7 Ways to Avoid Becoming Your Boyfriend’s Fashion Designer
5. Accept your boyfriend for who he is
It is nice to expect your boyfriend to look and dress in a certain way but that doesn’t mean you breathe down his neck if he thinks differently. If your boyfriend’s taste in fashion doesn’t match to yours, you may have to let go of the nit picking. You cannot change the choices of a person beyond a certain point. Instead of breaking your head over micro managing his clothes, lovingly accept him for what he is and move on.
6. Don’t compare his fashion sense with that of his peers
Once you start comparing your boyfriend’s fashion sense with that of his peers, you risk putting the last straw on the camel’s back. Remember that you are not your boyfriend’s fashion designer and you cannot dictate terms for every single thing that he puts on his body. Making comparisons will cause further resentment between you and your boyfriend.
7. Know his taste in fashion
If you really want to get a sense of how you can revamp your boyfriend’s wardrobe without putting him out of his comfort zone, take him shopping with you. Pick on a clothing item, ask what he thinks about it and tell him that you plan to gift it to your brother or a cousin. Your boyfriend is likely to give an honest opinion since he knows he isn’t involved. This will give you a clear idea of what he likes and doesn’t like and how you can add to his style without making him feel uncomfortable.
