Husband Wants divorce
      #180813 - 12/28/06 11:55 AM

Need help.... My husband of 11 years wants a divorce, I don't but, it's for the best. We have 2 children and a large house. We can't afford him to move out, so I have to deal with all his crap and daily reminder that he wants to leave. Anyone have an opinion on what I can do?

There is not much info there except your husband wants a divorce and you do not...usually thats the way it is...one wants it and the other does not. Eventually it will happen, but then if you can work things out maybe not.

Not much to go on...why does he want a divorce? Do you know why? You say you can't afford for him to move out? Do you both work? I would imagine with two children he would have to pay child support if the children remain with you as the custodial parent.

Its hard to give you much info as don't know too much.
From my experience and what I have seen on these board once someone wants out it usually happens. You might try posting on the Save your marriage board.

good luck to you.

I'll give you the same excellent advice I received when my husband of 20 years walked out - typical midlife crisis, other woman, etc. First, get an attorney. Do not trust your husband if he says you can work it out without a lawyer. Trust me, he is lying to you. The worse thing you can do is continue to trust him. Second, get copies of all financial documents, tax returns, bank statements, investments, etc. If he has left the home, get your keys and do not allow him to take anything from the home except for his clothing and other personal items. Start making plans to build a life without him. This is so hard, I know. I've been there, done that. The man I lived with and loved for 20 years has become someone I don't even recognize. So take it from one who knows, look out for yourself and cover your butt. Because divorce is war.
