A 29-year-old woman is confused and seeking advice after her boyfriend was sentenced to 15 years in prison abroad, yet insists she waits for him.
The woman met the guy when she was much younger, during her IT. After a while, he travelled abroad and she stopped hearing from him. She later heard that he was indicted. He was eventually sentenced to 15 years in prison and he is begging her to wait for him for 15 years after which he will return and pay her bride price. She also said he has vehemently objected to her marrying another man, though he hasn’t married her traditionally, in court or in church.
He also gave her a second suggestion, which is to come abroad and visit him in prison so he can get her pregnant then she will birth his child.
Read her tory below and also some advice she got from people.

Women are never to be advised, because they will certainly do the opposite.
I stopped advising women since 1943.

I'm not against waiting for love, even if she'll be forty-four by the time he gets out. Maybe sooner (with good behavior), but there's also the possibility that he could get his sentence extended, if he's the type to get himself in trouble. If she loves him and she wants to wait........ Na she sabi.

But the fact that he has asked her to wait for him is worrisome. It just seems extremely selfish, and inconsiderate. It doesn't seem like he loves this woman; if he did, he would not want to hold her back and complicate her life with the repercussions of his bad decisions. That might not be someone worth waiting for. He's desperate to stay connected to the outside world so that he won't be starting from scratch after fifteen years.
