soc001007 sugested I could get a divorce for around £300.00 by getting the papers from the court and that if Jennifer was willing to sign to say she had deserted me it would go through fairly easily, but she has said she does not want to divorce at the moment!
I did make it clear to her I would be sending no money to her, but she must be hoping she can claim somehow or I would have thought she would welcome the divorce.

Hi all,
To add to the divorce issue, I have just found this on a divorce website:
What are the grounds for a divorce?
Irretrievable breakdown of marriage is the only grounds for divorce. You must prove irretrievable breakdown in one of five different ways. These are:
- adultery
- unreasonable behavior (often described as cruelty)
- desertion for two years
- separation for two years where the other party consents
- separation for five years (no consent needed)

So wth the fact that she left me does it seem I have to wait untill she has been gone two years?
If I wantd to divorce now does that mean it woud have to be "unreasonable behavior" and it would need a court case that brought everything out in the open? this sounds as if it could get expensive?
