    In a 7 year relationship with a man who has MS, fortunately we had three beautiful children in that time and I am a stay at home carer for two of the children whilst working part time. Unfortunately the relationship has not been great for a long time, whether its due to the MS or just ignorance on his part we have not shared a hug, kiss, kind word in over 3 years now. He is a hard man to get along with and always angry with the world. No fun, no excitement, no relationship. I have had plenty of conversation where the problems and unhappiness has been laid out and he never attempts to improve our relationship. So for obvious reasons, I would like to part ways and start a fresh life. I am still only in my early 30s so I and my kids have a lot of life left to live and do not need to be put down and punished for a disease that we did not cause and he refuses to seek treatment for.


    Where it gets complicated and hence my question is we have a house together and I dont think he would willingly part ways or come to an agreement around the house. He knows he has me over a barrell financially when it comes to paying the mortgage? Have any of you had a similar situation and found a fair resolution for all involved or can help me approach this split in way that doesnt see either him or me in a terrible financial situation.

    It's a difficult situation for sure. You might want to ask a moderator to move the thread to the Personal Issues forum or the Separation / Divorce forum for a wider response. I don't think there are simple answers to these things - you both probably have some rights to some of the property.

    Is their much equity in the house at present (house value less outstanding mortgage balance)?
