Forced To Love ?
Sometimes i usually get to go down memory lane and i find myself very impressed sometimes with the way development has helped us out here,in this region that's next to the source of the River Nile.
Well,i remember some weird occurances that i have witnessed in life.Let me just talk about one of them here.
In a certain regionback here,there are some tribes that used to allow men to practise some weird methods of acquiring a wife.....
A man would just target a lady he has admired alot,then he will follow her pattern of operations in her daily life.
This man would then plot with his fellow men friends and in broad daylight would ambush the lady even at busy places where markets are full of people.If someone were a stranger there,he would be told by the public that the lady is getting married.
The man's friend would bundle the lady upon their shoulders and carry her to a secret location where the man will hide the lady till her parents send messengers for negotiations with him.
This man will then arrange an entourage to visit the lady's parents for dowry negotiations.All this is done as the lady plays a passive role and is only there to accept the decisions made.Nevertheless,she was expected to keep to her man till death do.......and they would!
So,what puzzled me,is the fact that the ladies would go one to build successful marriages.Strange to read?.....Believe it!
What would i call that?Hmmmh...Forced love....does it work?
I believe,the reason is that,love can develop between any man and woman, and only a change in mindset is required for this!
