Man Forces Wife To Wear Revealing Bikini For His B-Day Pool Party, Backtracks But It’s Too Late
Mutual respect is ever so important between partners. It’s hard to imagine any long-term relationship being happy and healthy if one person constantly tries to control the other. If you’re constantly making your partner do things they’re uncomfortable with, things are on rocky ground.
And you should be very careful what you wish for! An anonymous woman opened up to the r/AITAH community about how her husband wanted to show her off to his friends on his birthday. So, he asked her to wear a thong. However, he later regretted his decision and tried to get her to change bikinis. You’ll find the full story and the advice the net gave the woman as you scroll down.
Some people are very domineering in relationships which can make life hard for their significant others

Enforcing healthy boundaries is good for everyone
There are lots of different types of boundaries. Verywell Mind notes that the most common ones are emotional, intellectual, physical, sexual, time, communication, and material boundaries. Many of them revolve around the idea that it’s alright to agree to disagree over some things.
For instance, intellectual boundaries could mean respecting your and your partner’s right to disagree and have your own opinions. Meanwhile, communication boundaries involve having clear rules when it comes to arguing, including not calling each other names and avoiding rehashing older, irrelevant arguments.
Sexual boundaries include any needs and limitations that a person has relating to sexual interactions. This can range from where and when someone feels comfortable with intimacy to what kind of contact they are (not) comfortable with.
Setting these boundaries is a win-win for everyone because they empower people and give them autonomy. Healthy boundaries help protect a person’s individuality, identity, thoughts, and feelings.
Furthermore, firm and healthy boundaries promote respect and set expectations. They also protect a person from situations where they can be manipulated or taken advantage of. Boundaries are also proof that you and your partner are communicating with each other about your needs. And that can bring you closer together.
Boundaries are a core part of any relationship, but they’re especially essential wherever romance is concerned. They protect us and our needs. However, nobody is a mind-reader. Even something that sounds like common sense might not be obvious to your partner.
So, it falls to each and every single one of us to communicate our boundaries and then enforce them if/when someone ignores them.

Open and honest communication forms the foundation of happy relationships
The story made a huge splash on Reddit where it spread like digital wildfire. At the time of writing, the anonymous author’s post has 22k upvotes and 7k comments and counting. Unfortunately, the author deleted her account after her story went viral, so we were unable to reach out to her for further comment.
A ton of internet users from all corners of the globe wanted to share their perspectives on the sensitive situation. Many readers were genuinely shocked that the OP’s husband treated her in such a demeaning way.
From some netizens’ perspective, the issue wasn’t that he wanted to show her off; the problem was that he only wanted to show off her body.
One redditor wrote that the main issue was that her husband treated her as a piece of property and eye candy for his party. “He wanted the attention of his buddies saying how lucky he was. He wanted the feeling of having a hot servant girl bringing his every need whom he can ram after the party. He wanted to feel like a big shot,” they shared their interpretation of the situation.
What complicated everything was a lack of open and honest communication from both partners. It’s a cliché at this point, but transparency and proper communication are inescapable if you want to have a serious relationship built on trust, not guesswork.
For instance, the author could have pushed back against her husband’s initial idea for her outfit a bit more strongly. She could have explained to him how his behavior and requests are making her feel and that she feels deeply uncomfortable doing what he’s asking of her.
Saying ‘no’ is a reasonable stance to take. Just because you refuse to comply with your partner’s request does not automatically mean that the conversation has to devolve into a massive argument. Any healthy relationship involves respect for boundaries and privacy.
However, the core issue was still the man making his wife uncomfortable and then flip-flopping on his request.
He could have been far more empathetic and put himself in his spouse’s metaphorical shoes. Good partners consider each other’s feelings, wants, and dislikes. On the flip side, they’re also not afraid to voice their opinions and desires either. It’s a give-and-take sort of situation.
How would you have handled the situation if you were in the story author’s shoes, Pandas? How do you handle requests that make you deeply uncomfortable? Share your thoughts with everyone else in the comments.

My dude, she's your wife, not your doll to play dressups with. This whole situation is just disgusting.
That chick always looks so scared and sad when I've seen pics of them. I try not to but sometimes they pop up out of nowhere.
Load More Replies...This is beyond gross. My dad was like this with my mom. He saw her as an object that he could show off and be the envy of other guys. Then they got older and he realized she wasn't young anymore. He started making comments about how she should dress, and wear her hair so she wouldn't look old. He absolutely lost his mind when she decided it was easier to let her white hair grow in, instead of dying it. He actually told her not to attend one of his work functions because he was embarrassed to be seen with her. It should come as no surprise that he traded her in for a girl not much older than I am. If a guy treats you like a shiny toy, he'll have no problem ditching you for a new toy when your shine wears off.
Obviously, he wanted his "birthday" cake and eat it too. Wear this tiny bikini with your a*s and nips poking out, I want all my friends to see what I'm tapping tonight. Oh. They're "looking" at you. You're mine. MINE! Me no wanna share. No look at me sexy wife!! Cover up!! Do what I say!! Whaaaaaa! 😭
That last comment on the post is absolutely baffling to me. The commentator's point is that she's TA because she spitefully refused to change the bathing suit he asked her to wear and she shouldn't have done that on his birthday. Oh my f*cking god. That can't be a real comment.
Who are these people? This can't be a real relationship. Also, 22 is too young to be married.
My mom was 22 when she got married (my dad was 25)… This was in 1972, if that matters. I’ve since told them both they were crazy to get married so young. My mom had been parentified by her mother and my dad was a man-child, and this dynamic hasn’t changed much over the years.
Load More Replies..."but I felt bad saying no to him on his birthday." STOP. Say "No". Something makes you uncomfortable? I don't care what day it is, it's the day for you to say "No." NEVER let yourself feel guilty about having boundaries. Doesn't matter this guy is technically your husband. It's a disrespectful order and you're right to not feel right about it.
He's not just an idiot, he's also an indecisive idiot. The moral fibre and brilliance of this brain is what you're choosing to build your future and that of your children on?
Controlling what someone wears is as massive red flag for domestic abuse. If he's behaving like this now, it will only get worse.
I hope this is a wakeup call for her and she divorces him. It's not going to get better. Why was it ok for her cheeks to be out but not for her breasts to look bigger?!?! WTAF?
Removing the pads shows off the shape of the breast more and may mean the nipple is visible.
Load More Replies...I'm sad for any woman who would agree to something like this when she wasn't comfortable with it. Your body is your own - you're not a show dog.
Most people barely know themselves at 22 and are not ready for a lifetime commitment. His obvious immaturity is a HUGE red flag and they are heading for divorce.
I'm sitting here wondering if those AITA posts are real. This sounds sooo made-up, like an drama from afternoon TV. But maybe I'm just an old fart from another part of earth (and I used to have different problems at 22), so what do I know....
For future reference in life in general... anytime that inner voice tells you no or I'm uncomfortable or this makes me feel weird or bad etc, don't do it. Listen to that voice. Anyone that loves you or cares for you, partner, friends, family should never put you in that position in the first place. But if they do, no is a complete sentence. Their reaction to that no is not your problem. If you start worrying about pleasing everyone at this age you will spend the rest of your life doing it. JUST SAY NO
What's next? Lend you too a friend to see how good you are between the sheets, and then get mad at you for doing so? That is exaggerated, but if he is a bad guy the event above is the first step (though he wouldn't apologize and make you feel more guilty) Back to the current issue: if you feel comfortable in your own body you can show it if you want to. But if you don't, don't let yourself be talked into it.
Wife=property=basic christian conservative "value". If you think getting told what to wear is bad...just imagine your husband pissing away your medical autonomy with his vote. Not that that would happen... I mean, that's crazy talk right!?!? No woman with an IQ above room temp would find it acceptable right!?!? Any party that transparently freedom crushing would have zero support right!?!? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Husband got taught an important lesson. Would not call him controlling like some of the reactions, but he certainly admires and is proud of his wife, (which is a good thing) and likes to brag/show off (which can be risky). His latent puberty-atitude came whirling back and smacked him in the head. The adult thing to do would be to apologise to his wife.
Yea, he's a stupid little boy who made a mistake. HOPEFULLY. This behavior continues, he's getting worse and will not be changing soon. If he realizes what a bafoon he was, there's some hope there. We live and learn, if we are willing to deal with someone else's growth alongside our own, with respect. We should all be good.
Load More Replies...A man showing off his wife (for her look) is so low. Doesn't he have other things to show off, like his intelligence maybe? I guess not
He's totally in the wrong but she should have put her foot down and said no in the first place WTF?!
They both messed up, I see as they are 22, it is one of "I did a stupid thing when I was young lol" things you come back to, but she could have put her foot down, but then there is the way I WOULD HAVE DONE IT I would have come out in the MOST SEXIEST DRESS, face full of makeup and everything, and be like "Oh! this? he told me to dress sexy~ Something about... Want'n to show me off? so I did hahaha~" (this is better when you realize that I am 38yr old Gay Male, and have done something like this to someone who was an AH}
I bet I know exactly what happened. He wanted an ego boost and was expecting all his friends to congratulate him on marrying such a hot wife. That didn't happen and instead, he got treated to having to watch all his friends google her and possibly get flirtatious with her. This falls under "careful what you wish for." I would not be at all surprised if one or more of his friends approached him asking how he could "allow" his wife to dress like that in front of so many other men, which may have made him feel emasculated (whipped). I bet he won't ever make that request again...
That sounds like 22 year old frat boy thinking not husband material thinking. Don't get married young guys, there's no need to. The worst thing that's gonna happen if you wait is you break up and then your glad you don't have to go through divorce proceedings or you stay together and you'll know eachother more, have a deeper connection and be more established financially. There's no down side to waiting a few years. I know people may not want to here this but you are not gonna be the same person at 32 or 42 than you were at 22. Your priorities, needs and your perception of life and love is going to change as you mature.
Nobody should be wearing butt floss in public ever! I would have flat out REFUSED to wear it when his friends were there. He wanted to show you off like a possession and got mad/jealous when he got what he wanted. He is definitely a major AH.
Both are stupid. Your wife is not an object to exhibit. And she should stand her ground from the beginning.
It would be interesting to hear what the fight was about, her doing what he said, her not doing what he said. Also, why did he get charged up when his friends responded to his sexy wife? AND what friend ogles his pal's wife openly at a party for the pal? So AHs all around except the wife, she might need police protection.
It is a interesting starting point for a movie. You look great as possible scriptwriter. Write the full draft script and send it to Netflix,
The man has no respect . He’s treating the woman like a piece of meat. She should have told him to wear a thong.
Your husband prostituted you. What a massive red flag this is. he will break you but by bit. Get out while you can
Actually ESH, you didn't WANT TO wear it or take the padding out THEN when he says change into something you'd be ore comfortable in you say no. He's TA for asking and putting it that way, you're not Barbie doll. and You're just being a b***h by NOT saying think about THIS the next time you want me to be sexual provocation for your ego in front o your friends and changed FOR YOUR OWN COMFORT.
Ok, she stood he ground now, but putting the goddamned thing on in th first place isnt to far?? Ops husband is threatening her like a possession my advice: Run
Husband begs wife to wear revealing bikini to "show her off" to his friends. (Eew) Wife grudgingly does so. Husband gets exactly what he wanted, and as a result yells at wife. OP, your husband is a major a*****e. Expect the domestic violence to being within two to three years.
This is the first stage of "grooming"... wherein, your "husband" will request you do more and more uncomfortable, overtly sexual things, and then act as though you're the one in the wrong. This will end one way: you'll become his prisoner, and possession with no rights and no voice of your own. Get out now!
Our society encourages men to objectify women and for women to not only be objectified but to not speak up about it. The young lady in this post ended up in a situation where she had to battle the preservation of her own worth with a sincere desire to also make her husband "happy". Should he have asked her to do that in the first place? Heck no. Would it be ideal if she had the voice to stand up for herself, yes but obviously she hasnt had an opportunity to develop that quality yet. Though she did make attempts to be heard and he shot them down so she justifiably shut him down in the end.
Ew. Serious, cataclysmic ew. Ick on an almost astronomical level. What a fuϲking wanker. Why do women STAY with αssholes like that? She’s older than sixteen, she should know better than to put up with this pubertal mess.
I wouldn't have done it even for a private evening together to "spice up our sex life". He's such an idiot for being upset that his friends would be salivating over your body. What did he effing expect? Ditch him.
What irks me about all these comments are the people that are screaming "leave him" "he's an toxic as****le" " divorce him instantly" "don't marry at 22" We know nothing about them at all! This is one incident at one day. Yes, he did wrong, yes, at this specific moment, HTA. But please, hold your horses! He might see he's wrong. He might see what he did to her. It doesn't sound like he's constantly controlling her and such. Marriage isn't something to throw around, leave and go again. We shouldn't judge their relationship thru just this one thing
Put him in a banana hammock with a huge sweet potato. Then parade him around serving drinks to a Bachelorette party.
If one is truly grateful for what they have, then there is no desire to show off.
her husband is a creep, and likely one of those morally bankrupt Andrew Tate fans.
Both still children, maybe they'll figure it out when they are older and married to other people.
If he's telling you what to wear, it's just the begining of controlling your behaviour. It starts with a rather innocuous thing and the pushes boundaries until all boundaries are broken . Get out now.
Question (non native English here): is "ogling" always a disrespect/negative thing? I mean, if I feel/look pretty I don't mind people watching. If I'd have a fancy dress on I wouldn't mind people looking and admiring it. Would it be nice if it was ignored? If I feel confident in bikini (it differs from time to time) I don't mind people noticing me and watching me. It's not that they are not allowed to look at my breasts if I'm walking around topless. But leering and sexual hints is a no. Also only looking at them, also while talking, would be a no. Sneakily looking would be ok imo. I about is sometimes hard to divert your eyes when you see something interesting. So, back to the question: is ogling the disrespectful looking, or is it he secret but respectful "wow she looks good!" looking?
Ogling is the disrespectful kind of staring. We don't know which it actually was in this case. His friends could have been doing the respectful type you described, but it caused the husband to feel jealousy, so he wanted her to cover up. She never actually described the friends doing or saying anything disrespectful to her.
Load More Replies...Honestly adult brain development isn't complete till like age 25. It's why we should change some decisions. Like getting married before that.
No, she shouldn't have refused to change. But she should have done so and could have done so with dignity. I'd dress however comfortable or whatever I'd want and leave the hosting for him while I relaxed as the sexy self I am and be catered to. Treat me LIKE THIS, or you won't be able to at all. Of course, after advocating for your own self-respect.
