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. I have a good job and travel to the UK often but still haven't met any man that's prepared for marriage. 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.


Am available, if your serious. Thats my pic below(remember that love aint about number)

berem: Even if you have the money to rent an apartment, please don't! I won't advise you to do that. It tells a lot when a well to do lady like you live alone. Some men will not be comfortable with it and some gigolos will come knocking at your door. Remain in your father's house till you get married even if others are getting married . Your turn will surely come.
good advice...coming 4rm one lady to another.

@ OP
REASON: There is a high tendency that ladies who rent personal appartment (even in school) falls deep into the temptation of a life ruining immorality that becomes a stigma to any1 who intends to marry them

It is always honorable when u leave your father's house directly to your husband's house...any house rented in between can be termed as an ashawo house by pple esspecially your prospective inlaws who might discourage your fiance from settling wit u. undecided cool

Dont be desperate..Marriage is about love & hapiness.

I as a man will neva marry any woman who will not be commited to our relationship because she feels Iam unsettled (poor) undecided

Accept a RESPONSIBLE man (not because they are FINE rich happening party guys in town Oo) when he has nuffin and when he is made he will acknowledge & regard u 4 eva

Humble yourself. Bless

Re: Update; I Am 31 And getting married soon by showietee: 6:09pm On May 12, 2013
Age is but a number. God knows the unseen, that you're not married for now may be the best thing for you. No late comer in it. Don't imitate people. My simple question is- are you really ready?
Your kinda spouse could determine your offspring. Clubbing and drinking! Spouse wit such attitude could have offspring wit such attitude. Do you want that?

After marriage problems are more cumbersome than be4 marriage problems. Did you know when you're destined to start having kids? What if you're married today and you're destined to start having kids in 7years time, what could be more disturbing than that in this part of the world?
Think twice and get prepared for it's not a joke. Peace!

maclatunji: The OP has a sense of humour. I could not help but laugh at the way she writes. It has a comic feel to it.

My advice is not to be desperate. Keep your eyes open so that you do not fall for the wrong man. Being single is not a problem, being in a bad marriage is.

I am sure you have started receiving Nairaland suitors with this thread. Beware of emotional fraudsters.

Sure enough. I said something close earlier. Anything is possible.


OP. Beware of fraudsters most importantly.

Re: Update; I Am 31 And getting married soon by hafeesa: 6:27pm On May 12, 2013
In other countries, this may not be a big deal but we have to be realistic, our society puts a lot of pressure on women once they clock 30 and are still single so I understand your frustration.
However, I have to say if you allow desperation to conquer common sense, you'll end up with a marriage you'll end up regretting for the rest of your life.

Secondly, travelling frequently to the UK is not a criteria. Many uneducated, rude and ill-mannered people do too so you might want to leave that out of an introductory statement to a real contender.

Thirdly, I'm not really feeling the '31 and still living with my parents' thing. What if you meet a guy and he wants to come over for lunch or dinner or you want to show off your cooking skills or something? I don't know about you guys but I don't think the 'meet the family' routine should happen early in a relationship. Frankly, I don't think it should happen at all until you're absolutely certain you're on solid ground with a man. However, opinions tend to differ on the matter so. . .well, I'm sure you know best.

Also, are you absolutely sure you're not setting your standards too high? How flashy is your car? Do you dress in a flamboyant manner with the huge dark shades on? Do you wear too much make-up? I have a LOT of brothers and one opinion they all have in common; flashy girls = mistresses or playthings. This may seem shallow, personally I think it is shallow but first impressions really go a long way.if you have 28inches brazilian hair on, red painted long nails, long eyelashes and really flashy make up on, you'll have a guy calculating his account balance before walking up to you.
BUT, you may have simply been meeting the wrong guys. We can at least agree that there are many of them out there. You could be a wonderful woman who will make a good guy really happy someday. So please, don't get desperate. Look inwards, try to fix whatever you think could be working against you. Maintain a strong self confidence but never be arrogant. Know your true worth and don't settle for less. God will bring you the one that belongs to you. As yoruba people will say, o oni fe oko oloko. I wish you the very best. God bless.

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.
hmmm...i would never marry a girl i met in a night club or beer bar(unless shes taking soft drinks)
so happyness i advice u start attending a populous church,attend weekday programs be popular for the good reasons.U DONT WANNA BE KNOWN AS THE CLUB GIRL
attend weddings...volunteering meetings...and most of all be decent..avoid drunkeness .
Re: Update; I Am 31 And getting married soon by tabontabon: 6:32pm On May 12, 2013
A clubbing and night crawling lady is never considered a wife material.
Renting an apartment of your own will worsen your situation.
I can also opine from your post that you love latest and sexy fashion.No serious man wants to marry a woman that shows off her asset to the world.even,if a man does,the marriage is bound to be rocky.
Finally,be humble and reasonable about what kind of man you want.

Re: Update; I Am 31 And getting married soon by Nobody: 6:39pm On May 12, 2013
I guess you started this thread to attract a husband from Nairaland. The news is that there are a few genuine husbands here and your assignment will be to sift out the one. I mean ur email will be sumtin else since you mentioned a good job and travelling to u.k. You shld have been quiet there. Its always better to keep the best for the last...

A man or woman comes to like his partner for being humble to reserve his/her best qualities till late. Nevertheless, your thread is a smart step. Many people are in your shoes but wont speak up... My elder sis married at 31 and her first issue were set of twin boys. She really waited and prayed and i gave her much encouragement druing her travail. Guess what, it was her masters project supervisor that became the lucky man. Now her marriage is a bliss. At this time, she had no job nor husband and her younger one(me) had already spent yrs working. Right now just like you, she travels abroad often by virtue of her job, not even her hubbby's doing. Coming to you, what are the real issues with the guys approaching you for marriage

Go to church, fast and pray. Do not club. Even banker ladies who goto clubs find it hard to mingle. Coming to club with your psychaedelic and professional look will scare guys even if you stopped at drinking or going ahead to stomping on the dance floor. Guys in clubs go for call gilrs who give the one night entertainment and you have a different mission. Clubbing will be a waste of time for you. I guess you close from work on fridays and rush to club on suit. Hehehe...

So attend weddings(white and traditional) with your lady friends, naming ceremonies, visit parks and popular places on public holidays, then ''nairaland'' well well. Your husband is by the corner. For a lady of your status, please try humility and sometimes try being stupid. It works....
