George Kamuremere, a lawyer met Rose Namanya, a journalist in September 2016 at Land Division Court in Nakawa. On several occasions, he went to her workplace to check on her.
How did you meet?
George: I needed to follow up on a client’s file so I was told Rose would help me get it. When I saw her, my heart skipped a beat. She was helpful. Although I was not able to get the file immediately, I asked for her contact.
Rose: I had promised to call him back when I got the file but he returned before the call. I looked for it but innocently because I did not know his intention. He came to my office several times just to say hello.
Several months later, he called to seek my permission to send me a text message and I accepted because several people asked to send me texts of the file details they needed.
When did you become close?
Rose: The text read, “My heart beats for you alone.” I thought it was a wrong number but he called again to confirm if I had received the message. I needed time to think about him so I thought I would answer after five months but I felt sorry about the way he frequently called to follow up. Finally, we agreed to meet.
George: I asked her out on a public holiday March 8, 2017 and while on the way, we did not talk too much because we are both reserved. I however made my intentions clear. I had not dated before but was sure I wanted to marry her.
How did you go about it?
George: On our second date, I asked her to skip church and this time we were free and talked at length. Click to read more…
