i mean… kinda. he’s allowed to be insecure. he’s allowed to ask you not to wear revealing clothes. you’re allowed to say no, i will where what i want. at that point he should either drop it or break up with you if he can’t handle it. a boundary means that HE has a limit, it doesn’t mean he can enforce that limit on other people

if he can’t handle a baddie he shouldn’t be with a baddie. idk why men get with beautiful women and someone expect them to change so other men don’t look??

Not a 🚩 just an insecurity he has. Just have a conversation with him about it

Not a red flag because he is being honest and seems to be good at communicating with you, BUT it is something he’s gonna have to learn to be okay with. At the end of the day he should be proud to have a baddie (you)😉

well tbh it's more complicated than that. yes that was regarding halloween and i wanted to go out and party and i maybe sorta bought a revealing costume behind his back knowing he wouldn't like it. i bought it cuz i thought it was cute and i liked it. he was upset that i went behind his back and he didn't like that i was wearing revealing clothing (what he said in the text) and me going out because it was "single people activity"

i tried but it didn't really go anywhere. i tried telling him that we have been dating over a year now and by now you should trust me. he let me go out last year because it was the beginning of the relationship

because people might want to party with their friends and their significant other might feel out of place with them. also it’s fair to just want to hang out with your friends sometimes. if yall are in agreement on that though then that’s not my business. but getting mad at you for both going places and wearing things is walking a fine line

especially when it becomes a double standard. like he’s allowed to out with friends but not you?

he never told me not to do anything in the course of our relationship and if i went to bars with my friends he wouldn't care

yeah i think ultimately he needs to get his insecurity under control and stop making it your problem. all you can do is give him reassurance but he’s got to stop subtly shaming you for being your own person
