i cant help feeling irritated by the situation. he's not that intelligent, never reads books or thinks much about anything. he is caring etc but has a short temper. i feel the relationship is not helping me develop as a person. i findit hard to be resectful towards him. i know this amounts to snobbery. or does it? he goes out of his way to convince me that he is the one for me but i'm just not feeling it.

Why did you get together with him in the first place? Education is great from books, but you have a lot to learn about life. If your measure of a man is all about his earning power and his IQ, then you need to move on and let this man find someone who can appreciate and love him for who he is, not who you want him to be.
Before you get involved with anyone, you would do well to figure out who you are and what you bring to a relationship, other than money and book learning.

Well first let me defend blue collar workers. Without them we would be without alot of the every day conveniences that we enjoy. Our automobiles being number 1. Also not all blue collar workers are uneducated, some have college degrees. The factory that I worked in for 10 years just happened to pay quite well. We had people that could have been teachers but chose to work in the factory due to the fact they could make more money. And maybe your boyfriend actually enjoys his job. Sometimes I think that means more than making a little more money. I just hope there are other issues other than his job and his temper (as long as he doesn't hit you) that is causing you to want to end it with him. At least he works girl. Would he be the perfect man for you if he made twice as much as you? You just need to do a little bit of soul searching here, and be honest with yourself and him.

if you had as much feelings for him as it seems he does for you, you wouldnt care about his intelligence or job, nothing would get in the way of how you feel about him, so i think you should tell this lad in the nicest possible way that things arnt working out, then maybe he'll find a girl thats right for him, and youll find someone who suits your needs much better, because if you find it hard to respect him theres no point n dragging out a relationship where theres no love

Find out if he is really in love to u...if he is i don't see anything wrong with here he works or how much he makes..what matters is the spirit of sharing caring understanding and trust among two of u...Remember money can never buy you love but a companionship.

You have obviously made up your mind about it, and there is nothing wrong with you for feeling that way. Just do not drag it out and hurt yourself and him in the process. If you are afraid to face him then leave and tell him afterwards, but if you do not think he is violent, tell him to his face. He deserve that much at least.
Goodluck

Sounds like you've had enough.
Do you want to carry on this rellationship. Think about the future, will you marry, have kids together? If you do, you'll end up going to work while he brings the children up because you think he won't be able to provide for you.

then get out. You obviously feel you are to good for him. Be fair to both of you. His short temper will only get worse as the frustration mounts. No man wants to be with a woman who cannot respect him for himself, especially when he goes out of hiss way for you.

Go with how you feel, find somebody that's good enough for you. Don't wait in this relationship forever cause this is always going to be an issue between you two.
