I Am Divorcing My Controlling, Emotionally Abusive Husband

Just to update those that care I actually saw my divorce attorney just yesterday. Was my consultation. She gave me a list of things to figure out before she draws the papers up and what not. That will hopefully be happening this coming up week.

We have a game plan and she is an incredible attorney. Fingers crossed it goes easily, but we have a plan and new papers waiting if he wants a court battle. I can’t wait to be free from his control!🙌🏻

On another note he already lives with the woman he ran around on me with and I made her aware of his abuse and everything else. Silly girl decided to keep him even though she’s told me she’s already caught him cheating on her too. At least he isn’t my dumpster fire anymore.

This process couldn’t be started sooner. Within a month of him signing my attorney will file it directly and it will be all said and done within 30 days!!!! I can’t proclaim how relieved and excited I am to be moving on with my life.

Well I guess you have your own place to live? If he lived there change the locks if you have anything joint make sure you close those accounts because if you do not well you are still responsible if you have life insurance or any kind of insurance change the beneficiary well it he was the beneficiary if you have any credit cards together get your name off it or cancel them. If you have an alarm system at home and he had access make sure you email the alarm company and remove his name and contact person at the same time change the codes and master codes. Also put passwords on all your accounts what this is say you call your bank well before they start talking to you they will ask there security questions and then ask for the password and if they do not know it they will hang up the phone. even on your credit cards and bank cards change the pin. I am not saying he a bad person I have no idea who he is but it called protecting yourself because you have no idea what he might do once you get started with divorce prceedings.

Don’t worry. I have all those ducks in a row already. Everything is pretty done and done. @updown2020

@SomniumProeliator Oh okay I am one for security put the cost out once. There are locks available that only you can make copies of the keys you will have to show a ID then you can make copies and at any given time you can call the locksmith give your ID and ask them how many keys you have and they can tell you exactly how many keys you have and these locks cannot be picked either. And if you rent well when you move you just put back the old locks and take the good ones.
