unreasonable behaviour

With the UB grounds for divorce it mentions it needs to have happened within 6 months if you are still cohabiting. If you have separated & the STBX at that point moved out of the FMH into rented accomodation, can anything that has happened in the period since she moved out be cited as UB in any Petition on the basis of UB?

Thanx.

As long as it is in the last six months, yes.

Her moving out of the FMH itself would be grounds.

Lack of any interest of an intimate nature (Can't imagine there has been much of that recently)

Failing to stick to agreed arrangements

Failing to communicate about day to day issues

As long as these are things that contribute to the basic tenet that 'it would not be reasonable to be expected to live in this manner'.

You cannot use moving out of the FH a cause of unreasonable behaviour if she counters that the reason that she moved out was because of the behaviour of her stbx meant that she felt she could no longer live there. Believe me, I know this for a fact.


Lack of interest in intimacy!!!!! Come on.... who the heck would buy that especially if , again, she has a whole list of reasons why she felt she could not be intimate!

Lucretia,
The marriage is clearly over and it is about as dignified an ending for both parties as possible. No matter how lame the reasons appear in the real world, it is a means to an end to bring closure.

Is there any sense in anyone protracting matters?

Does the expression 'flogging a dead horse' mean anything here?

If two people's relationship has declined to the point where one sees it necessary to move out of the FMH, isn't that reason enough in itself to stop perpetuating the suffering, and move on and try to salvage something approaching a reasonable life for both?

Perhaps I am missing something here.

My husband was a controlling bully who was the king of emotional blackmail. I felt I had no alternative but to leave.
IF He DARED accuse me of UB because I left to protect my mental health, I would wipe the floor with him.
Yes I want a divorce but not at the expense of lies thank you.
