Mushy post...

You're stressing over a problem that hasn't even occured yet.  (warning - sarcasm coming.)

***NEWSFLASH***** NEWSFLASH****NEWSFLASH******

ANY woman will come with a set of problems/issues that you will have to deal with if you are going to be her man.  Think of them as hills on the bike course.  Some you spin up in the saddle at a high cadence.  Others you mash through.  Bottom line is you deal with them, you don't stress them.  Do you think if she were lower middle class or poorer there wouldn't be potential problems?  Ha!

Go get her, Trojan Man.

Exactly.   F.E.A.R. = False Expectations Appearing Real

Don't worry about it.  Go for the ride (no pun inteneded) and see where the bike course takes you. 

Don't worry about it.  The worst thing you can do is try to transform yourself into something you think her family might want you to be.  Be yourself, and let her fall in love with YOU.  When she's in love with you, her family will fall in line.  (If they don't, AND she stops seeing you because of they told her to, well . . . . believe me, you're better off without them--and trust me, in that scenario it would be THEM, but that's not the issue here.)

Go ahead, fall in love.  Enjoy for what it is, for as long as it is because it is never long enough, and don't waste it being concerned that someone might think you are not "good enough."  Love her, love yourself, let her love you.  The two of you are all that matter. 

As an aside, apparently being in love vastly improves your spelling.

 
Any theories?

This isn't India, there is no caste system.  You and the new girl are entitled to date whomever you want, regardless of race, color, creed, class status.... about the only thing that might throw a monkey wrench into that would be sexual orientation......Who cares what her family might think in the future? 

OK, maybe if they're Bruins, you're toast

Ah, that head over heels feeling.  Enjoy it while it lasts

Tyrant, trust me, I have a daughter approaching dating age.  As I ponder the implications of this, I can only hope that one day she comes home with a guy (a) going to college, (b) managing a kinko's, and (c) has a personality (d) treats her well and (e) keeps her happy. (not in that order, but you get the point).  Those qualities alone probably put you about 10-feet above most of your competition. 

McFuzz is right also...LOOK for OPPORTUNITIES to mix and meet people of this class, as they can be instrumental in providing you opportunities as you advance in your education and career.  Do not be intimidated....be EXCITED!

i would worry less about her family and more about what she'll do when she finds out you're posting intimate details about your date on the internet.....

Seriously don't worry about it.  If something like that is enough to keep you apart, then you didn't deserve to be together in the first place.  Just go with what feels right and let the rest sort itself out.

tyrant - 2006-03-20 1:56 PM I sent her a dozen long stem roses to her work....

well aren't you mr slick.  I hope you spelled her name right on the card

no, not too much.  Well maybe if you confessed your love for hre in the card....but your good.  Flowers at work are nice, because all of her friends get to see them and the real way to a woman's heart is to impress her friends.  Their jealousy makes her feel special.

Actually, looks like you are doing to them what you hope they will not do to you.

You're prejudging them to be superficial assholes.

My 'poor' father teacher is twice the man of any man I ever met with money and it would never occur to me to be embarassed about it.

Try not to be too impressed by people with money. They're just people.
