There is nothing like really wants to marry him. On mo account should a Nigerian woman marry a Nigerian man without her family’s support.

Am hurt, 4 years relationship about to go down the drain.first time meeting her parents was last week Sunday, they did welcome me with a smiling face.
After all the introductions and making my intentions known to them I like to marry their daughter.

my girlfriend called me on phone yesterday that she's coming over, which she did and start saying that her elder bro and her mum is kicking against our marriage. i asked why? she said because am an Ssce holder.

yes I might be an Ssce holder, but am self employed doing well for myself (I noi de beg to chop) isn't that enough.

can't an Ssce holder marries a bsc, msc or a phd holder.
why the discrimination towards a brother because of a white man education?
because of a white sheet of paper.

I believe every person should have at least a national diploma. Ssce is like primary school certifcate of 70s.

If she can't convince her people, omo find your way. Everything is not about money or being able to provide.

If e pain you well well, start part time.

i suspected as much, she once told me to further though but I knocked it off.
it never occurred to me it would matter.

There is no time left. Marriage is a choice between two people, until your girl understand this.

If you have so much money from your business, hey will not give any dumb excuse. Education will not bless you, It is God that will bless you.

I learn to be very proud of God and know my self worth. If your girl can't marry you because of your education. Then close heart and let her go.

This same notion of "how can a 36 year old man go back to school" is actually the problem, back then in school some of my course mates were above 50 and they were doing just fine like some of us that were young, if you feel you are too old for conventional universities then why not go to National Open University? That's where you will find a whole lots of men and women who are older, richer, poorer, intelligent, duller infact anything you can think of than you...
Just like most people are saying, not like you are inferior to others but u need not to be told to do the needful...if sponsorship is actually the problem then it's a different ball game entirely...thank u

When I talk, one redpiller will start quoting me with terrible English.

Despite the fact that our mothers married early, if you come for their 20yrs old daughters in 2021, they will pursue you! Affliction shall not rise a second time. They will tell you to allow her to graduate. Next they’ll tell you to allow her to serve. Then they will tell you to allow her to get a job. All this is to buy time!

The major exception is if you both are relatively young or they are so broke they need you to elevate. If not, they will look out for their daughter because the kind of men you would meet when you are working in KPMG is different from the ones you meet as a broke undergraduate.

If you are a man above 34, you must bring more to the table. If you want a very young educated girl from a middle class home, you must make her very comfortable. She can’t be trekking under hot sun and jumping Obalende bus with a man that conductors would mistake for her uncle/father.

I can so relate.

My parents married very early. In fact, my mama don born all her children finish at my age.
But my papa no even wan hear 'mar' not to talk of 'rriage' from me now.
He will ask me where I am rushing to or who dey pursue me. undecided
His own na to send me every news about NOI, Christine Lagarde, Chimamanda et al. But I just want to be a baby girl embarassed grin

So when I see some girls talking about pressure from family to marry, I find it difficult to relate.
Indeed, times are a changing.

Asides the fact that you are self employed If you have a property or something tangible that can make them convinced that you are strong financially both present and future and that their daughter will not suffer in your hands do so. They are skeptical about your goals and future ambitions

Exactly, I think this is the only way they can let there daughter go. If you have assets, and it's worth a lot over the years, they will be convinced enough that, if you go broke, and can't get a job because you have ordinary ssce, then you have something to fall back on

Do you think this OP is not knowledgeable?
If the family can tell him not to marry their daughter because he doesn't have a BSc, they will most likely cause bigger problem in his life even if he has the said certificate.

Not having a particular degree doesn't mean someone is not ready to acquire knowledge. In today's world, higher education degrees mostly favors the academicians.

If they like him, they could simply advice him and tell him why they think having a higher degree will help his life.

OP. I went through some of the comments right here, some are fabulous to take a note of and some are well educated and with nothing on their head. Let me tell you this. Not everyone of us will have the opportunity to be educated, neither by your parents or by yourself.

But best things you can achieve in life is self happiness. Do what makes you happy.

Imagine when you finished your Ssce, you had an opportunity to travel to USA and with four years, you came back to asked her for a marriage. Will her parents turned you down? Even when they know your education background.

A relationship of four years. I expect your GF to Know much about you and I expect her to stand up for you in situation like this.

So my brother do what makes you happy. Life is all about happy and money. If being educate is the way forward in Nigeria. Nobody will be here responding to your post. Because everyone should be working at Aso Rock or NNPC.
