So my boyfriend of 7 months has a lot of jealousy issues. Last night we had a huge argument about me wearing what I want to wear. I really don’t know where to start with all this but he thinks some of my low cut shirts n dont show too much chest are too revealing. When I wear certain things he doesn’t like or “approve of” he won’t tell me anything. He would ignore me all day and go off with his friends at school. I ended up in tears mbecausethat day was the day before fall break and I was going with my dad for 3 days and I was supposed to his house after school to spend time with eachother and go see a movie which broke my heart.

A few scenarios:

his mom ended up calling me and told me that I could wear whatever I want and it was stupid of him to do that. I was literally crying to her !

In summer , It was a really hot day and we were spending the day together so I wore a pair of shorts and he ended up not talking to me the whole day and acting all different ):

In general, he ends up acting different and getting upset.

I dont wear short shorts, deep v necks , and “revealing clothing”

So this time I decided to stand my ground and tell him that I could wear whatever I want and feel comfortable in , and if he doesn’t like it he either needs to make the effort to change or we brake up since both of us won’t be happy, or at least I wont be happy. He told me “If you really loved me you wouldn’t just wear those things.” And “Is it really that hard not to wear things?” And I thought he was being manipulative so I told him and we ended things. Guess what he didn’t want me wearing and what we were mostly arguing about? A pair of leggings. It just pisses me off, and he always ends up in tears saying he will change and he will try, and saying to not end things. I never tell him he cant wear things ! I personally think it’s a double standard and it’s not fair. Was I overreacting?

He told me that he doesn’t like other guys looking at me but I can’t control that no matter what I wear . I think our relationship went downhill because of his insecurities and jealousy problems. Is he controlling? Manipulative? Please help me , I dont know if I should take him back or not.. I was so happy with him and I love him.. But I think this relationship won’t get better because of his jealousy.
