Hi Guys,
I'm in need of some advice about a girl I've kind of been seeing for a few weeks. We both kind of like each other but nothing is set in stone yet, despite having got with her in a club several times and coffee dates etc.
The only problem is that I come from a very poor family; my parents are gambling addicts and basically have blown everything, currently surviving off the welfare state and in constant fear of our home being repossessed.
I went to a dirt bottom state school that closed down, though somehow managed to get straight-As and make it to a Top12 RG university. I took a year out working for PwC on their Gap Year programme as I knew I would have financial difficulties etc..though this experience kind of exposed me to the middle-class lifestyle/culture and changed me completely by the time I started university.Basically, If you saw me in a lecture or around campus - you'd probably think I'm a 'Rah' somewhat.
Though on the other hand, this girl is basically a multi-millionaire - her family own a string of businesses and properties around the world. They're quite well-connected and I would probably estimate her net worth around £50-100m tbh. She went to one of the best private schools in London as well as being Grade 8 in piano, violin and some other instruments. She speaks French and Spanish as well as our native language (We're both Pakistani). At university, she has everything paid for and nothing worry about and even a car, whilst I sometimes have to live off soup or a pack of biscuits for the whole day and no financial support from my parents. They don't even own a car, so it feels weird when I sit in her car and how comfy it feels, compared to the bus that I'm used to travelling by back home.
I'm the first person in my family to attend University while she isn't and most her cousins/relatives are either doctors, lawyers, bankers or in business. I just feel as though she's way above my league even though we get on quite well, and I don't really want to hurt her in the future when I have to tell her the truth. Also, sometimes she has that mentality of thinking we're all equal and that everyone is doing quite well for themselves in life as she hasn't really experienced the neighbourhood/life I've had etc..and this kind of pisses me off/annoys me.
I was thinking it's just best to slowly cut it off and forget her as I know it can never work in the long-term..our backgrounds are just too vastly on the polar opposites. I also wouldn't really want to introduce her to my parents etc as they're quite uneducated and I think she would feel intimidated/awkward.
It's like Top 1% v Bottom 0.0000001%.
Much advice and thoughts are appreciated
Thanks
