My take

I agree with the person who said that blue collar or white collar, you can't control who you fall for. However, speaking from personal experience, falling for someone whose background, education, etc. so drastically differs from yours is not easy.

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.
