We always say age is just a number when it comes to love. But sometimes it actually matters especially when you and your partner have an age gap of 55 years. Here’s a case of a 16-year-old teenage boy, Selamet who married 71-year-old woman, Rohaya. Selamet is really attached to his wife and denied to all the religious obligations and restrictions from the family. Both of their families weren’t agreeing to their relationship but they had to accept it when they said that they would kill themselves if they were separated.
Selamet is so obsessed and possessive about his 71-year-old wife that he locked her in the house whenever he went out because he thought that other men might take her away. Selamet is a Muslim and had to follow some religious obligations but he neglected them too. He sometimes did not even go to the Mosque for the Friday prayers which is a compulsion for all the Muslim men but women aren’t allowed there and he did not want to leave his wife at home alone. The village leader has also warned Selamet that their relationship is fine but he has to attend the prayers.
