Is it normal to feel different about someone based on what they're wearing?

It sucks it has to be this way but it just is. I realize that it's not the person who has changed or it's not being bipolar but it's what they're wearing that makes me feel different bout them therefore, I have different reactions to them. For example, I just got into a relationship which im still not sure of the guy 100% but ive been seeing him for three months and ame to the results that yeah why not just be together already since it already looks like we are. But we went out for the first time as official the other day and oh mighty did I feel sure about him, I felt like this is going to be an adventure w him but he wearing my favorite jacket of his and he just looked chill and cool which made his words and actions cool too. Then today he looked more feminine or formal and he just looks and seems like a different person 180 when he wears those clothes which is too soft or wimpy so I was acting weird around him like eh hi hehe which threw me off ! since the other day went awesome ! It's crazy how the clothes can flip your impressions of a person like that. I tried to convince myself he's the same guy but I still couldnt help but feel I'm w someone different. Does anyone else get as impacted by the clothes as simple as one shirt?This could hurt us, you never know.

    I understand where you are coming from. Appearance plays a role in the "feel" that one would get of someone, and it is difficult to get a feel of someone if they keep changing up their routine. I change my clothing styles daily, depending on my mood or whether or not I would like to excersise discipline in keeping my legs proper while wearing a skirt or be chilled and wear jeans. It sounds like you're a very visual person which is a challenge for females.

    Just keep spending time with him. Eventually, you will get a feel for him and you will not need to depend on what he is wearing to gauge an impression.

    I am like that too expecially with first impressions. I am financially in the upper most part of middle class and have a habit of making first impressions on peoples shoes depending on brand and whether they are clean or dirty.
