Swimming against the current - PH in piecing

[pearlharbr]

The ones who said that cited the fact that we are very different and come from different backgrounds.

It's true that we are opposite in many things: temperament, logical v. emotional, hobbies, taste in music, etc. But I always felt that the differences were good for us, that meant we were complementary and not just the same. We do have things we enjoy doing together and share similar values.

Our backgrounds are different, but I don't think it's that big of a deal. I grew up in an upper middle class family in the suburbs of Seattle and went to Catholic school my whole life. BF grew up in a blue class/middle class family in a small town in the midwest and went to public school his whole life. But we both come from a family of three kids, were raised Catholic but don't practice, aren't very close with our families and don't want children.

I don't know why they think I can do much better than BF (their words). I would say that some just don't know him that well but not sure why my gf from HS thinks that. Maybe I should ask her.

RE: the shoes, they're cute but I just have a problem with anything with a platform. That automatically makes me think trashy. Sorry. Or hope that helps.
