Hello, first of all cant this forum be accesed by housewife's or part time workers!!!! anyways i have been married since last six years and blessed with a beautiful lovely daughter(4 years). Ours was a arrange marriage. Our marriage just seemed to be start off shaky, to which like anyother girl living in our society thought were the initiall years which r difficult and they would evetually pass. My husband wouldnt talk for months with me inspite of me asking him that he should tell me if something of mine has bothered him,and he would snap back and i would keep quiet thinking its better if one of us dont lose temper. this would go on and on...i tried taking my mother in laws help but it just backfired. soon had a child thinking maybe the child would change situation between us! But all in vain ...there just was never ever much of a support from my husband be it physical ,emotional,financial....
i was not allowed to work saying that who would take care of the child, i agreed to everythhing if something would bring peace! things just got from bad to worse ...i would be treated as if i am a person who shudnt ask or have any wish since i wasnt earning,i would be put down even if i desired anything for my child. i then started to work as part time. me and my husband just kept going further n further.... he would suddenly lose temper and hit would threaten me that he would divorce me and take our daughter with him.
took all this until i finally spoke for myself...the result to it was that he left us and went to live with his parents and asked me to hurry uo and divorce him. when i said no that i wudnt he stoppped the little bit of finances he would provide by saying he has no job. since last 1 n half year he has not given anything. even if i have asked he says he is jobless n doesnt have money. my mother and brother have been helping me financially all this while.
he has never bothered to call or ask about our daughter... but speaks completly different language when u face him with family and relatives. about how much he loves the child .and would do anything for her. now since mar.'13 he is behind me to leave this house so that he can sell it n have some money.
i have been really slugging it out with my child all by myself without any support from him. but now its really too much and i think i need to take some action against him. a friend suggested i file for maintenance than divorce, and a lawyer said its better i just file divorce since he is jobless and i will not get anything,and should just sell the house.
would really be helpfull if you could suggest something useful so that i atleast have roof over my head before he manages to get me out with my child!
hoping for some help!
thank you!
