Stay at home.Donot consider renting a house of your own becos people will start gossipping & giving you bad names.Solution:God will send a man who has the exact same character as your dad as husband.WATCH OUT in next 3months.Wedding takes place in december,2013

@op I FEEL YOU JARE, NA THIS SOCIETY WEY WE FIND OURSELVES, IT IS GENERALLY BELIEVED THAT AT 3O YEARS A WOMAN MUST BE MARRIED ESPECIALLY IN NIGERIA...NOW THE BIGGEST PROBLEM MILITATING AGAINST THIS IS THE BAD ECONOMY. TRUTH BE TOLD, MOST GUYS BETWEEN THE AGES OF 30-38 ARE EITHER UNEMPLOYED OR BROKE OR STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE, HOW THEN CAN YOU EXPECT HIM TO MARRY? TAKE A LOOK AROUND YOU, MOST GUYS YOU GRADUATED WITH ARE EITHER STILL LOOKING FOR JOBS OR LIVING WITH THEIR PARENTS SO THEY CANNOT SHOULDER THE RESPONSIBILITY OF MARRIAGE. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU DEAR, LIVE YOUR LIFE,FOCUS ON YOUR CAREER....PRAY ALWAYS THAT GOD WOULD SEND YOUR OWN MAN TO YOU AND AGAIN BE READY TO ACCEPT HIM THE WAY HE IS WHENEVER HE SHOWS UP....DON'T LET HIS FINANCIAL STATUS BE A BARRIER. GROW TOGETHER! CHEERS!

Happyness_Chima: I'm 31 And Nobody Is Asking My Hand In Marriage

Good day nairaland. I'm 31 years old female, single and unmarried. I want to get married by the end of this year by Gods grace. All the men that approach me either are unsettled yet or one problem or the other. At first I wasn't desperate, but I don't know what im doing wrong. When I go out to have fun, my siblings start complaining that im attending parties and staying out late too much. Is it in our parlour a man will marry me? I'm trying to enjoy life by looking on to the bright side but still feel empty inside of me. What else can I do to get married at least by the end of the year? Any others I my shoes can input as well.

u are desperate, it does not come that way

Hello OP, I understand how you feel because I have once had female relations who had it all financially and beauty-wise, but were unable to find suitor, and I will tell you some truths here, pls don’t take it as an insult, just use it to liberate your mind.

The truth is that your problem started the very day you landed that job in a blue chip company, which I know already to be an oil firm (NLNG, Chev or Mob). As k me why I said that? As an African woman, you are wired to become- pompous, arrogant, prideful, disrespectful, etc to men who earn lesser than you once you are earning a big income, that’s a proven fact, and all African men crave for respect from their women, reason why most Nigerian guys find it difficult to consider single ladies earning big income for marriage except you guys had been dating before you got the job and you remained loyal and humble, and didn’t turn unruly and wayward like most single ladies in Nigeria that earn high income.

Remember, reasonable men don’t care about how much you have or how many countries you have visited before they consider you to be their wife; all they care for is- humility, respect, homeliness, decency, and generally good character, do you have those qualities or have you thrown them away in the midst of living glossy life and hoping that your fat pocket and widely travelled status would secure you a husband? If so, you need to work on your character and pray fervently to God for the grace of humility and moral uprightness.

From your words (pls forgive me if I sound harsh, just trying to help you see certain truths), you have intentionally blacklisted certain group of guys who are obviously your best bet in this situation. I know that deep down your heart, you want a man that’s earning higher than you, who must also be widely exposed like you, and that maybe your mistake number one because not every lady will marry a very rich guy, and not every lady will have a good-paying job that you already have, so you see God might have given you that good job for you to build your own family, for you to help your husband to be to stand, while you are busy complaining and waiting for Dangote’s younger son to come marry you, pls wake up.

Another painful truth is this: most men earning higher than you wouldn’t want to marry a lady who is earning big income because they wouldn’t want disrespect from their woman and they do want a homely woman who would respect them and have time to take care of their kids (not all, but most, talking from male perspective though), and that’s why you see such men going to marry ladies with peanut job, or those that are still serving in NYSC or unemployed and with no or less exposure like you have.

Real men don’t marry a woman because of where she works, how much she earns, where she lives or family she comes from, they marry for love, good character and person. In order words, if you want to increase your chances of finding a husband, please consider guys who are still working towards becoming financially free and work diligently and prayerfully with them to build your own home, but if you like, ignore this, you might still find your fantasy husband as God permits.

I am not saying you should go and sponsor a man, nope, but there are average guys looking for working class ladies like you, consider them, and stop complaining that they are unsettled, blah, blah, blah, and waiting for those that are earning higher than you cos it may not be God’s plan for you.

Try and be visiting home (village I mean) during Easter and Christmas. One of my friends that was born and brought up here in Nigeria met his wife in the village during Xmas, and guess what? The girl returned from United States to celebrate xmas in the village too, and FYI, her dad happened to be a very wealthy doctor in the states, and yet, she couldn’t find a husband in New York until she came to the village. They are living so happily married in the states right now.

One of my cousins met his wife in the village during xmas, and another of my close friend who wedded last Easter met his wife in the village during xmas and the girl returned from Abuja too. Guys no longer go to churches to search for wife because churches have been infiltrated by bad girls desperate for husband, reason you see guys going back home. School is another good environment, and if you must consider church, then you must be truly committed to not just Sunday activities, but weekly activities, can you?

So don’t just think that you will only meet your husband in the city- UK, Germany, etc….he maybe waiting for you in the village. But most importantly, change your mindset- money is nothing, and when I say nothing, I mean NOTHING, so remove money and status from your search and look for men with vision and creativity, and stop seeing yourself as too big for certain kinds of men cos your God destined husband might be amongst those class of men you had been snaring at, be wise, life doesn’t always work as we wish and plan it to.

Good luck.

Nne dont worry! You've taken the first bold step. Afterall, problem shared is half solved. 31 years is not too old an age though quite ripe. There are so many friends i have just like you. In fact, one is a manager in one of the Telecomms, drives an SUV, still a virgin @ 36yrs! She hardly goes out except weddings,birthdays etc. Try and avoid going in groups with your fellow girls when out for social gatherings, a guy that wants to talk to you might be intimidated by the flock of chicks/your gfs around you, gfs can also yab or badmouth when they are in groups so even if you spot a guy you are cutting an eye for they might spoil it for you by yabbing the heck out of the guy grin .Limit hanging out with married friends too,you might be assumed to be married as well. For now avoid wearing rings, yes including cocktail rings, soemtimes guys cannot even differentiate which one is which, when you finally get hooked you can wear 10 on your fingers if you chose to.
Like others have said, have an open mind as you might even meet your Mr. Right on this thread despite all the junks being posted here by some boys guys tongue. Just give a try to any of the proposals on here but use your head. YOU MUST BE THE ONE TO CHOSE MEET UP PLACE(PUBLIC) remember Cynthia's case cry
Above All, pray and ask God to lead you and i'm sure if you have a very strong intuition/discerning mind you will never go wrong!
By the way I got married at 31yrs and i met my darling HUBBY on FACEBOOK yes you heard me FACEBOOK!

All the best gal....

I share your pain but I think you should also take into consideration these opinion of mine
» Reduce your flashy dressing
» Reduce your class
» Don't show your despiracy to any man cos he may end up dumping you
» Please, please and please, never give your all to any man but that does not mean you should't be heads down as soon as you get one. May be me, Only God knows

@ poster,I have tried to read ur posts and i can see u r desperate. You dnt have to tell d whole world you travel to UK on vacations or have a good job. Let men find these out themselves. Do u think those sending you PMs really have true feelings for you when dey havent even seen ur face? They r there to play and if u think anyone of them will be serious, let me advise you that dat guy will play very smart till he gets what he wants from you and he wont marry u in d long run.
I think you need to work on ursef cos u mayb d architect of ur own problem
You shldnt even think of dating any of the guys dat sent u PM cos u said initially dat u ddint come here to look for a date or whom to marry but to look 4 advise.U had better dont get carried away by those PMs.
I have learnt a lesson in life, a man shld look out for a woman and not the other way round.
This is d way i wuld talk to a friend or younger sista
Thank u

you must be a very wise lady...but most working class single ladies of today don't reason like you, I know many of them, I see lots of them, and I know they will be waiting and hoping to meet one celebrity guy to marry them, maybe they will wait for eternity!!!

You can't win in everything in life- it hardly works; you must win in some areas and fail in some. You have already won in securing a good job that most of your mates dream of, so don't cry too much about finding your dream man, cos maybe you are destined to build your dream man, while you are here daydreaming of men who are settled to come marry you...pls dear sister wake up and look around you, there must be good guys with great prospects who aren't settled the way you desire, work with them and bring out the best in them and see what would happen.

...and this is where I blame feminist with their gender-equality nonesense!!! Now, out of trying to equalize everything, more single ladies have been over financially empowered more than the single guys- as you can see, we now have more single girls earning big income than guys, and these single girls have refused to come down low, instead they keep daydreaming and clamoring to marry the few guys who are earning big, and reason you see them being used and dumped by some playboys cos one rich playboy will be controlling more than 20 different working class girls while one decent guy earning average income is out there searching for one good girl to love and marry, and those girls keep turning him down and running after the settled guys...

but even if a guy is working in the moon and earning bigger than Bill Gates, he wouldn't mind marrying a poor girl with no educational qualification so long as he loves her, but a woman would never do that once she starts earning big income, reason why nature doesn't support a single woman being so much financially empowered, but the European and American culture has brainwashed us and now we are reaping the consequences.

OP, just come down and stop daydreaming for a very settled man, and if luckily he comes, thank God and grab him, but for now, come down and face the reality, the Nigerian economy isn't as favourable as you think, and the poor guy you see today doesn't mean he isn't dreaming and planning to become the next Dangote, maybe your love and presence may inspire him to greatness....look for men with vision, talent and focus and work with one and see....thank me later.

nikkykay: @ poster,I have tried to read ur posts and i can see u r desperate. You dnt have to tell d whole world you travel to UK on vacations or have a good job. Let men find these out themselves. Do u think those sending you PMs really have true feelings for you when dey havent even seen ur face? They r there to play and if u think anyone of them will be serious, let me advise you that dat guy will play very smart till he gets what he wants from you and he wont marry u in d long run.
I think you need to work on ursef cos u mayb d architect of ur own problem
You shldnt even think of dating any of the guys dat sent u PM cos u said initially dat u ddint come here to look for a date or whom to marry but to look 4 advise.U had better dont get carried away by those PMs.
I have learnt a lesson in life, a man shld look out for a woman and not the other way round.
This is d way i wuld talk to a friend or younger sista
Thank u
Very thoughtful of you...if she likes, let her ignore your warning...but I must commend your sense of reasoning....and I am suspecting that you are happily married from how mature and sensible you sound, stay blessed.

I hate it when ppl say keep being whom u are,hw about positive change?pple change frm their bad ways and become good.@Op what kind of husbsand do u expect 2 find in a night club?
baby_123: Take your time. You can meet the one any where. Just be open minded. Also, husband will not come and meet you in your house. I know couples that like to drink together. They could have met at a beer parlor. Who knows. grin. Keep being who you are, the man that will appreciate you will, for who you are. And it is better that way. As you dont want to pretend and marry someone who will make you miserable.
