My ex grew up in a trailer. I grew up in a stereotypical upper middle class suburb. He couldn't understand the concept of getting everything you want for Christmas without question; I couldn't understand the concept of NOT getting what you want all the time. He didn't understand why I went to college, and I didn't get why someone like him didn't want to go (he was fairly smart).

He thought I was a spoiled brat, and I just plain had a hard time relating to him.
