I may have missed it. What is your degree going to be in? What are your job prospects after you get the degree? Do you have someone lined up willing to hire you? What are you making now versus when you finish your degree? Depending upon the answers to these questions, she could be quite rational.

Regardless of whether or not you stick with her, you could look into that.

I talked to my wife about wanting to go to med school. She told me if I wanted to do it, we would sell all our stuff, she would work overtime, and we would make it happen. I couldnt let her sacrifice that much, but it just goes to illustrated the kind of woman you want on your side.

I'm in school for Physical Therapy, and I'm going all the way to a doctorate. I was going to graduate with my A.S. and be a PTA in the mean time. I will have a job for me after I graduate. Right now I'm making roughly $16/hr. After school I should be making around $30/hr. Before I'm even 30.

You're on the right track then. Don't let her opinions make your feel bad about what you're doing and your overall status in life.

There are plenty of women or there who would not only be happy when where you are not also proud. Just keep it up and don't start slacking or let the sad feelings get in the way of your work and progress. As long as you keep doing what you're doing and stay consistent you'll be good
