Give her space.  Get interested in something or someone else for a while.  Absence sometimes makes the heart grow fonder. Some space may do you good too.  Dedicate yourself to something healthy.  Learn to make yourself happy.  You both can learn from this experience.  Perhaps you'll both decide to enjoy each others company, or not.  I think we need to remember this is just life, learn to make the best of it & we can't expect other people to do what we think they should.  Good luck and keep smiling.

Heres the thing man, I went through it to. There is nothing you can do; in respects to what she does with the money.  She does not have to provide and accounting to anyone of how she spends her child support check.  All she has to do is provide a home evironment for the child/children, you know feed and cloth them, get them to school ext.  If she is neglecting the children and you can prove it then call CPS or hire and attorney to take her back to court and win custody.   But before you do that, put yourself in the judges or a third parties shoes, how do you think others are going to see you case when you present what you have.  Most often emotions come in to play.  Good Luck

Sad. \nI am a father with custody of my now 20 year old daughter. It is very sad. If it doesn't work out, you will greive the end of the relationship.\n\nYou owe it to yourself to rest knowing you did everything you could to keep the relationship. I would make one last case with her. Try to convince her to stay with you, but if and probably when she rejects it, move on. \n\nDo your best to get a non-contested divorce. Know this, you will only retain custody of your son if she allows it. Courts give the children to the mother if they just look like they want it. So if she agrees, keep your son with you, if not, let her have him and fight for the best visitation you can get, Joint custody, if you can get it.\n\nDo some work on healing yourself and do what you can to get yourself back to happy with yourself. People make mistakes, big mistakes but it doesn't make them failures. Don't expect to re-establish a close relationship until you have gotten yourself off the rebound and back to a normal life.\n\nGood Luck and Sorry to hear about your loss.

i hope your wife divorces you for treating her daughter in such a cruel way and you can always get another dog, granted what she did was wrong but every child makes mistakes but suing her isnt the way to go, let her mother think of a proper punishment for what she did....

use a common friend to get to your ex-wife. i think it's very noble of you to try to work things out among yourselves. if your ex-wife still refuse to accept the fact that you're actually doing her a favor by resorting to peacefull means, then you have no choice but to do whatever would be necessary for the sake of your child. you need not feel guilty then if the court decides in your favor because you have tried your best to warn her.

Depending upon the state you live in...in the event of her death (sorry), you will probably inherit under community property laws. In the case of divorce, you just might be out a whole bunch of money. There is, however, some credibility towards you owning at least a piece of the equity based on the amount you pay. If she owned the house prior to marriage, it, generally speaking, is hers unless you end up on the deed. Get a lawyers opinion (sorry again).

Hey, you picked her, and now you're stuck with her forever, because you made a baby with her. You should have fought the move - it may be too late for that now. If she's living in another city, why is she trying to get the house? And why didn't you get an order for "no overnight guests of the opposite gender when the child is home" in your divorce/custody papers? I know a guy who did that, hired a PI and won custody of his 2 girls because the mom couldn't keep her legs crossed when her daughters were home.\n\nHave your visitation order with you and bring the police with you to pick up your kid for visitation. She can't keep the kid from you, and if the cops are already there, the whole tresspassing thing will vanish. Learn what your rights are and fight for them. There are a lot of father's support groups out there with a lot of legal information.\n\nShe is not going to get better. Maybe she will be distracted if she has a few more kids, and maybe you'll get lucky and she'll find another man to torture instead of you.\n\nDocument everything and bring it to court when you have to go. Don't be late with the child support, either, because judges don't look kindly on deadbeats -- and they also don't look kindly on women who won't let the fathers have relationships with the children. Record the phone calls. Get them for harrassment.\n\nGood luck to you.

She's exclusively yours.  Until then, she can go whereever she wants.\n\nIf you're worried about the messy divorce, sign a prenumptial agreement.

Well, the way I understand it, she's lived with you for the last 5 years and all of a sudden doesn't come home?  That's kidnapping, call the police.  But, She is old enough that the judge will listen to her opinion.  Get her friends, get her teachers... get people with you to back you up and go to that hearing.\n\nAsk the police about the kidnapping thing.

The problem is that, unless she's disabled, her income is probably not going to be high enough to allow her to purchase a home.  If she and her son-to-be-exhusband owned a home, she might be able to use her share of the equity from that home to purchase a place to live, if there is enough equity, depending upon the terms of the divorce..  \n\nShe could look into low-income rentals, known as Section 8.  Unfortunately, she doesn't have young children living with her and she's not yet elderly, so she may not qualify for that either. \n\nHer best bet would be to contact the local welfare office and ask them for any assistance or leads that they can provide for low-income housing.\n\nGood luck!

Now yours is a typical Indian case. You are unable to decide if you want to give her divorce or not. As far kids are concerned you have to explain them what you are looking forward i.e. divorce from their mother. How good are your kids relation with their mother this is also important to see. after your divorce who will keep the  kids i.e their custody has also to be decided. After or even during the pend ency of the divorce/judicial separation petition you will have to provide your wife & kids with maintenance the amount as decided by the court. These are all the points which are related to the matrimonial disputes. Even though you are not having any physical relation since 8 years & you can take it as a ground of desertion along with cruelty but this will allow you with judicial separation under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 & you have to wait for 1year after getting the decree of judicial separation to apply for decree of divorce. All these procedures will take many years by the time you ultimately get divorce you will be crossing 50years of your life. Keep all these things in mind before you take any action.

Firstly, have you thought about how your girlfriend thinks about all of this? It is her house and her daughter after all. You have been invited to stay with them, and you accepted. Accepting her daughter is part of that agreement.\n\nSo if you really love your girlfriend, are you going to let her daughter walk all over you like that? I'm not telling you to lay down and take it from her, but is there no way you can compromise? You have come into her space after all, and she is obviously threatened by it. You aren't her father so you can't tell her what to do, and at the same time you have no say as to whether her mother chooses to make her pay rent or not - you get your say if you're asked. Sure you can suggest things, but be prepared to back them up with logical and reasonable arguments, and try to be fair at all times. No one ever said this was going to be easy. \n\nIf you really want to be with your girlfriend, you have to be prepared to accept her daughter. Maybe speak to your girlfriend when her daughter isn't around and explain how you feel? She might be able to say something to her daughter. If not, you just have to grin and bare it because these things take time.

you always do, but you can get it reduced since she has no actual physical custody of your kid. Talk to your lawyer, because I think you may have to ask for custody to prove you are not just being a scum bag

First of all, and unfortunately or fortunately for you, because your child is 12 they can decide where they want to live. At least in the state of Washington they can. It may be different where you live. Unless there are circumstances where there is abuse or neglect, though, you may have a hard time depending on where you are and what the laws are.\nThe first thing I would do is to contact your local Department of Social & Health Services and speak with someone there about what your rights are and can be done or not done for you based on your income. It's quite possible that if your income is lower they could provide you with financial help. However, you should be aware that if you're in need of financial help and your ex-husband is not, it's going to make your situation harder as he can financially support her and you can't. \nCall those people though, it's a start and if nothing else they can lead you in the right direction.\nGood Luck!
