CHEATING SPOUSE

Husband confessed 2 months ago that he has cheated on me yet again. Stupidly I forgave him 4 years ago. Since then the marriage has been a sham. Great to the outside world but behind close doors, separate bedrooms, no intimacy for 3 years. We were ok (ish) for a year after I found out he cheated the first time, then we had a massive row and he used it as an excuse to sleep separate. We still did the holidays, going out etc but no intimacy. Now 4 years later, he confesses to seeing someone and is leaving me to be with her. I asked him to leave, to which he replied its not that easy! I made it easy by packing up his stuff! This was 2 months ago and he is now living with his mistress at the weekend and the matrimonial home during the week. He comes back bold as brass on a Monday evening. We do not speak, he lives up in his bedroom. He literally walks in from work and goes straight upstairs. Pops down for his wine and coffee (moreso wine). I have contacted a solicitor who wrote to him to see if he will admit to adultery on the divorce but no response. I asked him when is he going to respond, he says when he's ready! I am now issuing the divorce on unreasonable behavior. I have had the house valued but he refuses to acknowledge this. So I can't even put it on the market. The house is jointly owned. The thought of living in the same house as him for the foreseeable is making me ill. I want a divorce, financial settlement and house sale asap but he is just plodding on. I even told him I would make sure he would not be financially penalised for setting up home with someone else whilst still married to me, but he still refuses to do one! Surely if he's confessed then he wants to be with her and she wants him to be with her! Apart from moving out myself I really dont know what to do.

Lol I have not had him back to mine but maybe now I will!!
He is so pathetic. Its like I am the one who has ruined the marriage. You can so tell he is cheesed (politely put) off that I am now seeing someone. Hilarious!

Oh Jane, I'd have my date over and have really loud sex and date nights at home when he's in.

Oh please tell me u did this! Any update? Hope ure happy and he’s finally done one!

Hi Unfortunately, he has still not done one! Despite several letters from my solicitor. neither has he given his financial disclosure. He now knows I am seeing someone as he's not too impressed I don't think lol

Got the decree nisi but n absolute until finances sorted and he still hasn't disclosed anything. He hasn't agreed to mediate so I now have a certificate from a mediator to give to the court. So I presume its now down to the judge. This should be interesting.

Congratulations OP, fingers crossed the court date is soon and you can sell the house

Wow OP just found your thread and what a lot you've been through. Sounds like you're on your way to a better life.

Can I ask why you haven't told the OW that he's been free to live with her for a year? I don't think I could resist.

Glad to hear things are finally moving along for you!

If I could find out who the other woman is I sure would go knocking on her door. I would love to know what he is saying to her. I would gladly tell her she can have him gift wrapped! I mean he is such a catch! 4 times married, cheated on all and had a baby through an extra marital affair! Does anyone want his details 😂
