[quote=Anonymous]It can work, OP. I had a cousin who came from a very "high society" background with an advanced degree from an Ivy, and she was very well-off. She started dating a roofer or handyman who she met because he did work on her vacation home.

The family was initially mystified and a little scared that it sounded like a gold-digger situation on his part. But over time, everyone realized that they loved each other despite their differences, and they had a great relationship for many, many years. He would occasionally come to her fancy cocktail parties, and she would occasionally go camping with him, but for the most part they had separate hobbies.

The real key, though, is that she never, ever judged him or treated him as "less than" because of his blue collar background. And she wouldn't tolerate anyone else doing that either.  I honestly never saw her worried about the things that you're worried about. (It also didn't hurt that he was a very happy-go-lucky guy who wasn't the type to worry whether people in her circle were judging him. He just didn't care.)[/quote]
