How have you all been dealing with people who find your modest dressing silly or outdated and poke fun? I have an extremely leftist mother and she insinuates that I dress like a grandma or I look too conservative.
Everyone else I know constantly says how classic and elegant I look and most importantly, I feel more beautiful than I ever have with the way I dress. However what my mother thinks of me if very important and I wish I could help her understand.
She didn’t have a problem when I dressed extremely provocatively but she’s pushing back kind of hard now that I’ve changed my style and made changes to my personality to become more soft and feminine. She finds my being feminine a bit laughable:(
I’m going to talk this through with my therapist to help myself internally, get through to my self esteem etc. But I wish I had something to tell her. Thoughts?
