I have been seperated for 12 months from ex dp of 15 years. Two children together 5 and 7 and I am staying in the family home. So this means he is still having to pay his half of the mortgage and I use most of the child maintenance bar £10 to pay my half. This seems a very kind offer from him. However the condition is that I cannot date while living in this house, and cannot have any male or female friends over, and definitely not a male stay the night or come round for dinner etc after the dc are in bed. He has made this very clear and wanted me to sign a written agreement which I refused but he said if he hears of anything (his brother lives next door) we will have to sell up. He said he’s not paying the mortgage for another man to come round it’s only for the kids. So this was fine 12 months ago I had no plans to date as being in a controlling relationship for 15 years had put me off men for life. But what happens if I do meet someone in the future? Will I have to sell the house? I don’t earn enough to rent, one of my DC is disabled and I only work part time. Is he being unreasonable I’m so confused. As on one hand I get to live in the family home but on the other hand I feel controlled.
