Question mainly for the brothers, but sisters are also welcome to chime in.

I (22M) am asking this because I've been getting pressured recently to find myself a wife. My parents have been bringing it up a lot the past few months. Uncles at the masjid have been asking me if I'm in wedlock (even though I tell them I'm only 22 😅).

Doesn't help my case that 2 guys my age (that my parents personally know) are having their weddings this month. I think I've heard the word "marriage" more times in the last 5-6 months than I have in my whole life prior to that.

Now I'm a simple man that loves his peace of mind. And a small part of me feels like caving in so this marriage talk can finally be over. But in my current state, I feel like entering a marriage is unfair on the woman's end.

So my question is, what's the bare minimum required to even consider marriage?

So I just finished Day 11 of JITL, where he covered routing fundamentals. It was a lot of content but I think I've absorbed it well, even further so after I did the labs.

As much as I love JITL, I wish we had more examples to work with in the lab videos. I know it's free content and I probably sound like an entitled guy asking for more, but I really wanna make this info stick by practicing more.

So I came across the IPv4 header topic whilst studying, and it's probably been my greatest obstacle so far.

There's several fields that we had to be aware of; I can understand what each part does, but I *can't*, for the life of me, remember how many bits are in each field.

For example, I can understand and explain in full detail what the identification field or the flags field represent with no hassle, but if you ask me the length of each one, my mind blanks 😭

I'm not sure if this can legally be answered but is this something they expect you to remember in the exam??

Is not having a degree a dealbreaker to you? I came across an ISO thread and it looks like 99% of the requirements in a husband involve being educated and having at least a bachelor's degree.

I mean, yeah it makes sense. But as a 22 yr old uni dropout, I can't help but feel worried that this is the modern standard irl.

I work in a good industry with high paying potential (my occupation lies in technology; I have plans to move into networking and then cybersecurity/firewalls once I gain more certs). It's not quite the degree that most women are looking for, but I fear it may not be enough.

I'm more than happy to just climb up the career ladder alone until I find a secure enough job, but my parents basically expect me to be in wedlock next year and I kinda agree with em.

I just want to know how much of a dealbreaker a degree-less potential is to you.
