I've been dating this boy for a little while. Don't get me wrong, I'm head over heels for him. But lately I've been feeling like ...maybe I'm not good enough for him? He's the kind of person who could probaly drop 500 euros on the ground, and it wouldn't even matter to him, at all. Probaly never has to work for the rest of his life, and his garage is filled with expensive cars and closet, and probaly would never go close to Walmart with a 10 foot pole.

Me, on the other hand, I live in a semi-run down house, with a beautiful family don't get me wrong, but money is scarce. I enjoy the simple things in life, like Nature, picnics and picking flowers by highways. He has a beautiful humorous personality, though, sometimes I...feel that maybe he could do a lot better then me, I think, what is he doing with a person like me?

Is this wrong to think that? I feel really bad. :(

<3 thank you.

Yes it is wrong what you feel. Just because his dad's got money doesn't make your b/f and his family better or worse than you and your family. They've just had better financial breaks. Don't EVER be ashamed of your background. It's what has made you what you are - and what you are is what your b/f likes...so it can't be bad can it. You sound like a nice girl. Enjoy your friendship with this young man. He obviously finds you a refreshing change from girls from his own background. Enjoy your differences. Take him on your nature walks and picnics and let him take you to expensive venues if that's what he wants. Absorb all your different experiences together. Oh, and by the way, if he does drop 500 Euros, pick them up quick and tell him not to be wasteful as you hand them back to him. He can learn from you.

I don't like the sound of this boy if he makes you feel this way. Does he try to act modestly to make you comfortable or does he emphasize the differences? Most people wouldn't give a rats **** about the socio-economic situation of the other because of social mobility - things change.
It is not the difference in money but a difference in attitudes that matter. Also, because you're female, he probably cares more about your looks rather than money (call me sexist) but guys do care more about looks.
But, I had some dates with a surgeon and he made me feel inferior and as it turned out he jetted off asap to suit his own precious self.

The difference in life styles can be a problem but remember that HE is taking you out for a reason, hopefully it is the right reason. If he does have money, tell him your feelings about that and that you are not interested in his money, but only if that is true. Try to improve your self-confidence, it sounds like that may be most of the problem.

Forget about the money. That is not what is important. Don't sell yourself short. Are you a nice, honest, attractive person who is fun to be around? Do you have a pleasant personality? Believe it or not, it is harder to find a good, kind and honest person than it is to find one with lots of money. He is lucky to have found you. Keep that in mind.

Just don't think of him as better then you just because he is wealthier then you are, if he is with you then he probably sees you at the same level. Just know that in a relationship your economic status shouldn't be and issue. :)

It can be overwhelming, if a partner is better of than you.

However, he chose you - didn`t he?

If you think it is an issue, then why not try to talk about it with him?
