When it comes to splitting the bill, in reality poor and middle-class people tend to split the bill. Unless you’re rich, the guy will just pay—but even then, rich guys will date rich women, and rich women will date rich guys. A rich person wouldn’t be caught dead with someone who’s middle class. No rich guy would date a woman who comes from a middle-class family, and vice versa. So when it comes to splitting the bill, it’s mostly for poor people.

    OP is definitely wrong about rich people not dating middle class people or poor people

    A millionaire Heiress isn’t going to date the pizza guy who comes from a working class or middle class family

    The millionaire heir isn’t going to date the Starbucks Barista who comes from a working class or middle class family.

    Most upper-class elites date other people from upper-class elite families. The only exception might be ‘new rich’ people, like rich athletes, singers, actresses, actors, and models. For example, a man or woman from a very wealthy family might date a rich Hollywood actor who comes from a middle-class family, but they wouldn’t date a ‘regular’ person.

    You see this all the time: Nicola Peltz’s dad is a billionaire, and she’s married to David Beckham’s son. David Beckham is worth half a billion dollars. There is no way a millionaire heir or heiress is going to date someone middle class. The idea that ‘star-crossed lovers’ fall in love is just a trope in TV and movies.
