No School
Posted by Anonymous in Guilt on Apr 25th, 2010 | 4 commentsOk, I have been in a relationship for 5 years and have a large secret. When I was 18 I left high school (due to needing to work full time to support myself) I never returned. I never got my H.S Diploma. I have a very good job, own my own home, and I support my 2 children on my own. My boyfriend thinks I am very educated, but I do not have the heart to tell him I didn’t finish school. I do plan on going back to school for my diploma, but I feel so bad….

Its none of his business. Go get your GED thur your local community college its the fastest path. Then get a degree or certification in a vocation course. Have a happy life
Tell him. It’s nothing at all to be ashamed of, and if you’ve been together for that long you should be willing to share. If he looks at this as a problem that needs to be fixed rather than just an interesting but unimportant note about your life, gently let him know that you just didn’t want it to be a secret. This isn’t something you need to do anything about if you already have your life in order. A diploma helps you to get the things… that you already have.
You’ve done all those things without even a diploma?
You’re not a failure, you’re amazing!
there is nothing to worry about.
my dad didnt get his GED until he was in his late 30s and he was a very successful public servant.
if your man there loves you then this will be NO BIG DEAl. if he doesnt like it then he doesnt really like you.
