@ Kalooka & Shalfat , Masha allah, i wish we have more married men like you in Egypt, God bless u ,

Answer 3

well, my wife is going to have Masters degree and i m not, and i m proud of her..

Answer 4

In actual fact academics qualifications are just a piece of paper. I am not saying its totally unnecessary but it simply doesn't mean that the more educated person actually knows more than you.A while ago I had to go out for lunch with this Indian guy for a business outing and he was bragging about his masters degree he got from UK and his PhD he was working on and stuff but when I talked to him he trust me even a 10 grader knows more than him. He couldn't even handle his knife and fork properly lol.

Even for applying for jobs nowadays academics are just the basics employers look at so many other qualities in employees because history has proven if somebody is more qualified he isn't nescesarily good in doing the actual thing.

But to be honest if my partner is more qualified I kind of feel jealous lol I can't help it!

Edit:Of course not it would not affect my relationship and it never did.In life you can't be better than everybody in everything, its a fact.

Answer 5

I can confirm Kalooka's feeling. My wife already had her master degree and I am always very proud of her.

.

Answer 6

That would not affect their life in anyway but if the wife's salary is more than that of the man then it is a problem.

I would not be proud but I will admit it to others with no shame

Answer 7

It wouldn;'t bother me at all. she loves me and everything else is just to the side

Answer 8

the problem is always others , what will they think , and since I stopped caring about '' others '' I don't care at all , I'll tell every one proudly and s***w what they think .

Answer 9

I'd have no problem, so she can let me know and correct me before I make a stupid mistake or decision........

Besides, some girls look really fine w/ glasses :D
