Boys Life

Anonymous asked: met this guy. we fooled around (it was nicee), but my friend let it slip that my family has money. the guy that i hooked up with doesn't. so i left and he was acting kind of odd. i txted him a few times and he brought up my money situation in a kind of backhanded way, but then tried to down play what he said. after that i thought 'whatever' and tried again, but he was passive. i have not tried again and i won't because i think he was intimidated by the money factor. do you think so?

People get really freaked out by money, and there is this kind of commonly held belief that because someone is wealthy, they have, or have had it easy. And this is just Not True. 

You may have been born into a situation that seems, to this guy, enviable, but that is no reason for him to to judge you.

He has no idea what your life has been like, and what you really stand for, he probably just sees the zeros and is scared. For middle class dudes the first brushes with really wealthy women can be pretty harrowing, and if those women are actually awful Shit Bitch rich girls, it can turn them off forever. 

I’ve found that wealthy girls are no more or less likely to be totally worthless and devoid of moral compass than any other type of girl, poor, middle class, whatever.

For the average Joes out there, It’s important to understand that a girl or boy who grows up with a lot of paper has had a different experience with the world than you, but that does not make them bad, it makes them foreign. They might have grown up 4 miles away, but they might as well be from Africa. So being from Africa or Brentwood, does not make them bad people, it just makes them different. Get to know them before you judge them. If you feel like you understand them, then ask yourself: does this person share the values I share, do they hold the things I hold dear, can we build something together, or will our differences be too great?

I don’t think rich people are bad or good, they are simply people, flawed like you and I.

But I do think when you’re really wealthy and you raise a child it’s your duty to help that child understand their situation and the complexity and responsibility that comes with having money in our world. People don’t do this, and they have these awful kids that are pure fucking garbage, that pollute the world with their self-importance. 

So ask yourself, am I a garbage rich bitch?

If you’re not, skip that dude, and his peasant ways.
