His own family have sent me messages saying that they know i don't really want to leave and what a lovely man he can be. i'm starting to feel trapped in a corner and it would be so easy right now just to give in and put up with all his behaviour and stay married and miserable. |

Thanks for that, i guess its just that once you are in the middle of something like this you can't see which way to turn, even though you know what you SHOULD be doing. |

You are allowed to live separately but under the same roof, I think you file a form 4 with a 16.

Re: Divorce in queensland?
My ex-wife and I split our assets by sitting down with a piece of paper listing everything we owned. We then went through and decided who got what .. same with the money in the bank. No legal documents, no lawyers etc..
Try splitting assets this way before getting the lawyers/law involved. If one person starts on the law/lawyers .. the other will match .. and before you know it you're both in a mess. |

Re: Divorce in queensland?
Give the other half two options....
50/50 with no lawyers or 25/25/50 with the lawyers getting the last (bigger) share |

Re: Divorce in queensland?
Hi There
Just a bit off topic, at what point did you decide you wanted a divorce, what made you make the leap. I've been with my OH now 20 years, for the last year i have just gone with the plan tried not to upset him too much and agree in the right places, bought a house in an area that's OK but a bit quiet for me. I have three children 10, 8 and 5 and in order to move here sold my business, so currently have no job and no income, been here two years on the 27th September(not that i'm counting) and love it. Have put up with mood swings for 12 months when we first arrived as he didn't like it and let him go back to UK for a jolly to work out where he wanted to be. I'm fed up with trying to please and pander to the whims but am scared s***less about leaving and trying to make it on my own as i know it wouldn't be amicable or at points financially viable, just in process of purchasing a business in the hope this will give me my independance and the guts. |
