You Always Think There Is Someone Hitting On You!

Today I took my daughter and her cousin to the local YMCA to go swimming. They had the day off of school and I had the day off of work. Well, my daughter's dad stopped by my house when we got back and I was looking what I consider, nice today. I had my make-up on, etc.
Well, he said, "Why are you all dressed up?".
I said, "I'm not really, just wanted to look nice today because we were going to town and you never know when you might meet a guy".
He asked, "Did you?".
I said, "Well, the lifeguard kept coming over and talking to me and he told me one time that I could move a chair down by him if I wanted".
He replied, "You always think there is someone hitting on you".
I didn't say that the lifeguard was hitting on me, I just said that he was talking to me. I don't know why it is such a big deal to him anyway, I'm single.
So, here is a picture of me from today(the sun was in my eyes, so not really a good picture but you get the idea), do you think I look dressed up, nice, or tacky, or whatever? I want to know so be honest!

[i]Hahaha..I guess he is jealous or don't like you to meet someone else.
hmmm...is there any plan of coming back? I wonder...
For me, you are not dress up, just a regular attire of someone who wants to relax and have fun![/i]

I am blind when it comes to things like that. It is hard for me to tell if a guy is trying to hit on me or not. Then again I do not get out that much.

Yeah, I sometimes have a hard time telling too. I don't really think this guy was hitting on me, I think he was just trying to be nice, but I never told my ex that the guy was hitting on me, just that he was talking to me.

Well, repetition of earlier responses, but honestly, you look absolutely OK for a day at the park. Neither are you tacky nor OTT in any way…maybe your ex is quite undecided himself! I do remember certain other posts of yours pertaining to him and his to leave-or-not-to-leave attitude!

Yes, he still has that attitude. It really irritates me. I think he like to play with my emotions, the key is, for me not fall prey of it all.

Thank you! I'm glad someone thinks that I'm worthy to be hit on. 
I think you are right, he is worried that someone is hitting on me and he is also a jerk, so he falls into both the categories you mentioned. Thanks again!

Hi singlemommy,
You look nice and you are dressing for the weather, its nice and sunny, I don't know what he is on about, but I think he may be a bit jealous of you talking to the lifeguard, tough, it got nothing to do with him anymore who you talk with.

True. It has nothing to do with him. He asked if I had met someone and I simply answered his question. I talked to the lifeguard, what is the big deal, right? My ex is engaged to be married, so it shouldn't be anything to him.

And yes, that was my daughter in the background. Her cousin took the picture.

You ex sounds like one of those guys that doesn't want you but doesn't want you to be with anyone else. Why should it matter if you got dolled up? What does he care if you think someone is hitting on you? You are single right? As long as what you wear is appropriate for your age and body and the occasion and doesn't embarass your kid that is all that is important.
Let me ask you something. Did you feel good when you looked in the mirror before you left home?

I felt wonderful about myself. I've lost 33 pounds and I feel so different when I look at myself in the mirror.

That is so awesome! You should feel great! Keep it up! He was just being a jerk because you are losing weight.

I think you look nice. It's a casual outfit, not dressy, and you look like you're out for a day of fun. What's the matter with that man? Aren't you glad you're rid of him?

You look fine, I do not know your dressing style, but to me it looks like a nice sunny day and you are dressed appropriately. Your ex seems to think or whats to think that you can't get someone else. What does it matter to him, you are single and am free to flirt or do whatever you want. Your ex, needs to get over it.

I think you look lovely! Not flashy at all, you're dressed to be both comfortable and casual, as well as presentable and approachable.

Maybe he's jealous. But if he is not part of your life anymore it really isn't his business if someone is 'hitting on you' or not. I would tell him to but out and not to ask questions he might not like the answer to. I'll look at the picture after this posts.

Iwould suggest you don't tell him anymore and if you want to dress up and look nice it is up to you.It sounds like his life is not going very well,so he comes over to have a go at you and pick holes,tell him to clear off,he comes to see his daughter not pass comment on you.Ex boyfriends can be a strange breed they feel the need to put you down,and make you feel bad ,well don't let him.Take no notice.xxx

Hi,You look great.To be honest,you might be jealous with each other and you both don't know this.You wanna let him know that there is possibility to meet another guy.However,your husband just want to knock you down.You loved each other before and even have a daughter.So no wonder you two have such a feeling.It seems that there is no chance to be together.So just be yourself and confident.Have a nice day!

Hi ya singlemommy
I would not have a clue if a guy was hitting on me or no. I don't go out much and during the day I am so busy I don't stop long enough for someone to hold a conversation with me!! I don't think I have ever really been hit on anyway! Maybe once or possibly twice in my younger days but certainly not in the last 10 - 15 years or so!! I think you look nice in your picture, not too over the top. What do you care what your ex says, tell him to get over it and move on. Why should he care if you think people are hitting on you either?

Just do not listen what he said, maybe he wanna be like you, but he can't. Just be as yourself, do not care whatever he has said.
