Woman Says ‘Upset' Partner Wants Her to Cover Up While on Balcony: ‘I Had a Fairly Hippy Upbringing'

A woman shared on the community forum Mumsnet that her partner has asked her to cover up more while on her balcony She said her partner thinks she is "fishing for attention" by wearing things like "a crop top and briefs" on the balcony Now she wonders if her partner is being "a bit controlling"A woman is seeking advice after her partner told her to cover up while she's out on her balcony. She shared her story in a post on the U.K. community forum Mumsnet, explaining that she lives in an apartment with a balcony that is two floors up in a converted Victorian building that overlooks a 'fairly busy street.' On the morning that she posted, she went onto her balcony while wearing "a crop top and briefs" because 'it was hot' and her son's partner had already left for school. 'He said if I'm going on the balcony can I put some shorts on. Weird because I'm essentially more covered up than someone would be in a bikini and it's my balcony,' she wrote. The woman went on to share that her partner also has an issue with her social media posts. 'He has also gotten upset if I've posted any stories on Instagram of me sunbathing with my cat on my balcony, suggesting I'm fishing for attention," she explained. The woman noted that her upbringing has influenced her style and attitude about things. 'I had a fairly hippy upbringing and don't really feel much need to cover up when it's hot because a body is just a body and I'm also very flat-chested with an ironing board body so I don't feel sexy anyway. I've always dressed quite tomboy too. I don't like attention, I just like to be comfortable,' she said. Now, however, the woman is questioning whether her partner is being 'a bit controlling' or if she should 'respect his more conservative boundaries.' In the comments, most readers agreed that the woman should be able to make her own choices about what she wears. 'In my view, nobody has any right to tell you what to do with your own body. And in your own house? Nope, not going to wash," one person wrote, adding, "Perhaps if you're more of a hippy, not too bothered outlook and he's more conservative in thought and deed you might want to think about how happy you would be as a couple going forward."

Another commenter wondered how many people were 'craning their head to look up at' the woman from the street and questioned if her partner was controlling in other ways. 'I think you just need to accept you're not compatible. Don't dull your shine for him, don't change your core self (hippy vibes), but also don't expect him to change his core beliefs on respect while in a relationship,' a user wrote, echoing advice given by many others.

Woman 'Finally' Built a Fence to Keep Her Neighbors' Kids Out — And Now the Neighbors Are Complaining

A woman's neighbors asked her to change the placement of her new fence because they can no longer fit two cars in their driveway The woman — who says she built the fence because of the neighbors' unruly children — is now wondering if she's being 'unreasonable' if she refuses She shared her story on Mumsnet, where the majority of commenters said her neighbors' parking issues are not her problemA woman is debating whether it would be "unreasonable" for her to ignore her neighbors' request for her to move a new fence in her yard. The woman explained in a post on Mumsnet that she 'finally' installed a fence on her property, after 'months' of her neighbor's children playing on her lawn, 'chucking soccer balls' at her house, 'constantly standing' by her living room window, and 'shouting and waking up' her toddler. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! While the fence immediately solved 'all the issues,' her neighbors are less than thrilled. She said that they told her they are now struggling to fit both their cars in their driveway, as there is now not enough space to open the driver's side door on one of their vehicles. '[The neighbor] has asked if I could move the fence further [in] on my bit, but it will impact my own ability to have two cars on my driveway,' the original poster (OP) said. 'AIBU [am I being unreasonable] to decline this, as it's on my own driveway?' Mumsnet users were quick to tell the OP that she has every right to build a fence on her own property — and that her neighbors' parking issue are not her problem. 'No, YANBU [you are not being unreasonable] — don't move it,' one person said, adding, 'They were using your driveway before for access to their car. [It's] not your problem if they now can't use your driveway.' 'YANBU in the slightest. Say no, unfortunately, you can't. The boundary is the boundary, and moving it would cause potential issues when selling,' someone else said. The same person added, 'I love that he also presumably wants YOU to pay so HE can park his cars. Just nuts …' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer​​, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. 'YANBU. If they had bothered to manage their children's behavior, there wouldn't be a fence. So it's a problem of their own making,' another chimed in. Read the original article on People
