I don't know what committing adultery, at this point, has to do with it. Of course, you will get a legal separation and that lasts three years. What you do in that time is your own business as long as it is a legal separation.

Sounds like you need to get away from him. Get out. Change your bank account so the debit card is defunct and he can't get your money. Get a job. Get your diabetes back in shape. If you are on medication (and I know diabetic meds are not all that expensive) take it faithfully. I am a diabetic so know what I am talking about.

Take care of yourself and your health and then you can see everything with a clear mind, then everything else will take care of itself. Good luck, lovelady; I wish you the best in your endeavour.

Your lawey is an IDIOT. Take care of yourself first. Secure any funds you can.
