Well, the "moving out" conversation went better than expected. There was no yelling
When I told her she just sat there for a while, then she said, "You're making a mistake." She's bothered that I would want to spend my time with someone who is poor. She said, "but you're so pretty, you could marry a lawyer!" Odd, I didn't know that I needed to marry a rich man to be happy. I'm a little offended at the insinuation that I would need to marry someone rich in order to survive. I can't understand what I've ever done in my life that would show that I needed to leach off of someone else or that I needed to be taken care of.
Is it possible to love someone who is "beneath you?" I think so, and I don't think it should make a difference.
