If your partner enjoys dressing up for fun, it shows creativity and a desire to keep things exciting. However, it might signal that he struggles with responsibility.
Multi-Partner Fantasies:

Power & Control:
A little dominance is normal, but if it's always about control, it may hide insecurities.
Adventure:

Flexibility:
Openness to new experiences is great, but constant novelty-seeking could mean avoiding emotional connection.
