As part of the "Жеңеке project" series, we will tell the story of Aizhana Sabirbaeva, who met her future husband thanks to a friend.

Unexpectedly for herself, Aizhana learned that her chosen one had been interested in her long before they met.

Aizhana was born on July 28, 2001, in the village of Komsomol, located in the Suzak district of the Jalal-Abad region (currently, the village is called Zhalgyz-Zhangak).

“I am the eldest of four children in the family. I was spoiled as a child. After finishing my studies at Gymnasium No. 10 ‘Korgart’, I enrolled in the Jalal-Abad Medical College to study ‘midwifery’. Later, I got a job at the regional maternity hospital in Jalal-Abad,” she shares.

One day, while at work, a friend came to her, who later became her sister-in-law (the younger sister of her husband). It was she who introduced Aizhana to her future spouse. Although he has roots in Jalal-Abad, he was born and raised in Bishkek. Interestingly, Aizhana's mother-in-law is also from the same village as her. After their introduction, Aizhana decided to search for him on social media and discovered that he was in her "blacklist" — blocked. As it turned out, he had previously tried to contact her, but she ignored his messages and blocked him.

According to her husband, when he was in the second grade, he came to their school and studied there for six months. “I noticed you back then. I liked you, I had my eye on you and decided that I would take you,” he laughs. There comes a moment for girls when they start to attract the attention of men. After finishing my studies and working at the maternity hospital, guys began to approach me with proposals of marriage, but none of them attracted me. I always blocked them. However, when I met my future husband, I immediately realized that he was an honest, modest, calm, and kind person, and I couldn't refuse him. Before he left for Bishkek, we met twice. After that, we started to communicate regularly by phone and text. Every morning began with his message “Good morning,” and ended with questions: “Did you eat?”, “Have a good rest,” “Good night.” His care and kindness won me over. At that time, I was grieving the death of my grandfather, and my future husband was very concerned: he called my friends and asked them to take care of me, to make sure I dressed warmly and ate properly. Even being far away, he showed concern. At that moment, I realized that I could rely on such a person,” Aizhana recalls.

“I have a difficult character, and no one could handle it. I warned him about this right away, and he replied that he could manage. To this day, he keeps his word. I have many memorable gifts from him, and he often gives me flowers for no reason. After the birth of our first child, he gave me an ‘iPhone’, and after the second, a gold chain. I expect that after the birth of the third, he will give me a car. When I first got married, and my husband would leave for a long time, I felt very lonely and often cried,” she shares.

The couple already has two children.
