In a previous interview, while talking about dating in her religion, Pesh, who is also an IT specialist, said women were not allowed to date to preserve their purity.
Before meeting Dan, the model said the men interested in her were not born-again nor read for a long-term relationship.
“You see, in our church for the ladies it’s all about preserving our purity. We are not allowed to date and this is what most men want. Once a man shows interest in you, and you like him, you have to notify the church immediately,” said Pesh.
In addition, Pesh said once you start dating, the courtship “has to last not beyond six months and you are not allowed to have sex. During this time, you get to meet each other’s family and dowry is paid. Once the courtship period is done, you wed.”
