Marriage used to be very personal to me. So I felt the pain whenever something little went wrong. Marriage is not to be taken personally. It is friendship. If I get home and I cannot make banku, Ayibge (as she fondly calls her husband) will make the banku, and I will grind the pepper, so we eat together. When I\u2019m tired, I tell him to order shawarma and Fanta. By the time I get home, it\u2019s ready. We eat, gist, and go to bed. There\u2019s no pressure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverything about me now in my marriage is about friendship. Respect, trust, and love; are these three things that work in marriage. If I respect my husband, he will love me. He will take it away from me if I disregard his freedom. And so I respect what has been given,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer crossorigin=\"anonymous\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&#038;version=v13.0&#038;appId=1009694476028322&#038;autoLogAppEvents=1\" type=\"09496c0d1ce1ff410e4ac58d-text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Award-winning Gospel musician Empress Gifty\u00a0has shared the top three things that can make a person\u2019s marriage stay healthy.
