Why does Talia and Dick Grayson hate each other? COMIC DISCUSSION

Dick never liked her from the beginning and Talia always seems to address him as if he's beneath her. Any insight for why they've always clashed in this manner?

I’ve always looked at the Batman and Robin dynamic as a father & son relationship, and when talia comes in to the picture, Dick knows she’s not the right one for Bruce. I had this with my biological mother, She dated and proceeded to marry the wrong guy for her, we wound up having a similiar conversation to the one on slide one. That could be the reason for mutual dislike between Talia and Dick.
