Husband making divorce difficult

So I submitted the papers (finally!!)

He has said he will contest the divorce - I tried keeping the reasons nice -ie he left family home, no sexual activity etc (but in reality it’s far worse than this!)

Once I told him I had sent the papers he said “hope you have lots of money saved you disgusting piece of s*t”

What are my options? He HATES me so I’m not sure what grounds he would have to contest? Would it go to court? Is he even likely to contest? Am I going to be forced to be married to him forever?? He’s constantly messaging me with horrible messages and being intimidating on pick up so why he wants to stay married is beyond me. I’m so scared and just want him out of my life as smoothly as possible (well not completely as we have a child!)

Yeah he's just a dick. I'd have a chat with the court about official service. They'll be more than happy to oblige. The court staff really are helpful, well they were in my case!

@fannybaws52 I have some incidients logged

@caribbeanyesplease I offered this to him - told him he could divorce me on whatever grounds he wanted and I would pay- he still said im not getting a divorce and I don't deserve a divorce because of how horrible I am.

@treacletoots thanks will give him the time frame then give them the call!
