I feel ashamed and embarrassed. I know some people would want to nail me after reading just the headline but I feel this is getting out of hand. I clocked 42 last July and to be candid I’m not into any serious relationship. I’m from South-South Nigeria, the first daughter out of 7 children. I hope you won't feel offended as I would not further disclose my identity for obvious reason. Just last year, our last born who works with a popular telecommunication company got married to her longtime boyfriend, leaving only me hugging ‘tubes and tyres.’ I’ve gone for prayers in several churches; they promised me that my husband would appear in no distant time. In fact, the last prayer house I went in a popular church, the man of God told me that ‘if he be a man of God, before the year runs out, my dream man would appear.’ Another one told me I was the architect of my predicament, saying that I’ve missed the opportunity. When I was in my mid 20s, I had many ‘toasters’ but they were never my dream men. I used to think my kind of guy was the tall, dark and handsome one. Preferably banker, but now they are not forthcoming. I was in a relationship with an ex footballer but I dumped him when I could no longer cope with his kind of person.. Now, I’m even ashamed of living in the same house with my parents at my age...

Please advise...

Many people have missed a golden opportunity of a life time,Especially when it comes to relationship matters... Many ladies have treated their future husband with disdain & have treated them ungodly .... No man is perfect. & Dream man or Dream Woman only exist in the movies,You have to make your partner the person yu want him/her to be /.... In your own case,Be prayerful & trust in God for HE is God That Turns Impossibilities To Possibilities ..... Salam..
