“I had just given up and figure that was my lot in life. It was not a lot I had envisioned growing up but then I said that so be it. I was getting tired and wondering how much more I could take. But then it just happened. I found someone or he found me and I got married and it was like another opportunity to live, to breathe,” she said with a slight smile.
This sister got married in her late thirties and for her it was more of escaping her present circumstances than love courtship.
“Don’t get me wrong, I love my husband but when he first show interest I was not interested because I said to myself that once he finds out all he would just turn and walk. So I was giving him a hard time at first but the man saw me and was ready for a wife,” she said laughing.
