Just wondering if anyone out there knows if it's illegal for me to pack my wife's property without her permission. We've been separated since April and she has decided that while she doesn't need any of her belongings, she also isn't all that interested in getting her hands back on them anytime soon.
I am attempting to move on with my life and I'm pretty sure she's receiving erroneous advice and information from a non-legal source.
It sounds to me that you are ready to be DONE!! So glad breathing comes so much easier for you.
Why would she put it on you? Her situation I mean. We make our own choices right. I have made some bad decisions, I gotta take the credit...or the credit form the good decisions don't go as far. If you don't help her along then she will learn on her own. Let her go. Get her stuff as far away from you as you can. You need to be able to live. If need be, I would definately take out a court order to have her stay away...women are just as dangerous as men.....
She puts it on me because she thought we had a good thing going. The thing is SHE did have a good thing going. I did pretty much everything around the house. I went to work everyday so that we could afford to live. And now she wants to take me for everything.
She's even gone as far as tell me that she doesn't care how I get her money, even if it means me selling my body on the street, as long as she gets paid.
It's not like I make a lot of money. She claims that her illness has rendered her unable to work. If everyone that was depressed didn't work, there would be a hell of a lot of people staying at home. Myself included because I want to move on so badly and can't because of her.
(Edited to fix an error....there are no kids involved here)
LOL...ok, cause that would change a lot. Anyway. What she does is her thing and you need to make sure you do yours. Looks like youa re on your way. Please try hard to find a place for her things...then it is out of your hands. As far as her "bad situations" they are not because of you.
I'm slowly coming to realize that her problems are not my fault. Unfortunately, she has yet to take responsibility for her life because she hasn't owned up to any of the degradation of our relationship. It's all my fault and she makes sure to tell me that in almost every message.
I'm trying to make the process as painless as possible for her, but she is receiving idiotic advice and believes her entitlement (3/4) to my income is fair. I'm going to be contacting a "real" divorce attorney this week and I will be taking advantage of what my employer's EAP has to offer in the way of legal advice. I'm even going to be making an appointment with Legal Aid because even though I'm not entitled to it, I can receive legal advice from them for one hour for free.
I will not let myself be her victim anymore. She isolated me from my family (I know that I let her). She took advantage of my caring nature and I will not allow her to do so any longer.
Yes, an attorney would be a good idea. I sure wish you well with all of this. Sounds like you have found a wonderful srength inside and I hope you let it shine through! I am proud of you!! I have to go now but would love to talk more tomorrow! Good night for now...Start
I have an attorney already, but I'm not happy with his progress because he won't give me any advice and wants me to drive all my decisions (even though I'm not sure what the heck I'm supposed to do). I figure with a new attorney, someone who is an actual litigator, I will receive the advice that I'm looking for.
I couldn't imagine putting an attorney in the budget....that would put me underwater. I don't know all the specifics but I would try for another if you are not happy with the one you have. I wish you all the luck. It has been very nice to meet you and hope this all works out. Let me know what is to come.....Hugs, Start
OMG, you most definitely need an attorney. She isn't your "ex" yet. She is still your wife. Is the title to the house in both your names? You need to be very careful about how you handle this whole thing regarding her possessions, and you need an attorney who will actively advise you as to what is in your best interest. Your first attorney was not doing his job properly. You are doing the right thing in finding a new one. This sounds like it is going to get even more dicey and you need to know that the person you are paying for legal services is diligently working with your best interest in mind.
