Dating a blue or white collar worker?

I generally date white collar workers as I meet them more often in my own line of work as a teacher, but I come from a family of blue collar workers and I think I enjoy their company more in most cases. dunno

Does it really make a difference to you?

I have generally ended up dating Blue Collars; dont know why, just went that way. Mainly in the construction industry for some reason..uh oh laugh

Ive worked in mainly office environments during my life, particularly law offices, and I have found that, apart from the fact that I never really was attracted to any of the guys there, I discovered that lawyers in particular were either too busy to hold down a fair relationship or they were too into themselves for my liking.

Maybe I have dated mostly blue collar guys because I like the differences in conversation. I did date my lawyer boss for a while, years ago, and to be honest, we ended up talking about work all the time. Got boring..

I think in general, blue collars seem to be more down to earth in my experience, and have better senses of humors. But that's just MY experience..

Not profiling at all here..scold laugh

Yes it is. Some people are a little snobbish about these things though.

Yes, they can be..thumbs up

Also, parents seem to always want their little darling daughters to date doctors, or lawyers, or someone In the City..presumably because they think it holds more prestige. That's rubbish, of course..

That´s true! I met an accountant and a bus conductor within days of each other asking for a date and my mother urged me to accept the date from the accountant. I ignored her wishes as teenagers do and married the bus conductor. laugh
