Businesswoman Adeola Adeyemi, widely known as Diiadem, has stated that she is currently single and has no intention of compromising her relationship standards.
The entrepreneur emphasised that she would rather remain unmarried than accept what she described as the bare minimum from a partner.
She made this known during a house tour with content creator Jarvis, where she spoke candidly about her personal life and how her expectations in relationships have evolved.
According to her, her experiences and growth have reshaped what she now considers acceptable in a partner.
At 35, Diiadem said she believes her success may be intimidating to some men, adding that her current stage in life requires a partner who brings significantly more to the table. She stressed that she is no longer willing to settle for relationships that do not match her level of ambition and achievement.
“I am very single. I feel like most guys are scared of successful women. At this stage in my life, anyone who wants to be with me has to be ten times better,” she said.
The entrepreneur explained that she has moved past relationships where she bears the responsibility of building or supporting her partner alone. Instead, she now prioritises mutual growth and shared value, noting that she desires a partner who can contribute meaningfully to her life and aspirations.
Diiadem expressed dissatisfaction with past experiences involving partners she described as lacking drive or ambition. She said she is no longer interested in investing her time and energy into individuals who are not equally committed to personal development and success.
“Because I’m actually really done with dullards, people that I’m trying to build. I want someone who would build me too. I don’t need someone I’m going to be pouring into. I want someone who will pour into me. So, I would rather be single than settle for the bare minimum,” she said.
She further emphasised that her preference is rooted in self-awareness and a clear understanding of her worth, adding that settling for less would be a disservice to her personal growth. According to her, remaining single is a better option than entering a relationship that does not meet her expectations.
