Find out if he can give you the love you need, because without that, the material stuff counts for very little
I’ve been dating my boyfriend for 10 months. He’s a supportive and loving man in many ways, even helping me with my career goals. There’s a 13-year age gap and we come from different financial backgrounds – his parents are quite well off, mine are not. He was raised with a holiday home, in the wealthy, country club lifestyle; I was not.
This would not really be an issue but he speaks of wealthy people from great backgrounds and big educations in a very lofty way, fully knowing it’s not something I understand or come from. It’s creating insecurities within me partly because I have things to work out in my career path and I lack even a basic college degree.
