Efya about marriage and pressure<\/h4>\n

\u201cWhen I get to when I\u2019m ready to do those things, I\u2019ll do them. If you pressure me I\u2019ll stop picking up your phone calls and I\u2019ll block you\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThey (Family) don\u2019t bring it to me because I told them a long time ago not to pressure me to have kids, or to get married, none of those things\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The hosts asked if divorce was a fear.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not scared of divorce, I\u2019m scared of the whole process of marriage. Right now in our generation, there is no fear for loyalty, there is no honesty. Everybody is lying to each other, there is no commitment\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cMental health illness is on the rise, depression is on the rise. Let\u2019s tell each other how we feel so that we can actually be free\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
