A 23 year old Indonesian woman was left stunned when she discovered her prospective husband, whom she had known for two years, was a woman. The two had met on social media and were residents of the same town. They decided to marry after dating for two years, and a ceremony was held in a village in West Java, Indonesia.

The woman brought their marriage documents to the religious affairs office the following day, hoping to have their union legally registered. The officials were shocked to discover that the groom from the previous day was a woman. Not only was the bride taken aback, but the staff present were equally incredulous and immediately denied the couple’s application for marriage registration.

The deceived bride, despite being tricked, accepted some blame for her lack of caution. She chose not to pursue legal action, asking only for them to separate and never see each other again, reported Mirrormedia.
