Dear Love Guru,
Gettting married in a few months to a girl I really love.
But she comes from a very wealthy biz family.
I am from a simple middle-class background but have worked hard and earn well.
Even if our love is mutual and unites our hearts, her way of living is totally unlike mine.
And her parents make me feel uncomfortable and that she is marrying beneath her and I am interested in her for her family’s money.
How do I convey this problem to her?
If I sit quiet it can fester later.
What do I say to her parents when they are almost rude?
B.
Hi B,
No matter how wealthy your to-be in-laws are, money doesn't give them license to look down their noses at you. You say you're hard working and earn well, surely they know that too!
Sit them down and apprise them of the fact that their rude manner has not gone unnoticed. Be polite but firm. If they were born into money then they've hardly achieved anything, and if they started from scratch like you have, well, surely they should commend you for following in the same footsteps toward making a life for yourself and their daughter?
Tell them that it's best that they make peace with the marriage so that relations are not strained in the future.
If they have no consideration for your feelings, at the very least their daughter's should matter to them.
