Hi myLotters, just wondering how many of you would marry someone who is less educated than you. Just to share with you guys that I'm a degree holder and my spouse only finished his primary school education. We are happily married now with 2 daughters. I can still remembered those very difficult times we had convincing my parents. My mum was 200% against my relationship with him. Many people especially my university friends were very surprised when I married him. I don't regret my decision at all cos my hubby is a humble, down-to-earth and caring man who puts his family (my daughters and me) as his pirority. Happy myLotting=))

well said and agree with. marrying a person is not for what is he is. Its for who he is and how he treats you. Let say if you marry a guys who is rich, highly educated and good looking. They all have the issue that we need to worry about. For instance a rich man may not have a humble heart and be very bossy. Some highly educated people have a problem mingling with people who are less educated that them. A good looking man though can always cheat behind our back at any time. I am not saying all men are like this but maybe 60% of them are. So marry a man for who he is what he is not for his status.

Yes, this is exactly how I feel when I was dating my schoolmates during my University time. They were so cocky and full of themselves and don't even have humble heart. That is why when I met my hubby, I was so attracted by his simpleness, humbleness and down-to earth attitude.

Well, number one, your family has no say in who you marry.

Number two, no one ever said that marriage required the potential spouse to be a brain surgeon either.

I don't see things like this. I look at the person for who they are inside. I look at their actions in how they treat people.

I might not want to waste my time with someone who only want to play around all the time but if they are intelligent or dumb in my view that's a different story.

I've been with men before that were of different education levels and I have to tell you. There's no real difference!

Hello there, thanks for your great response. I totally agreed with you that the character and the attitude of a person is more important than educational level. But as you know parents are parents especially mother. I am very glad that we persisted on and I know that I have made the right choice. Cheers=))

I think there is no issue about it. if the person who is getting married is wel satisfied by the idea that they can live happily ever after then parents should refrain from interweaving.

Hi thhoon... i am glad to hear that you are happy every minute with your spouse... and its quite common with love marriages i presume... but i have seen many arranged marriages breaking up the relationship due to inferioity complex... especially when the guy is less educated and less earning... then surely he will develop complex towards his own wife and their life becomes hell because of that... but you are lucky dear... so enjoy your life to the fullest... take care.... love is always true...

I don't think the education level matters as much when you're with someone. But, what does matter, is that you're evenly matched in your level of intelligence and maturity.
