My girlfriend doesn't dress very classy (she like to show off her body). When I first started dating her (we been together for a year now) she wouldn't even dare to dress like a slu*. She wears clothes leave a little imagination and its really bugging me. I want to say something to her but I don't want sound controlling. She doesn't like when someone tells what to do or what not to do. What should I do?

I think that your girlfriend could be doing this because she wants attention from you. Make sure you're spending plenty of time with her, being afftectionate, and treating her like a lady. I suggest taking her somewhere where she has to dress modestly, and telling her how beautiful she is and how happy that she is yours. Hope this helps!

Honeypie agony auntTake her shopping and pick out an outfit or two, something you like.... Compliment her when she wear something you do like.

Most women go thru phases of dressing a little slutty.

And yes it would seem a little controling if you tell her how she should dress, but on the other hand if you don't like it you should be honest. Good communication is key to a good relationship. Is she dressing this way for you? or for strangers?

Does she just dress slutty or does she act slutty too when you are out?

Chisa agony auntI wonder if she wants u to say something. u say she didnt dress like that brfore you met..maybe u should just tell her hoe u feel but mske sure u tell her that u arent trying to sound controlling. If she says that it makes her feel pretty then maybe u should reassure her that she is already beautiful and doesnt need to wear revealing clothes for her to see it.

just tell her to not dress "slutty". If she says that she doesn't and denies it or seems like she doesn't care about what you think, then she's not a good girlfriend. Tell her to tone it down a little.

MutantKitten agony aunttry making a deal with her?

I'm sure there's something about you that gets on her nerves too. You could try...

"You know I feel a little uncomfortable when you wear X, but it's your body, I can't tell you what to do with it...however....if you leave the turquoise spandex tube dress in the closet this month, I promise to wash all my shaved hairs down the drain/not pick my nose and wipe it on the wall/pleasure you orally/rub your feet/watch those movies you love but I hate all this month too."

alternately there's the old buy her a nice NEW item of clothing that she likes but isn't so revealing.

and one I'm ashamed to admit to but will fess up to doing to a past boyfriend.. throw the hated item out/ruin it with bleach and act innocent later. Try to reserve for the worst of the worst and only as a last resort. Also don't do this to her favourite item or she may never forgive you.

jackie rose agony auntif you really like her then like her because she is who she is.and if she dresses like a slut then other guys might want her. maybe she is dressing like that because she wants to be yours only.
