Imagine this: you’re just living your life, dressing in your usual style when, suddenly, a close friend asks you to stop wearing makeup and switch to baggy clothes—all that because her husband might have a crush on you. This is exactly what happened to a 29-year-old woman (OP), whose viral Reddit post sparked debates about friendship, boundaries, and self-respect.
The OP begins her post with a shocking revelation: “My (29f) friend (31f) has told me that her husband (35m) has a crush on me.” Naturally, this admission left her feeling awkward, but things escalated when her friend asked her to stop wearing makeup and switch to baggy clothes whenever they were around her husband.The request came to a head during a group dinner at a “reasonably expensive restaurant.” The OP explained, “There’s nothing I could wear that is baggy that would have suited the restaurant we were in. My style is very conservative, and I was wearing a very average dress with heels.”
