Just got back from a date with a millionaire's daughter...

Whoa...54 posts...haha should've given you guys a bit more last night, sorry.

So yeah, we actually met on an online dating site. I recently broke up with my GF and well, working weird hours in IT doesn't help the cause, so I figured i'd give it a shot. She didn't say anything about being rich in her profile, and honestly I don't care -- I make enough to live well, especially for somebody 2 years out of college, and well i'm not big on taking money or "inheriting" money. I've got a problem with pride I guess.

About the date...well, she seemed like a really nice person, not snobby or anything, but...I don't know, I don't want to say anything bad about her. While she's in no means stupid, she's not like the girls I know who grew up in upper middle-class households with a drive to succeed and are now engineers, in med school, pharmacists, etc. I don't know, she just seemed very Paris Hilton-ish in terms of her upbringing and her current lifestyle. Her "crew" basically consists of ridiculously wealthy people who are very similar to her in these respects, and i'd feel pretty odd being around that group of people, only because "it's not me." Sorry about being so vague, unlike most people here i'm not a big fan of insulting people, the way I see it everybody's different so I accept people for who they are (and yes I know that kind of contradicts what I said earlier about feeling weird in these types of situations).

Somebody asked who paid for dinner...I did, obviously.

We spoke today...she seemed pretty interested, I told her I just wanted to be friends though. We'll be meeting up soon again...

Sorry, not gonna post pics... 🙂

And sorry about the useless thread guys...it was pretty much a mistake posting it in the first place as i'm not really giving too much away, so sorry.
 
I've been around types like that, wasssup, before, but they're somewhat rare on a public university campus. I agree that it's never in good form to insult someone else for a lifestyle into which they were born, so I won't say much, but I came from a middle-class family that gave me a particular work ethic and value for money, and I can't imagine dating or marrying someone who had substantially different values in that regard.
