"We separated. I left him to stay in my house and moved to my friend's house," Pauline recalled.

Godfrey was single at the time his female friend introduced him to Tinder. He went on downloaded and Tinder on his phone, and luckily, he got five matches.
"It was my first time on Tinder and within the first day, I liked five women," Godfrey said.
Godfrey said he had spoken to one of the women and arranged to meet her, but his friend didn't like Pauline because the other women were light-skinned.
On the other hand, Pauline said:
"I wanted someone self employed, mature. I first said hi to him on Tinder and he responded."
They went ahead to chat, and three days later, they decided to meet for lunch.
"The day we had our first meeting, she had two other dates with wealthy men from Tinder," Godfrey recalled.
Pauline met Godfrey, and they went to his house in Kawangware for him to change before they went out for lunch.
"When we got home, she sat next to the door. After changing, I gave her a house tour and told her 'this is your house'. I had already made up my mind that she was the one meant for me," he said.
Godfrey, a lover of cars, swept Pauline off her feet the first day they met.
"He gave me a warm welcome and the fact he told me everything about his past relationship made me get attracted to him," the mother of two narrated.
Pauline said she made it clear that she was not all about money, cars but peace.
After spending the day together, the couple decided to give it a try, and Pauline consulted her best friend on what to do, and she told her to have fun with him.
"The same day we set eyes on each other is the same day she got married," Godfrey said.
Speaking about their first date, Pauline said:
"We met on Saturday and I slept at his place untill Monday."
The following week Godfrey met Pauline's sister, and the rest is history.
Godfrey and his ex-lover are co-parenting.
