What have I gone and done this time!!!!?

Well I've done it now!
I was stupid (wot you i hear you say) I let my wife sell the house and told the law to let her have the money.
Now she is liveing with her new man and I have to go to court to get a divorce and try to get my half back.
At the time I was a very sad chap living in a field and showering at work I just did what i was told (just as I always had) what a fool!
life is like a bunch of carrots, you always know what you are going to get.
my Dad once told me that "when money goes out the door love goes out the window" he forgot to say anything about what happens when you go out the door?
well thats it for now.

ps divorce is like jelly! with a jelly you put all that water in and after a time it takes shape, then when you want your water back the more you push the biger the mess gets.

Hi Andy

welcome to this site

Well you have gone and done it havent you?
I hope you get somewhere with sorting things out .
Lots of us here relate to that feeling of everything being out of control and being unable to think straight .
Not many will have experienced living in a field though!!

What does it mean When money goes out the door love goes out the window?

well got to get make to my own jelly mess!!

good luck to you, hope you are not still in field with winter coming!!

hi ,
welcome to wiki.
When you are hurt you cannot think properly.I am sure you can salvage your assets.When the marriage is over you still need money to live.
Thought of walkiing away from everything once for peace and quiet but your fighting stinct does come back.
wish you all the best

Hey Andy

Sorry to hear your story, it sounds more mud pie than jelly melly!

some new wiki proverbs!

A rolling stone gathers no bad penny
a bird in the hand are soon parted
a fool makes the heart grow fonder!


seriously though - I hope you are getting some legal advice (and soap on a rope!!)

take care and hope my flippancy is not out of turn, I know it must be really hard for you and I mean that about legal advice, see where you can go from here and welcome to Wiki there are lots of wise folks here who have lots of info and great advice to share.

Hi Andy, seems like you are gaining your strengthy & fight back!!! You must fight this & i hope you win your fair share of the money back. We are all here for you at Wikki, keep us updated,

So, why didnt you want the money for the house when you agreed for her to sell it? Now you want it because she's with someone else?

You should have claimed for half the house when it was sold. That's like giving someone a lottery ticket because you pity them, then claiming half the winnings when the numbers come up. You can't have your cake and eat it.

If it's the new man that's getting on your nerves, then that's not a reason to want half of her money. You GAVE it to her, now you want it back? Leave the playground and get a grip, sorry to be blunt AGAIN!

I really have to apologise for being so blunt sometimes on here, but some people really make me wonder, sorry for the last post if it hurts your feelings, but I'm the same with women on here, and I AM one... I just think that if you're going to be daft enough to let something go... like a house! and the profit, you shouldnt quibble at the outcome... most peeps are going to have a new partner, new children even, why make life more difficult for them because you made a bad decision, we live by our mistakes.
