Where's Cary today? Who's the stuck up rich dude who's taken his place?
Clearly nouveau riche, the properly rich don't tolerate the help stealing from houseguests.
Anyway - Letterwriter, your boyfriend should (sadly) dump you, it's the only way to get away from such possible future in laws. Your father, should he choose to be indignant about something, might consider insisting that his friend fire the maid(s) rather than dumping on your boyfriend. His friend should probably go easier on the maid than that, but he does need to deal with the situation. He absolutely did the right thing in repaying the poor young photographer. Absolutely. I completely agree with those who've said they would be mortified that a guest in their house had been robbed by a member of the household. And completely aside from the fact that he couldn't afford to lose $1000, your boyfriend did the right thing in accepting it, assuming he did so graciously. If you want to please your father, obviously you need to get a boyfriend of more distinguished breeding (that is, richer). Your father is a rich jackass, apparently, and you should do him the favor of telling him so.
