I cant live in isolation any longer and am moving back this October with nothing resolved. He just dosent supply anything court ask for so it keeps getting cancelled .
I have been so depressed at times that its time to throw in the towel and return to family and friends

You should do that. You can get divorced in the UK. If your husband does not reply to correspondence, it will be a long process there too. But, going back to the UK does not stop you getting divorced.

Hello everyone,

Thank you for all your support and advice. I did not post for a few months because a few days after I started this thread my husband found it. There were ructions, to say the least.

In answer to your question I have decided to divorce my husband. The turning point for me was waking up one morning and realising that actually I wasn't that homesick anymore; but I was still miserable in my relationship. It's just not right for me. In addition over the last few months his alcohol consumption has become a big problem, as has how he treats me when he's been drinking. No violence, but a lot of emotional blackmail, passive aggressiveness and sometimes calling me names.

At first I was devastated but now, even though it's only been a couple of weeks since I told him it was over, I feel strangely liberated. I'm broke as hell, as I'm paying rent on our current apartment and just put down a deposit on a room in a houseshare, but it will be worth it in the end.

I think I will probably move back in the middle of next year, but I'm not completely averse to staying where I'm at if I start having an amazing time. That's not out of the question, but my career's not really taking off, so I think I'll probably do better in London. We'll see

Lots of possibilities ahead!!

Wow thats quite an update.
I hope the move to the house share and divorce go smoothly. Stay safe.

Well done.

Hi there. Reading through your posts I can see how strong you have become. You need to be proud of yourself for taking control of your life. You are very brave. Good luck with whatever you decide or where ever life takes you. xxx
