See Why I am Still Single - Yvonne Nelson

Oh dear! I have heard successful single ladies say this a million and one times, now Yvonne Nelson? God needs to step into their boats! While speaking on KSM’s Show on Metro TV, Yvonne says she wants to get married, she wants to be in a relationship, but confessed that both Nigerian and Ghanaian men of her age are scared about her success, they are intimidated and that is where the problem LIES.

Here's what she said on the show;

“This year I’m a secondary virgin I’m just trying to concentrate on my career. I’m not in a rush; I don’t want to marry today and divorce tomorrow because it happens a lot in the industry. Marriage is a beautiful thing but it has to be right. I don’t want to let my mom down, I want to make her and myself happy. Most Ghanaian and Nigerian men are intimidated; most often when it’s age appropriate; then they think I’m doing better than them and that I’m going to be bossy and control them around. Those around my age are bothered that I’m an independent lady. That has always been the problem”

“There was about two guys who got scared. But I really don’t mind. Middle of last year, I was trying out something and I wasn’t convinced so I backed off. It had to do with the man not being matured enough” she explained.

She however described her dream man to be...

“The person has to be age appropriate – a five year gap is okay. But I don’t want someone too old because when that happens, you can’t hold a conversation with such a person”.
