Dating Someone From A 'lower' Social Class? by IpsumDolor: 3:28pm On Feb 05, 2018 |
My case could be a rhethorical one but I'mma go ahead and spill it. My girlfriend (new) is considered to be from a ‘lower’ social class than me. I'm fairly ok, and earn about 150K/mo; while she's relatively a very low income-earning entrepreneur (something my family constantly remind me) Our way of dressing and talking is a bit different, we live in different social circles (friends) and I’m ‘more’ educated while she's a Secondary School Leaver. I get along perfectly with her family and friends but my friends and family aren’t as accepting of her. I really really like her but sometimes I fear that the differences might be too much. Is it possible to have a relationship with someone who is considered to be from a different social class and damn the societal consequences? |

If you really love her as you claim, you won't even take cognisance of these things talk more of considering it an issue worthy of public scrutiny. 2 Likes |

Ordinary 150k a month and u think u already a big boy? U and ur family are suffering frm poverty mentality |

So because you earn 150K,you decided to call God's creation 'low class'? Please do everything within to break up with her cos I'm sure she don't know what a disgusting f00l she is wasting her time on. I'm very sure this he-diot will be among those calling Trump a racist ![]() |

Bulk of the replies I see here focus on how I referred to her as 'Low' or how much I earn rather than the highlight of the issue: I apologize if you lot find the term 'Low' as derogatory. I didn't mean to look down on her but just as a way to describe the difference at the time. Secondly, I'd want you lot to focus on the key issue here: Is it possible to have a relationship with someone who is considered to be from a different social class and damn the societal consequences? If you read closely, you'd have known that I love her despite her standard of living (I hope I don't get lashed out because of ' standard of living'). The crux of the matter is if I can go ahead and date her while ignoring what my family will say. While you ruminate on this, bear in mind that we find ourselves in a society where you just don't marry for yourself alone, but for a family-wide acceptability. careytommy7:Bros, It'd surprise you that I'm the one trying to ensure we don't break up despite her double-dating. ![]() Story for another day. 1 Like |

Xinzu:I do love her. My only worry is my ppl turning their back on me if I 'stubbornly' go ahead to date/marry her. |

IpsumDolor: I don't why the both of you are burying your heads in the sand. A failed relationship is better than a failed marriage. Let her go! |

To be truthful, I can not. It's not being proud but to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding and pull down syndrome. 2 Likes |

Uncle please rephrase the caption. Your caption underates her and is annoying. I bet you that should lady in question see this, she will not take it light with you. She just finished secondary school and still have better future. When will people bury ego and live life simple. 150k monthly salary is not enough to make u classify her as "low social class". If you think that you have arrived and is stable at that salary, then the girl in question should be the one saying this because you have poverty mentality and you family is nurturing it too. Bros think well |

Re: Dating Someone From A 'lower' Social Class? by Nobody: 5:34pm On Feb 05, 2018 |
just because you're earning 150 monthly somebody will not hear word again. dear you're not better than her, you're still struggling. that lady better not marry you because you're from a toxic family. |

IpsumDolor:If you really love her as you claimed,i would advice you let your family know how much you happy being with.Let those that care to listen,your friends inclusive know she is the lady you intend spending the rest of your of your lofe with and younaint gonna shift grounds on that decision no matter what. PS:This stance must be taken wwhen you sure she is also ready to improve herself both educationally and biz-wise and your own unflinching support for her must not be questioned either.I WISH U ALL DA BEST 1 Like |
