My Boyfriend Gets Pissed Off Whenever I Dress All Sexy


What guy wouldn't want to show off these delicious sugar lumps?


After a long hiatus, Jessie and Kyle are back to answer your delightful questions! You must be very excited. So let's get started.

There was a rumor going around over the weekend that Jennifer Aniston had her topless scene scrapped from her new movie, "Wanderlust," for her boyfriend, Justin Theroux. The rumor turned out to be bogus, but here's a reader question that relates:


Jessie and Kyle: I'm 22, in my prime, and I have a hot body. My boyfriend of six months, Jake, HATES when I wear sexy clothes. He thinks I'm asking for attention, and he doesn't like it when other guys stare at me. I don't get it. Shouldn't he be proud that he's dating a girl who's so hot?

Hello modest anonymous reader! It sounds like you're in quite the pickle. Oh, what it is to be young and beautiful with nary a care in the world.

I sort of empathize with you. Not in the same egocentric way, but I understand where you're coming from. I dated a guy who once zipped up my tight, cleavage-showing sweater because he thought it was 'too revealing.' I broke up with him the next day.

I mean come on, this is America.



Women are free here. We have rights. We're not forced to wear burkas, and we don't get caned every time we show bits of our naughty ankles.

In short: Your boyfriend needs to lighten the eff up. Hasn't he ever heard of the concept of a 'trophy wife?' Guys love showing off their ladies assets (pun deeply intended). If you were wearing skimpy stuff and flirting with other guys, that wouldn't be cool. But if you like the way you look, and he gets pissed when you flaunt it, it sounds like he's definitely not ready for your jelly.

I know a lot of guys are going to hate on me for this, but... I agree with the boyfriend here.  Now everyone, hear me out, please.

Relationships are all about give and take. If there was something he did which made you super uncomfortable, would you expect him to write a message to an advice website? Or would he listen to you and make the change?  I'm guessing it's the latter.

Here's the thing. I like the women I date to look presentable and attractive. And I'm proud of them for it. But when you start showing too much, you look desperate. Did you ever stop to think that maybe your humps and sugar lumps are way too accessible to everyone?

If I  had a girlfriend, and she looked as good as Jennifer Aniston does on those "GQ" covers, I'm not sure I'd be totally down with all the guys out there ogling her goodie bags.  And I'm not a jealous person at all.

Try to make a compromise. Maybe show a little less cleavage, or make sure your clothes aren't that tight. Enjoying your young, nubile body is what your 20's are for. But don't enjoy it too much.

 


What does everyone else think? Should guys get upset when their girlfriends show off the goods? Or is this particular guy acting like a frigid pansy?


Also, enjoy these pictures of Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux at the Wanderlust premiere on Friday. Even though they weren't pictured together, they both wore similar 'name rings.'




And here's the trailer for Wanderlust (unfortunately, it's sans Jennifer Aniston's topless scene):
