A 46-year-old Nigerian woman has opened up in a deeply emotional interview, shedding light on the silent struggles faced by many single women who are aging without companionship or support. Speaking anonymously on Agidigbo FM, the woman made a passionate public appeal for a husband, describing years of emotional pain, loneliness and social stigma.
She spoke with a mixture of boldness and vulnerability, revealing that she is still a virgin at 46. Her admission was not made to invite mockery or pity but rather to underscore the extent of her isolation and the seriousness of her plea. “If there’s anything you can use to test me, you can do it,” she declared, voicing both her frustration and her desire to be heard and taken seriously.
Her life has not been marked by laziness or dependence. She explained that she has always worked hard, even from a young age. At one point, she was financially stable and independent, yet her fortunes took a downturn, leaving her with little to show for years of effort. Despite her strength and industriousness, love and companionship have remained elusive.
Rejection has become a routine part of her reality. According to her, men either see her as too old to be in a relationship or approach her only for fleeting physical satisfaction. “I’m not the one pushing men away. Those who approach me either see me as too old or only want intimacy,” she said, her voice filled with a mixture of sadness and bewilderment.
Selling goods has been her primary occupation, and although she is often out in public, she doesn’t chase after male attention. She insisted that she lives a reserved life, one marked by modesty and decency. Still, her self-restraint and moral values seem to work against her in a society that increasingly prizes flash over substance.
Adding to her emotional burden is the ridicule she faces from children in her community. She recounted how kids often call her “grandma,” a label that cuts deep and constantly reminds her of the passing years and society’s harsh standards. “Three years ago, I discovered that men see me as an aged woman. When children see me, they call me grandma,” she lamented.
Family life, which should have offered her comfort, seems equally complicated. She is not an only child, yet she remains the only one still living with her mother. According to her, all her siblings are also facing personal struggles. The lack of progress, love, and stability in her life has led her to consider that her challenges may have a spiritual origin.
Her search for answers has led her to religious mountains for prayer. She recalled one particularly significant session where it was revealed to her that a spiritual veil had been placed over her. According to the revelation, this veil was blocking her blessings, preventing not only marital opportunities but also overall help from reaching her.
“During one of the prayer sessions, I was told a veil had been used to cover me and had not allowed me to receive help. Only married men approached me. And they only want s3x,” she explained. Her words were not just a cry for help but also a wake-up call to a society that often turns a blind eye to the unseen emotional burdens carried by women like her.
As she wrapped up her heartfelt interview, it was clear that her appeal went far beyond seeking a partner. It was about reclaiming her identity, her dignity, and her hope for a better future. She is not just asking for love; she is asking to be seen, valued, and accepted.
This story serves as a reflection of many silent voices across Nigeria and beyond. Women who, despite their efforts to live responsibly and with dignity, find themselves shut out of the emotional and social fulfillment that partnerships can bring. Her courage in sharing her truth publicly might be the spark that ignites a broader conversation on the hidden struggles of aging single women, societal perceptions of worth, and the need for compassion in our communities.
