Divorce

You are a male or female?

If in any case you do not want to continue with the relationship then, go for MCD. If your spouse is not ready then, file for divorce on the ground of cruelty.

If you are a woman you can seek protection order under the domestic violance act.

I'm a female

How is a fair settlement made with MCD

Better to save marriage institution, reconcile.untill there is any thing serious. Have a frank and open talk.

Best of luck

Would appreciate if you elaborate how it is done. Is it like just receive and keep bearing the pain for the end of life if not how is reconciliation done on the other side. If it gets deviated how should it be dealt like just keep forgiving and keep on bearing the pain just because you are a femele you need to save the marriage.

Do you think abusers change

go for MCD.  distribute the properties acquired after marriage as 50% each.  If the children are there, their expenditure of past and present distribute equally.  If he is in a sound financial position, seek permanent alimony compensating the physical and mental agony you faced in the matrimonial life. If he does not agree for MCD, go for contested divorce on the ground of cruelty.
