Is it necessary to wear revealing clothes
I’ve recently started hanging out with a new friend circle here. Most of the girls in this group are very outgoing and confident, with a strong sense of fashion. They often wear bold and revealing outfits(some amount of their jugs are exposed ), and many of them are also into things like smoking and drinking.
I joined this group because I genuinely like their extroverted nature and the energy they bring. However, I’ve been feeling a bit uncomfortable lately because they’ve started encouraging me to dress and behave like them. Personally, I prefer more modest clothing, both because of my own comfort and my family’s values. I also don’t feel comfortable with habits like drinking or smoking.
I’m finding myself stuck between wanting to be part of the group and wanting to stay true to my own values. I don’t want to feel pressured into doing things that don’t align with who I am, but at the same time, I don’t want to lose this social circle.
I’m unsure if this kind of lifestyle is becoming the norm among people my age, or if I’m just in a specific environment. I’d really appreciate advice on how to handle this situation, how to maintain my boundaries while still being part of the group, if that’s possible.
