[quote=Anonymous]Based on the OP's first post, she, and her family, are probably self-congratulatory snoots. Your new inlaws are going to hate you and your family for that reason alone. That said, marrying into different classes doesn't matter at all. As long as neither one of you (or your families) are douchebags about it. I grew up UMC or probably even "low rich" and married a first-person-to-go-to-college-in-his-family poor DH. Like, bartering for food, no money for xmas gifts poor. Our marriage, 20 years later, is still fantastic. He was very driven when I met him, which was important to me. And we're now pretty rich ourselves. Our contact with his family is limited to a half day at thanksgiving, and we're okay with that because we don't have much in common with most of them. For years, I thought the problem was with my DH and encouraged him to make more effort with his family. But over time, I saw that they were f-ups and not particularly kind or interested in us. My DH is super tight with my family, who are not stuck up at all. [/quote]
