Its not granted automatically it has to be applied for by the person who started divorce proceedings....It has no bearing on whether the financials have been sorted but solicitors will not apply for it until a consent order is in place.I did my own divorce and got the absolute because I applied for it no one questioned the fact that there was consent order in place

That not true either.....

the respondent can also apply for the decree absolute 3 months 6 weeks and 1 day from the date of the nisi.

Yeah right. She's so determined to have "quality time" with her children she doesn't hesitate to send them off three nights a week to sleep in the house of their father's girlfriend who has no room for them but gives up her own children's beds or her own bed and sleeps on the floor in order to ensure this "quality time". In fact, your boyfriend's wife is the only person in this whole set-up who gets to sleep in her own bed every night. It's absurd!

You're being incredibly, unbelievably, humiliatingly accommodating to this married man, who keeps on not getting divorced and not marrying you. Why on earth do you want to marry a man who treats you like this?

Ten to one he's still hoping to get back with his wife.

No he is not hoping to get back with his wife, nor does he have anyone else! You have made me think by saying that she is the only one who gets to sleep in her own bed every night - that is very true now you come to think about it!

Right. All the problems are down to his wife and he is just an innocent victim of both his wife (who forces him to make inadequate arrangements for his children's visits) and also of the courts, who inexplicably won't let him get divorced and marry you. Have it your way.

Good luck, OP. You sound like a nice person. I hope it works out for you in the end.

BARGAINHUNTER!

So he stays at your house when he has his children (3 nights a week?). Does he stay over sometimes when he dosen't have them as well? Sounds to me as if you are actually living together!
