i have been married to my wife for 3yrs 10 mos. shortly after our marriage she was injured and has been disabled for 2 1/2 yrs (can't/wont work).. Our relationship has suffered greatly, and she has become increasingly verbally abusive as well as overindulges in alcohol and an array of strong medications (pain killers and anti-anxiety medications)
We have recently purchased a new home, and she has now escalated her abusiveness to unbearable levels...
I initiated counseling with a local therapist; however, my wife failed to make most of the appointments, and has discontinued attending sessions.
I need to get out of this marriage.... I overheard her speaking to one of her friends, indicating that if I pursued a divorce, she would fight it, and that she would "clean me out."
Can she do this?... Will I actually be required to pay this person alimony? What about my home.... I paid for this residence without any financial assistance from her. Is she entitled to any proceeds from this residence?
Help me....what options do I have?
