I’ve been with my partner 14 years with 3 children 1, 3 and 5 We aren’t in love anymore, have been in separate rooms for months but he is refusing to make any physical changes to separate. He doesn’t do anything with the kids anymore I do all the main caring. Most of the equity in the house was put in by him so he doesn’t want sell as he is worried I will take half but also he won’t move out as feels what he has put in he shouldn’t have to pay rent somewhere. I totally understand this but mentally I can’t continue to live like this. I’ve tried to keep it normal for the children but I need to move on. Can I force him to sell? I don’t want to take him for every penny just enough for a home for me and the children. I do work part time so not a high earner but we agreed after birth of second child I would drop to PT so I was home with kids. I’m waiting for a solicitor to get back to me but has anyone had similar experience? He is very stubborn hard faced and I don’t think he is going to budge on this
