Bad Times
Jump to: Newest in thread
My husband tonight told me to leave and take my animals with me. No reason given.
I know I've got to stand my ground: we jointly own the house, have three children and I've got as many dogs. He hates them btw.
My question is this: how can I persuade him that it really is better that we try separation, that he move out for a while just to see how we get on?
I want to have another miserable Xmas!
This is the man who hasn't touched me for 12 years, he's the reason I'm on here.
Life. I hate it at the moment. Reasons to go on?

Neither of you should leave if you can't afford somewhere new to live.
The law recognises that you both have a right to live in the home that you both co-own.
Other than that I'm reluctant to say anything else because it sounds like a messy situation but if I were in your shoes I'd be trying to get into marriage counselling or mediation ASAP. |

Easier that's incredibly selfish of you don't you think? Is he a good parent, does he work, who supports the kids? Long gone are the days a woman his the claim on the house. |

No way would it be easier for him.
Besides, there must be thousands of hotel rooms in the Guilford/Woking areas, you just need to plan a little better. |

I'd say they need to be civil for the sake of the C word but neither should leave.

Nobody here can advise. We know nothing about either of them. |

stay where you are...i would assume you are the main carer for the children..especially if he can stay locally at his mothers..get legal advice..you can get a certain amount free....horrible..i feel for you...but yes, legal advice..and friends..talk to a good friend who's near..i really feel for you..had a similar situation, but without kids,so a lot simpler..good luck... |

You put a thread up you have to expect comments. It would have been totally different if it was a guy though I am giggling at some of the biased comments though. Maybe I have based my view on reading some of the many cheating threads up up by guys in the past. |

I'd always advise anyone, regardless of their sex, not to leave a shared home without legal advice.
The only time that wouldn't apply would be when the physical safety of one of them was at risk. That doesn't seem to be the case here. |

Who is to say who would get custody of the children it might be him and the kids may want to be with him if they could make a honest decision based on facts. |

It isn't. Is jointly owned. I have responsibly fire the children and the animals. If we were moving somewhere it would be a lot more expensive than if he were to. Do the maths!

Ah, i see now, your husband isn't their natural father. Otherwise he'd have joint responsibility for them too.

You're wrong but since it isn't the bloke who has asked, you can't know either way. So, stop fucking stirring up shit, as usual.
I don't happen to think that a woman automatically has more right to the house or custody of the kids than a man. Nobody here is in a position to determine that.
That's why they both need to do nothing to potentially harm their situation and they both need to get qualified advice. |

He did. It's finished. But I've not been in a position to pay it, having worked part time for many years whist caring for the children. Our youngest child has special needs and needs a stable home life. Autism. |

Then maybe it would have been a better idea not to cheat on your husband to help maintain a stable life for your child. |

This is why they need to stay put and be civil until they can get legal advice. There are too many variables. |

Is he the father of the children? If he is he is quite likely to want custody.
From the info you gave it sounds like he wants you and the animals out while he stays at the house with the kids. I can't really see why this should come as a suprise to you. I would want the same. Women USED to have the default of they got the house and the custody of kids almost without question. We have moved on from those attitudes. Perhaps your expectations are no longer realistic. |

I know a guy who's wife cheated and she had 3 cats and 2 dogs and the first thing he did was have them put down. I thought initially WOW That's drastic but then thought maybe it was the sensible thing to do. |

OP the only advice I can give you is to not take drastic action and move out because of uncomfortable home situation and stay put. Of course he is likely to do the same.
Both of you get independent legal advice. |

well said I myself dislike that fact of being with someone and being cheated on whether be just texting or full blown sexual encounters.. I have no doubt that he has found out about your adultery and well to be honest I would not stay in an unloving relationship for my son... if I was him id be dragging your ass through the courts...  |

3 dogs a FB and a number of NSA meets that I presume your husband has not been consulted on... 12 years of war in a marriage, think it's time you spoke to your husband preferably with a marriage guidance type referee and figure out if you can't make it work how are you both going to look after the children. This is not the place for right guidence especially one sided. |

I was in a similar position myself....
...to your husband that is, so you'll get little sympathy from me.
Maybe if you'd taken more interest in your relationship rather than your animals and this place things would have been different.
Maybe consider rehoming your pets, leave this site and get some guidance. |

I wish I hadn't read some of the comments on this thread. It's nice to know people apparently deserve everything they get. By this logic I should probably be hung, drawn and quartered, or perhaps stoned to death.
OP, I'd suggest getting some legal advice quickly. It does rather sound like it's got beyond mediation or counselling. I hope you work something out that keeps things as stable as possible for your kids. |

Wow! How self centred can one person be?
I suspect what you really mean is that it would be less inconvenient to you if he moved out |

OP you started a thread a few days back about falling out with your FB, perhaps your husband has found out?
If you want advice perhaps you should see a solicitor |

Would you moving out and his father having custody not provide stability?
Maybe think about what's best for your kids and not you? |

Wow
For a site where we are all allegedly open minded individuals there are a lot of judgmental attitudes here.
Yes many of us don't agree with cheats but the vitriol shown in this thread is really quite shocking. We are not privy to the OP's situation, we do not know the household and family dynamics here. As such, who are we to comment on what is the right thing to do when there are children involved in the breakdown of the marriage?
OP, I really do think that you should do nothing until you have got legal advice and then you can figure out what it best for you and your children. |

OP, I really do think that you should do nothing until you have got legal advice and then you can figure out what it best for you and your children. "
I don't have an issue with people playing behind their partners backs (shock horror), they have their reasons. What I do object to is those people looking for sympathy when things go tits up. |

Difficult to comment objectively, as none of us knows the whole story. I am assuming your three children are still at home - if that's the situation then you and your husband need to do whatever is best for them. None of us is living your life either to know why it's got to where it is now. Mediation is often used now to try to find an amicable solution that is best for all of you, but especially the children. |

"

It's the automatic assumption that infidelity is the reason for what appears to be her partner's unreasonable behaviour (appreciate we only have one side of the story etc.) That happens on pretty much all threads about anything if someone reveals themselves to be cheating. It's always 'well are you surprised, you're cheating'.
Reminds me of an article I read yesterday about how infidelity is still being used as a consideration by judges in murder trials because it's considered the ultimate provocation. |

"My husband tonight told me to leave and take my animals with me. No reason given.
I know I've got to stand my ground: we jointly own the house, have three children and I've got as many dogs. He hates them btw.
My question is this: how can I persuade him that it really is better that we try separation, that he move out for a while just to see how we get on?
I want to have another miserable Xmas!
This is the man who hasn't touched me for 12 years, he's the reason I'm on here.
Life. I hate it at the moment. Reasons to go on?
"
From my perspective,your children are your only priority here.
No-one else matters.
Do what you can to protect them from unnecessary hurt.

I didn't say anything about her infidelity being the reason her partner has asked her to leave, I never assumed that...but.
She's obviously unhappy with the situation and home and wanted an escape, but when it's not on her terms seeks sympathy.
It's a crap situation to be in, granted, but I just can't feel sympathetic towards the OP. |

"Wow
For a site where we are all allegedly open minded individuals there are a lot of judgmental attitudes here.
Yes many of us don't agree with cheats but the vitriol shown in this thread is really quite shocking. We are not privy to the OP's situation, we do not know the household and family dynamics here.

We mostly are very open minded but "honest" with it. We are judging on one side, that's true. But that points to she did wrong . |

"I would put money on if it was a guy starting this thread he would get torn to bits. "
agreed folk give sympathy to women fact is o p cheating on hubby highly likely he found out and to be totally blunt i would not be airing my personal stuff on a public forim.
Feel sorry for hubby but more for innocent kids no sympathy for the o p. |

Bloody hell what's all this crap about if the OP was male the responses would be different. The OP HAS been lambasted!
OP seek legal advice AND look into mediation. This is best for you, your children and your husband (and finances since I believe legal aid has been dropped for divorces).
No time for sympathy, just time for action for all your sakes. |

"i think you should go .. go to a friends place or back to your parents ... call the bastards bluff . sort out your family with mediation and be happy with the fabbers you have met .. dont be a rachel . move on with your head held high .. youll be happier in the long run "
Call the bastards bluff? We don't know his side of the story. Quite an assumption you've made there...
Anyway OP I hope it all works out well for you all - not nice for any of you right now I'm sure. All the best |
