Imagine being so confident that your partner will say yes to marrying you that you don’t even ask. You send your uncles to her home straight. This South African man claims to have done that in his recent Twitter post.
“They spent a night at Ladysmith(her home) because it’s a 400km drive negotiating,” he said. “She was also there visiting and had known my folks were coming. In my culture, women can also participate in negotiations, and they respect that. It was agreed that we should also draft a letter
The man also revealed that his wife had miscarried, and he was required to pay damages as custom.
No romantic gestures were necessary; he knew her heart “I didn’t even make a romantic gesture of engaging my wife. I knew from our conversations that she would be keen to marry me,” he said in the thread, which you can see below:
