My marriage was also done in hush hush and I didn't get much time to evaluate her. Before the marriage, once in a while I did observe her fighting with and howling at auto drivers or vegetable vendors but I thought that she is being careful about spending money. No sooner we got married and she moved into my house than she started fighting over petty issues.
I am a cleanliness freak person and I do not like things spread around the house. She, on the other hand, is pretty random in her behavior. She would leave the bedsheets unfloded, she would make the sofa and bed crumpled each time she would get up after sitting at a particular spot, she would take a shower and leave the wet towel on bed or on sofa, cook curry without washing the vegetables and the list goes endlessly. And whenever I tried to make her aquainted with the way I would prefer to live and tell her how to blend in the family but she would always start her argument and would start fighting (and then when I compared her with what she looked to me when I saw her fighting with auto drivers and vegetable vendors before marriage then I realized that this is how she is and its inherent in her to fight and create issues).
She also has this personality disorder because of which she would talk to every old or new (even if she meets him or her the first time) and tell them all the chaos at the home complaining about me and my parents. She even starts gossiping that we are not sleeping around together. There are plenty such incidences where she has reached out to my friends and gossiped about our unhappy marriage. Some of my friends even started avoiding me.
During our marriage we didn't take any dowry - no cash, no property no car. There were some expenses of about 5 lakhs which they paid during the wedding so we returned them that money as well and have a recorded converstaion of the same. I am sure this recorded conversation will help me to potect myself in case they claim that we took any dowry.
I am planning for a divorce. I have a house which is in my name. I am planning to gift deed my house to my sister (or mother) and then file the divorce.
My question is : Can the court revoke the gift deed if my wife contests the divorce ? Can the law pointout that this gift deed was contemplated and pre-mediatted before divorce and hence it would benullified ?
Maintenance is not should not be an issue in my case because my wife is an engineer, she works in a large MNC and earns more than half of what I earn. Not really sure but she has a house in her name as well in Gujarat so she wont have a change of living status after he divorce. Hence I dont think maintenance wont be an issue - am only particular about the house which I want to protect.
