My boyfriend doesn’t wear sunglasses and he drives a truck with over 100,000 miles on it that he’s had for ten years. I like shiny, new things with high end labels and he likes labels that say things like “non-perishable.”He’s a musician who earns his living teaching guitar and playing his bluesy, rocking gigs in low ceilinged clubs around town. “It’s important work,” he’ll say, “and if I won’t do it, who will?” While I often think, someone else?? My boyfriend jokes that I’m his “uptown girl” and while he appreciates the ‘finer’ things, he’s happy to let them fall under my jurisdiction. My boyfriend is a do-gooder with a fully funded Karma account, and I am happily, do-gooder adjacent.
