Especially when people walk up to you and say 'don't worry, it's your turn next'
Bitch, did I tell you I was worried? What's with the 'emotional talk'?
OK, maybe I needed the talk...it's not the easiest thing to experience.
Oh well, they say it's my turn next...we shall see :-)
Happy Sunday everyone
Have a fab week ahead!
Oh, and happy married life to my beautiful sis, Edna, and her new husband, Nnaemeka Ndukwu.
Will bring you pictures in a bit...!
Now, let's wait for the comments...lol
linda dont mind them jare ,its your turn but not now;i am still in school but you got to wait for me.its you or no one else...secretly admiring you!!!!!
ReplyDeletei just love your gut;see the way you use mouth comot yourself for the depression wey they wan cause for you.its when the man comes that is your turn;not when a junior sister is marrying.
ReplyDeleteu haven't found mr right. ur sister has. no big deal. i just think u shud employ tactics used by ur sisters (i know two of them r married) and maybe you'll find yours...u r not ugly...u r more beautiful than your sisters but marriage and love is more than physical beauty. u shud prob ask ur sisters for advice.maybe?
ReplyDeleteIt's not a competition Linda, so carry eye go market and know that..not all that gliter be gold. I will bake you ur wedding cake free when u bring home a man to mama. lol
ReplyDeleteLinda dearest, comply all the list of male celebrities that are single, then do a reality show.. Name suggestion anyone?
ReplyDeleteJust a joke dear.. u are a pretty girl, and am sure men might just be intimidated by ur swagger (lol). The year is not over yet, so there is a chance of a wedding bell in the air.
All d best
Congrtas to your sis!
ReplyDeleteIt is normal, in my opinion to feel a little depressed, it doen't mean you wish your sister evil. That's just how you feel!
Just a simple question people. Is it a must that we should all marry?
ReplyDeleteIt's just a question oh!
Linda love, what type of guy or guys do u like or tend to go for?
Waiting for your response Linda.
Linda how can your sister's wedding be depressing???? if it was that depressing why were u annoyed that people were consoling you? abi what do you want us to say? seriously, if "not being married" is your biggest challenge then you need to wake up and set better goals. *rolls eyes
ReplyDeleteyeah dear I feel u, some so called emotional talks and prayers could be fraustrating .I experienced it wen i couldnt ave a child for over ten years of marriage,,,,,,,UNTIL I MADE UP MY MIND DAT ITS MY LIFE NOBODY CAN TELL ME HOW IT SHD BE PROGRAMMED ,I COULDNT MOVE FORWARD....NOTHING DO U LINDA ITS UR LIFE........MUAHHHHHHHH... KK
ReplyDeleteCongratulations.
ReplyDeleteLinda,i'm a bachelor o,lol.
ReplyDeleteI dont have much to say than to say Is ur turn next. Am still single still needs someone like u by myside. Not kiddin.
ReplyDeleteLinda!!! Couldn't help but laugh aloud...Don't mind them jare... Not how fast but how well...Congrats to your sis...Great week dearie!
ReplyDeleteLinda!!! Couldn't help but laugh aloud...Don't mind them jare... Not how fast but how well...Congrats to your sis...Great week dearie!
ReplyDeleteWell, when u say it was depressing to be at ur younger sister's wedding, u know pple are going to pick on that. I understand the pressure to get married in Nigeria sha! When it's time for u to get married, u will get married. No need to rush in and rush out. Take ur time and find the right person for you.
ReplyDeleteIs this your immediate younger sister? u seem to have a lot of sisters..how old is she? happy for her..ur turn will be next...u have the exposure, and seem kind of sensible..pray for the right man..not any loser on the streets..
ReplyDeletedon't mind nigerian women who think that an unmarried woman is equivalent to an unhappy woman. It is true it is difficult to watch especially because its your baby sis that just walked down the aisle but that doesn't mean that you are jealous or unhappy or any of those things they've convinced themselves that you are.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR SISTER.
and my dear you marry when the time is right for you. you being next or not doesn't matter. what matters is that when you do find that man you are happy with him and glad his yours.
oh sweets i never worry about u cos urs is going to happen in grand style so...
ReplyDeletenow u know what i am actually worried about? that YOU served us this gist only after it happened. actually im not worried, it only goes to say that you know when to keep things that ought to be secret secret. kudos darl. I LOVE YOU.
and congrats to edna too. she must rock, with a fab sister like u... :))
It can be annoying o jare! Whats that? A family friend finally got married today, the bobo came to do one small something sha and i just didn't have a moment of peace. Shoo! Being single is bodering on being a taboo these days.
ReplyDeleteHey Lady,God's time is the best they say and like they say also,"it is better to be late than be late",so,no matter what be it earlier or later,the most important is getting your own and having your own is asking God,so,continue to ask Him and again let me chip this into your mind,"God is not yet ready to share you with another"!
ReplyDeleteWishing your sister all of marital bliss and when God is ready for you,you will be a testimony to others,just keep it fixed on God and He will never disappoint you!
Happy Sunday!
Linda, u dont have to ever get worried! Dont mind them... people sure knows how to make u feel down when u dont want to. Keep moving girl... I lov ur carriage!
ReplyDeletewow...that's good news.
ReplyDeletewhich of them?
Sandra or Laura???
People should learn how not to cry more than the bereaved...lol
ReplyDeleteMost men are blind and stupid, Linda. You need one of the few that aren't. He'll come he just has a large crowd to wade through. Hang in there, you are doing very well.
ReplyDeletehmm linda, when you talk say "so depressing", i bin tink say na because say you go miss your baby sister, ah no know say na because of some ppl wey no like mind dem business. please pay such people no mind. i would have expected more gist on the wedding itself, not these marriage mongers
ReplyDelete-ugo
lol@Bitch did i tell you i was worried hahaha ..aww Congrats to your sis don't mind them Ms Linda God's time is the best:)
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, happens to some of us but its a great feeling if you celebrate it rather ponder on what not.. Your time will come.. or rather, our time will. Lol. Thats for those of us whose younger sibbling(s) are married b4 us. Lots of love from here.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, happens to some of us but its a great feeling if you celebrate it rather than ponder on what not.. Your time will come.. or rather, our time will. Lol. Thats for those of us whose younger sibbling(s) are married b4 us. Lots of love from here.
ReplyDeleteHun, they should all go and play in traffic (:-p during rush hour). You will marry when you are good and ready. It is not a crime for your little sis to marry before you. Na crime again, make everybody hold themselves. I actually applaud your parents for being open minded and letting the one who found love first marry. Linda because you celebrated your sister, You will be celebrated soon.
ReplyDeletedon't mind any body or group of people that says such thing 'don't worry, it's your turn next' i think it was irrelevant. nobody is God and his time best time for us in any thing we do as well. But My dear linda, to be honest, you are so beautiful. i would be the happiest man on earth if you can accept to be my life companion...plz don't get wrong. remain bless
ReplyDeletewow. seriously your younger sister?! congras to her o. so linda r u the only one remainin to get married? lol
ReplyDeletehaha...linda dear..all i can say too is it would be ur turn next,take ur time cos marriage isnt something u just rush into cos its for better for worse..Happy married life to ur sister.
ReplyDeleteI kinda understand you jare. i dont have a sister, but most of my friends are married. All my relatives are just acting like wow!!!! ur time is running out.
ReplyDeleteIf i do anything nice for my yoruba aunties, then thier next prayer for me is: 'you must marry this year in Jesus name'. and of course if i show up at any family wedding, what i hear is 'Dont worry, your turn would soon come' and they say it with this very pitiful look on thier face........
Expecting the pictures girl!
dont worry. its ur turn next ;)
ReplyDeleteWay to go girl!!! I never belong to the school of "Saying I do"
ReplyDelete..........but sure belong to the school of "baby mama and baby papa".

linda dearie, i don't think you are ready for marriage. i know of at least two men you have turned down. one of them i introduced to you. you know who this is? so pls stop with the charade
ReplyDeletecongrats to Edna
you seem to have a lot of sisters...
ReplyDeleteCongrats and happy married life to the couple.
Yours is on the way. Cheers
Yung lady, its easy for all to feel they knw the right words 2 tell yu...'don't worrry its yur turn next' but really... if getting married is what you want.. yu need to make an extra effort at it and i'll suggest you don't put out your innermost joys/pains 4 d public...we are just going to av fun with it..
ReplyDeleteLike i said, if yu want it, go get it... a confident achiever like you wont av d good guys rushing 2 yur door... yu might just need to stay outside and wave us down,lol
Do av a great tyme & well done girl
Dear Linda, I can help. Yes, I can. I'm bidding my time to make a move on you. Worry not. It will be your turn next. Soon you'd say "I do" to SD, but your folks have to reduce the $1 trillion asking price - dowry, etc. Really. I spoke to your people, but, I will wait for the next 18 months' January Sales and make a final offer or wait for auction, then make a bid. What do you think, my Linda? The older you are, the cheaper I will get you. Ps, Linda, just to let you know now, I may, also, marry a few 18 year olds, but, you will always be my first wife.
ReplyDeleteI'm joking oooooohh :)
Linda the next time any old woman or man disturbs you about being 'next' you know what?? DO THE SAME THING TO THEM AT FUNERALS.....
ReplyDeleteHoney, forget the rest; I'm the best: I'm Mr Right, pick me :)
ReplyDeletewell ppl had all spoken and ppl will still speaks more but all i just need you to do for me is to give me a call if you can get this message on 08099619652 or send e-mail to awesome_emmanuel@yahoo.com.
ReplyDeleteLind!if you so desire for a wedding bell, this is your time if you believe. before March 2011. you will invite me again to come and grace wedding occation to the Glory of God Almighty... its going to be colorful
I am a marriage/single counselor.
We need to seated one-on-one with a some vital informations that can assist both of us.

AND GOD CREATED THEM BOTH MALE AND FEMALE,,,,,,,,, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE,,,,,,,, AND GOD COMMANDED BLESSINGS UPON THEM SAYING BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY REPLENISHED AND SUBDUE THE EARTH. SO GOD BLESS THEM
LINDS I BELIEVE YOUR OWN ADAM WILL SOON LOCATES YOU AND CALL YOU ADORNING NAME.
DON'T WORRY JUST BELIEVE IN GOD!
if u(linda) dey wait 4 oyibo(african american), u go wait till thy kingdom come.
ReplyDeleteif u(linda) dey wait 4 oyibo(african american), u go wait till thy kingdom come.
ReplyDeleteWow! if its d same Nnaemeka ndukwu i knw then its such a small world...cos my family bak home went to the wedding on saturday as we are related.pls upload pics asap....
ReplyDeleteTotally love your honesty!
ReplyDeleteIt is fresh and clean!
Enjoy your single days dearie...in not time at all, you'll be hitched!
Lol...yeah i have to jump on the don't mind them bandwagon. A female colleague is 39 and still single and guess what? her 2 younger sisters 25years and 27 years of age got married the same year...needless to say the aunty almost jumped into the lagon the day of those aburos wedding when folks just dey remind her, your are next IJN....people just need to learn to shut the fuck up..its not a bad etiquette afterall :)
ReplyDeletelinda ur taste is too high,lower it and u'll get married soon.goodluck..
ReplyDeleteLinda, you should not be surprised about the way they were praying for you. It is a normal thing. They are only showing their concerns for your 'agony' or 'plight'. They did not mean to depress you. Nigerians are known to be their brothers keepers.
ReplyDeleteDont mind them jare, its when they say it that u actually start thinking of ur life.
ReplyDeleteabeg dont let those sorry ass comments get to you.i know it aint sha.
please ignore them, some of my younger ones have children but we are still trusting God for some. everybody who wants to practice theology uses us as a test case to show how much of spiritual "power" they carry. very annoying especially when you know there is nothing wrong with the two of you and medically it has been proved. they make you feel like its your fault. just assume you didnt hear them well.
ReplyDeleteThe anuahia shouting baby mama and daddy should gerrout. Don't be promoting trash biko. It is not a lifestyle that you enter into willingly o just incase you don't know.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, Linda babe. Make everybody siddon, you will marry when it is your time. Whether its end of year or end of the decade.
Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Ndukwu.
ReplyDeleteTo Linda, next time will be your turn even this year. I am praying for you, you never can tell.
linda , pls dont get me wrong cause honestly , i mean well , but really are you being honest with yourself about why youre not married yet?
ReplyDeletecause you cant tell me with how beautiful smart and nice you are , that men havent come up to you.
could it be that youre waiting for the perfect man to ride in on his gold plated ferrari ?
loll, jokes jokes , but you get what i mean
ROFLMAO. Nne, nothing do you. To hell with them all. Ain't nothing as sad as getting married for the rest of your life to the wrong person.
ReplyDeleteIf love and marriage na your portion for this life, them go come at the RIGHT TIME!
that feeling? i know it well. it is well with you and i pray God fulfils his good and perfect will for ya but u gotta have realistic expectations too o! Happy Married Life to your sister
ReplyDeleteI've realised a few unbiased facts since getting married. Hope they're food for thought:
ReplyDelete1) Being happy is YOUR decision. No man will fulfill your fantasies - yes especially those ones!
2) Being at peace with the Lord and living in full accordance with his will gives the greatest sense of liberty one can have
3)There will always be demands on you - after you get married, they'll start hounding your for babies. Yep!
4)Absolutely no man (naija or oyibo) wants his private matters in public. So if you're an intensely social/public person (especially on cyberspace), you'll almost definitely scare a good man away
5)Singlehood is not a bad state - it's a wonderful time to enjoy the bliss of no-stinky-nappies and the ability to sleep in on Saturdays
Try go marry o
ReplyDeleteLinda, first and foremost a big congratulations to your sister, Edna on finding her mate and taking those vows before God and man. May her marriage be blessed, her children be blessed, her home be blesses, her finances be blessed, her health be blessed in Jesus name, amen!!!
ReplyDeleteSecondly, Remember, the patient dog eats the fattest bone. Be happy for those around you that have attained their dreams, God will bring your own in His own good time. Don't let people stir up in you the spirit of envy, jealousy, malice, bitterness, resentment, depression etc because all those things are blessing blockers, my dear. You have achieved more than most of those instigating people have ever dreamed of achieving in their lives, some of them, their biggest accomplishment as been that their marriage and some knuckle headed children that they don't even hug or kiss or spend time with in a day so I beg you, just live your life because though the grass is greener on the other side, it still has to be mowed!
I have been where you are, I am the second oldest of the girl cousins in my family and I had watched all my cousins get married with the exception of the baby who is 19. I have watched friends get married and some of those friends rubbed their marriages in my face thinking that they were better than me having escaped the dusty single shelf, did it hurt? Sure, but though it hurts, I never let bitterness creep into my heart, I used that time to INVEST in myself, to BETTER myself, to GET TO KNOW ME BETTER, I was never lacking in things to do, I hung out with my friends as well as solo, I travelled, I kept up with my family ongoings, I continued to pray and thank God for his mercies in my life, I thanked him for my husband, my children and my marriage as though I was already set in that situation. I thanked for my fabulous career, my financial independence, my health etc.
At 34, I met my lovely husband, we got engaged within 7 months, we got married a year to the day we met. God answers prayers.
You are just fine, mama and you will CONTINUE to be just fine!
Do i smell jealousy Linda ! step ur game up and find a bobo that would complete u and be to bone of bone and flesh of flesh!!!!! And stop all this crap about u don’t need a man u can do shit on your own
