Can You Marry Someone Who Was Introduced To You By Another Person?My Experience. by 7victor(m): 2:34pm On Oct 02, 2021
My experience is this:

One Igbo woman saw me and asked to know whether I was married or not.

I answered in the negative.

She said as a lecturer, what is keeping me from marrying since federal government is paying us well?

I told her I am praying to God about it.


She said she is a pastor and she believed God was prompting her to find me a wife.


She said she would introduce me to a very good lady whom I would really enjoy as wife.

It was not quite 3 hours later when she sent someone to call me to see the lady.




To my utter astonishment, she introduced me to one elderly woman who is from Kaduna.



It was as much as I could do not to show my astonishment.



After the old woman left, I told her I would prefer someone younger who is Igbo.


She said age doesn't matter in marriage.


I told her I am in my early thirties and how can I even marry someone who is 40, let alone someone who is above 50?


It is my idea that the woman she introduced to me is her long time friend and age mate. She herself(ie the woman who introduced someone) has big children who are all in the University and polytechnic.


She insisted that love, and not age, is what matters in matter.


As for marrying an Igbo woman, she said no Igbo woman will ever condescend so low as to marry a Calabar man.


She said she is an Igbo woman so she knows her tribe very well.


I made her understand that my cousin is Calabar and is married to an Igbo beauty queen.

I mentioned up to 6 Calabar men I personally know who are married to Igbo.



She said an Igbo lady can only marry a Calabar man if maybe she has a problem(like mental problem) which makes people to reject her,


to the extent that it is only a Calabar man that she would finally condescend to marry.


She was just insulting my tribe.


I told her that the former governor of Akwa Ibom, and the present minister of Niger Delta is a Calabar man married to Igbo woman.

[Modified: Please note that people call those from Akwa Ibom and Cross river "Calabar". That is my observation.]


My idea now is that I can never accept any woman brought by this woman,


because she will never give me something good. Any woman she brings must be low because she believes that low women fit Calabar men.


She said if I don't like that other Kaduna woman, she would introduce me to another woman.


But I know on a high state of conviction that she will not bring someone good to me because of the way she looks down on my tribe.


She doesn't believe my tribe can marry someone better.

At a certain point, she became angry over what she believed was my "inability to understand divine agenda".


Everything the woman said to me was the most totally debasing thing someone has ever said to me,



although it was certainly evident that she said those things to make me feel so unworthy to the extent of agreeing to marry the old woman from Kaduna.


The truth in the matter is that even she herself did not believe what she was saying.


I told her that before today, I had the opportunity and agency to have married an Igbo lady.



But the only downside was the distance.


She is a government employee also and it won't be reasonable for her to resign, leave her state and come to the North where I base.


I remember another Igbo girl in Sokoto who, before she later got married, was urging me to go see her parents,


but then, I was only a private school teacher who was also running a masters program.


I didn't have money for such.

You are in for manipulation, bro run for your life.
In marriage there is nothing like referral, it is a matter of choice. By the time the heat begins she won't he there.
Avoid that woman by every means.
What you should be doing now is going on single dates and group dating, with that you will have opportunities to interact with younger ladies and will be able to make your choice.

When did Senator Godswill Akpabio become a Calabar man?
Essien Udim in Akwa Ibom sounds like Calabar to you??
Please next time do the right thing and stop dragging people that are not from your tribe into it.

They call people from Akwa Ibom and Cross river "Calabar people"

At least that is what other tribes call us.

Akwa Ibomites = Akwa Ibom

Cross Riverians = Cross River (where Calabar is).

The Europeans used to refer to the black race as monkeys. Would you prefer being called that because "that's what other tribes call you" no offense

I always do well to correct people when they make that mistake no matter how trivial it may seems. You never know what might happen tomorrow and something that was meant to go to Akwa Ibom gets channeled to Cross River and the reason might be "sheybi they are all Calabar people"

Oga, give boys this link lol. Before my dad died, the only condition I put him when he’s lamenting of me been single is that if he can introduce a lady that’s doing better than me.

That’s the only condition I can consider whenever someone say he/she is introducing a lady to me.

Had it been you married that woman, your thread today would have been about challenges you are facing in the marriage.

I'm happy for you, man.

Marriage is not what anyone should just jump into irrespective of the age. Stay smart!
