He wears a ring and tells the world that we are married. and he's pissed i won't put MARRIED to him on Facebook. He says the fact that I won't go "public" shows that I am no proud of him. HE has that he is married to ne everywhere.
Here's my question though. My divorce from my ex became final about 1 month ago. I have been living with my fiance for 2 years. My divorce was filed 3.5 years ago. It took forever because my fiance was holding my money and said that my lawyer sucked and he wouldn't pay to finish it.
Well, it's final now. My question is -- am I legally (common law) married or does it take another 6 months after my divorce to be final?
If you've only been divorced for one month, you're likely not common-law married, unless only for a month. Even if you've been shacking up for two years (also known as adultery, dear).
Frankly, you should not even be DATING at this point, let alone "engaged". I'm sorry, but I find it hard to believe that a woman your age is this immature - more worried about her hair and nails and expensive "engagement" ring than growing into an actual mature woman. Of course, the latter requires hard work. You need to open your own bank account, where you can direct deposit your paychecks. Find an apartment to rent and move out. Consider whatever happens with your tax refund a lesson learned. Start standing on your own two feet. Hopefully your therapist can help you figure out why you're afraid to do so.
