Husband Complains about Flirting- Part 3

By Dr. Coach Love

 

Please check back for Parts 1 & 2 to catch up with this discussion. Here

are more ideas to consider in the big picture of your husband’s view

that you are flirting.

 

Question #2 BOUNDARIES

If you are frequently offended in any way by the attention you typically receive, then you have the option to exercise your right to dress differently—-regardless of your husband’s request. Chill or get off the chair. You can, of course, (continue to) painfully spend your time being assertive/aggressive setting your boundaries with intoxicated or otherwise overly friendly men.

 

Question #3 OVER-THE-TOP DRESSING 

One person’s idea of sexy can be considered either conservative or slutty by others. And while you are your own judge of what is appropriate for you, how much in line with the social norms are you with your style of dress? If your level of sexy dress is comparable to the other women, they may also be drawing similar attention.

 

Question #4 PEER GROUP REACTION 

In order for you to enjoy the couple get-togethers, getting along with the other women is likely important. If one of them gossips about you or seems to snub and be jealous of you, her husband may be putting you in the middle with his attention to get a reaction from her. Possibility here?

 What do you think? Check back for questions six through nine. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

Dr. Coach Love
