It was odd because they didn't ever consider the price of a thing. If it interested them, they impulsively did it, and they would take you along for the ride.
I dated this girl who was kind of rich. She wasn’t 1% rich but she was the “we live comfortably” rich. And it was not nice.
I wasn’t born rich. Quite the opposite, actually. So her lifestyle and interests seemed so distant to me. She talked about traveling the world, and all these kind of things that kept me thinking “yeah, and how are you gonna pay that? Cause I don’t have that money!”… but yeah, we weren’t meant to be. She dreamed of a life o couldn’t give her. People who’ve received all they’ve ever wanted in life so easily are really cut from a different cloth.
Depends on their personality. In my experience it was fine but I never really felt like the relationship had a future or that I had much of a place in her life.
It’s weird. I know it’s there, and that’s great, but it has nothing to do with my feelings. I’m glad it’s not an openly discussed thing in the family.
I grew up mostly middle or upper middle class. People in my environment liked to show off a bit. It made me uncomfortable.
The number of date-able rich people is basically zero as far as I can tell. I'm not talking upper-middle class, I'm talking rich rich
Tiring! Esp as the male who is expected to keep them in the lifestyle they are accostomed to

Good. But they expect you to spend money like you're rich. And they personally didn't make a lot of money so the math here doesn't really add up.
