After 12 years of searching for love on dating apps and sites, a Nigerian lady named Amaka has married her Romanian lover, Robert, whom she dated online for five months.
Amaka did a tell-it-all on her journey to finding love on the dating site Bumble and how she almost gave up on online love searches.
Amaka has been on dating sites since turning 25
Via the couple's page on Instagram, Amaka shared how she started looking for love on dating sites and apps at the age of 25.

As someone who hardly socialises and mingles with the opposite gender, Amaka said she found it difficult to find love the conventional way.
After 12 years on different dating sites and apps, Amaka was at the point of deleting the Bumble app when love came knocking.
Amaka shares how she met Robert
According to Amaka, Robert liked her profile when she was about to delete the Bumble app, and everything took off from that point. In her words:
"I had almost given up and was about deleting the app when he liked my profile, we matched and I said " hello" and that was how it all started...
"2 weeks later, he met with my parents virtually...asked for traditional marriage rites lists..."
Amaka and Robert sealed their love in a month of physical meeting
After five months of online dating, Robert, based in the United Kingdom, finally came to Nigeria for his first meeting with Amaka on August 4.
On August 5, the couple had their court and church wedding on August 12, all in Nigeria. Though Robert's parents couldn't physically attend, they followed the occasion virtually.
Amaka said she got married at age 37 and appreciated God for making it possible.
"It was the happiest day of my life getting married to the man whom God used to take away all the name calling, mockery & tears I was experiencing as a 37 years old unmarried single lady!
"God never comes late, He only has His time table & He follows it duely!
"To Him alone be the Glory."
