What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
We're still together but due to adultery I want a divorce. I have caught her and there is no excuse.
We have no kids, only a home (paid in full) that was purchased by us together with money that has been comingled for years. We have been married nearly 12 years.
Will it hurt my chance OR not have any bearing on my chance at recouping some of my money (from our home we will sale) if I move out BEFORE any notice is served?
Neither of us has filed, we have only talked about it BUT I cannot believe anything she says anymore so I do not know her plans.
Her comment was "it was just a game" (with the other guy) and that "I don't care about him". Thats not a game I want to part of.
She even mentioned maybe I should have her put in a mental institution for help????
At this point she is willing to do just about anything to get me to stay (she dosn't work). She asked me if I would stay until she could find a job although she STILL has not applied anywhere.
The looney tune even asked if she should become a stripper for "more money" and said she was willing to do that in order to pay bills.
My plans were to leave today but to first have everything transferred into her name (lights, gas, water, etc. etc.) and then leave. I told her since she would be here that I did not want my name on the bills. She reluctantly agreed to that.
Will this hurt my case? What I plan is to get all my stuff out, transer all necessary things in her name (lights, gas, etc) and THEN once I'm out to file for a divorce on her. I'm just wondering if this will hurt my chance of getting any of the proceeds from the sale of the house (which we have agreed to do).
Besides the obvious go hire an attorney, what if anything can I do NOW to help my case and ensure that I don't lose everything?
Thanks
