[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t feel awkward around rich people as I grew up with them. Private school followed by Ivy League education. But wasn’t wealthy growing up, just middle class on financial aid. Now that I’m UMC, what I find awkward is other people who feel awkward around those with money. For example, a group of college friends were out in London one night and one individual brought along his girlfriend of a few months who from small town Illinois. First time she ever left the US and first time on an airplane. It was clear she felt so out of place based on her demeanor, nothing to add to the conversation, and most awkward: she was a 40 year old dressed in clothes from forever 21 without the figure to pull it off. She really thought nightclub attire is what is considered dressy clothing for dinner with friends at a posh London restaurant. [/quote]

Can’t say I blame her for feeling awkward around such a judgy, arrogant person like you.  Yikes. [/quote]

And while I've always been MC to UMC, I've been in her relative position. It's not fun. And the people were just a$$holes. [/quote]
