Please, do not worry so much about getting married just because your immediate family, especially your mum is always on your neck to marry.
Be guided by God's plan(S) for your Destiny and not your mother's.
Take note that; it is your life that matters, it is better you are patient to marry right and enjoy marriage rather rush and leave to regret in the future. You are still young and doing well in your business, at 29 & 30yrs? do not let them frustrate you into something you will not enjoy and rather regret all your life. In the future do not take your supposed partner and introduce him to your mum until you are sure he is Godly man(spiritually) and in love with you.
I wish you well.

Marriage is a union, between a man & woman, for a purpose of companionship, sexual gratification etc etc . But the realty is that, the females (women) are the ones who benefit from such unions, not men.

This should not give 'sleepless night' at all. You are still young at age 29. Focus on yourself. If you any questionable character, work on it to become a better woman. Respect every man but do not be desperate to open your legs for men that come your way because you want to marry, respect yourself and preserve your value as a virtuous woman; keep praying to God and the Lord is faithful to connect you to your husband. Do not worry about the behaviour of your family, believe in God and worship Him with your character.

In all things we should thank God. This is the time you don't have anything holding you down. Serve God well, work hard to build your business and God will gift you a husband.

You will not even have to go find one. And make sure you are not seeking for a husband to pleases your family. Look for a husband that please you.

Continue to build your business, show up at family meetings when you need to be there. When you show up and you think they are not taking your input peacefully inform that you need to go take care of your business and leave.

Remember there is no limit to when you can get married.

Hmm. I feel your pain. You are obviously from a family that expects success but does not know how to support you -either intentionally or unintentionally.
First, I believe you have one or two friends or close pals from school. Talk to them and ask for objective reasons they think you have not met someone. If what they advise is not against God's words, take the advice and fix yourself.
Secondly, you come across as very accomplished. That too may scare away some men. You may end up attracting men who want to use you and your money.We are promoting female empowerment but no one is teaching men how to handle empowered women. Be nice, humble etc but do not cross some boundaries: sponsoring the guy, premarital sex etc are a no , no.
Thirdly, be careful with your emotions. Mothers go to the extreme sometimes when they want their daughters to marry because society will blame they the mothers if you don't. Making reference to your car, encouraging your sister to disrespect you are all part of your mum's weakness. You may have to go back to her and talk to her like you, are her big sister . Advise her, draw on her conscience and reassure her- respectfully. You may get an elder she trusts to do so first before you follow up. She, needs help not you. You need patience. May God help you.
