She wrote, “No man can come to my house until we are married. I don’t love o, let’s leave love aside. I like, I appreciate and respect, but I don’t like love. We will do anything in his house, but if he wants to come to my house, he should pay the bride price. He is the man; he should be responsible.
"He should come and carry me to his house. How can you be coming to my house and not putting a ring on it? It is better for me to hang my clothes in your house than for you to hang your clothes in my house.”
