I always hear about people finding their soul mates on dating sites and on social media networks, but I just laugh it off especially when it is Facebook. I always argue that a lover met through Facebook can only be a friend during school days and the relationship could progress into something else.
Granted, people find love on sites and even marry, mostly on dating sites, but it takes a process, meeting, knowing the person and then you pick it up from there, but not there and then. Are you talking marriage and on Facebook?
My question is, is it possible to just pick a ‘friend’, a Facebook friend for that matter, from random list of people and tell her you want to marry her?
Something interesting happened on Facebook last two days. I updated my Facebook status saying: ‘People should stop worshiping their pastors and worship God, because they are men and of God, but not God.” Some people commented asking me why I’m saying that, whilst others agreed with me.
A prophet sent me an email to ask if he can ‘talk’ to me. Initially, I thought it was about what I wrote on my timeline, I didn’t really find anything wrong with that anyway, but it turned out to be something different thing all together.
It started with the usual conversation of pleasantries et al. The questions started flowing and with my curious nature and always on the lookout for something to ‘yab’ (talk/write) about, I gave him my time and attention.
He asked where I live, how long I have lived there, my age and marital status. I went back to check his timeline photos, and he was quite a young guy, nothing prophetic about him (since the Holy Spirit cannot even tell him where I am, who I am….). The funny aspect of the whole thing is, he asked if my name is a female name?
I refused to tell him my age or marital status. I told him I had a child, but it did not even deter him. He quickly ‘adopted’ him there and then. Asked what I do for a living. For the fact that I refused to give him my number, he called some Ghana girls 419, and asked if I was for real.
The way he was expecting me to quickly give him my number, suggested one thing. He is always doing that, chatting people up on Facebook and proposing marriage.
What about if I was using someone else’s identity or my picture is even photo shopped? Mr Prophet did not even consider that.
From the way thing were going, Mr prophet was not going to give up. I have blocked a couple of guys from my friends list, but really is this how to go about getting a wife. Did the ‘holy spirit’ direct him my way or is he just that type?
Since this conversation, the ‘call me’ messages are still coming. Better watch out for the prophets who want to marry you instantly when they hit you up on Facebook.
What has your Facebook experience been in relation to men or women jumping unto you?
Check below for excerpts from our conversation (I have cleared off the full name of the Prophet, mine and his phone number)
Truthfully when things like that emerges, it dwindles ur trust in the so called men or even women of God.
Such occurred on several occasions but when u flip the coin n start preaching to them abt Jesus, they will leave u alone coz that was not their motive.
It’s shocking when some do inbox u and start with “Hey Sexy, can we talk?”. Or “Hi baby”, I quickly clear off my eyes to see if it’s for real.
It’s sad but it happens and we can’t stop them. If u ignore them they go for a next victim. Sad…….. Honestly some are real pastors but their deeds are evil

Every woman has respect and values. It’s your choice to indulge these people in extensive conversation or to do God’s service by sharing the truth n end the conversation. I guess as men and women of God, they should be preaching and spreading the good news about the coming of the Lord instead of surfing.
These men of God!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello writer, I just read your interesting piece with a smile on my face. I’m not smiling because I think it’s funny but the real reason behind my smile is because one of my female friend’s went through the same ordeal a couple of weeks ago. Thank God she confided in me otherwise she would have fallen for that charlatan that was posing as a celebrity. This so-called man of GOD you’re dealing with might not be an ordained prophet after all. As far as I’m concern, Any one can use any name on facebook. by the way, has it cross your mind that, he probably engaged you in a conversation to see if you gonna fall for him because of your facebook update?
HÈ THE SO CALLED PROPHET IS RATHER 419, NOT YOU. ” ATEMBUDA” WILL SURELY COME FOR PEOPLE LIKE HIM. ” I WANT TO HEAR YOUR SWEET VOICE””……………….SMH
On Facebook I dont think soo but in my email bunch of Nigerian fraudsters send me messages that ,they are cancer patient,their father is a wealthy man so they want redraw money into my account n bla bla bla
@27cдгibre(Ф_ф), totally agree I’m sure it’s a nigerian behind it
@Dr.miyagi, if not this Nigerats then who lol…
Well well well, I had one such encounter with a prophet too. And when I told him I had a boy friend, he told me point blank that he wasn’t after my boy friend, and that he was after me. He also said that anything can happen, so I shouldn’t worry. Ok, that scared me! I didn’t want him charming me, so I did what I know best. I BLOCKED HIM IMMEDIATELY. I have always said that social networks sites are good and bad, you only have to be smart.
