A female Canada age 30-35, *U22L3D writes:

I'm in a relationship w/ my bf for a year now. Do you think it's okay for a girl to wear whatever she wants to in a relationship? I know the basics that a girl shouldn't dress all slutty without the bf around, or even at all; BUT I feel like I can't wear skirts to school because I have him on my mind... my skirts are NOT short at all. It goes by school dress code; i'm 5'2 and when I have my hands by my side, my skirts are either 1cm below my middle finger/ 5cm above my middle finger. do you still think its acceptable?

Not My Name agony auntDitto, what everyone else has said, ..but make sure you are firm on this if there ever is a first time a clothing comment is made.

My guy used to not like some things I wore initially, ... (I mean things like just a v neck long sleeve top coz you could see the a tiny bit of the top of my clevage - oh wow big deal lol), and would yank my neck lines upwards and hate it if he saw anyone happen to look there, ... but I just laughed at him and told him too bad, my body, my clothes, get over it, ... and he did. I don't think I have heard a single peep in over 6 months.

chigirl agony auntWear whatever you want. You can wear slutty clothes as much as you want too! Why not, it's not like guys should touch you just because you look hot, they are responsible for keeping their fingers to themselves. Dress in what YOU feel comfortable with. I think you are overanalyzing the dress-code. Think about this: would you want to be in a relationship where what you wear is controlled by the one you date? Or would you want to be in a relationship with a guy who loves the way you dress at all times?

Dress the way YOU want to dress. If he's got a problem with it, too bad for him.

veronika agony auntIt's your body, wear what you like.

I don't know where you get the notion that girls aren't supposed to wear certain types of clothing just because they have boyfriends. To me, that's a little absurd.

Forget going by silly rules like "I should be wearing ____ instead of ____ because of my boyfriend" and just dress how you feel comfortable.

TasteofIndia agony auntSounds completely okay to me. You should be able to wear what you want to wear, nobody can control what you choose to put on your body!! Just choose respectfully, as CaringGuy says.

Wear what you like. You're not dressing slutty at all. Respect that you have a boyfriend, but don't let a guy control you
