seizethaBae:My sister, having gone through your feelings over this subject, I felt for you. I would wanna let you understand that you are a perfect person and nothing wrong with your present state. You took the right decision not to have gone into the above relationship no matter what. If you had gone into it, by now, you would have ended up regretting that action. For now, nothing is wrong with you.As an introvert then when you went into the above relationship for about 3yrs, it affected your person, hence the chances of getting into another relationship and building it up, has become a problem. It's like having your past hunting your present. There are lots of responsible and God fearing guys out there.Look within the environment were you work ( Not same office though), your area of worship, good mall on a weekend, laundering outlets or good parks on a weekend, you can be lucky to come across a good guy that you can develop interest on. With God, all things are possible. Delay is not denial. At 27, you are not too old. I hate guys who don't wanna understand the importance of neatness. Most guys do not know the importance of having their toiletries in place. Some guys would take their bath without putting on their role on deodorant. They just spray their body cologne and off they go. I would wanna tell you that the environment you stay or where you find yourself could attribute to your present state. Take a week off to a neutral place and maybe God might end up connecting you with a nice guy and you can now check him out to know if that's what you want. Good luck and stop thinking negatively. God is with you. |

5. Good Christian men know their worth too and don’t want to settle either: Yea ladies…men are understanding their worth a bit more too.Christian men are getting more and more comfortable attending relationship seminars and getting information about seeking God’s face for a wife. They are realizing how powerful of an impact a wife has on the outcome of their lives and ministry, and they are spending more time trying to see what is beneath the surface. They know that a woman can make or break everything. They realize that a woman’s desires can accelerate him towards purpose or derail him. They are praying more and they are realizing that while you still remain a prize, they too are precious in God’s eyes and want to do right by him. They are realizing that a wife can make or break a man. Yes they are praying for a Ruth but they are also praying against Delilah as well. The Boaz, David or Joseph kind of man knows his worth too. 6. Many Christian ladies have no testimony with men: A few years ago, an older friend (a number of years older than me) came up to me after a church program and asked me about a lady in my church. Who she was and what she was like as a person. I didn’t stop talking for minutes. They were married about a year later. Same thing happened to Ruth. (Ruth Chapter 2 from Vs 3) Boaz came back from a trip, saw Ruth and asked his Foreman “Who is that and who does she belong to”, to which the foreman answered and gave a fantastic testimony of her character. (See Boaz’s response in Vs 11) Here is a secret ladies, you know how you like a guy and try to keep it to yourself until your girlfriends force a confession out of you? We guys don’t do that. The moment we think we are interested in you, we are telling someone and we are asking around about you….and we are asking our MALE friends/mentors. Because we know they will tell us like it is and of course won’t spread it all around church and make things suddenly awkward or cause all the sisters to start giving the dirty eye next Sunday. Bro code. The truth is that even Christian ladies can be toxic sometimes when it comes to how they treat men who they don’t consider a prospect. You forget that when the real prospect comes and is interested in you, he will ask other men…some who may never have approached you but who have watched you from afar, and yes some who may have had an interest in you but you didn’t like. How did you handle those situations? (You totally need to read that article link above…especially the 2nd part of that series) The Boaz, David or Joseph kind of man looks deeper than the surface beauty. They look for testimonies of the woman’s character 7. Many Christian women want a Proverbs 31 Man: That’s not a typo. Pick up your Bible and read Proverbs 31 again with fresh eyes… from the perspective of the character of that woman…and you will see that those qualities are the ones that many women are looking for in a man when they should be busy developing those qualities themselves. Single Christian men are reading that passage looking for those qualities in a woman, and women are putting that passage down and instead looking for those qualities in a man. The Boaz, David or Joseph Kind of man has read Proverbs 31 and wants her. 8. Many Christian ladies want to be married but they are not truly ready to be led: They want to marry a boyfriend but not a husband. They want only a partner but not a leader. They want an emotional prenup that things will always be 50:50. They say they will concede authority to God himself but in their heart, they are not willing to be led by his representative in the home. What I am about to say next I say with the utmost respect to women. Men were created to lead at home. Now, with that leadership comes accountability to God meaning that God holds him accountable and will punish him first for bad leadership. But a man cannot be accountable for a woman he can’t lead….and a Christian man does not want to be over anything he can’t be accountable to God about. The Boaz, David or Joseph kind of man is a great servant leader like Jesus Christ…but he is a born leader and he knows it 9. Many young married Christian women are painting a fairytale picture of marriage to their single ladies Many young married women are doing a major disservice to single women. These young married women create a fairytale picture of weddings and marriage to their single friends. They love being the center of attention and talk up how dreamy it is. Perfect Instagram photos, perfect wedding photos, expensive glamorous weddings, perfect Facebook updates, photos and so on. Is there anything wrong with that? No. It would just help a lot more when married young women keep it real with their sisters and tell them that the wedding day does not make the marriage. It would help a whole lot more if they sit their single friends down and talk about the importance of a praying wife, a strong wife, a submissive wife (to a Godly man) and how contrary to popular opinion, the faith of a wife is both a weapon for the family and its defense as well. Instead, they get their single sisters all dreamy eyed and waiting for a perfect story and a perfect man… waiting for KalEl from planet Krypton with the big “S” on his chest and a red cape, when they should look at Clark Kent from Planet earth. The Boaz, David or Joseph kind of man knows that the wedding is not the marriage and doesn’t want to create an impression he can’t maintain. Sisters, God has a beautiful story of love written for you. Am I saying settle? No way. But I am saying look at these men through the eyes of Christ. Get your pride out of the way. Don’t define your marital success by how well your wedding day or “lifestyle” stacks up with other women. Most importantly, start seeing yourself as a true (not just perceived) gift from God that can bring God’s favor and blessings into your husband’s life because that’s what you are. So work to BECOME that and I truly truly wish you a love-filled, Christ centered happy marriage when it does happen. You can add me up on whatsapp @ 09095009511 or email me @ martinenui461@gmail.com if you find it difficult to understand what I ve said or still having more issue contact me,and again invite me on your wedding day coze I know it coming soon.have a good nyt. |

seizethaBae:Hi 27 is not old. Marriage is not a bed of roses....you want the fairytale the reality is different. To meet intelligent guys you need to be in the right place. Also your intelligent guy, could be known to you already. Lust fades.....you must have other things to talk about. Intelligence sometimes doesn't have a lot of letters after their name. Open yourself up |

OnyeIbo: seriously bro, I wanted her to fully refine herself before looking for intelligent guys. For example, I also wanted an intelligent girl so I knew I needed to improve my IQ. Also I wouldn't want a girl with big tummy so I ate boiled fish, boiled chicken without the skin, steamed lettuce and spinach, and coconut oil-made omelette every day in order to maintain a flat tummy. I still don't eat rice, beans, yam, and other starchy foods.Most often than not, humans expect what they can't give. There's more to life than that jare. |

seizethaBae:Try to love those who loves you,Its better to be loved by a man.He will be willing to do anything for you.We women we re emotional,and most times we can't really get the kind of man we dream of,but out of a nonsense God can make a sense.Give those men u say u gat no feelings for a chance and you might see the Treasure you are about to lose. |

| Re: Will I Ever Get Married? by Seun(mod): 10:57pm On Oct 03, 2016 |
It's not about being choosy; its far better to be choosy and marry the right person. You probably aren't looking in the right places. Be tactical. |

After reading all ur writeup, I still have questions to ask? What do u actually want? Let me start from my own point I was once a womaniser then people wia like I can't marry or get a good wife but when the time comes (never said the right time)if the time comes lady u will get married ,to my own best of knowledge ur still looking around for a particular choice of a man not ready yet to settle down. When ur ready he is fat or slim or educated won't be the question rather this is what I want. He has a good heart,he love me so much and so on. Honestly speaking my wife happens to be a blessing to me but I never dated a lady like her before in size, I met her and propose to her just because am ready to marry. Marraige has no rule is just all about u and him. Most people telling u what to do have u asked urself or check if the person is happily married cos a single guy can't just tell me things about marriage Yes sweet and bitter but when ur ready and needed to u will overcome the bitterness and make it sweet ,who is perfect? To some people ur just a mere lady with ur level of education while some will value u, my point is this when ur ready to marry make up ur mind and do so. Work on urself ok think twice. |

Please try and marry one of those guys that you don't like because with time you will grow to love him. |

Alot of women are not happy in their marriages. Most women are living in regrets especially some that got married at a very early age. Live ur life my dear and pray that God shows U d way and also direct ur partner to locate U. |

seizethaBae Love is a choice not a feeling. Likeness is a feeling. And even at that love is not enough for marriage. Look for an intelligent,responsible and God fearing man as you said. However have it in mind that there is no perfect guy out there. Pls watch the movie ' The Perfect Guy' it's a 2015 black American movie. |
