How do I deal with my family looking down on me for marrying into money?

Growing up I didn't come from the richest family but that doesn't mean we were poor either. I'd say when I was little we were really poor but I knew no different until I got older. We had mold growing on bedrooms walls and I shared a bunkbed with my sister up to the age of 19 but we still went on nice holidays and saw a lot of the world but I never had the lates phone or designer clothes if I wanted that kind of stuff I was told to save up on my pocket money what was £2 a week or wait till Christmas/birthday and I can have some money towards it.

My parents made me work hard to get what I wanted I picked up little jobs babysitting and helping my dad at work to earn abit extra and I'm extremely grateful but I had such a humble upbringing but I'll be honest I'm dyslexic and I'm not the brightest of girls but I always knew I had my looks to help me out and but marrying rich would probably be the best idea for me. I even got told by the same people who criticize me now but "at least I'm a pretty face" and one day I'll have to marry a rich man.

I'm by far a gold digger but I always knew what I wanted in a man and but I wanted a good hard working man who would take care of me.

When I was looking for potential boyfriends I'd always look in the places in knew I'd find let's say "high value males" would be. I didn't pick up lads from the pub and have one night stands.

I'll amit when I met my now future husband I did look him up and do my research and we laugh about it now. I wouldn't say my boyfriend is super rich but he comes from a good family who've worked hard and he has a lot going for him so why the hell wouldn't I want to be with him.

When we were first dating he showed me the finder things and I showed him a little bit more of my life as well.

I literally have 2 designer bags and ones a kate spade barely paris hilton am I. I know have a shot gun and have a barbour coat lol but I feel as if I have to hide these things from my family.

My voice has changed as I'm hanging around richer people and I do enjoy some nice luxuries there but it M&S not Harrods. My family are little jealous especially my two older sisters mainly because I was always the but of the joke in the family and now I'm the one with the riches partner. They call me a snob, gold digger and that I think I'm posh now but I don't think I've changed that much at all I still shop at primark and enjoy maccies

My family think anything over £25 is expensive and if they see me dressed nice and a little expensive they all have something to say about it but its my money I worked hard for it I'm allowed to enjoy nice things. Plus if I bought a cheap pair coat from primark it probably be ruined and out of fashion within a year but it buy something expensive and high quality I can wear it for years and even past it down so who's really the stupid one with money.

We only have one life and then we die
