Different types of people had different kinds of lives in the middle ages. It mattered allot how high up in the feudal system you were. If you were very close to William the Conqueror you would have had a better life. If you were a peasant in the middle ages then life would not be so good for you. Peasants in the middle ages were often short on food and they did not have very good clothing. Peasants did not usually get a choice at the beginning of the day what they were going to wear because they only had one set of clothes that they would wear every single day. Peasants did not wash in a bath like we do but they washed in a river, stream or a lake. That is, if they bothered. Most didn't bother. They would just dirty themselves again by getting into their beds. Upper class people would have had a fairly good life because they could afford more things. They could afford plenty of food and nice clothes. They lived a happy life and did not allot.
