Boyfriend dress sense

[Poppalina37]

I really don't want to get burned for this!

I've met the most wonderful man.....

Except the way he dresses gives me the ICK....

I'm not exactly fashionable but I wear a lot of Joules, and Boden. I'm 42, he's 49. Generally look smart, well kept, nice hair and nails.

He wears tracksuits; joggers and hoody's... he has a rather large stomach too... so this attire may help cover his shape.

I visited friends over the weekend and this came up.... we weren't slagging him off.... I just mentioned I found it difficult as I like a well dressed man.

This isn't a financial issue.... I believe he could afford better clothes.... I could also afford to take him shopping. I just have no idea how to do that.

Also, I'd be gutted if he hated how I dressed.

Advice please x

OP ignore the people judging you on bodem and joules, this is completely unrelated to your point and you know AIBU bright sparks will always find something to tear a poster up (highly doubt they would have the guts to do the same f2f)

Yes he should dress better, yes you are allowed to be turned off - make no mistake - if he did not like your belly or clothes he would find a way to tell you.

I’m still curious about what outfit he chose for the 1st date and a few dates after - sorry if I missed this info.

Either way he is probably super confident or has issues with his self steem but you either take him or leave him. Either way it doesn’t hurt getting to the root of his lack of self care.

You’re totally right. This site can be so double-standard
