A Nigerian woman has taken to social media to share her painful experience in the dating world, revealing how men lose interest the moment they discover she has a child.
In an emotional video that has since gone viral, the woman tearfully described a recurring pattern in her love life: conversations start well, connections seem promising, but everything falls apart once she opens up about being a single mother.
“As soon as they find out I have a child, they disappear. Just like that,” she said, visibly distressed.
She explained that the repeated rejections have left her exhausted and questioning whether she will ever find someone willing to accept her fully.
While she understands that not everyone is ready for the responsibility of dating a parent, the constant rejection has taken a toll on her emotionally.
“I’m tired. I feel like giving up,” she admitted.
In her message, she appealed to society to look beyond stereotypes and see single mothers as people deserving of love and respect, just like anyone else.
Her story has sparked a wave of reactions. Some have offered words of encouragement, urging her to stay hopeful.
Others, however, defended men’s right to choose relationships that align with their preferences.
Either way, her pain is real, and it’s a reminder that for many single parents, the search for love comes with extra weight.
