ExH and I split over 2 years ago.
Since then he has acted pretty badly and left me with no choice but to wait until the 2 years had passed so I could divorce him.
The 2 years is now up but I have asked him several times to pay half the cost for the divorce and, despite agreeing, has not been forthcoming with any money.
I am a full time student at the moment and am only working part time, as such I'm in a difficult position financially and cannot really afford to spend £400 (or whatever it is) on the divorce papers. That should be the sum of the costs as we have no assests/child issues to dispute.
But I'm getting to the point now where I am really fed up of waiting for him to cough up the money. I feel like it will never happen if I'm waiting for him and I really don't want to be married to him anymore. If I had a million in the bank I would have divorced him yesterday!
I have about £500 left in savings (student loan) so I could just about cover it but it would not leave me much in the way of a safety net and my earnings only just cover my outgoings so not much opportunity to save up.
Wibu to just spend all my savings getting rid of this useless man who has blighted my life but potentially leave myself broke or should I be more sensible and wait until I have a better safety net or heaven forbid he actually keeps his word and give me half the cost
