Does any one remember an English short story about a Law student who is outwitted by his girlfriend?

Question

I read it in the70'-80's.
He teaches logic and law to his girlfriend so he can smarten her up to be his wife for social status, but she outsmarts him at his own game and uses logic to explain to hin that she cannot marry him now.

Thanks for the input but its not either of the two.
I was in England when I read that book and it may have been in 1971.

Answer 1

I think in the long run, all men are outsmarted by their girlfriends!!

Answer 2

It sounds similar to the plot for "Born Yesterday" by Garson Kanin, originally written as a play in 1946. It was adapted into 2 films (1950, 1993) the more recent one starred Melanie Griffith, Don Johnson, and John Goodman.

Answer 3

I think it's "Love is a Fallacy" by Max Shulman.
