I also told him I wasn’t emotionally attached to him at that moment and wasn’t ready for marriage but he persisted and was convinced that I was his wife, he told me his been searching for a wife for 6years and I was the right choice for him. On the fifth day to his return ticket, I accepted his proposal to get married to him so he won’t talk to me again about marrying him but to my greatest surprise, he decided to do the traditional rites(our first and second introduction and paid my bride price in February )before traveling back, after the traditional rites where paid, our journey to forever started that day.
