Mynd_44: Yes I can. I cannot marry an unintelligent woman though but since literacy and intelligence are different, I don't mind

Mynd the wise one...


Literacy and intelligence are different. We can see truth to that on Nairaland .. not all the literate folks here are smart.

@djeezy, sorry, u also get confused in dis whole thread. How many illiterate childrn hav u seen in d street doing well? Illiterate parents undoubtedly lack d power (financially & morally etc) 2 boost thier childrn's affair educationally and odawis. Illiterate parents are not gainfully employed and in dat case, how then do u expect them to manouvour thier childrens life to sound greatly resourceful? What a father has is what he gives to his children. Wen last did u see a son of a wheel barrow pusher graduating from oxford university? Most of them have d desire to train thier children but mind u, a desire that's not backed up financially becomes .... **u can complete dat**

If u leave every illiterate woman in d hands of an illiterate man, den d multiplication of illiterate children in 5yrs time might go beyond d calculation of a seven digit calculator (dont 4get they can born endlessly).

@least, one literate persn shld b instilled in d family 2 correct oda.

Correct me if am wrong!

ubong560: @Afam4eva and Danilsa, wen i say 'illiterate', i mean som1 who attended only primary sch. and stopped at primary 5 bcs she culd not complete it because of one thing or d other. She can barely write her name and express her self politely wit english. What better word can i use to decribe her oda dan 'Illiterate'?

Note: All those were unimportant to me as far as the real love i had for her was concerned?
UBONG If she did not attend any @all i can go for her, if she can express herself but what you explained above HELLNO
Re: Can You Marry An Illiterate For Love? by ubong560(m): 9:40pm On Jan 22, 2013
'HELL NO' because u think u cant help her to be who u want her to be?
Re: Can You Marry An Illiterate For Love? by ubong560(m): 9:40pm On Jan 22, 2013
'HELL NO' because u think u cant help her to be who u want her to be right?

what you described above is a stark illiterate and not an illiterate. yes i can help her if she already has some understanding not when she needs to start from nursery one again. pls ubong leme ask, will the bride price be reduced?

My last date was a secondary school dropout, but very brilliant. I never knew until she told me because her English was good and she can express herself very well, but when she rejected my offer to write WAEC for crazy reasons, i personally stated withdrawing,cant finish the story on net for privacy reasons but one has to consider a lot of factors before entering such.I rest my case.
Re: Can You Marry An Illiterate For Love? by sunnyt1(m): 11:07pm On Jan 22, 2013
Are there still illiterates out there? I mean real illiterates. How do you define it now? Ok, An illiterate is anyone who can neither read nor write and iv nt being seeing those kind of people recenly.

I can marry someone who doesnt have formal education but intelligent, teachable and logical ( havent u met some illogical and rude BSC holders).

Common dudes, its wrong to see someone as a lower human jst bcs GOD placed you in better conditions than them. If u cant marry them, there is no point singing abt it, jst blink your eye and leave, u dnt need to hurt anyone.

Do you think he is going to get any better with his attitude? I don't think it is a crime that you have a baby out of wedlock because if you see that as a reason to continue, it might get worse than it is and would be more headache than it is now.

Is the guy the one in your profile?

The way it seems is you're not sure you want to hold on to him and at the same time you dont want to let him go.

If you heard another lady is making a beeline for him, how would you feel?

Btw if una wan marry make una marry, unless something else dey the matter.
Re: Can You Marry An Illiterate For Love? by greedie1(f): 2:01pm On Jan 23, 2013
Mynd_44: After reading 3ndy's post@ I think she should open a new thread about herself
why
Re: Can You Marry An Illiterate For Love? by ubong560(m): 4:24pm On Jan 23, 2013
No matter d level of discouragement posted abv by all, i still remain vividly on my ground that i will be d happiest man on earth having dat illiterate damsel as my beautiful wife irrespective of our level of education after all she was intellectually ok just a victim of circumstances. I will only train her (after our marriage) to see her becoming who i really want her to be. Nowadays, wit ur money, one can finish sec. edu. in 3yrs and crab ur waec result (i hav many proofs on dis). What next then, straight to d university. After then, what next, ...... complete it.

B4 i wil b 35 (more dan 8yrs from now), u can bet me she wil be a graduate. Abi are we not in naija again? All of us are testifiers of all these naw during our university days.
