It sounds like he is unsure of where this is heading…like maybe to the land of permanent frustration and celibacy.

He should dump you. If you were girlfriend material for him, you'd do more than just dress up.

I don't think this is a GIANT SURE RED FLAG that he is an abusive ahole or anything. But I do think its a very large signal that you are sexually incompatible and you should break up now. You are not into the same freaky stuff he is into, no judgement, just facts. You'll both be happier apart.

It doesn't matter if it's "off" to anyone responding. We're not dating him. If it bothers you, then maybe you should find someone who doesn't bother you and he should find someone who isn't bothered.

We’re both local and although we have fooled around we haven’t slept together.

Im getting back on the market after a very LTR so I'm pretty guarded, but am I’m a little prudish and hypersensitive for thinking this really really off?


Almost 3 months and you have not had sex? Yes he is beginning to think you are not interested in sex, you are seeing other people, etc. You are about to get dumped.

Ewww. Just no.

He would have logged in to the sight of my middle finger.

I hate to not give him the benefit of the doubt, but I'd run the other way.

So even if you don’t feel well and you don’t wear something sexy per his “request” he’ll still be upset? Run. He’s looking for a Stepford wife.

But you think his request was weird and made you feel “off”. Don’t overthink it - he’s not the guy for you.


Disagree. Saying “I request” comes off controlling, not sexy, plus they haven’t even slept together. This would put me off too.

He literally asked. He didn't say 'Wear something sexy, wench!' Then when you got offended he still tried to make it a flirty thing. You aren't ready to date and certainly not this guy. Let him go; he needs someone not looking for something to be offended by.

Request he wear a speedo and bowtie. Then ponder if the control issues and love slave role don't do it for you. Since after nearly 3 months he's all "if we were in a LTR", not "when we're in a LTR", find a guy who won't test you as a condition of being exclusive.

Run. This man is a controlling, entitled loser.

Specifically: On FaceTime? No way.

In general: Multiple red flags here for me. I would cut bait.

This isn’t your guy. If he were, you’d appear on the call in a lacy negligee/cute bra and panty combo/whatever you think is sexy.
