I feel a bit guilty writing this but not sure what else to do.
I've been with my DP for around 2 years, when we met he wasn't exactly a "trendy" type but nothing too out of the ordinary. We lived at opposite ends of the city so he used to come and see me as he had the car, One day I suprised him and turned up at his house and he was wearing pink slippers, I made a joke about it and he said they were his mums but he found them comfortable so asked for them when she wanted rid , I said "does it not bother you that they're womens?" and he said "no, why should it matter?" I still found it funny but left it there.
Anyway on the odd occasion that I went I noticed more and more that he had strange habits when it came to clothes, he would wear a really feminine apron when cooking, the slippers and one time he even had a womans cardigan on saying it was his ex's but it was comfortable .
Anyway all this was last year, in the end we moved in together, firstly into my house and then we rented a place together, I asked him to get rid of the slippers and he said I was being ridiculous, he did however agree to get rid of the cardigan when I made out it upset me being his ex's!
Thing is my family quite often come down and I've just found out that they've all been having a good laugh about him taking the piss out of the slippers etc and last week a friend of mine brought my son his ps2 games back and saw DP's slippers and ran into the kitchen laughing asking me if he'd put them on as a joke.
We're having a group of friends over tomorow night and I'm dreading it as DP said he will cook, this means the apron AND the slippers will make an appearance and to make matters worse there will be male friends here tomorow too who are more likely to take the piss.
I know it sounds awful but it really embarrasses me, it winds me up that he doesn't care about people laughing and doesnt care about me feeling uncomfortable. Am I out of order to ask him to bin them? I've offered to buy him new ones but he says he likes the ones he has, stupid as it sounds it's really starting to make me feel bitter.
