#TheFixer: “If it wasn’t for our kids, my husband and I wouldn’t be married”

Loading player...
On Wednesday, a KZN listener has wrote into Stacey and JSbu to sshare her story of being unhappy in her marriage, for years now.

Gugu has been married for 9 years and the last three have been difficult for her in her marriage. Her interests differ very much from her husband’s. And she feels their connection is gone and every day is a battle. She feels if it wasn’t for the kids they would no longer be together. But having split up before, she doesn't want to break his heart. They have 2 kids under the age of 10 and she's terrified of how the divorce will affect them at such a crucial age. What should she do?

We then asked KZN for help to assist us with Gugulethu's problem. What should she do with all these awful feelings she has towards her marriage and husband.

Listen to the full podcast to hear what KZN had to say.
