A young woman has opened up about the demise of her six-year relationship, attributing it to her dedication to pursuing higher education.
Reflecting on the beginnings of their romance during Junior High School (JHS), she fondly recounted dreams of marriage that they nurtured as teenage sweethearts, envisioning a future together post-studies.
However, as their paths diverged, with her commitment to academic growth leading her to university after completing a certificate course and securing employment, tensions arose within their relationship.
The turning point arrived when she expressed her intention to pursue a master’s degree, to which her partner responded with disapproval, citing a dislike for highly educated women.
“So, I was in a relationship for six years, that was my first love and we both had our dream of getting married because we were young then.
“I had completed JHS by then, so we decided to wait until marriage. But along the line, due to peer pressure and all that, we had sex, and we thought that the relationship would lead to marriage.
“So, after SHS, I had to do a normal certificate course before going to the university. After the course, I started to work, so he thought that all was done with my education, while he also went into trade.
“I went to the university, and during level 200, he asked, what is the plan now? So, I was saying that I would work for a while and pursue my masters and all that,” she said in the video shared on X (formerly Twitter.)
This disagreement escalated when he abruptly announced plans to marry someone else, leaving her heartbroken and questioning the compatibility of their aspirations.
“He just said, as for me, I don’t like a lady who is so educated. I just thought that it was a normal mere saying, but not knowing that it was not.
“One Sunday, I was just there, and he sent me a message: I want to get married. So, I said, then let me finish my school, then we get married. He said, no, I am getting married next week, so yes, that is how I got my heart broken.
“I just cried it off and pretended everything was okay. And then I continued with my studies,” she added.
Through tears and resilience, she continued her educational journey, sharing her story as a testament to the complexities of balancing personal ambitions with romantic relationships.

This is one too many issues. It is sometime like this. Just pick up the pieces and move. You will certainly find someone as good as him or better than him. Next relationship should be quality as yourself. You really deserve the best
Is unfortunate, but me too I don’t like a lady who is higher than me because I know these days women. If it happens like that there will be no woman at the house. Therefore”S3 BREBRE AMMA A, AMANIE NSO MMA!
