Would you rather the person you marry...?

Question

Just wondering would you prefer to marry someone who is

A- the same race as you

B-has an education either at your same level or above yours

Thanks!

Answer 1

i think the problem is that, you're concerned with what other people will think.  An education or race has nothing to do with love.  If you love this person it shouldnt matter what people think to you, what education level they're on and what race they are.  h**l, we're all one race......human beings!  I know several people who have degrees and dont know a thing under them.  Follow your heart and you will be ok.

Answer 2

B.

who wants a dumb guy??

Answer 3

As A "preference", I would like to marry someone of the same race. Only because I have an image of what my children might look like some day. Education is great, but if the person has common sense, that could take them just as far. Basically, you don't have to have a "perfect person". You just have to have a compatible person, who makes you happy.

Answer 4

i'm already married, but if i had to choose, i would always pick a person with common sense. you would be surprised how many people lack it, regardless of race or education!!!!

Answer 5

I can't chose A or B...it's important for me to have both.

Answer 6

A My wife has more education than my self.

Answer 7

B-has an education either at your same level or above mine for sure.

The question addresses the reality of me wanting to talk with my wife after the lights are out.  I am marrying someone for life.  I don't care if she is black or asian hispanic  native American what is most impt is can she communicate besides physically.

Answer 8

B.

Race doesn't matter to me. I'd rather marry an educated person of any race.

Answer 9

A for sure!!!

Answer 10

How about prefer to marry someone for love.

Neither A nor B matter if you are happy.

People worry too much about unimportant things which puts a hold on marriage.

Answer 11

I would pick A. Because picking A, I know they can always go out and get an education if wanted. ..

Answer 12

Education

Answer 13

Um, why exactly do those two things have to be mutually exclusive? And what do they have to do with each other?

I would rather marry someone who I get along with, who I love, and with whom I'm compatible.

Answer 14

id rather marry someone i love and who loves me

awnser mine?

Answer 15

The same race....education says nothing. Athough i think asian-europeans atre the best looking people on the planet

Answer 16

A& B, but only A happened and B did not but i survived 35 years

Answer 17

I choose B.. I dont care that much about the race of the person I marry.... I also dont care that much about their education as long as they are an intelligent person and are financially stable so I dont have to fully support them... but I'm pretty sure you wanted us to choose one or the other lol

Answer 18

You realize that's a rough and loaded question, right?

My husband is the same race, but has one less degree than I do.   It kind of bugs me that he isn't more successful.  (especially since he is smarter than I am)

Answer 19

All the guys but one I have dated have all been my race, and their educations varied. Overall it's personality that I'd look at first but out of those two options I'd say A - the same race as me.

Answer 20

B-, cause if u always choose race then u could be missing out on a lot of other things to learn with other races. Someone who is highly educated will always be willing to go outside the box. Whether it be movies, clubs, s*x, dating, family,etc...

That's just my opinion.

Answer 21

when i was a college professor (i am retired) i saw many solid high school romances fall apart when the man went to work in the trades and the woman went to college. so, i will guess that educational parity is important, at least from the woman's point of view.  

Answer 22

It would depend on the person.

My husband is the same race as me but currently has less education. However, he is wildly successful with the education he has. Ambition is a big thing. Plus he is going to school right now and will eventually end up with more education than me.

Race can also be important, but it isn't necessarily. If two people are compatible and their backgrounds don't get in the way, than who cares.

Answer 23

B - having the same education level probably means that your values and ideas about education are similar. My husband and I both have a degree after college - he has an MBA and I have a JD. Education is very important to us, along with many of our other values. We happen to both be white but it wouldn't have mattered if he weren't.  

Answer 24

I would prefer them being the same race as myself.

Answer 25

no and no.

all you need is someone who completes and complements you :)

Answer 26

no and no.
