Plenty of REAL Problems in Every Life
1. Do not invent a problem. As you grow up, you and your fiancee will face plenty of real problems. This resentment of wealth is like resenting good health or natural beauty or God-given talent. Preposterous. Chill!
2. How do you know that HIS (the rich kid's) mom was not addicted to dope as well? And if she was not, is that not a good thing?
3. This is an opportunity for you to grow and to learn. If you chose not to grow, not to learn, you are free to wallow in your childish resentment for the rest of your life. But if you shed this soap opera idea now, you will have an opportunity for a deeper richer life, and an opportunity to face more important problems.
If you do not marry him, I will. And not for his money. You like this guy. Leave your silliness behind. Or don't. If you reject him now, you can reinforce your current silly ideas about yourself and about life. You can make a career of being a tough, boring cliche. Is that what you want?
