In a woman's eye, am I a bad person because I buy expensive fashions just because...?

Question

I want to look better than almost any other guy on the block whenever I walk out the door. For example, right now I'm wearing a $400 cashmere v-neck sweater and $800 dress shoes...because I am, and I'm not trying to be showy or anything, is that a character flaw on my part or are girls and women in general intimidated by guys who want to look good and not be just an average joe???

Answer 1

um... most girls probably wont like u because of ur clothes at first glance, but if they get to know u and ur not stuck up or anythin, they might like u. also, there are some girls who like men who dress nicely (i'm not one of them). but still, i think most girls like guys who like casual clothing and arent afraid to get all muddy when playin football...etc.

Answer 2

You honestly don't have to pay that much too look fantastic. I've bought cashmere sweaters for about 100 dollars, and they're just as good as your 400 dollar ones. You're really wasting money, man :/ And NO ONE needs 800 dollar shoes. That's just insane. Yes, you're a bad person in my eyes because you're stupid enough to pay WAY too much on clothing that could be bought much less with the same exact look.

Answer 3

Guys who make a point of how good they look and how much their clothes cost make a bad impression.  It suggests vanity and poor values.  If you're really not that way, stop talking about it.  Just look good and keep your mouth shut.

Answer 4

perhaps there is the thought in their mind 'how does he afford that stuff' and 'is he even saving for his future?'.  Money management is important to some women.  You may look like a name brand 'w***e'.  Frivolous spending can make some women take a step back.  It could also look like you are spending outside your means.  Now there are ways to look like it but not pay the hefty price.

Answer 5

you sound like you dress like a 70 year old man..

if you're 70, then have fun..

but if you're not..

..sorry.

Answer 6

It depends on what brand it is. If its Polo Ralph Lauren, j crew, Lacoste, Brooks Brothers, CK Bradley, Nautica, or Calvin Klein its completely okay. However if its Dolce&Gabbana, Gucci, or any of the high fashion brands then no they might think you're g*y. Not that that is bad its just not really what most women look for when they are looking to date someone

Answer 7

I'm not intimidated by guys like that.  I don't tend to find that quality attractive in a guy, but there's nothing wrong with it.  If you can afford it and it makes you happy, go for it.  There are plenty of women out there who are attracted to that kind of guy (my former roommate is one).  Good luck!  :)

Answer 8

the whole thing you say is kinda fake.

if you like gold diggers then your fine, if you want a meaningful relationship full of love then you are not fine.

most women like guys who where hoodies and jeans.

Answer 9

no that does not make you a bad person

but it could intiminate some people because it might come off that you think your better then them. but it doesn't make you a bad person.

Answer 10

If you look good, you look good. To me, and a lot of girls I know, it doesn't matter how much you spent on your outfit or whatever. Its just annoying when ANYONE (boy or girl) goes around talking about how expensive his/her outfit is. So just look good and who cares?

Answer 11

That's actually a good thing most guys don't really care much about how they look. But don't go broke.

Answer 12

i would just say keep the prices of your clothes and shoes to yourself.  a girl really doesn't want to hear a guy bragging about how expensive his clothes are.  just wear them, and know that you are looking great.  girls always notice when guys are good dressers.

Answer 13

Umm if I met any man who cares about clothing and dresses as well as you do, I might wonder if he was g*y.

Answer 14

You are not a bad person, but unless you have a well paying income over 100,000 they will consider you are credit risk who does not handle money well.

but you will look good

Answer 15

If you have plenty of money - it is okay.....if you are charging all these items - not okay.....(those are kind of expensive items - your money might be put to better use, someplace else)

Answer 16

you are either g*y (casheme V-neck sweater..nuff said), or too much in love with yourself if you feel the need to be that flashy and then ask about it..../

Answer 17

In my opinion

1) If you were a woman, you might be deemed high maintenance. Same applies for men, maybe some women might see you as high maintenance and not easy going.

2) I don't think its a character flaw to want to look good, everyone needs a good measure of self confidence, but maybe the need to spend a lot of money on looking good might seem like your are covering up some major insecurities. Or maybe it looks like you are trying to hard.

3) Some women do not prefer, metrosexuals. Some women might prefer rough and rugged, t-shirt/blue jean wearing, not afraid to get his hands dirty kind of guy. Whether women look at you and think poorly of you because of your taste for high fashion is a matter of opinion, and if someone is going to snub your for wearing nice clothes or walmart clothes, is not a person really worth knowing.

4) You spending habits might come into question. Some might think it frivolous to spend a lot of money on just a pair of shoes.

5) Maybe it could be intimating, they might not talk to you in fear that you might be a jerk to someone who can't afford the same monetary lifestyle.
