thr1986 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 My girlfriend and I have been together over a year. She is really not the type to diet or go to the gym. She's in good form naturally and has a great figure. She changed jobs about 2 mints ago a d has a boss who is definitely the type to hit on girls left and right and is an attractive guy for sure. We got in a fight about 2 weeks ago because she said she was somewhere with her mom and she was actually with a girlfriend and her girlfriends husband. I have no idea why she would lie about that its not like I would care. Anyways, we resolved the issue, it was such a small lie I really don't care so I let it go. Now she is changing habits. Wanting to go to the gym, wanting to lose weight, getting some new clothes and all this new makeup all at the same time. Is something going on? Should I worry or is this normal?
meghann8 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Is she showing you all her new looks and dressing up for you? Do you guys go out to dinner and she wears all this makeup and dresses nice for you too? I know I go through spells where I'll be all of a sudden interested in looking amazing and dressing up just for a normal day. It could be nothing, but her new habits are worth observing further. If you haven't gone out to dinner in a while, maybe take her out and see what she does. If she dresses up and puts on all the makeup, I don't think her new habits are of any concern. If she wears old, bland clothes and doesn't try, that might be reason for concern. 1
Michelle83 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 I agree, they do say that sudden gym interest out of nowhere and related things can be a sign. Has she ever talked about making changes before - even hinting at it? By what you said it kind of sounds like not...She just be feeling more self-conscious and aware of her appearance now with this new guy around but if you guys are having issues or have, or she seems to be more distant, I'd be a bit concerned. 1
Noproblem Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 It's a girl thing Girls at her work are looking fit and good plus it's summer why should she change her diet and take care of her look? 1
neveragain34 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Does she like her new job? I started a new job last year and loved it; It brought on a new confidence and with that confidence and happiness I felt, I wanted to start working out more, getting new clothes, etc. Her behavior could just be part of the job change and wanting to do and look her best for it.
Author thr1986 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 She has always been very loving towards me. Holding my hand at the mall or rubbing my thigh during dinner and she is still very much that way. She will tell me she loves me out of nowhere all the time. Last night we went to the mall because she wanted some new makeup and she kept telling me that I was the best looking guy she's ever seen, (something she says regularly). She had the day off work and she waited for me to finish work for the day to go to the mall with her even though I told her she could go during the day. She kinda seemed like she wantwd me to go walk around while she tried on makeup. and when i came back she was still with the makeup girl trying stuff and did not ask for my opinion at all. (isnit just a girl thing that ahe did not ask for my opinion or does she not care an is it for someone else maybe?) I started to hint at the change in her habits and she said that she wanted to look good for me. She has said before that she thinks I'm more handsome than she is beautiful. She says its all for me, but the change is a bit sudden. Do you think this could be genuine and the change truly is for me? And what are your thoughts on her freeing like I'm better looking than her. I tell her all the time that she is beautiful.
Cutiepie1976 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 Your insecurity is going to kill your relationship. What woman in her right mind would ask a straight guy for makeup tips? Seriously!?! Why would you expect her to turn to you for advice on what makeup to purchase? It's spring! Everyone is focused on getting bikini ready and pretty in cute summer dresses. Deal with it...or break up already and stop the unnecessary mental torture. 2
meghann8 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 I'm beginning to think that you're over thinking this. You could potentially be making her feel unwanted, so she keeps telling you that you're the best looking man she knows and is trying to change her ways so you're more interested in her. Girls can over-analyze too! Make sure that you tell her that she doesn't need all the extra makeup to impress you and you think she's always had a rockin' body. You may think those things every day, but she wants to hear that from you! Make sure she knows how you feel about her, looks and all.
ForeverHopeful1 Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) Spring has sprung! I always focus on my appearance more during spring, summer and fall and then I'm in a "stay warm and screw what people think" mode for winter. Since I can't hibernate like I would love to do, I just wing it through winter. Lol. I have taken the time to do my hair and make up every day this week! It is a girl thing. I would have a heart attack if my husband thought I was going out of my way for another man. I do some of it for him but I'm usually making myself up to feel better about me and for myself. Screw boys! I wanna looking bangin'! Edited April 12, 2013 by ForeverHopeful1
Michelle83 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Okay, after that last post I agree with the others. I'd say she's VERY much still into you and you don't have anything to worry about her. This is a lot on her part to try and hide something if that is what she's doing. Sounds like she just wants to keep the relationship alive with you and I agree, getting too insecure and questioning her will just lead to problems between you two. My ex got really jealous and it really got to be a bit much. If her behaviors towards you start changing, then I'd start getting worried. 1
Lst11 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Maybe it's nothing but if you are worried talk to her. Girl's thing...
