writes: I see this guy every day and every time we pass each other the flirting is intense. This guy is gorgeous and I love his mannerisms and find him intriguing, and would love to get to know him further. The only issue I have is that he very well dressed, I can appreciate that but it makes me question why would he be interested in me because I don’t wear heels, I wear flats, I don’t wear lipstick, I prefer lip gloss, I don’t buy popular branded clothing, I am very low maintenance as I choose comfort first over fashion. I appreciate a well-dressed person but I do not agree that it needs to be a necessity; I am worried that because I do not follow his desire for fashion we will not have anything in common; therefore it will not be worth pursuing him. Do you think this is an issue or not?

he likes you for the way you are and your dress sense too. i think you're also being too harsh/critical on your fashion style (some flat shoes are very cute and of good taste too). He definitely enjoys spending time with you and your personality, and that's a way better criteria to build a relationship on!

No self-respecting guy-flirt pays even a whit of attention to a woman's clothes....
After all.... what we "see" when we "look at" a woman is her, naked..... and - as for her clothing - the most you can expect is that we imagine them in a heap, on the floor, next to our bed.....
Good luck....
P.S. I can make you a "W-KBN" T-shirt, if you'd like. "W-KBN" is "Well-known Brand Name"....

There is more to a person other than the way they dress.
I think it would behoove you to look past the superficial and understand that most decent people do too.

He's flirting with you now in your 'unfashionable' clothes so he knows how you dress and is still interested. It doesn't mean you won't have anything in common. Think about any relationship where the woman is very into fashion and the man typically isn't, they still work out well and have enough in common to make it work. You won't ever find someone who has all your same interests. Go for it!

oh please... go for it...
i dress as fashionably as I can at my advanced age... i can't wear heels any more due to my back... but other than that i'm fashionable... to the point of looking a bit like mutton dressed as lamb.
my husband... jeans and a teeshirt...
work is always dockers and golf shirt...
home: sweats and a tee shirt... although I can get him to clean up well.
the key is good grooming...
I think it not an issue...

If he flirts with you, it's very likely that this will not be an issue. People don't flirt unless they're at least a bit attracted to you. Plus there are different ways one can interpret the term "well dressed." To me it just means that someone takes care of themselves (as in: good personal hygiene and clothes that aren't damaged).
Give it a shot!
