I had been with my girlfriend since I was 18 (high school sweethearts). I am now 27 and she’s 26. Ever since I graduated HS, I had been doing blue collar work. I’m currently working at the UPS Store. My girlfriend, on the other hand, went to college for accounting and is now senior associate at a big 4 accounting firm. She makes a lot more compared what I make which I don’t have a problem with. I don’t really care about money in the relationship. But when I bought up the conversation of marriage, she says that she doesn’t want to marry me until I “establish” myself on a professional level. The thing is, I don’t have any career aspirations and I’m happy doing what I’m doing.
Has this relationship ran its course? Are we just too different?
