@OP,
a relationship has to start from somewhere and i dont think a university relationship suceeds better or fails faster than a relationship started anywhere else, its all a function of the people involved

i'm sure there's no data to any purported percentage of success or failure that some people have claimed here

@OP: its significantly harder for such relationships to come close to marriage in the Nigeria of today where there are no jobs. Like freecocoa( who happens to be a student from d Uni, i finished from) pointed out, girls these days want Firm guarantees about finance. U no expect guy wey im no know how im go chop tomorrow dey reason marriage. Parental affluence plays a key role, if am assured that the moment am out of school, i would be managing one of my father's companies(e.g Dangote, Adenuga etc), I would MARRY INSIDE d university.

Yes, most times. It depends on the time of relations u might keep in the University. Most times couple in serious relationship at uni get married and i know a few of this couples.

15%, more convenient if both of one of them gets a job or reasonable source of income after school else they face different challenges that boils down to finance and blame it on something else,
my experience- calls reduced, visits reduced cos i was more interested in starting a job and then come back to her but of course, it never happened.

Nov 26 2005 I started a relationship with this wonderful lady while in the university. Early next year she will be in my house as my wife. University love ends in marriage atimes.

most relationship hardly result in marriages today, sometime ago more university relationships resulted to marriages than today for many reasons.
Some years back the average university graduate was almost guaranteed of living a comfortable life after school than today's graduate. another factor is girls tend to marry at a younger age than men and their university boyfriend might not be financially ready and for girls age matter a lot because as they grow older their chance of getting married reduces so they find it hard to wait for anyone more especially when they are not sure their boyfriend will still marry them after waiting. Another reason is that in Nigerian university dating age mates does not look odd to men but when it comes to marriage they find it odd and there is the feeling of insecurity.

It is trash. a large percentage of such end up @ the sch gate. Most guys in universities date in order to be able to satisfy themselves sexually and keep up with d trend

Babes, what's with the sexist vibe? From simple averages, there are more guys at the top of the class than girls, so it's more likely to have girls parasiting on the guys in the name of relationships. More likely, I said. Of course it happens in the other direction too.

university relationships are bleeping wastes of time.
1. the dude wouldn't have the financial stability to marry the girl soon after graduation
2. they are almost of same age
3. a rich serious man is out there somewhere waiting to whisk the girl away

As if say university boys dey get money,mscheeew,all they know how to do is call and say"babe did you cook?I'm coming or babe just borrow me 5h I go go atm later" any girl waiting for a boy in the uni with her is wasting her time,if it ever works,its one out of a hundred cases.

that means mine may likely work out.
both of us are in the same level (300) but I'll be graduating before her as mine is a 4 year course while hers is 8 full years (internship and nysc inclusive) so before she finished God helping me I might have already been established. cool
