different places

You ever have a conversation and something seems slightly off, like nothing has been said specifically, but you feel like maybe this person might be of a different economic class than you, or a different political belief, or something like that?

Its kind of an odd feeling, especially if that person seems to be of a "higher" status than you. Nothing they have said makes it seem like they are looking down on you, but you feel instinctively like they are out of your league in some way.

I had something like that last night. It felt like meeting someone while backpacking. Like you would never for any other reason meet except under these circumstances and thus enjoy it while it lasts, but don't have any ideas beyond that.
Good conversation, shared interests, but it felt like completely different worlds. Maybe I was just distracted and not perceiving things right.

Also, if I were interested in someone, would it still bother me that they were in a business industry?

This is the best part of the trip, this is the part I really like.
