I recently moved to my partner´s country and the culture is really different here. Prior to that, we´ve been together for almost a year, long-distance. Now I´m in her country (both of us are women) and she's been taking care of me a lot, helping me out with errands, food and financially, too. However, she started telling me what & how I should wear to different places.
Some of it made sense - for example, that you won't get into a bank in revealing shorts here - but some really bothered me: she commented on how I should wear a particular t-shirt and that my way of wearing it makes me ´look like a nerd´. She said she just doesn't want me to get picked on.
Or I was about to go to the corner shop and was just about to change my homeclothes when she came up and said ´lose it´about one peace i was about to change anyway. These comments bother me cause I feel like I am an adult and can take care of what I'm wearing myself and unless it´s a formal event or a conservative / religious community, I can always wear my jeans and t´shirt. I don't have a revealing extravagant style, anyway.
Do you think her comments have a place or is that something that has to stop?
