I always dress up - the same way I’d be impressed if she did :) I don’t however expect her to though. It’s a choice I guess.

I think it's important to be attracted to and attractive for your partner. I always dress up too!

I always dress up and like it when the woman is at least putting some efforts into dressing up. One time my date showed up in pajamas while I showed up with polished shoes, pressed clothes, carefully chosen perfume etc. so it was kinda odd. Not sure if I was overdressed or she was under 🤨

I went on three to give her chances but things didn’t change so eventually it became a huge turn off and I called it off.

So true Indian men look just unprepared always

Well, it sets them apart (men or women) if they show effort.
