Two South African women who got married last year have declared they are desperately in need of a man who can give them kids.
The two women met on Istagram and tied the knot in front of shocked crowd,but one year down the line,they have nothing to show for their marriage.
The two shared their story,and here is how it goes:
โWe met on Instagram when we started following each other because we had mutual friends.โ Anele said.
โWhen Seipati approached me she basically commented on one of my pics whilst enquiring why she wasnโt invited for lunch. I told her if she works near where I work she could come through anytime. When Seipati asked me to lunch, I told myself to live a little. Whatโs the worst that can happen? I didnโt have too many expectations but I didnโt mind having lunch with the hotness that she is. Seipati admitted after we got engaged that she was actually looking for more of a fling because I was sexy. Our wedding day, (8 May 2016) was our two-year anniversary. Seipati proposed after three months of us dating and we decided to push back our wedding date for a bit so we could settle into our relationship and engagement.
โOn our first date I said to Seipati, if after this lunch you donโt see a future for us please donโt call me again. After the proposal I knew Seipati was serious about us having a future together. We met each other and so much was going on in our lives but we managed to be there for each other and take care of one another. I canโt pin point a moment but there was a point where we both were like โIโm happy here, my heart is taken care of and this is homeโ.
The Proposal
โAfter we ate she took my hand and told me how much she loves me and wants to spend the rest of her life with me. Seipati cooked dinner at home one night when I got back from work. Weโd spoken about marriage but I donโt think you ever expect someone popping the big question. After we ate she took my hand and told me how much she loves me and wants to spend the rest of her life with me. I cried. I am so glad she didnโt propose in public because I cried like a baby.
โSomething important in a relationship is understanding the importance of communication and that we have different โlove languagesโ in a relationship. Weโve learnt that weโre still two individuals, who express emotions, values and certain things differently.
โWeโve learnt to express how we feel at the time in a respectful manner and we donโt walk away without resolving our issues. We also try by all means to be patient with one another which is easier said than done. We remind each other every day is that we love each other and are building towards the same goal which is a happy life together, forever.
The wedding
โIt was stressful having to juggle work, school and planning a wedding. Also due to the fact that we were also paying our own fees, wedding costs werenโt helping matters, but in the end we pulled it all off. We had family and friends that werenโt very supportive of our union. The reaction by some was to ask why did we not simply continue living together because if we got married what would people say? Itโs been an emotional journey and it hurt at times to have people you love, love you conditionally.
โIt took us time to get to a point where we say you know what itโs okay, we are not doing this for anybody else but us. We knew we wanted this, we love each other and even if itโs just the two of us on the day, we will still be the happiest couple because we are entering into a marriage together. You canโt change how people feel, but you can work on how you react to them.
โOur wedding was held at the Victorian Manor, Cullinan. The theme was black and white with a touch of royal blue. We had 60 guests. One of our best decisions was hiring a wedding planner (Bradlee Holcomb). This helped us focus and start the process such as looking for venues, figuring out a theme and budget etc. My gown was bought and delivered last year December (2015) so that wasnโt too stressful. My second outfit and both of Seipatiโs suits were made by Lerato owner of Ethnik Republik.
The future
โHopefully complete our studies and graduate next year (2017), buy our home and babiesโฆLots and lots of babies, Seipati will kill me because sheโs not sold on this football team of kids.
