wife. |
