Me and this guy really liked each other and we had a great time going out and he stated many times that he wanted me to be his girlfriend. He is nt that rich whereas I am a princess. Well on his birthday I finally tell him that I like him and I want him t be my man, but then he says "No". Coz he thinks I'm really rich and he's a nobody.And that he and I can never be together. He says its ok if we're "Just Friends" I tried to reason with him and convince him that its ok but he's just stuck on it and he just doesn't want me. He seems to be normal about it but I'm still in the hope that he will say yes. How can I tell him that its okay? And if you think its not going to work how do i move on?

I think its messed up when some1 thinks that they aren't good enough for the other person.... I think if you really do like him and he really like you... you should keep trying to convince him that it doesn't matter being rich poor prince princess black white spanish ect. None of that matters being in love is being in love no matter what the situation is... but if he doesn't understand it doesn't matter then maybe he can't be convinced.... I hope this helps... if you got any questions message me [ bayani3's advice column | Ask bayani3 A Question ]

All I think that you can do is try to convince him that money doesn't matter. You should also tell him that money isn't a good reason not to be with something. Let him know that you're dissapointed with the way he's being so shallow. And that money isn't everything. Also try and get to the reason that it bothers him so much. Also ask him why being friends with a rich person is so much different than being the boyfriend of someone who is rich. Also ask him why, he first wanted to go out with you but doesn't now.

That being said, the heart doesn't care that much about money. From what you say, it seems like this guy really does like you, but maybe he's scared of disappointing you. Try explaining to him that money doesn't matter to you, and if you can, show him somehow. Could you go a month without shopping? Something that would make him understand that his not having money is not going to disappoint you. It sounds like you really like this guy, so I am rooting for you. At the same time, you have to take the guy's feelings into consideration. You may not be able to convince him that it is okay for you guys to date. If it doesn't work out, you'll have to accept that it just was not meant to be. Treasure the times that you two had together, but find someone that is more willing to work on a relationship with you. It may take some time to find another special guy, but unfortunately, time is the best healer.
