Brown cord trousers, brown shoes and a striped shirt. I looked like a guy in his fifties.
My opinion is you dodged a bullet with your ex. It was her way of "hiding" her possession from other girls.

I already had a good job, good sense of style, healthy ambition and drive, worked out, best shape in my life. I lived alone at the time and as such I can cook, wash clean and take care of myself. None of this made her happy. We broke up. She is now with a guy who is unemployed, wears dull clothes, walks behind her with his head down and looks like a lost child. She works to support him. He is not an Alpha bad boy drug dealer or anything of the sorts. Just an ordinary guy. For years I thought she hated me because I was a loser.
I recommend you read "Practical Female Psychology For The Practical Man" by Joseph W South, David Clare & Franco. I think she falls under the category of what they define as Low Self Esteem Woman.
If she is insecure about herself, then the only way of not having her bf snatched by another girl is to have an unsnatchable bf.
Confront your problems. Walk away from BS. Seek wisdom to know the difference.
