I am 42 live in Pa. and have been married for only 3 years. We were both older when we married, which I thought would make it easier. However that is not the case. It seems I married a con. I quit my job, moved from my apt. and gave up my car. I do love living in this small town and want to stay. That being said, I do not think I can save this marriage. My husband is regressing to an irresponsible teen, his name is the only one on the house, which is behind on the mortgage payments. He will not answer his cell when they call and keeps his head in the sand about all the finance. When I pay bills or try to get things under control he complains about me spending all his money. Twice we almost lost our home to foreclosure but at the last minute he did talk to the mortgage comp. and we have been trying to work it out with them.
I guess my question is... Legally, what rights do I have to any monies that he brings in?
I feel awful that it has come to this, but I just can't keep playing this game. I have 2 teen daughters and a grandchild that count on me for a roof over their head. And I want to make sure we have a place to live. I work a few days a week and get a small amount of child support, but financially, I'm pretty much screwed. I want to get my own place with the girls, but worry about paying the bills. I don't want my granddaughter raised on gov. assistance and want to provide for my family.
Thank you for any help.
