Sorry for the delay in response.
Reading through this, it feels like I can just tell which of you fit the description of someone whos had an easy life. I'm really suprised to feel like I'm getting attacked here. I'm not "Bringing her down". I'm being realistic. We come from completely different walks of life, and have differing views. Shes a great girl (has a twin, too.. Hmmm), but our core views of the world, again, differ dramatically. I'll accept that the problem is mine, thank you to everyone who pointed that out, thats sort of the whole point of this thread. I wasn't looking for people to point fingers at me, I was looking for advice & experiences.
To everyone else, thank you. I know its important not to judge someone on things beyond their control.. and I think Konrade has brought me the most insight into the whole thing, being as I can relate the most with his experiences. I grew up in a pretty wealthy area.. Like Konrade, most of my friends were well taken care of, so to speak. Cars, College, Rent, Food, everything covered. As we've grown up, I've always had to work harder for everything, while everyone around me has had the easy path. It didn't bother me, per se, it almost has sweet satisfaction in it which they'll never know.. Knowing that what I am, where I am, is my own doing. Its me, not someone elses doing or support. By dating a rich girl, I feel like I'm somehow cheating myself of something by which I define myself.. what a shitty thing to realize. The more I think about this whole thing, the more it frustrates me.
At any rate, thanks to everyone for your advice.. but please disregard this thread from here on in. I'll figure it out.

Look at it this way - you wouldn't want her to not date you because you grew up in a lower income family than her. Neither of you had any control over that, obviously, and it could so easily be the other way roubnd. Regardless of background - a couple has to (at some point) forge a way ahead for themselves and learning to do that is important. But have you shared any of these anxieties with her? Perhaps it may help for you to share them.

it shouldn't matter that she has money unless her having money affects her personality in a way that you don't like.
I too have an aversion to rich girls, but not simply because they have money. Its the effect that money has on their character that bothers me. Most (but certainly not all) rich girls I've met tend to be impatient, lightweight, unable to cope with hardships. And what they look for in a man is someopne to replace their rich daddy.
But if your girl has grown up rich and managed to avoid those character flaws, I'd say you have yourself a catch.
