I am currently living with (d)p. We have been together for 13 years and have 2 ds (7&2). For the past year and a half I've not been happy in our relationship due to numerous let downs by dp.
I looking to find out what would happen if I was to suugest a separation. The house is mortgaged in dp's name due to my financial history and I pay him half of the mortgage each month by standing order. I also pay for other household bills (sky, tv licence). Dp has never contributed any money towards the boys and i buy them everything. Dp says that he shouldn't have to pay as I get child benefit for them!!!!!
Anyway, around a year ago I had a one night stand (I know it's wrong and I don't need flaming) but this made me realise that I no longer loved dp. I have been trying to pluck up the courage to end the relationship but have not got there quite yet.
Does anyone know where I would stand with regards to entitlement to the house/equity from the house as I don't think i'd be able to get a mortgage on my own due to previous finances.
Thanks
