One woman’s opinion about long-term relationships without any steps leading to marriage sparked some reactions among South African netizens recently.
Taking to Twitter, @_Siyamthanda_Z claimed that celebrating an anniversary of five years without lobola or any intentions on the man’s part to bring together the two families, was equivalent to receiving a missed call from a private number.
“Anniversary Ka 5 years without any lobolo noma nje ukvela ekhaya lomuntu ifana ne missed call Ka private number,” @_Siyamthanda_Z wrote in the tweet.
