That hurt her feelings, too. Apparently, she is five foot seven, and her boyfriend is five foot eight. So they are close in height, but she had never seen him so insecure before.
That’s why, at the drop of a hat, she went from feeling super confident to feeling, well, awful. And in the end, she wound up just changing into some flats for the wedding. Then, she decided to return the brand-new high heels as soon as she could. Now, her boyfriend did insist that she should wear whatever she wanted.
“But I no longer felt confident in what I was wearing,” she admitted.
However, the wedding was just over a week ago. So, the other day, her boyfriend noticed that the new high heels were still under the bed and had the tag on.
Apparently, she had ultimately decided not to return the shoes after all since she remembered how great she felt when she first tried them on. Her boyfriend didn’t know that, though, so once he saw the shoes, he reminded her to return them before the deadline passed, and she couldn’t get her money back.
At that point, she was forced to reveal how she decided to keep the shoes. She also explained how she would just wear them whenever she went to work parties or went out with her friends. Still, her boyfriend just looked super disappointed. Then, he even said that she “didn’t need to be like that.”
So, ever since then, she’s been left wondering whether telling her boyfriend she’ll only wear high heels whenever he’s not around was the wrong way to handle the situation.
Did she have a right to keep the shoes? Should her boyfriend’s insecurity dictate what she can and cannot wear? Could she have handled this situation better or not? What would you have done?
