Rodger,
Ever since high school my favorite color has been pink and over the years dozens and dozens of people have told me how good I look in things that are pink. But the guy I have been dating tells me I should not ever wear anything in pink. As a matter of fact after he told me that and then the next time I was wearing something pink when he came to pick me up, he said he would not go out with me that night until I changed.
This would not be so bad (even though I counted them and now have 26 outfits I can no longer wear because they are pink) except that he also has now told me he refuses ever again to spend time with four of my closest friends or my stepbrother who I used to see often because he is my same age. He will not tell me why he dislikes any of these people but I honestly do not see anything major wrong with any of them.
I am at the point in my life where I no longer just want to date to be dating. If a guy is not someone I want to get serious with, I want to move on. Are these two reasons enough for me to move on?

You should have dumped him the first time he told you not to wear anything pink.
Well, maybe not the very first time. But definitely the night he said he wouldn’t go out with you until you changed your outfit.
Who does he think he is, your mother?
The guy is definitely too controlling, which means he’s not willing to let you to be who you are. And on top of being a color Nazi, the guy also tries to tell you which of your friends & relatives he doesn’t want to be around. Way over the line.
Definitely tell him buh-bye. And please, please, please, when you announce to him that he should take a hike, be sure to wear something pink.

You are being too harsh. As a gay man, you do not have any problem finding other men to date or whatever. It is much, much, MUCH harder for women. So if you have a guy who is good accept that he doesn't like you waring a certain color and doesn't get a long with a couple of your friends, I say hold on to him.
WTF! Connie the commenter says that gay men have no problem finding other men to date or "WHATEVER"!!! what exactly is that supposed to mean? and speaking for pretty much every gay dude i know, it is every bit as hard for us to find men as it is for straight chicks. and without legalities like marriage and tax benefits, it is even harder to keep a couple togetehr for the long haul. Connie: stop commenting!
i understand jeff's point, but the other problem with connie's comment is that she is essentially saying that guys are in such short supply that girls should be satisfied with any guy they can get, even if he dictates what she wears and what friends she sees. no, no, no, we should not be so desperate.
