After 7 years marriage do I have any rights on divorce from the things he bought on his name?
Question by Maria Lima: After 7 years marriage do I have any rights on divorce from the things he bought on his name?
Hi – My case is a little complicated… I am married for 7 years legally and we are now getting a divorce.
My case is this: When we got married a 10,000 pounds bill came along on his credit card and I payed 5,000 in stallments durunt 10 months… at the last stallment he left me and went to live with his parents without pay rent and didn’t help me while I needed to live in a share house with 10 people far away…
Naturally I became depressed… and for three months I just stayed in bed crying and spent another 5,000 in comforting myself shopping and bills, I begged him to stay with me and he acused me of insane daily and I almost became one.
One month later I rented a studio, got a job and enrolled on a course. He made me believe we were still together, and he would come over for sex for about six months. I accepted because I was fragile, waek and believed we would come back for good.
We rented together a bigger flat and he would still stay with me, but insisting he prefered live with his ‘flat mates’ for some freedom but he wanted us to be together with no pressure.
Only three years later I discovered that he had been living with another woman for two years on a flat he bought with the money he saved living with his parents and not paying rent, during this time he keept me thinking he was living on a share house, and that we were still together… but he was just using me without financial commitment.
I then found a boyfriend, and last January when me and my boyfriend were getting serious, he came along in the story saying to me that he was imature in the past, and now he had two flats and a better job, that he wanted us to be together for good, live together and have a baby. I had to take a decision…
In order to save my marriage and have a family and broke up with my boyfriend and accept his proposal. Told all my family we were getting back and having a baby, they told me that was better decision.
He then went to Lebanon for two months (said it was work) but now I just found out he was engaged with a lebanese girl for one year! Including the time he proposed me go back to him!
I just discovered that he made me break up with my boyfriend because my boyfriend was demanding me to get divorced, but my husband needed to get rid of his properties before…. so he manipulated me on something is my weak side in order to gain time….. my ex boyfriend told me he was doing this to gain time that I should divorce him straight away but I thought he was being bad person and believed my ex husband sweet lies….
I am devasted…….. I lost my boyfriend and was once again cheated by my ex husband ——- who now is demanding divorce in order to marry his fiancee to bring her into UK.
Do I have any rights on this mess? If anything, he left me financially, psychologic, emotionaly and fisically broken and used for his own gain… in every single way possible.
I feel so gutted to just sign a paper and and smile after he finally told me the whole ‘truth’ probably there’s even more evil acts behing that… I don’t know but this is pretty nasty.
I wonder if I have any rights at all?
In order to mislead me all this time and keep me without suspect anything he keept all our bills together (me paying), all his documents with me, and seeing me often during the last six years.
I wonder if I get a lawyer will I be able to at the very least get a divorce with some financial gain? Or I don’t have any rights at all and he can get away with this lies and actions?
Thank you!
