A.G - oh rite, so, people get married nowadays if they know things are not going to work out, are u just dumb, or do you have brain damage! i hope that someday when u go through crap, you dont come across an unsympathetic bast*rd such as yourself to criticize you!

asmoothri - i'm a bit worried cause we've known for several weeks now that we CAN'T live together, he's got anger management issues...and i'm not exactly the docile type either, so, it turns out we bring out the worst in each other (sadly, we do care about each other though, in moments of calm we are able to rationalize and conclude this). we both feel we just want OUT rather than let this whole thing drag on. i am being probably paranoid around the op... and therefore i will renew my will... (i plan to leave him something but the majority for my sister)

You can't divorce until you've been married for a year, but you could file a petition for a judicial separation. The procedure is the same as a divorce & you'd have to go thru' it all over again in 7 months, thereby doubling the costs. Within the j.s. proceedings you could sort out your finances by lodging a consent order. Make a will now, and specify the reason for your not leaving anything to your husband.

Yes in the UK it is one year, why not just live separately until that time has past? You don't need to be living in the same house for a year. If someone has committed adultery then you can divorce after 1 year, or if the person has behaved unreasonably you must provide 5 examples of this. Other than that is is 2 years separation with consent (and you must live apart for at least 6 months before applying this way) or 5 years without consent.

If you are that worried about dieing why don't you go to a solicitor write a will and cut them out of any inheritance. Sorry to sound cold but it would stand up in court. On the divorce side a year isn't as long as you think, let face it you only have another 7 months to go now.

How sad. Think 1year. Try to contact citizens advice and have it all in place as i think you can have it void if its under that time But at least you where both sensible to have prenuptial agreement drawn up so this makes it a lot easy. Try not to stress to much as the important thing is to get better. after your op .. ..

With prenupt in place you have everything that you need and a will is probably be best for the purpose of what you dread,yet he could fight a will if he so wishes.
You are only going in for an operation,and fear the worse,which is natural.
But you have no need to place divorce papers,as you both have a prenupt,you can be mature and agree to separate anytime,and divorce mutually, as you both agree to it.

Perhaps not. A judicial separation might be in order. Unless he is cruel, or has flagrantly cheated on you, and you can prove such.

the only thing i know is that if you try to get divorced before the two year period of separation they like you to appoint blame, mud sling. so i waited till after the two year separation....
good luck, i hope your op goes well.
