Hi

I did this until the house was sold (7 months) which was enough!

At first I had hoped to keep it, but due to debts that I didn't know existed, it had to be sold.

To be honest, I'm glad it was sold as it means that there isn't a "we" situation when I talk about my home...

It is a hard situation, I only did it for a month and that was bad enough! At lest once you have been to court the situation will be clearer, do you think the house will have to be sold?

Surely in the end the judge will make a ruling on the house if you can't agree?

Hi Mercedes, goodness me! 3 years is a very long time, I don't think I could bear it, I think you have a will of iron or steel or what ever the saying is!!

I had to give up everything when I split with my ex, my furniture, white goods, clothes the lot and although it was sooo painful at the time, I don't regret it now, life moves on.

I understand you fighting your corner so that you can keep your home, but it can't be too good on your mental health or for the children to see your ex be negative towards you, or your bank account. Where does this end?

I am also not surprised that your ex doesn't want to stay over......would you?!

Ditto Louise' question....will the judge eventually make a ruling?
