Hello

I am at the point that I would like to ask my husband to leave the house (separation). Would appreciate feedback on how others have done it and what if he won't leave?

I am not sure where he will go but I am worried about his access to our bank account and him taking the money any feedback?

Lastly, if you have children how did you handle his seeing children while not living at home?

Thank you for any feedback you may have.

Mine was different as he was removed by the sherrifs for abuse after i got a RO ... but, i woudl be sure the kids are no where around (like elsewhere) & just be up front.


As for the money - i woudl take 1/2 out of your accoutns, & tell him HIS 1/2 is still there. Keep all receipts as well.

pt8698...

Pianoguy has discovered that many women who feel they can no longer live with their husbands...MAKE OTHER LIVING ARRANGEMENTS FOR THEMSELVES!

You didn't indicate in your post if you own the house, if he does, or if its a joint ownership? If you're in a rental situation...same thing. Is the lease in his name, yours, or both?

As for the children....you need to come up with a legal written arrangement (through a lawyer or some form of notary) that indicates when, where, and how often 'the missing parent' can see his (or her) children.

Well.... "we" lived in our house until it sold during our divorce process... not easy, but we did it.


Now, before you ask him to leave, you have got to be sure that you know exactly what your rights and responsibilities will be once that happens, so I strongly suggest that you consult with an attorney before you ask anyone to do anything.
