I had enough with my husband and had been living in separate rooms for the past 6 months. During this separation time, I felt somewhat happier and felt safer to sleep. However, whenever he's home, I get very jumpy and hope that he doesn't come knocking at my bedroom door. (For past 7 years had not been contributing to household, coming home in wee hours with no notification, drinking & hurling crude & abusive every now and then even infront of the kid).
I got a son but my husband refuse to let him sleep over with me. But I still take care of my boy daily routinue. Getting him ready for school, schoolwork & preparing him for sleep.
So this had drove me to desperation and in need of divorce but he refused.

Are you living in the U.S.? You should be able to get a divorce regardless of whether he wants one.

> Should I seek divorce?
Yes, if all of what you wrote is true then you should.
> What is the cost involved in Divorce?
You need to ask yourself what the emotional cost is of NOT getting a divorce. Read below...
>(For past 7 years had not been contributing to household
That's not a good thing. But at least that is something you could work on. It's the next thing I wonder about.
> coming home in wee hours with no notification
I assume this is not because he works a late night shift? More than likely, this is an indication that he's running around and might give you a disease if you two have sexual contact.
> drinking & hurling crude & abusive every now and then even infront of the kid).
So where's the good part??? I guess I'm having trouble understanding why you're asking if you should seek a divorce. Unless there is something really fantastic about this guy that offsets all this stuff you've told us, I can't imagine any good reason to stay with him.
Go get counseling. Talk to an attorney. And maybe in that order.
Good luck.

It relies upon on in case you have attorneys or no longer and in case you are able to the two agree on each and everything. I even have been divorced two times, and neither time value me over $500 because of the fact no person had a lawyer, we agreed on who have been given what, and there grow to be no actual combat. I left the two marriages with what i will in with and extremely few issues that the place accrued during the marriage.

I think it is up to you if you want a divorce. Basically the cost of divorce is the lawyer fees, the sale of housing ( if both of you are not staying with your parents) and alot of other. If both of you are going to fight for the custody of your child, there is another cost incurred.

1. Get your son and LEAVE.
2. Get a lawyer. Immediately.
I have the sense you are in danger of abuse - not only the emotional abuse you describe, but separating you from the child is NOT his right to do.
