The whole jello and beef jerky argument is seriously silly. Sounds like something really trivial and stupid my husband and I would argue about. O
Honestly based on what you posted, about teachers irks me. I highly respect teachers, its a calling, and calling his family dim wits for picking a profession not based on $$$$$ says alot about you. If he saw this post I would guess you wouldnt have to be telling him to refund his money, he would do it on his own gladly.

I have high respect for teachers and their profession alone.
But, you now must know because teachers have refused to stick up for themselves and instead are just okay with how they are being treated it has now turned into a blue collared profession? Imagine what kind of teachers you would get to teach your kids if we were paying them 100,000. At least anything above poverty level.

I'm saying more people need to know their worth and until they do-- the profession of teaching and our education system will continue to fail. Think I am wrong? Go into a school and spend time there and see it for yourself.

I don't find it weird to have it be upsetting when someone (I am supposed to look up to and FOLLOW) is telling me how to eat when he eats badly himself, especially when I am highly conscious of eating healthy. It again goes back to having the same kind of values.

You are right, I also believe teachers are underpaid. It doesn't stop them though. Some people are not motivated by purely their income.
It is ironic that you mentioned going into the schools. I volunteer at my children's schools and the teachers are exceptional. I appreciate them so much, it's a job I could not do.

Paying teachers more isn't an ask and you shall receive proposition, the entire school system would have to change. You can't change the infrastructure of an institution and all it contains by attacking it at 1 point, but I'm sure you know that.

The whole nutrition debacle between the two of you is really what point of view you are taking. He can justify beef jerky as being nutritious if he's talking about snacks with protein, you can justify sugar free jello if you're talking about having a treat with low calories. Beef jerky IS high in sodium, but that doesn't matter if you're talking about protein; sugar free jello IS empty calories, but that doesn't matter if you're taking the stand that you need a treat to stop you from eating something else higher in calories. You both would need to understand what point you are debating, seems to me that you're both debating different ones.

Back to my original suggestion, move on. If you can't even find common ground on general life topics I'm not sure it's going to happen. You do have the choice to work at it harder and improve your communication with him if he's willing.

And why are you so invested in having a relationship that you keep trying to convince yourself to accept one which isn't going to be a good one for you? Why are you so desperate that you will take a relationship with someone you think badly of, consider to be a hypocrite, and have no problem speaking badly of?
