I grew up dirt-poor, so I should be happy that my future husband has money, but I'm mad at him instead!
  • Wasn't it Tammy Faye Bakker ?

    I think it was Tammy Faye Bakker who said when you don't have money, thats ALL you think about and as soon as you have it, you never think about it again.

    Your fiance sounds like a very down to earth person, especially since he doesn't seem to flaunt his wealth like he probably could.

    You can share your feelings with him, but I don't know what you expect him to say. He's already conducting himself like a considerate, respectful person. Does he say things that make you feel like you don't measure up because you didn't have the same background? It doesn't sound like it. Do you want him to stop talking about his past so you don't feel bad? Do you want him to have to stop and filter everything he says? Or do you just want him to apologize for being fortunate financially?
