Her Best Friend’s Basically Wearing Underwear For Halloween, So She Asked Her To Pick A More Appropriate Costume For Trick-Or-Treating With Her Little Sister
Ever since this 21-year-old girl was 12, she’s been best friends with a girl named Ellie. While they’re besties, they’re polar opposites.
Ellie loves a good night out on the town and frequents clubs, but she prefers relaxing at home with her family or going out for brunch.
She doesn’t judge Ellie for being more outgoing. She knows they’re at an age where going out and having a good time is a priority for Ellie.
About two weeks ago or so, she and Ellie were chatting about what to do together for Halloween, and she said she’s going to take her 9-year-old sister trick-or-treating.
Ellie had previously made plans to go to a club with some other friends, but since Ellie would prefer to spend the holiday with her, Ellie agreed to go trick-or-treating, and then they could go to a club later together.
They discussed costume ideas briefly, and she teased Ellie to pick something that would be appropriate for trick-or-treating.
Yesterday, Ellie video-called her to show off her outfit, and her jaw hit the floor.
“I’ll try to describe it as well as possible: it’s a dark red latex miniskirt, a dark red latex top that’s kind of like a bra, and then the top and bottom are sort of tied together like there’s a few strips,” she explained.
Ellie is also wearing garters, and her outfit is hardly suitable to wear around little kids. It’s basically underwear.

“She looked awesome, but I told her that her outfit wasn’t really appropriate to trick or treat with children,” she added.
“I told her that it was amazing for the club, but maybe not to be around children and parents. She told me that there was nothing inappropriate; she was dressed as a devil like many people/kids.”
She asked Ellie to please wear something different while they took her little sister trick-or-treating and suggested she change into that costume prior to heading out to the club.
That only enraged Ellie, who felt that she was shaming her. Ellie also accused her of being envious since she’s not pretty enough to pull off such an outlandish outfit.
Ellie then threw it in her face that she’s clearly concerned about not getting enough attention on Halloween. She had no idea what to say, so she remained silent as Ellie went on her tirade.
“I’m saying this again: I have no problem with the outfit itself, and this is not me trying to control what she can or can’t wear,” she continued.
“I’m just saying, we’re going to be surrounded by children, so it feels inappropriate. I don’t necessarily feel like my request was unreasonable, but I can understand why it feels controlling to her. I don’t know. Am I in the wrong here?”
