I'm think I feel insulted.
Yuck, where do I start? The other day I was having a conversation with my boss (of whom I'm also kind of friends with.) We were talking about one of her friends and his dating life. Everything was going fine until she decided to describe to me the "kind of girl" that he always dates. She went on to describe "nice enough girls" but then described them as the type that buy their clothes at walmart, never have much money and probably never will, and always wear their "Oh so carefully applied .99 cent nail polish."
So yeah my boss grew up with decent money and went to a BIG college and will never be poor. Good for her.
Did she realize that I was sitting there listening to her in my shirt and socks and shoes that were bought at Walmart? Or that I grew up poor, and am working my way through community college and therefore am cash-less? And actually GLANCED at my nails so carefully painted with my on-sale nail polish that I'm sure cost less than $2 ?
What the FUCK ??? Am I supposed to just pour my nail polish over my hands or maybe throw it on with a roller because if it's not stupid expensive it's not worth trying to look nice?
I don't think she had a clue, and I don't think she meant anything toward me at all, but it still kind of sucked.

WOW! Ummm.. Even though not all women have the financial power to buy nicer things, we still find products, no matter the price or the store, for us.

Maybe she did know, and was trying to set you up with her friend?
Sounds like she has some security issues (or she's very pretentious)
Reminds me a bit of my step-mother and her sister. Growing up, things were financially tight. We weren't what I'd call poor, but we were far from wealthy. My "step-aunt" on the other hand, was very finally set. They owned a few companies and did very well for themselves.
Whenever you'd talk to either one, they would both had the same type of comment towards each other. My step-aunt would say her sister always seems miserable since she can't afford to travel all over the world like they did. My step-mother would say her sister always seems miserable and that money can't buy happiness and she probably wishes she was happier like her.
Don't worry about what other people think.
P.S.
Always put your nail polish on carefully. Nothing worse than paint on your fingers.
She's probably never been to a WalMart. She's seriously missing out on that experience. They sell some good stuff there. She'd probably be pleasantly surprised and just might find something she can't live without. And who gives a schit what nail polish or clothes cost? Obviously if y'all are friends, she can't tell the difference. I think sgt is right - she was trying to feel you out to see if you wanted to go out with her friend. She wouldn't do that if she didn't like you.
Funny you mention that. People are always calling me psychic.
No wait... it was psycho. Never mind.
I'm not afraid to admit I can't deal with going to Walmart. Its mostly that there are lots of people in narrow isles who are as unhappy to be there as I am.
Walmart also seems to hire the most unhappy people in the world. I'm not sure where the ones from the comercials work, but never at the ones I go to.
Ok Sgt. so the thing about the workers is true. AND they always feel the need to give me their life story and all of it's horrible-ness at the check out. NEVER and I mean NNEEVVEERR ask who the people are on the pins that they wear on their smoks. OMG.
Sometimes I ask just to make polite chatter and it always ends up being a cousin or child or friend of a friend that died of an OD or car accident. Or some child that isn't their own but lives with them cuz their parents are druggies. ALWAYS.
Do it I dare you, but don't be surprised.
People seem to forget that "how are you" is a Rhetorical question in the form of a greeting.
Well.. that and I really don't care about your bunions or that they only pay you $4.00 per hour.
