upgrade myself?
so to you am not upgraded enough? because am an Ssce holder.
please bro this discriminations needs to stop.

pocohantas:


OP doesn’t need to further his education. The ones that furthered, how far?

OP should simply look for his fellow SSCE holder. There are many of them out there. Some of them have shade where they sell cortex and petals hair relaxer. He wants to marry graduate ba? So that when he enters bank and the customer service officer is rude, he would tell her he has her type at home.

He shouldn’t give me that, “I just love her for her”. No human loves you for just existing, maybe your parents. But even those ones, as you begin to grow, they want you to take first in class, they want you to get a good job, they want you to buy them cars like your mates are doing. There are qualities OP loves in her. OP himself is not so altruistic.

Well, the emphasis is on written English, not spoken English.

When I was a student in the University of Ibadan, I had a lecturer who spoke English with a thick Ibadan accent and we used to make fun of him. Today he's a PhD doctoral candidate in Tufts University in the United States and his articles have been published in international journals.

Your ability to express yourself fluently and competently matters.

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.

You can go back to school. I can't allow my daughter to marry illiterate even if he's a billionaire.

Samcent:

Upgrading his educational level is good, but he should not upgrade just because he wants to please the in-laws to be.
What if after upgrading, they come up with other criteria; maybe he must be a car and a house owner.

The girl's parents are more concerned with their ego than the happiness of their daughter.

Op, if you so love your babe you can make that sacrifice for her. However, just pray that this will be the last of demands from her parents even after the wedding.

coldcandy:


Lol..
Then he is an incurable egoist

GraciousGod190:

i understand you sir, when I heard it yesterday I was hurt deep down. I felt low, felt intimidated.
i do love my girlfriend, but how can a 36 year old man goes back to school because he wants to get married to a girl?.

i can make other meaningful sacrifices, but definitely not This.
thanks.

PrimadonnaO:
They may never respect you.

Just move on.

Especially since your babe couldn't even defend you.

She's been dating you all these while and she knew your educational background.

If I were your babe, and I've made up my mind to go ahead and marry you, I wouldn't have even mentioned it.

It's not their business. Because if I do go ahead to marry you knowing what they know, I wouldn't want to deal with my folks disrespecting my husband on a ground like that.

******************
It's possible she's using that as an excuse to leave you.

That crying she's doing is mere theatrics.

Lmao. Something dey touch for una head o. Do they teach how to speak good English in the university? I spoke better English when I was in secondary school. Na then we were taught how to speak sweet English. Our professors for university sef no fit speak better English. They're good in their area of expertise sha. My point: University education no go make you speak better English

Spartachico007:
Upgrade your self bro and it doesn’t have to be cause of the rejection ,what if you’re business grows into a multimillion company and then you will want to run for a public office that requires a higher institution certificate ....what will you .... we aren’t electing any ssce holder into higher places in government anymore

dawnomike:
Let that motivate you to upgrade your educational background or find a lady whose family will not have problem with your education.

Columbine:
A family can allow an educated man marry their daughter with no form of education whatsoever, but don't be surprised that the same family will not allow their daughter marry an uneducated man or a man they see as not highly educated, that's the irony of life. Do what you want to do because that's what you want, not because that's what others want. Is the girl I pity, she'll be heartbroken.

thank you my sister brother. At my I still dey read nosec because I want to speak better English

Oga, both! My essays in secondary school were one of the best that year. Now, I don forget sef wetin be essay. These articles are mostly cross checked and edited by so many persons before publishing.. My professor own no be accent. He will spell "receive" as "recieve". There's this word called "etiquette", he pronounces this word as it is "e-ti-kwi-tey" . He and other professors make spelling blunders that even primary school students would spell effortlessly. University does not improve your spoken English. Buhari no go school, but I tell you, he speaks better than most northerner professors. And him be confirmed illiterate o

GraciousGod190:

upgrade myself?
so to you am not upgraded enough? because am an Ssce holder.
please bro this discriminations needs to stop.

advanceDNA:


U funny...people wey no get family no dey marry??
Orphans no dey marry??
Yeah..it's good when family of your spouse like u...but na u and your spouse the main issue.

When u find someone good for u...and family is dropping foolish reasons like certificate, he's short, he's black, he's yoruba, his nose is big, he has forehead.. there's nothing wrong in using strategy to make them accept..

dahmie2013:

My brother, seeking knowledge has nothing to do with age. This attitude is not the best. I still advise you go to school and upgrade yourself.
