    but if you want to know the truth yes I am bored of him...I am bored of him not listening to a word I say, bored of his selfishness and moodiness, bored of him being so useless with money and spending so much of the little we have on himself, bored of him being so critical of everything I say and do, bored of having to drag him out of bed every morning like he was one of my kids, bored of him ruining every social occasion and holiday by drinking too much, bored of his negativity...do I need to go on?

    And this is the man you think is going to keep being nice to you and helping out with the kids, paying his way, etc?

    You didn't have to explain your marriage difficulties at all, but now that you have, I would feel even more inclined to suggest you get proper legal advice!

    I hope it all works out.

    he doesnt need to be nice to me, his commitment to he kids is not in question and no, I dont expect him to pay his way at all. I dont want any maintainence.

    My partner/girlfriend and I are separating after many years together. The house/mortgage is solely in my name. I pay the mortgage and we have never married. We have one child together. What rights does she have with regards to 'my' house ?

    Children need a roof over their heads and it's both of your responsibilities to provide one. You need to reach a reasonable compromise with your soon-to-be-ex partner

    the children will have 2 roofs ( rooves?) over their heads...mine and his. I am well aware of my responibilities towards my children...it is my responibilities towards my husband that I need help with!

    I didnt realise that people would be so judgemental.

    This is the internet - of course people will be judgemental! :)

    Free advice - pick a username that cannot be miscontrued or lead to any reaction and you'll find people will stick to the question without making judgements. Simples!

    My post was in response to Rich22's question. Which I realise now I should have quoted to avoid confusion. Apologies.
